Apple Is Making It Easier to Recycle Your Devices
Apple has had mail-in recycling options, and trade-in initiatives for a while, but beginning today you'll be able to take your retired Apple devices to any Apple store in the world for free recycling. And if one of your castoff is in good shape, you might get store credit for it, too.
The initiative is a tangible action that relates to what CEO Tim Cook was talking about in yesterday's slightly abstract Better video. The goals seemed vague in the video, but this initiative is something that's immediately useful. Apple reports that it has recycled 421 million pounds of equipment since 1994 and many Apple recycling events accept devices made by other companies.
E-waste recycling is exactly the type of public service that a company like Apple can provide more efficiently than small groups, thanks to its reach. That doesn't mean small community-based initiatives can't produce meaningful results. It just means that Apple's size gives it an easy opportunity to make responsible decisions. And when it comes to the environment, scale is important.
In the video Tim Cook says, "Better can't be better if it doesn't consider everything. Our products. Our values. And an even stronger commitment to the environment for the future. ... To us, better is a force of nature." It kind of feels like that doesn't mean anything, but maybe Apple can actually translate some of the PR speak into action. And being able to drop any old Apple product off at one of the company's stores will just be downright convenient.

'Blog Entry' Sparks Furor Over Sotomayor
When federal appeals court Judge Sonia Sotomayor emerged as a leading candidate to be named to the U.S. Supreme Court this spring, one Web article above all drove debate about her merits.
The article was used to bash the judge's prospects even before her formal nomination. But its author, the noted legal writer Jeffrey Rosen, says he's been burned by the episode, too — enough that he's swearing off blogging for good.
"It was a short Web piece," Rosen says now, sounding a little shellshocked. "I basically thought of it as a blog entry."
"Short" for Rosen, the legal affairs editor for the left-of-center New Republic magazine, was more than 1,000 words. "The Case Against Sotomayor" was posted on the Web site of The New Republic on May 4. He quoted unnamed former federal law clerks who had worked for Sotomayor and her colleagues. Some seemed quite high on her skills and her possible nomination. But he also cited the concerns of others about the intellectual rigor of her legal writing and her demeanor as a judge.
"I've always been interested in temperament because it strikes me as the most reliable predictor for judicial success," Rosen says. "It turns out that over the course of history, the most successful justices have been the more pragmatic, conciliatory people who have put the interests of the court above their ideological agendas."
Rosen would seem perfectly poised to make such an assessment. He's a law professor at George Washington University who also frequently writes for The New Yorker and the New York Times Sunday magazine, as he did again this weekend.
A Provocative Charge
Among the things Rosen reported was the central claim that Sotomayor was, in the actual words of one of his sources, "not that smart and kind of a bully on the bench."
It was a provocative turn of phrase about Sotomayor, a woman who was a summa cum laude graduate of Princeton University and an editor of the Yale Law Journal. Rosen's piece ricocheted around the blogosphere, picked up by the judge's ideological friends and foes.
Mark Hemingway of the conservative National Review tartly wrote, "So she's dumb AND obnoxious. Got it." The next day, Marc Ambinder, political editor for The Atlantic, wrote an online essay with the headline "Sotomayor's Public Image at Risk, Early." He pointed to Rosen to represent what he called "the respectable political center."
"My goal was not necessarily to spur any defense of her," Ambinder says. "It was to point out that in the absence of a defense of her, those questions were likely to be part of how she came to be defined, if and when Barack Obama actually announced her as the nominee."
And Ambinder's piece, itself widely circulated, helped cement Rosen's account as conventional wisdom. It was explicitly cited by reporters and anchors on such outlets as Fox News, CNN and NPR.
But the story really inspired the conservative commentariat. Rush Limbaugh read aloud from Rosen's piece, saying Sotomayor "sometimes missed the forest for the trees"; CNBC's Larry Kudlow cited Rosen to say, "she's not penetrating, not well-prepared"; and Fox News' Fred Barnes invoked Rosen in calling her "basically just an average appeals court judge."
Assessment Challenged
Liberals struck back — at Rosen. Some asked whether a male judge would be confronted with the same assessments of brusqueness from the bench. Others asked how a judge of her academic and legal achievements could be considered an intellectual lightweight. And there was great focus on Rosen's use of anonymous former federal law clerks.
"Clearly the point and purpose of Rosen's article was to convey what he claimed was the fact that most people who had worked with Sotomayor in the 2nd Circuit found her to be wanting — both in terms of her intellect and her character," says Glenn Greenwald, a former lawyer who says he tried several cases before Sotomayor and writes on constitutional matters for the liberal online publication Salon.com.
He wrote repeatedly about Rosen's take on Sotomayor, even as Rosen posted additional essays, first to explain his thinking further and then to support her confirmation once Obama announced the pick.
Greenwald says it would have been legitimate to explore the judge's rulings and even her temperament, but he called the way Rosen assessed her as "reckless and just journalistically corrupt."
"Essentially, what he did was the equivalent of finding a few people who disliked somebody, giving them anonymity so they can say whatever they want, without any accountability whatsoever, and then passing along pure, vindictive gossip," Greenwald says.
Rosen Defends Article
In his initial follow-up posting, on May 8, Rosen added two elements: First, he wrote that his initial sources were liberal scholars who approached him who had been clerks for Sotomayor or other judges on her appeals court. They wanted a more impressive liberal figure for the court. Second, their impressions that she was not a star of the highest order were underscored by an entry on her in the respected Almanac of the Federal Judiciary, which includes ratings of judges based on lawyers who work with them. (Some of the quotes in the Almanac also praised her intelligence and demeanor.)
By writing about her legal intellect, Rosen tells NPR, he was exploring whether she rose to the level of judicial and tactical brilliance one might want in a Supreme Court Justice. Rosen says he wasn't questioning her fundamental intelligence or skill as a lawyer.
"I was appalled by the misrepresentation of my article by conservatives along those lines," Rosen says. "The article said nothing of the kind. It quoted positive things about her. It quoted concerns about her temperament. It's a willful misrepresentation of the piece to caricature it in that way."
In addition, Rosen has disavowed the headline, which he says he didn't see before the article's posting and unfairly framed his piece as an attack. Maybe, Rosen says, he could have been a bit more careful about the nuances.
But Rosen fundamentally defends his original article. He thought it was right to get a first take on the judge before the nomination was a done deal. He says his initial sources made clear they never would have talked on the record. He points to a recent New York Times article titled "Sotomayor's Blunt Style Raises Issue of Temperament" that cited similar passages from the Almanac.
Above all, Rosen says he's drawn a lesson from how his initial essay was treated by people of both ideological stripes. He won't be blogging any more. He wants to spend more time with the material before hitting "send."

