At the gym Thinkstock Working out is serious business, but some days the hardest part of the workout is forcing your sorry butt into the gym. That's why it's good to be familiar with the guys at your gym. You can keep each other accountable, and a commitment like physical fitness is a rock-solid foundation for a positive friendship. Even if you aren't working out together, seeing a familiar face around the free weights can serve as a reminder that your fitness journey is a game of years, and can provide a subtle push to keep putting in the hours and the reps. Comparing weights, discussing the benefits of various exercises or even asking for a quick spot on a difficult lift are all ways to mix a little male bonding in with your personal commitment to getting fit.

Tokyo stocks ended 1.66 percent higher on Friday -- reversing earlier losses following a slump on Wall Street -- as dollar-buying pushed down the yen, giving a boost to exporters.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 index gained 215.55 points to 13,230.13 while the Topix index of all first-section shares was 0.70 percent, or 7.59 points, higher at 1,099.40.
Japan's premier bourse had lost more than two percent in the first few minutes as dealers took a cue from the biggest one-day fall of the year for the Dow on Wall Street.
Worries over a likely end to the Federal Reserve's hefty stimulus measures this year and poor Chinese manufacturing data sent investors running for cover.
But with an end to the US stimulus meaning there will be fewer dollars in the financial system, demand for the greenback picked up, providing upward momentum for equities.
In afternoon forex trade the dollar bought 97.80 yen, compared with 97.27 yen in New York late Thursday.
A weaker yen helps Japanese exporters as it makes their products cheaper overseas, while a strong yen deteriorates their repatriated profits.
"The market has the look of selling having been exhausted," an equity trading director at a foreign brokerage told Dow Jones Newswires.
"Participation levels seem to show that many unidirectional traders who had been shorting the yen and going long on Nikkei futures have cleared out now, which should allow the market to find its footing."
US stocks plunged Thursday, extending one percent losses Wednesday after Fed chief Ben Bernanke said it could begin pulling back its $85 billion-a-month bond-buying late this year and wind it up by mid-2014.
On Wall Street the Dow lost nearly 354 points, or 2.3 percent -- its largest points fall since November 9, 2011. European bourses also fell sharply.
The Tokyo bourse has suffered weeks of volatility since hitting a five-year high last month.
As Japan heads into the final month before July 21 upper house elections investors can expect even more market-friendly rhetoric from the government, said an equity trading director at a foreign brokerage.
The polls are key for Prime Minister Shinzo Abe who is trying to solidify his power base following victory in the lower house last December.
Sony was down 0.54 percent at 2,002 yen a day after its chief executive said the company's board was studying a proposed plan to spin off part of its profitable entertainment arm.
Telecom firm SoftBank, which has offered to buy US wireless carrier Sprint Nextel for $21.6 billion, rose 1.83 percent to 5,560 yen.

Allan Steel (60) said the more information available for
genealogists the easier it was to create a family tree.
''I know what it's like when you are trying to find a
headstone for someone in a town that you can't get to. If
someone in Auckland wants to get a photo of a plaque of his
grandfather in Andersons Bay, then I'm making it available.''
He had photographed 5800 graves and plaques of 6100
servicemen and women in Dunedin cemeteries since last
November. About 300 of the 6100 names were from memorials of
those buried overseas or those who died on the way to war and
were buried at sea, he said.
The Dunedin City Council website had a record of those buried
in council cemeteries but did not record the information on
memorial plaques, he said.
''But there's no official records of the sons at the
council,'' Mr Steel said.
The photo would help genealogists learn of the three fallen
men, he said.
But the database contained mostly those who served, returned
and died in New Zealand, such as his father, James Allan
Steel, who served in the Middle East between 1941 and 1943
and was buried in Andersons Bay Cemetery in 1962.
Mr Steel photographed the graves and plaques on Sunday
mornings and returned home to match the names of the
servicemen and women with cemetery records and the records of
the units in which they had served, and then transcribed them
into a spreadsheet.
He had taken all the photos for the project and was inputting
the data, he said. When the spreadsheet was complete, he
would send it to several museums and would not be updating
the project with more photos, he said.
''I'm not guaranteeing I've found them all, but I've made as
good as an attempt as I can.''
The project was a follow-on from another he completed last
year, in which he photographed all the 8100 graves and
plaques in 18 Otago cemeteries and transcribed the
information to a spreadsheet to to provide back-up in the
event of a natural disaster destroying the sites.

