Starbucks To Open At Least 3,000 Stores Over Next Five Years, China To Get 1,500 Stores By 2015
Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX) Chairman and CEO Howard Schultz appeared on CNBC's "Closing Bell" where he went into detail about a two-hour shareholders meeting in which 5,000 of the company's investors sat down for some "brand building" coffee talk.
"I am cautiously optimistic about the economy," Schultz told CNBC's Maria Bartiromo Wednesday afternoon. "Despite the unemployment, despite the debt, consumers are spending and we are enjoying the same level of success that we've enjoyed the last 12 months in the U.S. business."
Schultz then delved into several key factors that Starbucks is counting on to increase revenues, including its partnership with Square, the mobile-payments service that allows customers to pay for products via iPhone or Android device, which Starbucks implemented in August.
"We made a $25 million investment in Square because of the seismic change in technology and specifically smartphones," Schultz said. "We are now the leading retailer and consumer brand in the world in terms of mobile payment transactions with over 3 million a week," he added.
The Starbucks CEO then went on to say Starbucks plans to open at least 3,000 stores over the next five years in the Americas, half of which will be in the U.S. The coffee chain will also open 1,500 stores in mainland China by the end of 2015, according to the chairman and CEO.
Despite the coffee chain's recent success in 2012, Schultz warned, "one has to be incredibly concerned about the fragile nature of Western Europe and what's happening in Cyprus and geopolitical issues that ultimately affect the United States."
Starbucks plans to keep the ball rolling by looking for ways to continue to distinguish itself from competitors. On Tuesday, Starbucks said it bought its first coffee farm in Costa Rica. Schultz said the farm will be used as a model to teach other coffee farmers around the world high-end sustainable practices.
"We believe there's an opportunity to use technology and best practices to cross varietals, not unlike the wine industry with grapes, and create micro lots of very special rare, high-quality coffees," he said.
"This will be the beginning potentially of other acquisitions we will make … to put us in a better position not only in terms of supply but differentiation in terms of quality," he added.

PEMBROKE PINES — The union representing 110 city employees has not dropped its contract demand that the city return to a four-day workweek, despite the city manager`s statements to the contrary, the union`s president said Thursday.
``All the articles, including a four-day workweek, are still being negotiated,`` said Juaniata Lewis, president of the Pembroke Pines Employees Association. ``Nothing has been signed. Until the contract`s signed, it`s still negotiable.
But James Cherof, the assistant city attorney negotiatng for the city, said there`s no question the union dropped its demand for a four-day workweek.
``They have absolutely withdrawn it,`` Cherof said. ``Whether they plan to place it back on the table we`ll find out at the next meeting.``
However, Cherof said that if the demand is reintroduced it would be considered bad faith on the union`s part.
``I think we`re very close to an agreement. If the union made a request for a four-day workweek, it would put us back to before the last meeting,`` he said.
On Oct. 19, City Manager Woody Hampton said the union had dropped its demand to go from a five-day to a four-day workweek. Hampton said if the change was made, it would affect about 250 city employees, excluding police and firefighters.
Lewis initially refused to confirm or deny whether the union dropped its demand. Most union members seem to want the four-day week, under which the city worked from August 1979 to September 1982. After hearing Hampton say the demand for a four-day week was dropped, several union members called Lewis asking for an explanation, according to Anne Peters, the union`s treasurer.
``(Lewis) is not giving us any straight answers,`` Peters said. ``She keeps saying wait until the Nov. 12 meeting, she`ll explain everything. We don`t want to wait until Nov. 12.``

text: To make the crêpes, sift the flour into a mixing bowl and stir in the salt and chives, make a well in the centre and add the egg, gradually add the milk and whisk until you have a smooth creamy batter. Cover and leave to stand for 30 minutes. To make the filling, melt the butter in a small pan and stir in the flour, gradually add the milk and cook stirring until you have a smooth thickened sauce. Stir in two thirds of the grated red Leicester and mustard. Heat the olive oil in a pan and gently fry the leeks and mushrooms until softened. Pour two thirds of the sauce over and mix well. To cook the crepes, heat a 20cm (8in) non stick frying pan and wipe with a little of the sunflower oil. Whisk the batter again and using a ladle, swirl a thin layer of the batter over the pan – just enough to give a thin coating. Cook for 2 minutes then flip over with a palette knife and cook the other side for a further 2 minutes. Stack onto a warmed serving dish and keep warm whilst you cook up the remaining batter - you should be able to make 8 crepes. Wipe out the pan with a little extra oil before you cook each crepe. Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 4, 180°C, fan 160°C. Spoon a little of the filling down the centre of each crepe and roll up, lift into an ovenproof dish. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the crepes and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake for 20 minutes. Serve hot - with a rocket and cherry tomato salad. See more Lunch recipes

IGN - Whether you're a Call of Duty fan or not, it is impossible to deny that each new entry in the franchise carries with it an insurmountable level of buzz, chaos, and retail insanity. The latest in the series, Black Ops II, is the most pre-ordered video game ever and will likely bring with its launch some of the biggest first-week sales numbers in the history of gaming on November 13th.