LANDOVER, Md. — The Denver Broncos learned another lesson Sunday in a troubled season that seems to have included one painful learning point after another.
After the 27-11 loss to the Washington Redskins, a team almost as flawed as the Broncos in many ways, the Broncos left FedEx Field with real confirmation that they're kidding themselves if they think a new quarterback will fix all their problems.
Set to face Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins — a potential free-agency prize if Washington lets him into the open market — much of the discussion this season has been about the Broncos' travails at the position and whether a veteran such as Cousins, or a high-prized rookie, is what they need.
There is no question, even as president of football operations/general manager John Elway started his early draft work this past week by attending Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen's bowl game in Boise, that the team's quarterback plan will dominate the offseason work. But Sunday's loss offered proof the Broncos (5-10) can't stop there.
They need to decide what they want to be on offense. As they have at times this season, they essentially pulled the chute on what this team does best Sunday after finding trouble. A game they had dominated by pounding the ball in the run game in the opening quarter got away from them when they let a couple second-quarter turnovers change their approach.
The Broncos went from 12 carries in a first quarter in which they controlled the tempo — they outgained Washington 86 yards to 14 and held the ball for 10 minutes and 58 seconds — to far less enthusiasm about running the ball after an interception and a fumble by Brock Osweiler.
By the end of the third quarter they had added only 12 carries to their first-quarter total and had fallen behind by 10 points. That's happened over and over again in a season where they're 5-0 when they run the ball more than they throw it and 0-10 when the scale tips the other way.
That transitions rather smoothly to the Broncos' difficulties in pass protection. Right tackle Donald Stephenson had a particularly difficult day Sunday, especially when Ryan Kerrigan was across from him.
A new quarterback won't do much good if the Broncos can't give the guy a cleaner pocket when they do want to throw. Consider: Osweiler's fumble and interception in the second quarter were each byproducts of breakdowns up front.
Rookie left tackle Garett Bolles will need to make a big jump in both play as well as on-field maturity next season. The Broncos need far more depth and need to decide if Menelik Watson, currently on injured reserve, is the plan at right tackle (he's never started more than 12 games in any of his five seasons).
And the notion that the defense is just fine was left in the vapor trail of a wide-open Josh Doctson on a 48-yard, walk-in-the-park touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter. Whether it's plan, personnel or not enough teaching moments, the Broncos might have had more high-profile breakdowns in coverage this season than in the previous two years combined.
Cousins came into Sunday's game as one of the most-sacked quarterbacks in the league (38), and the Broncos still couldn't get Von Miller free enough to make a difference.
When all was said and done, the Broncos' season was summed up perfectly by a play just before halftime. Down 10-3, but having put themselves in position for a field goal in the final seconds of the first half, Osweiler threw a short pass to rookie wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie to get kicker Brandon McManus a little closer.
McKenzie caught the ball near the Redskins sideline and could have stopped the clock by simply running out of bounds to set up McManus. Instead, McKenzie took the ball and cut inside toward the middle of the field. The clock ran out, leaving the Broncos to run down the tunnel empty-handed.
That's how they'll leave this season after next weekend's finale.

How to Eat a Whole Fish
A whole fish is just as easy to prepare as a fillet, and it makes a stunning presentation. Enjoying it will take just a little more navigation on the part of your guests to avoid the bones, but the flavor imparted by a fish cooked on the bone is worth every extra effort.
1. After cooking, transfer fish to a plate.
2. Using a sharp knife or fish knife, cut between the head and body until the knife touches the backbone. Repeat on tail end.
3. Insert knife at tail end, and cut from backbone to cavity. With knife resting against backbone, cut up to head.
4. Insert a spatula underneath flesh of fish, on top of the backbone and lift.
5. Lift tail; remove backbone.
6. If desired, remove skin from fillet.

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relating to contributions and expenditures with respect to Federal elections.
Mr. YARMUTH (for himself and Mr. JONES) introduced the following joint resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relating to contributions and expenditures with respect to Federal elections.
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled (two-thirds of each House concurring therein),
That the following article is proposed as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which shall be valid to all intents and purposes as part of the Constitution when ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years after the date of its submission for ratification:
SECTION 1. Financial expenditures, or in kind equivalents, with respect to a candidate for Federal office, without regard to whether or not a communication expressly advocates the election or defeat of a specified candidate in the election, shall not constitute protected speech, as guaranteed by this Constitution or any amendment to this Constitution.
SECTION 2. Congress shall have the power to enact a mandatory public financing system to provide funds to qualified candidates in elections for Federal office, which shall be the sole source of funds raised or spent with respect to Federal elections.
SECTION 3. Congress shall set forth a legal public holiday for the purposes of voting in regularly scheduled general elections for Federal office."
Op-ed Guidelines
Please bring up points that were missed, elaborate on issues not fleshed out, add ways to make the idea/bill better, suggest a companion for GREATER Raters to consider. Please check your facts, grammar, syntax, punctuation, credit sources and quotes, and keep it under 500 words unless you absolutely cannot—then never more than 700 words. Please keep your criticism constructive. We will likely not print destructive criticism although a well written partisan rant bringing up new issues in the idea/bill or previous Op-eds may be accepted if it ends on a constructive note—especially if it offers an alternative idea/bill.
Shorter "letters" are encouraged that bring a new facet to the subject. The intent of the Op-eds is to fully cover the issue for the kind reader to consider before rating, and not waste their time with redundancy or the dreaded—"people-screaming-at-one-another-while-wearing-earplugs-syndrome." Think of the idea/bill as the base with the Op-eds stacked on top to form a structurally sound argument. The goal here is to have a GREATER US for the greatest number of citizens/neighbors. We may publish your piece without notice—so please only submit completed articles. We may, also, contact you for a rewrite or edit. We might even offer suggestions. It is our intention to fairly present the views of fiscal conservatives, independents, and social liberals—to find the overlap of whole-hearted support (nonpartisan) plus the commonality of the "I-can-live-with-that" (bipartisan).