Editorial Reviews
-Atul Gawande, author of The Checklist Manifesto, Better, and Complications
"No one in America has thought more -- and done more -- about patient safety than Dr. Pronovost. Safe Patients, Smart Hospitals is the right prescription for American health care."
-Sherrod Brown, United States Senator (Ohio)
"Dr. Pronovost and Mr. Vohr offer a constructive and compelling case for patient safety and improving health care quality in the United States. Health providers and policy makers would benefit greatly from reading this book."
-Tom Daschle, former Senator and author of Critical: What We Can Do about the Health-Care Crisis
"Both riveting and important.... Safe Patients, Smart Hospitals gives an excellent overview of changes in hospital practice which, when instituted, profoundly affect rates of serious medical complications and death. A pioneer in the field of patient safety, [Peter Pronovost] has radically altered how modern medicine is practiced."
-Kay Redfield Jamison, Ph. D., author of An Unquiet Mind and Nothing Was the Same
"A must read for doctors, nurses, administrators and especially the public. Patient safety can only be achieved by everyone being informed and asking questions when...the train is [headed] off the track."
-Edward D. Miller, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Johns Hopkins Medicine, Dean of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and and vice president for medicine of The Johns Hopkins University
"A wonderful, beautifully written book-if every hospital in the country read it and followed Peter's advice, I believe there would be fewer deaths from medical efforts and we would all benefit. Dr. Pronovost is a true hero, both to many in the healthcare industry and patients as well. Because of his hard work, passion, and brilliance, Peter has made hospitals around the world safer for us all. Safe Patients, Smart Hospitals is a true testament that one person can make a difference."
-Sorrel King, patient safety advocate and author of Josie's Story
"Safe Patients, Smart Hospitals reminds us how great change can be wrought by one person with the courage to do the right thing. Dr. Pronovost's account tells the thrilling story about how--not so long ago--sloppiness and medical arrogance made even the best American hospitals perilous places to spend the night. His remedy: something simple, elegant, convincing."
-Jean McGarry, professor at The Writing Seminars, Johns Hopkins University and author of seven books of fiction
"Peter Pronovost is a true visionary, whose simple checklist will save many lives and highlight the fact that the simplest answer is often the best, a must- read for all healthcare workers."
-Patrick Perry, M.P.H, Executive Editor, The Saturday Evening Post
"Captivating and readable, this book takes a hard, honest look at the truth about toxic hospital cultures and the need for addressing culture, teamwork and cooperation. The compelling stories Peter shares illustrate the transformation that occurs when institutions address these issues. I also think the emphasis on improving work environments and respect among all professions involved in patient care clearly impacts nurses' satisfaction, retention, and the nursing shortage in hospitals."
-Martha N. Hill, PhD, RN, Dean and Professor of Nursing, Medicine and Public Health at Johns Hopkins University
"A riveting account right from the first page... Safe Patients, Smart Hospitals is a must read for everyone in healthcare including consumers. The authors have covered particularly well the perspectives and challenges of nurses in keeping patients safe. The book is a "good read" for us all."
-Linda H. Aiken, Ph.D., The Claire M. Fagin Leadership Professor of Nursing and Professor of Sociology, Director, Center for Health Outcomes and Policy Research; University of Pennsylvania
"Dr. Peter Pronovost was first to recognize checklists have power to save lives and save money. We've heard about Dr. Pronovost's checklists from learned journals and from the TV show 'ER. His innovative ideas promote low cost, low tech solutions that have a high impact."
-Barbara Mikulski, US Senator (Maryland)
"Having been at Hopkins for over three decades, I have been privileged to witness first- hand enormous advances in patient safety, largely through the efforts of Dr. Peter Pronovost. Through this book, the authors are making life- saving knowledge widely available not only to healthcare providers, but to patients and their loved ones. This book is a long overdue and welcome addition to the body of critically important medical information and it will save lives."
-Benjamin S. Carson, Sr., M.D., Professor of Neurological Surgery, Oncology, Plastic Surgery, and Pediatrics
"Dr. Pronovost's engaging book describes his journey to galvanize the healthcare community to eliminate bloodstream infections. It is an excellent case study in leadership, and should be read by anyone trying to lead a change effort."
-Nolan D. Archibald, Chairman of the Board, President & Chief Executive Officer, The Black & Decker Corporation --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

As hard as it may be to believe in a country as advanced as the United States, thousands of people die each year from preventable medical mistakes. This book addresses why this happens and what can be done to save many of these people. Dr. Pronovost begins with the tragic story of 18-month-old Josie King, who was accidentally scalded at home and developed second degree burns. She acquired an all-too-common bacterial infection from a central line catheter while in the hospital, and then she got a secondary infection when the antibiotics administered to control the original infection killed helpful bacteria in her digestive system. Then there was sepsis and dehydration, but even all of this would not have killed the young girl were it not for lack of sufficient coordination and cooperation among the medical staff treating her. Just one chapter into this book you are already grieving, and you want to know more. By the way, if the term "central line catheter infection" sounds familiar, Dr. Gawande writes extensively about this problem in his book (and he characterizes Dr. Pronovost's book as a "tough-minded and revealing story of a leading doctor's crusade against medical harm").
It turns out that Dr. Pronovost's own father died in part because his cancer was not correctly characterized early enough--so Dr. P. finally enlists in the army of reformers.Read more ›
Overall it is estimated that patients receive barely 50% of recommended therapies and only about 30% of those are administered as recommended. This despite the U.S. spending more on health care than any other developed nation, while leaving some 40 million uncovered by insurance, and medical costs being a major cause of personal bankruptcy. The result of medical errors, Dr. Pronovost estimates, is that hundreds of thousands needlessly die each year. He became focused on quality improvement after a young patient died in his hospital due to a catheter-caused infection. Pronovost then led a team effort that first created a five-step checklist distilled from a 120-page CDC set of catheter placement guidelines and underlying rationale. This improved protocol compliance to 38%. Compliance was limited partly due to difficulty finding needed supplies.Read more ›
That being said, there is a lot of good stuff here that applies equally well to safety, efficiency, and/or customer satisfaction in most fields, not just hospital care. The principles are the same, although different people express them differently. Pronovost's program has two aspects, TRIP and CUSP. Translating Research into Practice (TRIP) is the problem-solving part. It involves the checklists and other changes to practices, such as the simple idea of storing items often used together in the same cabinet and putting them close to the places where they are used, thereby both saving time and making it less likely that a busy provider will "not bother" with a particular safety item because it is too much trouble to go get it. Although the checklists are the item that grabbed attention, the other aspect, looking at an organization's specific procedures and making improvements, is also a component of CUSP.Read more ›

Have you ever covered for a friend? Under what circumstances do you think that kind of loyalty is okay?
When my friend dared me to do something I got hurt. His mom got mad at him and said, " I told you to not dare eny one to do somthing dangos." I said," He didn't dare me. I just did it for fun." The dangerous fun thing I did was duck tape a skateboard to the bottom of a sled, going down a hill, and jumping three recycling bins. I've done it again because it was a lot of fun! I think it's okay to cover for someone when the event isn't that bad. I always cover for friends.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Although many units of Winn-Dixie Stores carry specialty items for Hispanic shoppers, a retooled store here signals that the chain is experimenting with a major commitment to that market in its fresh-foods departments.