Most of these games cater to an audience completely different from the COD one, they seem like games that parents would get for their kids for Christmas.
these guys are game journalist working for IGN don't expect them to understand that their are other audience groups other than COD Group
But honestly, half of those games would've died with or without Black Ops 2. Pretty clever move by the devs.... Blame the death of these games on the "accidental" arrival of CoD.
Damn, I was really hoping that Monster High Skultimate Roller Maze was gonna hit its day-1 sales quota...oh well!
COD = Completely One Dimensional
COD fans think that the only game that matters that day is COD. As a father with two kids, I already was planning on buying Ben 10 and Monster High for my adolescent sons and daughter when I pick up my copy of Black Ops II.
While none of those two games, or the others on the list, will even come close to matching the sales COD will rack up, they will find a small niche with the gamers, young gamers, they are catering to.
All of those other games are games that the average gamer don't even care about?! They are all basically casual to children's games.
COD really doesn't have any competition on release when you look at the big picture here.
I hope recently released games go one sale that week like RE6, Dead or alive 5, Borderlands 2, dishonored or sleeping dogs cause I would definitely buy one of those instead:-)
I think he's trying to be funny and making out that only 12 year olds play COD
(just look at the list)
very lame and unprofessional.
That's Brian Altano for you. They do this all the time on IGN's Up At Noon.
I completely agree, there no true competition here.
Not really...cod is full of little kids
Usually, I would've rolled my eyes, but this was priceless.
thats is funny, however i have had very little experiance with children on cod ( i play on ps3) i have had children (or child like behaviour) on mics with setting switched so they come out really swqeaky, but i have never experianced trash talking kids before and ive played black ops and mw3, the closest thing would be when one smartass kid thought that adults didn't play cod and the kiwi told him he was old enough to be his dad, so there was that unpleastaness communication between those in one match but that was it. you guys are lucky, just so everyone knows Im at senior teenage years, so Im not a tween or 12-10 year old. man you guys are lucky i mean iv'e never had that experiance, i kinda feel left out, but who knows i might get luck this time black ops maybe there will be some arrogant, ignorant kids that i will outwit and disprove all their chilidish insults and insult their intelligence or basically point out their childish stupidity
with the parents must make sure they also have Cash on delivery
This list is for casuals but wonder book can hit it big time if advertised a bit for parents to buy for their kids. It's things like wonder books which can sell unexpected numbers and big numbers because it's geared towards kids
With Disney on board I believe wonder book will be a huge success
i saw wonder book at the EB games expo 2012 and it looked great a little bit i suppose maybe glitchy, or sometimes it maybe difficult to turn pages. but that was a demo which is all right with these sorts of games. for a childrens game it looks really entertaining as well as educational, in read and explore kind of way, the voice over kind just puts you into that atmosphere of harry potter.
The only thing going against Wonderbook is the kids of today's generation have the attention span of a rock. Meaning unless they are blowing stuff up or killing things, will they really give the time of day to sit down and read a book, even if it has some simulation scenarios on the TV?
Don't get me wrong, I think Wonderbook is a novel idea, but they are going to need tons of content to get this thing going. Having JK Rowling doesn't hurt either..
Neonridr, it always amuses me to hear such remarks from older generations, especially when they are of a generation producing children so lacking when it comes to attention span. It seems in western society it's easier to blame the children than the poor parenting that influences them from an early age.
As a father 3 kids I think Wonder Book is a great idea and might pick it up depending on the price.
People downplaying WB or Kinect have been on N4G way too long and need to realise that people on gaming website are a small majority compared to the casuals.
The only problem with wonder book is that Sony is the one making it which will make it an instant fail in the sales department.
If MS was the one releasing wonder book this think would probably beat Kinect as the fastest selling gadget of all time...Sony need to step up there marketing department and put WB in every TV commercial in America and every Subway as well.