Steve Clarke, Alex McLeish, David Ginola and Ray Parlour to head selection process for Budweiser Open Trials in association with BT Sport
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Feb. 13, 2014) -
Editor's Note: There is a photo associated with this press release.
Steve Clarke, Alex McLeish, David Ginola and Ray Parlour are to lead the search for the UK's most talented amateur footballers before taking the best 32 players to Wembley as part of Budweiser Open Trials.
The search, run by FA Cup sponsor Budweiser in association with BT Sport, will see six regional trials from which 250 trialists will be selected for a final assessment at St. George's Park. The trials will culminate in a showpiece match at the home of football, Wembley Stadium, to be watched by scouts of professional football clubs. Clarke, McLeish, Ginola and Parlour will be present at St. George's Park to select the best players and will then manage and coach the two teams that make it through to the Wembley match.
Steve Clarke and Alex McLeish have both experienced success at Wembley, with the former winning The FA Cup as a player and a coach and the latter winning the 2011 League Cup Final as manager of Birmingham City. Both have extensive managerial experience with some of the UK's biggest clubs including Glasgow Rangers, Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion.
David Ginola and Ray Parlour will act as assistants to the experienced management duo. Their role will be to identify which hopefuls are ready for their second chance of glory, and who possesses the technical and mental attributes required for the modern game. This will include hands-on guidance during the trials, and individual mentoring as the final 32 prepare for the biggest match of their lives at Wembley.
Steve Clarke said:
"There is no doubt that many talented players slip through the net despite the vast scouting networks some of the clubs have. Budweiser Open Trials could be the break some of these lads need to make a career for themselves in the game. The trialists' dedication won't be in question, but it is my job to mould them tactically and technically to give them the best chance of success."
Alex McLeish said:
"This is a great way for footballers around the country to have a shot at fulfilling their dreams and playing at Wembley. The trial process will be tough going but for the ones that make it through, the rewards will be the chance to run out at one of the most famous stadiums in the world."
David Ginola from BT Sport said:
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what talent is out there and helping to mentor them through the Budweiser Open Trials in association with BT Sport. I was lucky enough to play at the old Wembley and it's a truly magical experience for all footballers."
Ray Parlour said:
"The Budweiser Open Trials is the opportunity every amateur footballer dreams of - a second chance. I've played with some of the most gifted players ever to have graced a football pitch, but the difference is usually the desire. I based my game on this will to win, and will be looking for similar traits in the players dreaming of making it all the way to Wembley."
BT Sport will cover the Open Trials from start to finish, resulting in a 30 minute documentary to be aired on FA Cup Final weekend in May. Highlights of the regional and St. George's Park stages of Open Trials will also be aired on the day of The FA Cup Quarter Finals in March and weekend of the Semi Finals in April.
A series of professional level drills have been created for the first round of six regional trials by Newcastle United Assistant Manager John Carver. The scorecard-based tests are designed to assess the technical and physical ability of each of the trialists, with the highest scoring players progressing to The National Football Centre, St. George's Park, and then Wembley.
Christian Flouch, Senior Brand Manager, Budweiser UK said:
"Budweiser Open Trials is an opportunity to prove it is never too late, and with Steve Clarke, Alex McLeish, David Ginola and Ray Parlour leading the search, we have some of the most knowledgeable coaches and former players in the game. This experienced team will bring the best out of the trialists and help a lucky few realise their Wembley dream. Fans feel the magic of The FA Cup in many different ways, whether it is the anticipation of watching their team in the preliminaries or the glory of an FA Cup Final itself. This campaign gives a second chance to those who want to experience the excitement of playing at Wembley for themselves."
Grant Best, Senior Channel Executive Producer, BT Sport, said:
"All the drama of The FA Cup will be provided by the trialists and we're delighted to be bringing the stories behind the Open Trials to BT Sport viewers."

BY JEFF HORSEMAN / The Press-Enterprise
So far, no one has announced plans to challenge Sen. Richard Roth in 2016. But that hasn't stopped the Riverside Democrat from announcing a string of endorsements from local elected leaders as he seeks a second four-year term.
In recent months, Roth's campaign has issued a number of press releases touting the support of various politicians. The list includes Riverside Mayor William "Rusty" Bailey; District Attorney Mike Hestrin; supervisors Marion Ashley, John Tavaglione and John Benoit and former Riverside mayor Ron Loveridge.
In a statement sent by a campaign consultant, Roth said: "I am proud that so many community leaders, Democrats and Republicans, have endorsed me for re-election to the State Senate. I am announcing my endorsements to show the support I have received locally and to build momentum toward the election in June."
"Between now and then, I am working to make sure that my list of supporters continues to grow and that my campaign remains strong. As someone who won a tough election before, I don't want to take anything for granted."
The senator has raised more than $631,000 for his 2016 campaign fund, state records show.
Roth, an attorney and retired Air Force general, was elected to represent the 31st Senate District – Riverside, Moreno Valley, Norco, Perris, Corona, Jurupa Valley and Eastvale – in 2012, following a competitive race with Republican Assemblyman Jeff Miller. More than $9 million was spent on the race, making it the costliest Senate contest in California in 2012.
Democrats hold a 3-percentage point edge in voter registration in the 31st, which went to President Barack Obama in 2012.

MTV Pulls Punch-Out Footage From Next Week's Jersey Shore
The punch heard 'round the internet is now too hot for TV.
Apparently it wasn't enough for MTV to promise to air a PSA about how hitting is bad: now the cable network has pulled the footage of Snooki getting punched in the face, allegedly by NYC gym teacher Brad Ferro, which was set to air next week. The episode will still follow the aftermath of the punching scene, which has virally spread to the four corners of the internet already anyway. In other Jersey Shore news, does Alyssa Milano hate it? Why yes, she does.