Historical Traveler Reviews Doctors Cave Beach Hotel Montego Bay
Very clean room...Hotel does need updating
This was my second stay here, and as usual I had a very good time (I not only recommend it to my friends, I take them with me!!). If you're looking for a high-class resort, this is not it... but you're also not paying for a high-class resort either! I met people on this trip that have been returning to this hotel for the last 6 to 20 years!! I was a little disappointed that Kenny is no longer the bartender... but does fill in occassionally. Our room was kept very clean, and all hotel staff was very friendly and accomodating. Brenda, at the front desk, was very nice, as well as Carlene (in the restaurant). The hotel does need some overall updating (our a/c worked... but looked like it had been in the room since 1970!) I would definitely stay here again, but I would like to see some updates to the property (which I left in my comments for the manager). Yes, generally the rooms around the pool are a little noisier, but there are plenty of rooms around the garden in which you don't hear a thing! Please e-mail me if you have any questions about the property (such as which rooms would be QUIETER if that is what you're looking for!) I'd be happy to give you any insight I have.
Avoid id possible
From the indifferent staff to the blaring "hip hop" through the lobby and around the pool....the ants on the dirty bedroom floor was the last straw. A request to have the floor cleaned fell on deaf ears. I found it insulting to have $53usd billed to my credit card for the use of the room safe - then $50 credit given upon check out. No trust or respect ... or is that jsut Montego Bay? I won't be going back!!
Make your own fun
We had a wonderful time in Montego Bay area. The hotel staff were friendly and tried hard to accommodate their guests. Brenda and Artia were very, very nice and warm and worked hard to make all of us happy.
The hotel does need some fixing up but its relatively clean. Some of the rooms are very small so call the hotel directly to make sure of what you are getting. I didn't see any bugs or things of that nature.
Just don't get your expections too high ...just know that its a fairly clean bed for the night and you are pretty secure.
The breakfast and dinner menu and quality needs great improvement too.
I would not recommend eating at the hotel. Instead, go down the street to the Pelican restauranat for a traditional Jamaican breakfast, lunch and/or dinner. The food, service, price there is excellent.
Doctors Cave beach does charge for entry onto the beach. Its a small fee but its clean and more family oriented. No topless bathing there...
couldn't the avoid the tan lines this time. Go to Negril too the water is beautiful.
Doctors Cave Beach Hotel
My family stayed at Doctors CaveBeach Hotel in September/October 2003- we had a fabulous time! The hotel was so unique-hand painted murals & wonderful outdoor areas. The food was by far the best in Mo Bay. The hotel staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. We had such a grand time that we keep in touch with the staff regularly & are currently workingon a quick trip to go see them. They are our new extended family!
The Worst Place on Earth
It was my first trip to beautiful Jamaica and I made the stupid mistake of staying at this God awful place. I would not ever recommend it to any of my friends. The staff was horrible, the room was laughable and the food was anything short of edible. You would be better off sleeping on the beach. At least it would be clean.
OK...but don't expect much
I travel occassionally to Jamaica on business and this means the odd night or 2 in MoBay before I have to drag myself to Kingston. I tried Doctors Cave in Oct 2003 because I wanted to be in town rather than being a single guy in an all inclusive couples resort outisde the city.
My main comment is simply that you get hat you pay for. Dr's Cave is clean and cheap and that's about all to say for it. No beach access.
The "world famous Dr's Cave Beach" across the road is overrated. I hardly saw anybody else at the hotel, so no atmosphere either....but I did enjoy being in MoBay and eating in Margaritaville
It was cool
doctors cave is perfect for the lone traveller prices are good ,staff friendly and the food at breakfast was really nice would stay again without a doubt margaret sharpe
Nothing special
Stayed here for a week. The food was overpriced and the rooms weren't terribly clean, especially for the price. The front desk staff were a little rude, but the security guards were nice enough. Excellent location.
Clean, Friendly & Reasonably Priced
A friend recommended the Doctors Cave Beach Hotel to me. Well once again my well-traveled friend came through for me. Doctors Cave was just what I was looking for which was a clean, casual hotel at a reasonable price. I wanted to do some exploring around the island, so an all-inclusive hotel package was not for me. The hotel is very centrally located in Montego Bay, which is a great base as many attractions are relatively close, Negril is to the West and Ocho Rios to the East. There are alot of shops, restaurants and nightlife within close walking distance. The hotel has personality! I found the staff to be extremely courteous and the facilities to adequate. The pool bar is a great place to work on the tan during the day and later in the evening offered some of the best music of the trip. The rooms are bright, clean and spacious. Doctors Cave Beach Hotel certainly met my needs and I?ll return.
Doctor's Cave Beach Hotel: On the Main Drag
Doctors Cave Beach Hotel is a great place to stay because
it's on the "main drag" of Montego Bay.
Most of the hotels, shops, restaurants, etc. are on this street. The Hotel has traditional rooms and
suites in the front area, and in the back has rooms with a kitchenette.
You'll find great ocean views in the front but in the back you'll have more privacy. A downside is that you have to walk across the street to get to the beach.You can't just walk out of the hotel and onto the beach, like you be able to do with the hotels that are right across the street. It's
also a public beach, so all kinds of high brow and low brow people are there. This is a safe area, but out on the street,you will meet the usual locals who want to sell you something. I've stayed here about three out of the
five times that I have been to Jamaica. It's reasonably priced, and close to everything. I don't recall there being an on site restaurant, but there's plenty of places to eat in the vincinity. A good one to check out is the Toby Inn. Get a local taxi driver to take you "out in the country." You will see the real Jamaica there. Stop in a shanty store out in the middle of no where, talk with the local country people, and have a Red Stripe beer (the true Jamaica beer), and soak up the lush surroundings. Then come back to Doctor's Cave Beach Hotel, relax on the balcony, and catch a view of a Jamaican sunset. What more could you want?