WTF all these games look DOA to me to begin with...
I'd rather give those other games a try instead of another cod. They may be childish, but at least they do new, creative things in the gaming industry, unlike cod.
this is a joke for sure. he cant be serious about the list. =D
Very obscure list of games, most of these wouldn't have sold well regardless of COD.
Let's be fair... These games are being sent out to die no matter when they come out.
Wonderbook, kids cartoon game, racer, dancer, game that is doomed either way, 3DS rabbids, game directed at little girls....
Yeah, they sure are doomed because of COD.
I know, I almost thought it was a joke. What an idiot he's comparing apple to AK's.
I don't know about that moegooner88... I heard some kids, that couldn't have been older than 6, unsupervised, in a gamestop, arguing about Nuketown and other maps from Black Ops.
It's not a good thing that a game as effing stupid as COD has become so culturally ubiquitous. Big videogame corporations feeding us fetishistic representations of war... no thanks.
I am actually getting F1 Race Stars and MOH warfighters.. BLOPS is not on my list.. :)
The Wonderbook would be alright if Sony put some commercials on TV.
And could someone please explain to me how Ben 10 Omniverse wouldn't be sent out to die as the only thing released in the middle of a game drought?
Still needs advertising.
I think it's something really cool for kids
If schools and daycares get a look at it, Sony could make some serious money.
Do game companies usually advertise products that aren't available for purchase?
This whole Wonderbook thread is beyond retardation.
"The Wonderbook would be alright if Sony put some commercials on TV."
No. It never looked good to begin with so the commercials excuse won't pass.
"If schools and daycares get a look at it, Sony could make some serious money."
Because schools and daycare are very wealthy institutions? Don't you think they would spend that money on getting something more important than a gimmick book for kids?
"Do game companies usually advertise products that aren't available for purchase?"
Don't know if serious.
I'm tempted to get the BBC Dinosaurs one just for myself.
Unfortunately my daughter isn't old enough for this yet so i hope it continues into nextgen.
I agree Godmars290, it does need to be heavily advertised. Kids could really like and want Wonderbook for Christmas
Oh god, I don't even know if IGN is trying to do a joke or they are that retarded.
No wonder the site is going bankrupt.
I agree they forget at IGN that there are other gamers out their who are part of a different audience other than COD only or FPS only Gamers.
IGN is biased I don't listen to them at all.
So are all video game websites, for the most part. The bias comes down to the person who wrote the article.
LOL they should all be sent to die regardless of when they come out.
Those games aren't selling much no matter when they launched. The only one I've heard of from that group is Wonderbook, and the only reason I know that was because I clearly remembered the huge fail and 20+ minute "demo" at E3.
There has been zero advertisements for any of those games, COD coming out on the same day is irrelevant.
rabbids will probably be the only game that sells more than 1 copy
Many of these games were probably going to die any way.
Those games are already Dead on Arrival with or without Lack ops 2. I haven't heard on any of those
I honestly don't see a game on this list that will do better or worst with black ops on the market rabbids has always done well even without ads. and the rest are gonna be doa or unheard off until this point
Is this a joke? All those casual titles were going to die anyway
Well...at least i know when Kickbeat's releasing :L
Only one of those games I see doing ok, the rest seem like trash.
Sent to their graves? I haven't even seen or heard most of the titles listed in there....Except for Sony's Wonderbook, but that of which is like.... not anything expected to sell to begin with... Everything else is casual random kiddy-crap :/ And they're clumping it with what will be neglected due to a worldwide-known title, an FPS....that happens to be COD?
What a wonderful article, which seems to have the underlying purpose of Hyping COD rather than the topic(Which is 'Direct') about 'These games gonna suck due to this game', it's irrelevant.... This is just free publicity and Indirect Hyping.
Mothers ask for Monster High games ALL THE TIME at my store.
Wonderbook never had a chance even if it was released outside of COD's release month. The game is 3 years late during the tail end of the Harry Potter hype and when the Move had hype.
Stupidest article of the Week right here, Just because you release a game up against something as over rated as COD does not mean it's going to fail, I bought Resident Evil 6 a week after it released! When did day one become the be all end all of a games a games success? I truly wonder how many years it takes for people to just stop buying these "Fad Franchises" and THEY Die. Is it weird that when someone finds out I'm a gamer and they say "oh you play call of duty brah", I look at them like they just killed my dog... -_-
Wonderbook is coming out this year? :/
WOW what an objective article from a famous gaming website.