Being one of the best medium of reaching out the potential customers, companies have now started investing most of their marketing budget into online. It is very crucial for any companies to know their target customer and their online behaviour to distribute the media expenditure
Being in the field of digital marketing as a Project Manager from last 1 year, I have observed several project and also planned for several companies in various domain. Planning for media buying is really a mind game and data driven approach. The perfect blend cannot determine in the first go
Since we do not know the exact behaviour of customers we must select various possible platforms from where we can generate leads. The best way is to design a portfolio. Distribute your budget into all possible platforms like
- In Search go for Google, Yahoo, Bing and some other
- In Social Media go for Facebook Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Twitter Ads and some new platforms like Pinterest.
- Go for Online display with selected sites based on target group.
- Invest in Email marketing.
- Invest in Email marketing.
As a summary I just want to suggest be careful while making your media expenditure. The selection must be based on data and ROI. Do the experiments with a low budget for at least a month, based on the data of the 1st month revise your portfolio. Analyse you ROI and again re plan your budget.

Welcome to the Friends of Broomhill Avenue Greenspace web site
The Friends of Broomhill Avenue Greenspace became a constituted group in March 2010 & we are now one of Glasgow's many friends of groups set up to help protect and improve parts of Glasgow (however small) that people don't want to lose. For more information about our background and aims see About Us.
The first and main objective of the group is to conserve the green area and to improve it for the benefit of the local community and the birds, bees, bats, butterflies and mini-beasts currently using the area. The greenspace plays a valuable role in making Broomhill an attractive place to live and it is identified in the townscape character plan for the Broomhill Conservation Area as a 'green corridor'.

Public education and participation has been a major part of building the strength of the organization. Throughout the years, FOPE has had a presence at the Canada Day Parade, has provided Estuary Tours during HarbourFest, has made presentations to school and community groups, has entertained a wide variety of guest speakers at Annual General Meetings, and has built up the Annual Flotilla to more than 100 participants. People have also become more involved as the results of projects have become physically visible in the community.
Partnerships with other groups remain central to the success of the organization
The Community Aquatic Monitoring Program (CAMP) has been ongoing since 2005 and involves collecting data on species, numbers, water quality and other relevant conditions from six sites throughout the Estuary. This is done in conjunction with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and the Southern Gulf of St. Lawrence Coalition on Sustainability (SGSL Coalition). This information becomes part of a larger pool that involves communities throughout the Southern Gulf of St. Lawrence.
The Adopt a Stream Program focuses on habitat restoration in the tributaries that flow into the Pugwash River. This work includes putting in digger logs to improve water flow and deepen pools, clearing culverts to allow fish to move freely, repairing fish ladders, and erecting fencing to keep cattle out of streams. Adopt a Stream is funded and administered by the Nova Scotia Salmon Federation. The Nova Scotia Youth Conservation Corp partially sponsors two students to help with all summer work.
Stewardship: Nature Conservancy Canada (NCC) has protected more than 1000 acres in the Estuary, and FOPE works closely with them by assuming stewardship over several sections and by combining with NCC each June in an effort to control the glossy buckthorn, a very aggressive invasive species.
County Consultation: FOPE members helped organize and participated in the Cumberland County Sustainable Development Strategy for the Pugwash River Watershed.
Looking ahead
In 2013, FOPE also achieved Charitable Status which enabled us to move forward on a long held dream of owning land on the Estuary. Thanks to some generous donors, we now own eight acres of land with a house, two barns and an osprey nest.
Plans include the renovation of the house into a meeting place/office, development of interpretive trails, an educational kiosk and a launching area for canoes and kayaks.
Looking to the future we hope to have a research affiliation with a university, a teaching center for schools, and an all-round welcoming place for the general public.

Fairfield killing victims identified
Two men shot and killed at a Fairfield condominium complex were identified Thursday.
Jamar Chew, 24, of Fairfield and Bernard Francis Knight, 18, of East Palo Alto were found shot to death on El Toro Court in the Parkway Gardens complex about 4:45 p.m. Wednesday, police said.
The men were in an altercation with at least one other person who opened fire, said Officer Cleo Mayoral, a Fairfield police spokesman.
He said investigators were looking for a man who was seen running away with a handgun and may have left the complex in a gold Mercedes-Benz sedan.
Mayoral said the complex has been the site of other shootings. In August 2010, two teenage boys were shot there but survived.

Snapshot: Winter Chills
Winter Chills
The Oscar nominees were announced this week, but Hollywood has already moved into the next phase of its annual movie release calendar—the one that comes between the highbrow movies of December and the first summer blockbusters in May. Many studios are turning to tales of the dark, the creepy and the paranormal. Films like this can get a quick jolt at the box office: The low-budget exorcism film "The Devil Inside" hit the No. 1 slot on its recent opening weekend, bumping the previous top film, "Mission: Impossible—Ghost Protocol."
—Monika Anderson
'The Woman in Black,' Feb. 3
In his first movie role since Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe, 22, is Arthur Kipps, a widower and attorney who comes to a remote English village. Kipps soon discovers the unwelcoming townspeople are terrorized by, yes, a woman in black. Adapted from a novel by Susan Hill.
'The Innkeepers,' Feb. 3
Director Ti West was staying with his cast and crew at the Yankee Pedlar Inn in Torrington, Conn., to shoot another film, "The House of the Devil," when he came up with this film's premise. In the movie, which was shot on location at the inn, Sara Paxton plays a hotel clerk who is determined to figure out if the Yankee Pedlar is haunted. Lena Dunham ("Tiny Furniture" and HBO's coming "Girls") has a cameo as an oversharing barista.
'The Cabin in the Woods,' April 13
Nothing is what it seems in this high-concept horror movie co-written by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard, who worked together to create the genre-savvy humor of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." In Mr. Goddard's directorial debut, the set up is typical of a horror film (a group of friends travel to a cabin off the grid), but there are bigger horrors at play than ghosts.
'Silent House,' March 9
It has been nine years since directors Chris Kentis and Laura Lau filmed two scuba divers left to their own devices with hungry sharks in "Open Water." This remake of an Uruguayan horror film stars Elizabeth Olsen as a young woman helping to ready her family's old summer home for sale (yes, the electricity is out). Trapped in the house, she battles personal demons and real-life terrors.