Hah. Love the subtext on this one.
love the swipe at venom being the reason spider man three was a mess. though never thought josh would be a carnage guy.
Hehe, Venom was one of the few good parts about Spider-Man 3.
No, Venom was pretty bad. But yeah, that movie had way worse problems.
Not enough Venom was the problem (or one of the problems)
Too much symbiote, altogether.
Movie tried to stuff too much into it… I still maintain that if Spider-Man took a page out of Harry Potter and filmed 3 focusing on Sandman with an undercurrent of the suit slowly taking over Peter and ending with Peter ripping off the symbiote then ending the movie with it falling on Eddie and a flash of teeth….
Then making 4 a Venom vs Spidey with Harry's redemption being the undercurrent… we'd all look at it in a better light…
As far as the comic goes, this is too true Josh. I been there so much matter of fact that on AfroNerd's site, I had to blog an apology for the ComicShoppe show prior because I let my emotions make me a rambling mess and totally bogarted my co-hosts' time….. Passion vs Reason and Rationality… when it comes to comic/sci-fi talk, it is a very easy line to not only cross but trample upon…
Once again Sean and Brandon, I relate to this so much it's scary….
Haha! "Rick REMINDER" XD
That movie could have cut out a half hour of footage and still not yet gotten to any difficult omissions. Terrible editing, terribly assembled film.
That's a weird use of "wherewithal." It seems like Josh is using it to mean "fortitude," but I always thought it referred to ability with respect to resources, for example, "such and such country lacked the wherewithal to produce WMDs."
SPIDER-MAN 3 was two half-baked movies glued together.
It was almost as mixed up as my metaphor.
"That's a weird use of "wherewithal." It seems like Josh is using it to mean "fortitude," but I always thought it referred to ability with respect to resources"
No, it's the same use, the 'resources' here are just Josh's remaining cognative capabilities.
Great one, guys. You've been doing nicely lately.

BP2 is comparable to just about any other release in its genre — a few stars, a few unknowns, and a variety of techniques.
Too much energy (by the girls) is spent trying to keep direct eye contact with the lens instead of remaining focused on their true knob gobblin' calling. It works well enough when the camera takes a POV stance. Otherwise, the effort looks contrived — as if the pleasure of sucking the big one was secondary to primping and preening.
Then there's the whole "princess" angle itself. Not content to let the title live as a metaphor, the production has each babe literally don a plastic tiara.

Most dividend investors are influenced by the current yield when they enter a particular stock investment. Dividend growth investors are no different either. It is hard to blame either of these groups, as there is no point in a company that strongly raises its dividend payments, yet it might take up to two decades for the yield on cost to reach any meaningful level. Add in to that the fact that a double digit dividend growth could only be supported by a double digit earnings growth only for so long. If the dividend payout ratio was low at the beginning this could extend the strong dividend growth by a few years after earnings growth slows down to a more reasonable level.
Some of the best dividend growth stocks however would always spot a low current yield, coupled with strong dividend growth for many years to come. As some might typically yield 1% or 2 %, they would be completely ignored by most investors. The trick here is that a company that yields 2% today and raises its dividend by 12% every year would double your yield on cost in just 6 years. In most cases such companies stock prices also tend to follow the changes in the dividend payment, which could lead to strong capital gains over time. Thus, if the stock increased distributions by 12%, it is very likely that the stock price might increase by about 12% as well. This leaves the dividend yield unchanged at 2%, which doesn't matter much for original investors, who purchased the stock 6 years earlier.
In my experience as a dividend investor I have always implemented a minimum yield criterion of between 2% to 3% when screening for dividend growth stocks. I implemented this control in order to protect myself in the event that the company I am heavily invested in stops raising distributions. That way I could at least receive some return on my investment until I try to unload my position above my breakeven price.
Looking back at the best dividend growth stories of Wal-Mart (WMT) and McDonald's (MCD) however, my minimum criteria would have prevented me from getting aboard on these success stories. Other investors who are currently seeking high current income might also have missed out on these plays, which are delivering double-digit yields on cost for anyone who purchased Wal-Mart of McDonald's in the 1980s.
I recently came out with a way to tweak my entry criteria of 3% minimum initial yield by grouping higher yielding and lower yielding investments with my purchase. At the end of the date, one could easily create a dividend portfolio which consists both of high yielders with slow to no dividend growth and low dividend yielders, which have the potential for strong dividend growth. If one manages to allocate the varying dividend components in their portfolio carefully, they would be able to achieve a target initial yield on cost for their stock holdings as a whole.
For example I recently added to my position in Wal-Mart Stores (WMT), which I consider of the best run companies in USA, with a strong position in the retail market and good opportunities for growth. The low current yield of 2.20% however was too low in comparison to the 3% entry criteria I apply for new and existing investments. I do believe however that the strong dividend growth would more than compensate for the low current yield, and I see the yield on cost on an investment in Wal-Mart today doubling to 4.5%-5% by the end of the next decade. That's why I added the high dividend stock AT&T (T) to my portfolio. For every two shares of Wal-Mart (WMT) stock, I bought one share of AT&T (T). At the current prices this mix yields 3% right now.
I view AT&T (T) as a slow grower, which might end up cutting distributions sometime in the future due to its high payout and stagnant earnings in the highly competitive telecom market. The strong dividend growth at Wal-Mart (WMT) however should more than compensate for any potential dividend cuts at AT&T (T). If AT&T (T) cuts its dividends by 50% to 82cents/share, but Wal-Mart (WMT) managed to raise its distributions by 36%, my total dividend income would be unchanged. I believe that Wal-Mart (WMT) would be able to raise distributions by 36% over the next 3-4 years, assuming that it follows the most recent path of dividend growth.
Other stocks that I could use in dividend grouping for income could be high yielding triple net lease real estate investment trust Realty Income (O) or pipeline operator Kinder Morgan (KMP).