I am buying Book of Spells, Sports Champions 2 and Battle Royale before end of the year.
I'm not interested in Bang Bang you're dead Bang Bang you're dead Bang Bang you're dead Bang Bang you're dead Bang Bang you're dead.
I encourage studios who try to develop something new, unique and refreshing. FPSs suck so bad it's always the same, ALWAYS!!
I dont agree with Wonder book being there, I think Sony has a great opportunity with that game to really bring the younger audience to Playstation if they get the marketing right, for me though, COD is already DOA.
I'm really starting to believe that some of these pre-order and sales numbers thrown around for CoD are bull.
As of this moment I don't know of anybody who is interested in buying this year. In fact non of my adult friends, my son or his friends are interested or bought it last year. I work in a major UK city college with a student population of 16,000 and I haven't heard a single person mention it. Which is a far cry from two years ago when you couldn't turn a corner without overhearing somebody talking about getting the next CoD, and I couldn't get through a single class without somebody asking me if I was getting it.
I may very well be wrong, but the silence this year is deafening.
These games cater to a completely different audience than CoD. It's a different market - it's like saying that the new ferrari is going to sell horribly because a new Jeep is coming the same month.
Are you all retarded?! Its a joke article they're not being the slightest bit serious. I swear my hope for humanity deteriorates every living day you idiots are on this planet.

Whether you're a new iPhone user or the iPhone 5 is just another iPhone to add to your collection, we have some simple changes that you can make to make your iPhone 5 experience a much better one.
We have already shared our iPhone 5 Setup and Security Guide as well as tips on How to Get Better iPhone 5 Battery Life and now it's time to share some settings that iPhone 5 users should change right after receiving the brand new iPhone 5.
These changes will not only make your iPhone 5 experience a much better one as a whole, but some of them will also prevent you from annoying those around you with your smartphone habits.
Here are our top 10 settings to change immediately on the iPhone 5.
Change Ringtone
Plain and simple, the stock Marimba ringtone in iOS is tired and played out. So you'll want to do yourself and everyone else around you a favor by changing your ringtone to something new.
To change your ringtone, follow these steps.
- Tap Settings.
- Choose Sounds.
- Tap on Ringtone.
- Choose a standard ringtone.
- Or, select Store from the very top and buy a new ringtone.
You are also able to create custom ringtones using your music library in iTunes. This way, you won't have to pay money for the cost of a new ringtone for your iPhone 5. If that's what you wish to do, check out our How to Create Custom Ringtones and Alerts For the iPhone.
Turn off Keyboard Clicking
The clicking of the iPhone 5's virtual keyboard drives me nuts and it will do the same to those around you should you leave the option enabled. If you don't want to do that, you should at least know where the option is should you need to turn it off when you're somewhere that demand silence.
To turn off keyboard clicking, follow these steps.
- Head into Settings
- Tap on Sounds
- Scroll to the bottom and toggle Keyboard Clicks to Off.
Turn on Battery %
When you get the iPhone 5, it's battery meter won't show you one of its more useful features which of course is the percentage that you have left to work with. This is extremely important now that the iPhone 5 features 4G LTE which can suck up battery life when used. It's also just nice to have one so that you can better manage your battery life.
To get the battery life % to appear in your battery life icon, simply do this.
- Tap Settings.
- Choose General.
- Tap Usage.
- Scroll down and flip the Battery Percentage toggle On.
Once you follow these steps, you'll now see a % in your battery icon in the upper right corner.
Set up Passcode Lock
Those who have owned a smartphone in the past may have already set up a Passcode with the iPhone 5. If you haven't done this yet though, it's smart to do that right now to better protect your iPhone 5's contents in case of theft.
It's also able to prevent friends or unwanted eyes from snooping on your information. To set up a Passcode on your iPhone 5, follow these steps.
- Tap Settings.
- Choose General.
- Scroll down to Passcode Lock.
- Tap on Passcode Lock.
- Choose to Turn Passcode On at the top.
- Enter a 4 digit code you can remember.
Once that's complete, your iPhone will be more secure. Keep in mind, if you enter the wrong Passcode too many times, the phone will lock you out for a short amount of time.
Change Passcode Lock Timeout
If you use your iPhone 5 often, and I assume most of you do, you will want to adjust the Passcode lockout time so that you don't have to enter the iPhone's Passcode every time you pickup your iPhone 5 for use.