|Supplement Facts
Other Ingredients: Calcium carbonate, vegetable stearic acid, microcrystalline cellulose, vegetable magnesium stearate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, croscarmellose sodium and silicon dioxide.
Allergen Warning: CONTAINS SOY
Lab Test Advisory: Biotin may interfere with lab tests. The FDA recommends stopping any supplements with biotin (vitamin B7) for 3 days prior to lab tests.
WARNING: This product is manufactured and packaged in a facility which may also process milk, soy, wheat, egg, peanuts, fish and crustacean shellfish.
CAUTION: Do not exceed recommended dose. Pregnant or nursing mothers, children under 18, and individuals with a known medical condition should consult a physician before using this or any dietary supplement.
Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take six (6) tablets daily or as directed by a health care professional. Daily amount can be divided and taken throughout the day.
Ray & Terry's Total Care Daily Formula contains 180 tablets per bottle.
There are other reasons that individuals need supplementation. Even if you were able to eat enough nutrient-rich food, modern methods of food storage, preparation and cooking reduce nutrient levels excessively. "Modern" farming methods have led to mineral depletion of once fertile farmland, so most food available commercially is lacking in one or more essential nutrients.
By taking Ray & Terry's Total Care Daily Formula, along with the Ray & Terry's Mega EPA/DHA Formulation, you will ensure that your body has adequate supplies of virtually all the essential vitamins, minerals and fatty acids needed for optimal health and anti-aging. In addition, the powerful antioxidants coenzyme Q10, grape seed extract and alpha lipoic acid are included.
Grape seed extract is a powerful antioxidant with numerous other benefits:
- Helps support healthy heart, circulation and immune functions
- Improves elasticity and strength of blood vessels3,4
- Supports the growth and viability of normal cells.5
Coenzyme Q10 is another powerful antioxidant and is found naturally in the body. According to longevity experts, coenzyme Q10:
- Increases energy8
- Enhances the immune system
- Assists oxygenation of blood
- Supports healthy heart function
- Helps maintain blood pressure already within a normal level
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is unique in that, while Vitamin C is our premier water-soluble antioxidant and Vitamin E is our primary fat-soluble antioxidant, alpha lipoic acid serves as both a water-soluble and fat-soluble antioxidant.9 ALA works to:
- Help recycle other antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, glutathione, and even CoQ itself10
- Support healthy liver function11
Taking coenzyme Q10, grape seed extract and lipoic acid along with vitamins C and E provides you with very powerful antioxidant protection.
Total Care Daily Formula is Unique
Many "multiple vitamin" formulations do not include any grape seed extract, coenzyme Q10 or alpha lipoic acid at all because these nutrients are relatively expensive. If you take the full dose of 6 tablets a day of Ray & Terry's Total Care Daily Formula, you will receive 120 mg of grape seed extract, 30 mg of co Q10 and 60 mg of alpha lipoic acid. Purchased separately, these three ingredients alone would cost as much as the entire Total Care Daily Formulation, but you wouldn't be getting the other 31 critical ingredients.

The faculty members of the Department of Missions and Ministry at Cumberlands are dedicated to providing the best possible training to students interested in earning their bachelor's degree in youth and family ministry. Experienced ministers and accomplished scholars, they will guide you as you develop the skills to mature in your Christian faith and commitment and to minister for Christ in the 21st century. As a youth ministry major, you will hone your skills and develop strategies for serving Christ in the United States and around the world through evangelism; church planting; discipleship; and personal, compassionate ministry to all people.
Whether you plan to pursue a seminary degree immediately after completing your youth ministry degree or move directly into Christian ministry, UC's program will prepare you to take your place in Christian service. You can earn a B.S. in one of five majors (Missions, Church Planting, Youth and Family Ministry, Christian Studies, or Christian Ministries) or you can earn a B.A. by studying a biblical or modern foreign language in addition to your major. Minors are available in Missions, Church Planting, Youth and Family Ministry, and Missions and Ministry.
What Can I Do With This Family and Youth Ministry Degree?
As a youth ministry major, you can prepare to serve in Christian missions around the world. Some minister in nations taking the Gospel to people who have never heard it. Some serve in local churches as pastors, youth ministers, children's ministers, worship ministers or in other capacities. Some who earn their degree give back by planting churches and reaching and discipling people other churches are not able to reach. Still others minister through national organizations like Fellowship of Christian Athletes or through denominational agencies like the Kentucky Baptist Convention and the Southern Baptist Convention. Serving God might take you anywhere, and by earning your bachelor's degree in youth and family ministry, we can help you follow God's call!

Using Your RRSPs Toward a New Home
Most of us think about building retirement savings for the future. Too often, we forget that as first time homebuyers, we can get our retirement savings working for us a little earlier. Although sometimes things seem out of reach, on closer examination there is a solution around the corner. Purchasing that first home may be a lot more feasible than we imagine. By using your RRSPs for a down payment for example, you may be able to buy a home sooner.
The Federal Government has established a program where first time homebuyers can take advantage of savings they have accumulated in their RRSPs for the purchase of their first home. The program allows each participant to withdraw up to $25,000 in RRSPs to finance the purchase under the First Time Homebuyer's Program ($50,000 per couple). The great news is that you have 15 years to pay it back!
For those purchasers who already have the down payment saved, purchasing an RRSP with those funds may go financially further for you than the initial down payment. The transaction would also get you a tax deduction for the year in which the contribution was made. Potentially, at tax time, you would be eligible for a tax refund due to the RRSP contribution. The tax refund would represent additional funds that could be used for other incidentals and closing costs. One factor that is very important to remember here is that the RRSP funds must be on deposit for 90 days to be eligible.
The payback period is monitored and regulated by the Federal Government. They will remind you annually the amount that is required to be deposited in to your RRSP. As long as the program is adhered to, you have 15 years to repay with no penalty. It is borrowing from your golden years but not depleting your retirement savings.
Please contact Tess or Reagan for more information.