Dr. Laura La Joie, owner of Joy of Life Chiropractic clinic, overheard a set of parents telling their kids that they were going kite surfing. Then they asked the kids, What are you guys doing?
Most likely, spending time indoors, La Joie mused.
She noted that kids are sitting more than they did 20 years ago.
How many kids these days ride a bike to their friends, skate, or walk places?
Additionally, in the summer, parents reward their kids with free time, and for many of those kids, their choice is to be inside.
On the computer, playing X-box, watching Netflix.
While she understands the digital draw, she encourages families to be intentional with their extra time.
Summer is the opportunity to get kids off their chairs and move to improve their balance and the function of their body, she said.
A key focus of Joy of Life Chiropractic is family wellness.
And, while many kids do have too much screen time, they are also at various sports camps in the summer.
Young athletes are calling on their bodies to do a lot of different activities.
She says its important for kids to have a chiropractic performance evaluation and risk assessment. Through this, she is able to identify issues before they become a problem.
La Joie noted that her practice is for all ages.
I see kids from four days old to 98 days old.

Buying a new puppy is a major endeavor. Choosing a breeder is a very important decision and there are numerous things that you can do as the new pet owner to ensure that youre choosing an ethical breeder. This increases the chances that you will purchase a healthy puppy.
First, ensure that the breeder performs all the requisite health testing recommended for your breed. Each breed has different health conditions that affect it, some of which can be tested for.
The breeder should encourage you to come visit their kennel, to see the dogs temperament and the environment in which the puppies are raised. The breeder should engage in active socialization practices starting at birth and continuing through weaning.
The breeder should spend a great deal of time interviewing you. This often includes completing a questionnaire, in order to try to match each puppy with the best owner, based on its temperament and the activity level that the puppy will have.
Breeders should do temperament testing, have health exams, deworm and vaccinate the puppies before they go to their new homes. Breeders should also make themselves available to the new owners for the life of the petto answer questions, assist with problems and ensure that if the puppy or adult dog needs to be surrendered for any reason, that it will go to an appropriate home and not end up in a shelter.

If youre buying a house, you probably need a loan. And if you want a loan, youre going to need a trustworthy credit score. Read on to learn about five credit errors that can put your dream home permanently out of reach.
Making late payments. Its not exactly shocking to learn that lenders expect to be repaid on time. But regardless of your overall financial situation, late payments can lower your credit score by up to 30 percent.
Applying for another loan. If youre good enough for one loan, a second should be no problem, right? Wrong. Creditors see more loans as a sign that you may default soon. If youre already buying a home, take a pass on that new car.
Maxing out credit cards. Another classic sign of an irresponsible borrower, many banks may penalize you for making the minimum payment on your credit card bills, no matter how timely you are.
Disputing credit report items. Its usually a good idea to correct errors on your credit report, as it may raise your score. But its crucial that you do so before applying for a loan, otherwise, the banks may think youre gaming the system.
Having no credit history. Shakespeare advised neither a borrower nor a lender be, but unfortunately most lenders demand a reputable credit history. Paying for groceries and gas with a credit card is a good way to build up a bona fide history.

If you want to play like the pros, you need to wear the same specialized equipment that keeps professional athletes safe and performing at their peak.
But heres a hintIm not talking about their shoes or jerseys. Im talking about mouthguards.
Thats why Wilson Orthodontics has provided free custom mouthguards to student athletes for the past 14 years. This year, well distribute roughly 500 protectors to football and lacrosse athletes in Sherwood, Newberg and the surrounding communities.
But mouthguards are important for athletes in every sport. So heres a breakdown that will help you choose the best option.
Ready Made. A ready made (or stock) mouthguard is fine, especially if practice is in 20 minutes. But theyre the least safe, least effective and least preferred option. In your mouth, one size really doesnt fit all.
Mouth Formed. Boil and bite mouthguards are probably the most common out there. When heated in boiling water, they become pliable, allowing you to bite down and mold them. Unfortunately, the process isnt perfect, and these still tend to shift during play.
Custom Made. Hands down, this is the best option. At Wilson Orthodontics, we can make a custom molded mouthguard, and can tailor your mouthguard to your dental history and chosen sport. These are the safest option, and its what the pros use too.