Fortunately, the process to change this is simple.
- Tap Settings.
- Choose General.
- Scroll down to Passcode Lock.
- Tap on Passcode Lock.
- Tap Require Passcode.
I generally like to use five minutes because I am constantly on my phone but you are able to adjust it to anywhere from immediately to four hours.
Link Up iMessages and FaceTime
Linking up your iMessages and FaceTime features across multiple devices is an extremely easy way to keep in touch with the people you care about, across your Apple products. For instance, because I have this set up, iMessages that are sent to my iPhone 5 phone number are also sent to my MacBook Air which means I don't need to pick up the phone to response.
Likewise, for FaceTime, my account is set up so that FaceTime calls come to my iPhone 5 as well as to my MacBook Air.
Setting this up is fairly simple.
For iMessages:
- Tap on General.
- Scroll down to FaceTime.
- Tap on Send & Receive.
Here, you can select where you want to receive your iMessages. Options include your phone number or an email address associated with your Apple ID. You're also able to add other email addresses as well should you need to.
For FaceTime:
- Tap on General.
- Flip the FaceTime toggle to On.
- Use your Apple ID or add an email address if necessary.
Those who are able to use FaceTime over Cellular might also want to flip that on at the bottom as well. It will allow you to use the service over 4G LTE or 3G connections.
Home Sharing
An extremely useful feature that you iPhone 5 users will want to turn on is called Home Sharing. Home Sharing is essentially a local version of iTunes Match and iCloud allowing you to access your iTunes music while you are on the same network.
If your phone and computer are on the same network, accessing your music is easy. Here's what you'll need to do in order to set Home Sharing up.
On your iPhone 5, follow these instructions.
- Tap on Settings.
- Choose Music.
- Enter your Apple ID and Password in the boxes at the bottom of the settings menu.
On your computer, follow these instructions.
- Open iTunes.
- Open iTunes Preferences.
- Click on the Sharing icon at the top of the Preferences.
- Check, Share my library on my local network.
It's that easy.
Turn Off Email Notifications
I get a lot of email and if you're like me, I suggest turning off your email notification sound effect as a way to keep your sanity. Personally, I turn email notifications completely off but you don't have to do that if you don't want to.
To change your email notification sound, or turn off the sounds all together, you'll follow these steps.
- Choose Settings.
- Tap on Sounds.
- Scroll down to New Email and tap it.
- To turn it off, tap on Choose None.
- To pick a new tone, choose from the list below or click Store in the top right corner.
This is a great time to shut off other notifications as well. If you wish to do that, head to our How To Remove an App From the iPhone Notification Center.
Automatic Downloads
Turning on a feature called Automatic Downloads is a great way to ensure that apps that you download through iTunes arrive on your iPhone 5 automatically. Setting this up is easy, but it's going to require you to change some settings on both your iPhone 5 and your computer.
To turn on App auto downloads on your iPhone 5, follow these steps.
- Choose Settings.
- Tap on iTunes & App Stores.
- Switch the Automatic Download toggles for Books, Apps and Music.
- If you have a limited data plan, make sure that Use Cellular Data is set to off otherwise you may rack up some unnecessary data.
Also, you'll want to make sure that you have the right Apple ID listed down there at the bottom of the screen.
Next, you'll need to enable the setting in iTunes.
- Open iTunes.
- Open iTunes Preferences.
- Click on Store in the middle of the preference icons.
- Check the Automatic Downloads check boxes.
- Click OK.
Sync Facebook and Twitter Accounts
iOS 6 offers powerful integration with both Twitter and Facebook which allow you to post to Facebook or Twitter manually or by using Siri provided you have synced up your iPhone 5 with both social networks.
If you use Twitter or Facebook or both, you'll want to sync your accounts up with the iPhone 5 and iOS. To do that, follow these steps.
For Twitter:
- Tap Settings.
- Scroll down to Twitter.
- If you don't have the Twitter app installed at this point, install it.
- Select Add Account.
Now, you'll be able to easily post to Twitter using iOS 6's new Sharing features as well as through Siri, if you have access to her.
For Facebook:
- Tap Settings.
- Scroll down to Facebook.
- If you don't have the Facebook app installed at this point, install it.
- Select Add Account and enter your information.
You can down send photos to Facebook using iOS 6's new Sharing features and you can also post direction from Siri. In addition, iOS 6 can pull information from Facebook itself which will update your phone with relevant events in the calendar or update your contact info.