Joseph Priestley House [PA]
When Joseph Priestley (17331804) is remembered today, it is usually for his 1774 discovery, in England, of oxygen. Few know he was a noted theologian, political progressive, and prolific author whose scientific contributions include the development of the carbonation process, the identification of carbon monoxide, and early experiments in electricity. He counted Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and James Watt among his friends. Yet Priestley was also a controversial figure whose views were so odious to some of his countrymen that his house, Fair Hill in Birmingham, was burned in a riot, and he and his family left England. Priestley spent the last 10 years of his life in Northumberland, PA, where he continued his work in science, religion, and education. But even in this democratic republic his liberal ideas were frequently received with intolerance, and the peace that he so ardently desired was often elusive. Today, the Joseph Priestley House is an historic site that preserves and interprets the contributions and significance to American history of Joseph Priestley, noted English theologian, educator, natural philosopher, and political theorist.
The house offers a short film, exhibits, tours, educational programs, research library access, and occasional recreational and educational events (including living history events).

WYOMING -- The media spotlight has been shining on Luzerne County since Donald Trump won the presidential election earlier this month.
Democrat-heavy Luzerne County flipped its vote, choosing Trump by a big margin.
Many people from out of the area are trying to figure out why Luzerne County flipped its vote.
ABC's Diane Sawyer is known for interviewing some of the most well-known people in the world. But for a day, Sawyer was interviewing people who live and work in Luzerne County for ABC's 20/20 at Avenue Diner in Wyoming.
"I was a little star struck. I really was because I always admired her," said waitress Debbie Roberts.
"I was surprised! I was very surprised she came into our place!" added waitress Ashley Ostrander.
Sawyer sat in the middle of the diner in the same chair President Obama sat in just before he won his first presidential election in 2008.
"Couldn't believe it!" said owner Dave Krappa. "You never know who's going to come through the door, that's the feeling we're starting to get here."
Sawyer talked to many people having a bite to eat at Avenue Diner about jobs and the economy, among them Kevin McGee, a union member and bus driver for the Luzerne County Transportation Authority.
McGee did not vote for Trump, but he told Sawyer he's slightly optimistic he could bring jobs to the area and grow the local economy.
"You've got to invest in the working class people. The last president to do that was F.D.R.," said McGee.
Several other national and international media visited Luzerne County.
Time magazine photographed and interviewed Kim Woodrosky of Wilkes-Barre. She's a lifelong Democrat who voted Republican for Trump. Time wanted to know why.
"Bringing a businessman to the table is something that I firmly believe that the country probably needs at the moment. And I think it's going to be a breath of fresh air," Woodrosky.
Woodrosky was also interviewed by NPR, and a French newspaper, among other publications. She says the election stretched out her 15 minutes of fame to more of an hour.
As for Diane Sawyer visiting the area, a representative from 20/20 said they were not yet sure when that special might air.

ADEX Brings Consistency
Dentistry is no different in one part of the country than another. There should be no difference in the standards of dentistry from one part of the country to another.
ADEX Brings Unity
ADEX is dedicated to developing a uniform national dental and dental hygiene clinical licensure examination for the sole use by States Boards of Dentistry.
ADEX Brings Portability
With uniform standards and qualifications, a properly licensed dentist or a dental hygienist should be able to practice in any state of the country.
"The Mission of ADEX is to develop clinical licensure exams for dental professionals."
The President's Message
Welcome to the American Board of Dental Examiners, Inc. (ADEX), the only exam development corporation in the country who's membership are States Boards of Dentistry and who's only responsibility is to create a uniform national dental and dental hygiene licensure examination to be administered by Regional or independent testing agencies for the sole purpose of assessing the competency of candidates for licensure assuring States Boards of dentistry that successful completion of the examination will insure a level of competency that promotes public protection.
This is an intriguing yet exciting time for dental licensure examinations in that there is an atmosphere of change in the process of development and administration of patient based examinations. For years there has been constant challenges to the process of clinical based licensure examinations in dentistry and dental hygiene; from the administration of multiple different regional licensure examinations to the ethical use of patients to the cost of dental education and how all of these impact the dental candidate and their immediate future. ADEX has approached all of these challenges in its exam development and process. ADEX came to be because we believe that dentistry is no different in Maine as it is in Hawaii and so why should there be multiple different dental licensure examinations. We have one exam, developed by states dental boards to evaluate the competency of candidates seeking licensure, administered by regional or independent testing agencies. This creates licensure portability throughout the country allowing the new dentist unrestricted access to the best opportunities for their future and financial security.
We are a unique profession with unique qualities and modalities that require innovative and unique assessment processes that must adhere to the guidelines of test design and administration, yet is limited to the level of technology. Long story short, as any one of these above parameters changes, so does the exam. The only way to create consistency and reliability of an exam is by a uniform national exam administered uniformly throughout the country in a process that utilizes the ethical use of live patients in a format accepted by educational institutions and organized dentistry.
Innovative design in the delivery of the ADEX examination incorporates the Dental Educational Institutions, its patients of record and candidates to accomplish an exam process that takes into consideration all the issues of live patient examinations and creates a cohesive exam process by which educators can assess, patients are treated in their normal treatment plan and candidates are assessed by third party evaluators all within the same setting allowing for a smooth and collaborative arrangement satisfactory to educators, candidates and above all the patient. This then assures the states boards of dentistry a truly collaborative, consistent and competent assessment of potential licensees. How exciting a time being able to look at the real possibility of a uniform national dental and dental hygiene licensure examination. All that is needed is support, support from States Boards of Dentistry, from organized dentistry, from dental educators and especially from dental candidates for licensure.
ADEX is an organization that is governed by States Boards of Dentistry. Member States of ADEX send representatives from their board of dentistry to represent them in the governance of ADEX and to the myriad of committees, subcommittees and Ad Hoc committees that create the essence of ADEX. The success of ADEX is due to the hard work of these representatives who volunteer their valuable time and effort to a process that they strongly believe in. ADEX and our member States Boards truly appreciate all the efforts put forth by these individuals. We hope you appreciate our efforts. You have our commitment that ADEX will continue to strive to develop the best initial licensure examination in dentistry and dental hygiene that will be accepted in 53 US states and jurisdictions allowing for one uniform national dental and dental hygiene licensure examination.
Aloha, Stanwood H. Kanna, DDS President, American Board of Dental Examiners, Inc. (ADEX)