The Ford Mustang is Americas original pony car, and consumers have long admired the iconic muscle machine for its dynamic styling, elegant chassis and powerful engine options.
None of that has changedbut the 2016 Ford Mustang now comes with more standard features, bold color options and a range of hands-free technologies.
One big change is the return of hood vent-integrated secondary turn signals. Fans are calling it a throwback from Mustangs history, and this heritage feature now comes standard for buyers of the 2016 Mustang GT.
Ford also unveiled a few new color schemes, including over-the-top racing stripes and jet black roof paneling.
When it comes to the engine, the 3.7-liter V6, 2.3-liter EcoBoost and 5-liter V8 all provide the force and fire necessary to conquer the open road. That being said, keeping up with technological change has become (almost) as important as whats under the hood, and Ford aficionados have plenty to look forward to on that front.
Engineers have been touting SYNC 3s voice recognition system, as well as the smartphone-like touchscreen and graphic interface.
Its also worth noting that the Mustang is one of Fords safest cars ever, earning five-star ratings for frontal, side and rollover collisions. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave the Mustang a five-star crash test rating overall.
The 2016 Ford Mustang is available now at Canby Ford. Stop by today to learn more.

Student athletic programs are changing. The multi-sport student athleteonce a common sight on primary and secondary schoolyardsis being replaced by single-sport adolescent athletes.
More kids are specializing in one sport at an earlier age, and with longer seasons.
Though their dedication and hard work are to be applauded, these kids are putting themselves at increased risk for repetitive strain, fractures and other debilitating injuries, according to Wilsonville chiropractor Dr. Laura LaJoie.
The owner of Joy of Life Chiropractic says the shift from multi- to single-sport athletics reduces the amount of variety in students exercises and training programs. It also creates less balanced physical development.
A multi-sport athlete may run track and play basketball, soccer or tennis. In contrast, the disciplined single-sport athlete performs the same actions over and over, honing their skills but also increasing their risk.
To keep your child healthy, Dr. LaJoie recommends scheduling an immediate biomechanical evaluation to check for potential imbalances, trouble spotsand develop solutions.
Summer is the perfect time to come in and learn about our personalized strength and conditioning programs, says Dr. LaJoie. We can help your athlete maintain their strength and flexibility, recover from a previous injury and minimize their risk for future injuries.
Joy of Life Chiropractic is dedicated to providing optimal health to everyone, regardless of age or stage. So be healthy by choice, not by chance, and schedule a visit at Joy of Life Chiropractic today.

The home inspection is a crucial part of the house-buying process, but how you react to whats uncovered can mean the difference between big savings, and a big headache. Use these bargaining table tips to ensure you get the best deal.
Tour problem spots. Any home inspection agent will offer to provide a written or verbal summary of their findings, but if at all possible, ask to be shown the problems in person. Seeing things firsthand will give you a better sense of how serious these trouble areas really are, and improve your bargaining position.
Ask for credit. Once your home inspector has identified potential trouble spots, approach the seller and ask them to deduct the estimated price of these repairs from their asking price. You can put these savings toward the repair costsor use them for something more pressing.
Try for closing costs. Some sellers can be hesitant to cover the cost of repairs, but may relent to paying your closing costs. The fees charged by the lender, title company, land surveyor and local government often cost just as much as the necessary repairs.
Loose lips sink savings. If the seller knows you plan to completely renovate a problem area, theyre far less likely to offer a repair credit or pay for the needed construction themselves. Keep your poker face on, and never discuss your renovation plans within earshot of the seller or their agent.

Fleas, ticks and mites are dreaded in pet-friendly households, and with good reason.
Not only can these bloodsuckers cause itching and skin problems in the short term, they can also transmit more serious diseases. Rashes and inflammation (as well as the associated scratching) increase your pets risk of developing a secondary bacterial infection.
Identifying and preventing fleas, ticks and mites is the key to effective parasite control. Persistent itching, and signs of skin infection (ranging from redness and raised irritation to open sores and bleeding) may indicate the presence of external parasites.
You can treat pet parasites through a number of products, including orally-administered medication, topically-applied products and flea collars. It should be noted that not every product is equally effective, and using the wrong product can be extremely harmful, even fatal, to your pet.
If you arent sure what parasite your pet has, or what the most effective treatment option is, consult your local veterinarian for options.
Remember that parasites can travel from pet to pet and to people within your household; if you discover an infection in one animal, its best to treat the whole herd as potential hosts. Parasite larvae can survive in the atmosphere, in your carpeteven in your pets bed; treating the pets environment is key to preventing reinfection.

Have you heard about the latest DIY (do it yourself) trend? Its dangerous, foolhardyand completely legal.
Its hard to believe, but according to this consumer alert put out by the American Association of Orthodontists, some people are starting to use DIY methods to self treat their crooked or gap teeth.
A quick search online pulls up hundreds of references to these so-called quick fix projects. Some of these solutions use things like rubber bands or dental floss, but the most outrageous involve constructing faux braces out of paper clips, or a retainer out of modeling clay.
Folks, this is crazy. You can cause extensive (and very expensive) damage to your teeth, bone and soft tissue by messing around with dental experiments.
Why? Well, for starters, orthodontists dont just align your teeth based on aesthetics. In fact, the functionality and long-term health of your teeth is our primary concern; style always comes second. Trying to self treat misaligned teeth could very easily result in loss of the supporting tooth root, gum recession or, in the worst case, loss of teeth altogether.
Moreover, orthodontists are uniquely qualified specialists with over 10 years of rigorous education. Were professional, reliable and safe.
So take it from me: dont experiment on your teeth. You get what you pay for, and without the help of a dental professional, you could be causing your teeth serious (if not irreparable) harm.