If you need more help, check out our How to Set Up Twitter in iOS 6 to Tweet & Share Faster and How to Set Up Facebook in iOS 6.

Sarasota is rapidly being discovered by sophisticated buyers worldwide. With an average yearly temperature of 71 degrees F., a brisk economy, and one of the leading cultural communities in the county, Sarasota is attracting upper bracket buyers for both primary and second homes. Waterfront properties have double, tripled, or quadrupled in value during the past five years.
Previewing Property
With so many housing opportunities, I consider it my duty and pleasure to preview all properties that meet your profile and requirements, and to provide you with a thorough portfolio of prospective homes. Some of these properties include virtual tours, so you will be well-versed about your purchasing options prior to visiting the sites. Once you have selected the properties you want to preview, I'll streamline your tour, help with hotel reservations, reserve tickets to some of Sarasota's many cultural activities, and serve as your guide and hostess. Private jets can choose between Sarasota International (SRQ) or Venice airports.
Evaluating Property Potential
Although most of the luxury homes in golf course communities are new, many waterfront houses are of the "Old Florida" style and are in need of renovation or complete rebuilding. Also, unlike newer houses on the mainland, waterfront properties are quite unique from each other and require specialized knowledge to evaluate their value and potential. In addition to my own expertise, I enlist the services of architects, contractors, appraisers and other building professionals to help you decide which properties offer the highest potential for your specific use. Some of the best waterfront values are to be found in the "rough."

This Autumn I was delighted to be asked by Beatrice and Robin to design their Wedding Invitation for their Summer 2016 celebrations.
They requested I create the Invitation using paper cut out collage & for themselves & their 2 boys to be featured; a family portrait. The text was hand written in the centre & the size A5, once folded.
Earlier this week the postman dropped the printed Invitation through my letterbox, & here it is nestled in with the Christmas decorations on the mantel piece. This was my first paper cut out Invitation, & I'm rather pleased with it so hopefully it won't be my last.
Perhaps I'll make a Family Christmas card for my gang in a similar style, next Christmas. Or maybe you'd like one for your family? Do get in touch: email@example.com

CHICAGO -- The Blackhawks made one more lineup change prior to Game 3 against Vancouver Sunday night at United Center as center Jake Dowell replaced Ryan Johnson. Dowell will start the game centering the fourth line between Fernando Pisani and the other new addition, John Scott.
Dowell played in 9:24 in Game 1, registering a hit and one shot on goal. Pisani replaced him in the lineup for Game 2.
Johnson played in each of the first two games against the Canucks, averaging 8:53 of ice time with zero shots on goal and one hit. He won six of 10 faceoffs. Johnson played in 33 regular season games after signing with the club on Dec. 17. He had 1 goal and 5 assists and won 63.1 percent of his faceoffs (197-of-312).
As expected, Vancouver will have Mikael Samuelsson and Raffi Torres in the lineup Sunday night. Samuelsson sat out Game 2 with an undisclosed illness and Torres hasn't played yet in the series due to a four-game suspension that dated back to the regular season.
Samuelsson had an assist in Game 1.
Cody Hodgson and Aaron Rome will not play for Vancouver.

A demand for nursing home laundry operations
James M. Berklan
It took a while, but the tentacles of a deadly fungal infection at a New Orleans children's hospital might wind up affecting the other end of healthcare's aging spectrum: nursing homes.
Linens, towels and gowns have been identified by researchers as the likely carriers of the deadly fungus mucormycosis. As a result, the head of the Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council (HLAC) has called for a consensus on laundry processing standards.
"Hospitals, nursing homes and all healthcare facilities should demand it," said Gregory Gicewicz, president of HLAC.
Gicewicz's Sterile Surgical Systems firm processes laundry for nursing homes and other healthcare facilities around its Tumwater, WA, base. It is one of more than 200 entities now accredited by HLAC.
"There are millions of standards out there, but the problems is there are lots of different standards from different groups," Gicewicz told me Tuesday. "We've put together standards — more than 600 of them — based on all of these organizations that have standards or laws."
He likens the process to a provider seeking Joint Commission accreditation.
"It's kind of up to the hospital or long-term care facility to monitor that it's being done correctly. If you're accredited by HLAC, it's a pretty good sign it [laundry] is being done accurately and correctly."
It also could mean the difference between life and death, Gicewicz pointed out. In 2008 and 2009, five children who were at Children's Hospital in New Orleans succumbed to complications from mucormycosis.