CORTLAND — The Jets coaches had been on quarterback Geno Smith all year to use his legs more.
"If it's not there, you know what you can do. Tuck it and run," head coach Rex Ryan told Smith over and over again.
But running did not come naturally to Smith, who had always been a pocket quarterback. Yes, Smith ran the 40-yard dash in 4.59 seconds, the best among the quarterbacks at the 2013 Scouting Combine. But he only averaged 1.4 yards per carry on 245 rushes at West Virginia.
Slowly, though, Smith began to realize he needed to start running.
"It really hit home with me later on in the year," Smith said. "I realized, 'Man, I can't keep forcing it down the field. I can't keep trying to make every single play with my arm. These guys are too good at this level.' A lot of things we need to do in terms of us getting first downs involves me using my feet. I just tried to make the best play possible. If it was there, I was going to throw it. I was going to get it to the guys. If not, I'd try to pick up a few yards and keep it on schedule."
Smith made a change in the final month of the season and began taking off with the ball. He rushed 31 times in the final four games of the year for 186 yards and three touchdowns. During that time, the Jets went 3-1 and Smith played his best. He threw just two interceptions in those four games after throwing six in the previous three.
The 23-year-old said things really clicked against the Panthers in December. The Jets ended up losing 30-20, but they were in the game for most of the day against a playoff team.
"I started playing faster for some reason," Smith said. "I know it was a direct approach of [quarterbacks coach David] Lee stayed on me all year about staying in your reads, knowing your reads, knowing your precise footwork. I was getting better and better and right around the Carolina game I knew I had it, as far as knowing where to go with the ball, knowing when it was and wasn't there. Even in that game I forced a ball when I probably could have ran the ball and took care of us and maybe we would have had a better shot to win that game."
The Jets coaches loved seeing Smith take off with the ball and felt it really added an element to the offense that had been missing.
"It's a backbreaker," Ryan said. "When a quarterback can run for first downs, it's a backbreaker, especially on third downs. I think that was what he really did well for us."
Smith said his rookie year with the Jets was the first time coaches pushed him to run.
"I've always been an athletic guy, but I don't think it's ever been emphasized to me that you can use this as an asset, you can hurt defenses with it, until I got here," Smith said. "I'm learning more and more that defensive coordinators really hate guys that can run. When things are all covered up and you think you've got a guy sacked and he gets out of there and picks up some yards or scrambles and finds a guy downfield, it breaks down a defense. Those little games within the game makes for a better offense."
This offseason, Smith said he "isolated myself from everybody." He went to IMG Academy in Florida for two months and worked with the strength coaches there to add 10 pounds of muscle.
"I've been changing my body. A lot of it is for the girls," Smith joked.
He also locked himself in a room with former NFL quarterback Chris Weinke and broke down all of last year's film, including the games when he was terrible.
"It's like jumping into a tub full of razor blades. You get all cut up," Smith said, borrowing a phrase from Lee. "You watch it and you're like, 'Man, why did I do that? Why did I throw the ball here?' My biggest thing is I was really going off the reservation and putting too much pressure on myself to make a play instead of allowing the game to come to me and just playing football and being natural and then when my time came being opportunistic and taking advantage of it."
Even if that means taking off and running.

Paul McCartney Isn't About to Let His Third Marriage Slow Him Down
In fact, he's added some dates to his "On the Run" tour.
Just one day after his wedding to Nancy Shevell, Paul McCartney announced that he is adding an extra eleven stops to his "On the Run" tour (or, as less ambitious people would call it, "honeymoon"). "My audiences seem to get better each year and the band and I love the buzz and feedback that they give us," the ex-Beatle said in a Monday statement. "I can't wait to see you all for some wild nights of rock n' roll and partying." Just what every new bride wants to hear! Luckily for Paul, Nancy seems significantly more understanding than her predecessor. Also, the guy's almost 70 at this point, so "wild nights" probably doesn't mean what it used to. (Probably.)

Restoring full passport and security checks between European Union (EU) nations would be more cost effective than allowing the migrant crisis to continue indefinitely, a German economic institute has said.
The Munich-based Ifo institute said the reinstating border controls could reduce the EU's economic output by 0.19 to 0.47 per cent each year, equivalent to €26.65 to €65.8 billion.
However, Gabriel Felbermayr, head of Ifo, said that these costs would be "just a small part of the amount that would be caused by uncontrolled mass immigration."
Researchers looked at trade data before and after the introduction of the 1995 Schengen agreement which effectively abolished border controls between signatory nations.
They found that transportation costs would rise by an average of seven per cent if borders were closed again, but as these costs only make up about 10 per cent of product value, the overall effect would be relatively minor.
One of the countries that has been worst affected by the ongoing migrant crisis is Sweden, which will likely need to spend around 600 billion kroner to fund last year's immigration levels.
Stockholm University Associate Professor Jan Tullberg factored in the costs of extra policing and higher benefits along with the immediate costs of receiving so many migrants, and found that the Swedish state will have to spend some 580 billion kroner (£48.3 billion) on these new Swedes from now until the time they either leave the country or die.
Such is the cost of the migrant crisis across Europe that Denmark has even passed legislation allowing border officials to take valuables from newly arrived migrants to help pay for their upkeep while they are in the country.
The idea drew the scorn of the foreign press, with the Washington Post even likening it to the Holocaust.
Danish Integration Minister Inger Stoejberg took to Facebook to defend the policy, writing:
"I can see that some foreign media are pouring scorn over (the fact) that we in the future may withdraw asylum seekers' valuables and demand that they should pay for their stay in asylum centres themselves.
"There is no reason to criticise, since it is already the case that if you as a Dane have valuables for more than 10,000 kroner ($1,450, 1,340 euros) it may be required that this is sold before you can receive unemployment benefits."