After a two-year hiatus, the Ford F-150 Raptor is backwith enhanced capabilities and all-new technology that make the 2017 Raptor even more of an off-road powerhouse than ever before.
It only takes a minute inside the cab to understand why the F-150 Raptor is considered to have the DNA of a Baja race truck by weekend racers and professional drivers alike.
The Raptor is powered by Fords 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine technology, which produces more thrust than the older 6.2-liter V8 engine. A 10-speed transmission ensures optimal efficiency when shifting.
A new transfer case manages power distribution between the front and back wheels, ensuring force on demand for the Raptors four-wheel drive. The 2017 Raptor also comes with a brand new Terrain Management System, allowing the driver to optimize engine output depending on driving conditions.
Military-strength steel and high-grade aluminium-alloy body construction allowed Fords engineers to shave an amazing 500 pounds off previous iterations of the Raptor. In fact, the leaner frame and increased engine capacity give the Raptor its best weight-to-power ratio ever.
The 2017 Raptor is available as both a SuperCrew and SuperCab truck. The four-door SuperCrew comes with an expanded 145-inch wheelbase, providing more legroom for passengers and storage space for gear.
The 2017 Raptor will be built at the Dearborn Truck Plant in Michigan. Sales to the public are slated to begin this fall.

The home buying market is heating upand fast. Chances are, your new dream home is someone elses too. Here are five ways to distinguish your offer from the rest.
Be pre-approved. Being pre-approved is stronger than being pre-qualified. It demonstrates to the seller that you have the ability to turn your loan into a virtual cash offer.
Strengthen your offer. The easier the process is for the seller, the better your chances are of being accepted. You can strengthen your position by offering more than the asking price, increasing the amount of earnest money or adapting closing dates that accommodate the seller.
Address inspections and contingencies differently. Instead of waiting 15 days for a home inspection, try decreasing that time to show you are eager to move through the process. Agreeing to absorb any difference between the sale and appraisal price can also calm a nervous seller.
Consider an escalation clause. In the case of multiple offers, an escalation clause is designed to edge out competing bids by automatically raising your offer when another bid comes in. This also eliminates the risk of unnecessarily paying too much.
Write a letter. Try to make a personal connection with the seller. Let them know how special their home is to you and relate the importance of becoming the next owner. Sellers love to know who will inhabit the space theyve called home.

Keep the music scene alive and growing here in Michiana!
Membership Campaign
Last year the Americana Music Association members voted Ignition Music Garage as one of the top 10 venues in the U.S.!
We have created a new music scene that is now expanding to more venues, local bands, and increasing audiences for live music. We have a ways to go until we can say we have finally "arrived". We have been careful at plotting our course to the next step in our evolution. Our hope is that we can hold more shows, with a greater variety of styles of music, in multiple rooms in Goshen…every weekend.
The crew at Ignition, both staff & local talent, are willing to do more. Our plans are to bring bigger acts to town, in venues with more seats while maintaining our cozy vibe. We are excited about the possibilities presented by the renovations at The Goshen Theater. Oktoberfest was a great example of what is possible with community involvement
If we get the audience support, our plans are to book 40 shows during 2016. Help make that happen!
Your membership is critical to allowing us to take this next step.
Our sponsors, members and community volunteers should be proud of what we have accomplished together. We have been accepting more artists requests to play our room. Your contribution will allow us to take that risk starting….. well, now I guess.
This lineup is a conscious step on our part to bring more music and events to Goshen. In fact our biggest event yet will take place at Goshen
Please invite your friends to share this Ignition experience. If you value what we are doing here, make a contribution! Keep original music and concerts part of our local culture!
Special thanks to our Sponsors!
91.1 The Globe is a founding partner of Ignition Music Garage. They have provided us with adirect link to the music industry and has been fantastic in playing the music and helping us bring these bands to a small market.
Gold Level Sponsors
Venturi Pizzeria will continue their ticket coupon for discounts on meals at their fine restaurant
Best Western Hotel our newest sponsor is not only providing discounted rooms for artists and out of town guests.
Woodstar Photography has provided a gallery of great photos that are shared after every show.
Jo Jo's Pretzels became a sponsor this year with a generous contribution. There were tokens for free pretzels, but Ethan ate them all.
The County Seat is a contributor and has provided dozens of meals to Ignition Artists staying in Goshen.
The Electric Brew has been the ideal partner, letting us use their space for entry to shows, and providing coffee for us.
Metz Legal Services has become a sponsor. Thank goodness we haven't need the legal services Mike has offered.
How about you? Can you make a contribution to help us keep this going?

Gnome's Brasero burning tool
Gnome's integrated burning tool is fine for simple tasks, but if you need to do more than just back up a couple of documents on a CD, you might prefer a more powerful program like Brasero.
KDE users have an easy option – K3b [1] gives them a powerful suite of burning tools that integrates perfectly with the desktop. Although GnomeBaker [2] is a functional Gtk alternative, GnomeBaker has never achieved the popularity of the KDE application. This has led to users installing K3b on many a Gnome machine and to K3b's undoubtedly justified reputation as the reference application among burning tools.
The launch of Brasero [3] marks a new competitor entering the market. Brasero version 0.5.2 lists an impressive feature set that helps facilitate burning on Gnome.