The culprit was identified only in this month's edition of the Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, which ran a report called "Mucormycosis Outbreak Associated with Hospital Linens." Shoddy transport of clean linens and possibly other items led to the infections that killed the children. The cases mysteriously unfolded months apart from one another, making it tougher to connect the dots.
"It's essential to make sure clean textiles are separated from those that are not. Many, many times this is not happening," warned Gicewicz. "In many places, there's something going in the washer, right next to something coming out that's cleaned. Does that mean there's always a huge illness or sickness or death coming out of that? Probably not, but I would want to be assured that's not happening."
Since 2005, HLAC has been in the business of sending inspection teams into facilities to address any shortcomings and help correct them. The tab is $5,000, and that doesn't include any corrective steps that are assigned. The accreditation team makes a one-day visit and an approval rating lasts for three years.
"I'm a small owner-operator and I wouldn't dream of not going through this process. It's credibility to my customers," Gicewicz explained. "It made our people more educated and made us safer. It brought us to another level of expertise and credibility. It's just assurance for patient or resident safety."
Most of HLAC's accredited providers are hospitals, its president acknowledged, and most of those are contracted services (not on-site laundry operations). But that can change quickly — there hasn't been much direct outreach to long-term care yet, Gicewicz pointed out.
The accreditation team represents a wide range of stakeholders, he explained. It includes professionals with government agency experience, infection control nurse specialists, and laundry-service providers.
But HLAC accreditation is not simply a bunch of vendors trying to stir up more business, he emphasized. It's actually the infection-control nursing experts and former government employees who want the standards to say "everything has to be completely sterile and it takes about 8 gazillion dollars to make sure the laundry is completely in a clean room and other completely unrealistic goals," he said. The owners-operators are less rigid and are willing to speak up when they think suggested policies might be "overkill."
"For better or worse, the tragedy that happened in New Orleans is going to drive a lot of awareness," Gicewicz noted. "We're seeing more and more hospitals insisting on accredited organizations to do their linens."

The Attendance Improvement Office (AIO) was formed by the Elk Grove Unified School District in 2015 with the desired intent to monitor and improve the attendance of all students within the district.
The AIO is involved in a pilot program that covers four high school regions and their feeder middle and elementary schools. The four high school regions are Elk Grove, Florin, Laguna Creek and Valley. All schools utilize a number of research-based interventions that are designed to improve attendance and offer support in identified areas that may be impacting attendance.
The interventions may include documented student and parent communication, Student Attendance Review Team (SART) meetings, Partners Against Chronic Truancy (PACT) meetings, home visits with law enforcement, and Truancy Court. AIO often includes the Student Support Centers, district nurses, Foster Youth Services, Drug and Alcohol Services. Teen Parenting Resources, and two community based counseling services to assist with a variety of needs that impact children and their attendance.
School Attendance Review Board (SARB)
School Attendance Review Board (SARB) was established by the California legislature in 1975 for the purposes of maintaining a better effort to meet the needs of students with attendance and/or behavior problems and promoting the use of alternatives to the juvenile court system. SARB seeks to understand why students are experiencing attendance and/or behavior problems, and serves as a vehicle to correct those problems when existing school and community resources have been exhausted. SARB is specifically charged with funding solutions to unresolved student attendance and discipline problems by bringing together, on a regular basis, representatives of the multiple agencies such as Healthy Start Family Resource Centers, Foster Youth Services, and representatives from the Department of Human Assistance, Child Protective Services, the County Office of Education, Probation and other law enforcement agencies, such as Sheriffs, Police and the District Attorney's Office.

Marley and Me
It seems like such a light funny movie, which it is, but it is also an very emotional story that includes love and loss. I am easy to cry in movies, but not sob. Usually silent tears streaming down my cheeks. As soon as things weren't looking good for Marley, I was gone. And the sobbing did not stop until like a half hour after the movie was done (at least). The same happened for the book (from which I read first). And much to my surprise, writing about this, I am now crying. It's just so sad :'(
I had a yellow lab named Andy once. He was hit by a car and I never got to say goodbye. I had a black lab named Luke after that and we had him put to sleep. I wasn't there but I hug him, sobbing, saying I loved him so much before my mom drove off with him trying his hardest to look out the trunk's window. Every time I see Marley die, I see both Luke and Andy dying at the same time. Need I say more; I break down, screaming in tears every time I see that one close up shot of him shutting his soft, little eyes one lat time.