FGS® Concrete Conditioner FGS® Hardener PlusTM Sealhard Lythic Day1 Lythic Densifier Lythic Protector
For current pricing and availability, please contact ourSales Counter (907) 459-4800 or by E-Mail
FGS® Concrete Conditioner
FGS® CONCRETE CONDITIONER is a proprietary concrete cleaner and conditioner designed for on-going maintenance of hardened polished concrete surfaces. This product is highly concentrated and contains state-of-the-art wetting and emulsifying agents. FGS® CONCRETE CONDITIONER is specifically manufactured to be used for maintenance of FGS PERMASHINE® Floors. FGS® CONCRETE CONDITIONER is a mild, concentrated cleaner that contains a measured amount of chemical densifier to aid in maintaining the gloss of your FGS PermaShine floor. In addition to economically cleaning your floor, regular use of FGS® CONCRETE CONDITIONER will help to restore slight, microscopic wear, called micro-pitting, that accompanies normal floor usage. Many cleaners leave a slight residue that over time may compromise the non-slip nature of the floor. For safety assurances, FGS® CONCRETE CONDITIONER has been formulated to rinse clean and not effect the slip profile of your floor. Features and Benefits:
FGS® Hardener PlusTM
FGS® HARDENER PLUSTM is a proprietary, chemical hardening solution that is formulated to increase the wear resistance and surface strength of concrete floors that have been mechanically ground, smoothed, and polished. Polished concrete floors treated with FGS® HARDENER PLUSTMlast longer than conventional concrete floors, cost less to maintain, reflect light better, hold a shine longer, are safe to use, and are guaranteed to resist dusting for a minimum of ten years. FGS® HARDENER PLUSTM is a water-based, VOC-compliant, odorless and environmentally safe component of this process.The FGS Permashine® System: FGS PermaShine® renews existing concrete floors that are dusting, worn, pitted and otherwise suffering from years of use and abuse, restoring them to an attractive, light reflective, and durable polished finish. New floors also benefit from the FGS PermaShine® process when installed after the concrete has cured sufficiently to resist the aggressive steps of grinding and polishing. The FGS PermaShine® process is installed only by factory trained and approved contractors, using approved equipment and only the best chemical treatments, in order to insure the highest possible quality and longest lasting finish.
L&M SealHardTM is a concrete sealer, densifier and chemical hardener. SealHardTMis a proprietary, colorless solution that penetrates concrete surfaces to seal densify, harden, dustproof and waterproof. It is VOC-compliant, environmentally safe, odorless and easy to apply. SealHardTM-treated floors are especially effective in protecting concrete floors subjected to heavy vehicle and foot traffic.Through a chemical-ion exchange process, SealHardTM develops internal bonds which densify the concrete substrate into a hardened, chemically-cured, homogeneous, concrete mass that resists abrasion, and reduces oil and water penetration. This chemical-ion exchange process begins after treatment and continues through the initial six months following application. SealHardTM creates an interpore molecular filter that protects concrete from carbonation and, at the same time, allows surfaces to breathe, permitting moisture vapor to ransmit naturally into the air. SealHardTM will not yellow, discolor, chip, peel or show unsightly wear patterns with use.SealHardTM is not a curing compound. Fresh, green concrete contains excess moisture that will inhibit the penetration of SealHardTM into the concrete surface and its ultimate effectiveness. Therefore, under normal conditions, L&M recommends using SealHardTM on concrete that is three or more days old.This product is licensed applicator applied only. Please call AS&G for a list of applicators.
Lythic Day 1TM
"It's like having an extra finisher on the jobsite."Day1 from Lythic Solutions is a new type of troweling aid and curing agent. This game-changing product has major benefits during finishing, and it improves the quality of the resulting slab. Easier Troweling, More Working TimeSpray on Day1 during finishing and you can hear the power trowel speed up. That's because Day1 reduces drag, meaning less operator fatigue and lower wear on equipment. Even more valuable, Day1 extends finishing time without adding excessive water. As you spray on Day1 and work it into the surface, it reacts with lime in the concrete to slow surface drying. This gives you 15-45 minutes extra to finish the slab right, and makes it easier to close it properly. When finishers try to buy extra time by adding water to the surface (sometimes called "blessing the slab"), it weakens the concrete and can cause dusting and other problems. Day1 makes extra water unnecessary. It strengthens the surface and eliminates dusting. By slowing surface drying, Day1 also helps prevent checking, crazing, and premature set. During field testing, several finishers reported that Day1: "saved the slab" that was "getting away" from them. Contractors described Day1 as, "like having an extra finisher on the jobsite." Day1 can improve every finishing job. In adverse conditions including wind, high heat, and low humidity, Day1 can make the difference between a satisfied customer and a costly call-back. Make Better Concrete Day1 becomes a permanent part of the concrete, and cures the slab in much the same was as a liquid membrane-forming curing compound, even though Day1 does not form a membrane, film or residue, and there is nothing to remove afterwards. Day1 closes the pore structure, so water is retained inside the concrete for longer, allowing proper cement hydration.
Lythic Densifier
The mission of a densifier is adding silica to the surface of concrete. Lythic Densifier with Reactive Colloidal Silica is 99.5% pure silica, suspended by charge repulsion in an ultra-low surface tension liquid by a proprietary, "green" manufacturing process. It increases the density of the concrete surface, making it less permeable to liquids. It increases the surface hardness, making it withstand abrasion and take a better polish. Lythic's nano-sized silica particles react highly effectively with lime in concrete, and bond directly to silica already in the slab. Reactive Colloidal Silica even bonds to and hardens decorative cementitious overlays that are low-lime and do not react with silicate densifiers. Lythic Densifier eliminates the problems of silicate densifiers.
Lythic Protector
Lythic Protector advances the effectiveness of traditional stain protectors by adding silica to the concrete, further toughening it against abrasion. Lythic Protector brings out color, giving a slight "wet look" that works excellently with exposed aggregate. It cures for foot traffic within 24 hours, and improves slip resistance. Lythic Protector also contains lithium for extra water repellency. It is shipped as a concentrate to save on shipping costs and environmental impacts.