Guide By: Magespower
There are 12 achievements with a total of 200 points.
|Deathless Destruction
|Finish a destroy the object level without killing an enemy
For this you need to complete a level that requires you to destroy objects without killing a single enemy. The easiest level to do this on is "Level 3" where you have to destroy the boots. Be patient and aim carefully while destroying the boots. If you accidentally kill an enemy you can always retry in quick play.
|Nice Beating You
|Finish the first set of levels by beating the first Pirate boss
The first set of levels are 1-6. Once you pass Level 6, this achievement will unlock.
|One Meeeeeelion Blocks!
|Destroy a total of 1.000.000 blocks. All blocks you destroyed from all levels are counted.
This might require some grinding depending on how much of the environment you destroy while playing through the story. If you need to go back for this one, pick any level and grab the big rocket power up and start shooting the environment. No need to worry if you destroy it all because it rebuilds itself over time.
|I'll Show You Fits Of Rage
|Shoot 20 enemies in 60 seconds. All game modes are counted.
This is simple in the later levels when there are many enemies on screen. Get the triple rocket power up and keep shooting and this achievement should unlock.
|You're Like Some Kind Of Robot
|Shoot 50 enemies with a longshot.
You get a longshot when an enemy has not entered your sight on the screen but they can be identified by a yellow triangle. Shoot them before they enter the screen to get a longshot. This should unlock just playing through the story but if you have trouble, just find a corner and keep shooting and you should get easy longshot kills.
|Been There, Shot That
|Use every power-up at least once.
There are a total of 20 power ups in Rocket Riot. They are categorized as bad, good, and funny. Just use each of them one time. Images and descriptions of each power up can be found in the in-game help screen.
|Two Thumb Master
|Defeat BlockBeard to finish the single player campaign.
Blockbeard is the Final Boss in the game and is the most difficult boss to beat. Some tips for beating him would be use the power ups to your advantage. Get in close to him for only short periods of time and if your health turns yellow get away from him and let it recharge before going back in for more. This may take a few attempts.
|On A Gamer's Diet
|Shoot 50 zombies, 50 robots, 50 pirates and 50 soldiers, all levels are counted.
You will get this before you even complete the story as most levels require you to kill a certain amount of enemies to pass them. Each set of levels has different types of enemies. Just pass the levels and if you have any issues just go back and replay some of the levels through Quick play.
|Natural Born Gamer
|Shoot 5000 enemies in total, all levels are counted.
This will most likely be the last one you get and requires some grinding. Choosing one of the later levels when there are a lot more enemies in them is the quickest route in unlocking the achievement.
|The Things I've Seen
|Shoot every type of enemy at least once, all levels are counted
There are a total of 251 different types of enemies in Rocket Riot. You must shoot all of them at least once. You can check your progress in the Choose Character screen in the game, because each time you shoot an enemy you unlock them for use in the game.
|A Wilhelm Scream
|Die while fighting BlockBeard on the final level.
BlockBeard is the Final boss. All you need to do for this is to go right up to him and sit there and you will be dead in a matter of seconds.
|One Shot, Thrice The Score
|Using the Triple Rocket power up, kill 3 enemies with one shot
The triple rocket power up comes in one of the green power up boxes and has a image of 3 rockets on it. Grab this power up and get into one of the corners of the map and let the enemies come to you. When there is a group in front of you just fire and you should get it no problem. This will be much easier in one of the later levels when there a lot more enemies on the screen.

ABINGTON – Just two hours after Nicole Cutter created an online fundraising page in honor of Sgt. Daniel Vasselian, donations surpassed her goal of $5,000. By the end of that first day $30,000 had been raised. As of Friday, more than 1,100 donations have added up to nearly $68,000, with the money going toward funeral costs not covered by federal benefits and the SGT Daniel Vasselian Memorial Fund."I was blown away by how much money was raised," said Cutter, a longtime friend of Vasselian's wife, Erin. "The outpouring of support was amazing."Vasselian, an Abington Marine, was killed Dec. 23, 2013 during an ambush in Afghanistan. It was his third tour of duty.In the days and weeks since, Vasselian has been honored by hundreds of local residents, veterans and officials, and yellow ribbons remain wrapped around light poles throughout Abington, a stark reminder of the community's loss.Behind the scenes, his family and friends have worked on ways to keep his memory alive and to help fellow military and Abington families in need.In April, a photo collage of Vasselian and his family members is set to appear on the cover of Abington's 2013 Town Report. Vasselian's mother, Karen, stopped by the town offices Friday to pick out the picture.It is the first time in recent memory that a person rather than an historic building or scene will adorn the report's cover, Assistant Town Manager Dori Jamieson said."We figured we could not, not dedicate it to Dan," Jamieson said.Supporters are also working on establishing a road race in Vasselian's honor, planned to debut next fall. Erin Vasselian and other family members are still finalizing the details, but they plan to use all of the funds raised to support military families who have suffered a similar loss, Abington families who face tragedy and military organizations, Jillian Logan said.Logan, another longtime family friend, said that the Vasselians will have a 50-person team participating in the Abington Police Community Partners 5K Road Race, scheduled for May 17. A significant portion of the money raised during that race will go toward setting up the fall fundraiser.Proceeds from T-shirt and sweatshirt sales are also going toward the memorial fund.Erin Vasselian has been working on establishing a non-profit entity, Logan said.Vasselian was last stationed with an infantry unit at Camp Lejeune before being deployed to Afghanistan. He graduated from Abington High School in 2004 and joined the Marines in 2006.Joseph Markman may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