At first I was happy in this movie but when Marley ran away and they announced Marley was dead I started to cry my eyes out. Marley was the cutest dog ever. I cried when I went to bed I cried in my sleep I cried in the morning and evening and any time of day because of the death of the poor dog. I'm very easy to make cry. In Ariel I was scared for the dog when the Prince was saving him not for the Prince. That shows my love for dogs. Although I also get sad when humans die.
This movie is the saddest movie I have seen. It shows the struggle of building a family and how a dog really is man's best friend. This movie gets you so attached to Marley you feel like he was your dog the whole time. It makes the ending that much sadder. Great movie
I couldn't stand to watch it. I really hate seeing animals like that. I cried my eyes out when I went to sleep that night. I am surprised I made it to the end without crying as much as I thought I would. I just don't like the twist, the sad twist, in that movie. But still, a good movie.
From the start of the movie I was pretty excited, but when the family connected I also have gotten pretty connected to the movie and laughing for the most part. Once it hit the end I straight out cried and couldn't stop for at least 10 minutes and trying to comprehend on what just happened.
I was crying so much, but I really love this movie I watched it twice and both times I was crying. I think this should be number 1!.
I think the titanic is sad but this is more sad!
I just love this movie and I can watch it 100times and cry every time
Saddest movie ever!
So if you guys wanna watch a sad movie this is the movie your looking for!
Jesus I had to watch this in school and I don't cry. I try not too. but boogers where all on my jacked sleeve and tears ran down my face. I hid my face though. I'm a 16 year old 206 male and I love animals. I had to put down my Sasha and seeing that movie reminded me so much of her. I love you sasha
Anyone who has ever gone through their lives with a pet they truly love and then lost would find this, Oviedo incredibly sad.. It's amazing how our lives outside of our pets are brought into our pets lives. They see sadness in us (especially dogs), happiness, and everything in between and they are slays there until the end. It's unbelievable
When I watched this film I thought about what it would be like if my dog died. Now she's dead watching it brings back so many memories, I burst into tears uncontrollably.
I thought this was going to be a happy movie for animal lovers, not the kind that shatters your heart into a thousand pieces. Boy was I wrong.
Marley and me and Hachi are definitely best as they bring in dogs. It's sad because of how loyal and loving dogs are in comparison to humans, that's why most of the top 10's shouldn't even be on the list. A perfect example of this being Titanic.
When I saw this in theaters the beginning made me think it was a happy movie. Well I was way off. I saw it in theaters and at the end I was almost in tears. I look at it now and I can't help but blab like a little baby
Amazing movie that connects you with this dog like he was your own. You just fall in love with Marley and then there is the inevitable loss. So sad but such a lesson in the how to live life and deal with death and taught by a dog.
A wonderful movie. Makes you think about any animal you have ever had as a pet. I was beyond crying, more like bawling. So sad was this movie that I don't think I can ever bring myself to watch it again.
The only movie that ever made me cry, and I'm not a dog person, I like cats. On the bright side, you get more more Marley in the second movie. Your whole family will enjoy this beautiful, yet touching film.
I actually just finished watching this movie. It was so sad and I was crying so hard. I actually had to put my yellow lab down a year ago due to cancer. This movie is so heartbreaking and powerful.
This movie is good, yet it's so sad. Marley forms a great connection with his owners, and, being a dog owner myself, I love seeing a good relationship between a dog and his or her owner or owners.
I have seen this film and I couldn't control my tears this was so so sad definitely recommend this film for sensitive people like me. Get the tissues ready
You just cry and cry. Marley being put down? Why was it on screen unlike My Dog Skip (I still cried at that because I have a Jackie of my own and I love him)? You just have to cry for him.
Marley&me brought me to tears only at the end, but has the beginning started it was a true comedy Jewel that persuades you to buy another puppy even if you already have Four.
I love this movie do so much it is so sad and if you don't think this movie is sad at all you don't have feelings I cried so much my pillow was so so so wet it should be number 1
In my opinion this movie is sadder than titanic. I was crying the first thing I realized the dog was gonna die. Being a dog person, I cried my heart out. :*( I loved marley.
I cried so much. This movie and Toy Story 3 are my most sad films ever. In my opinion. Plus I love dogs so I was crushed when I found out Marley dies at the end of the film.
If I was ever going to cry during a movie it would be in Marley and me. A dog dying is so much sadder than a human dying. When my old lab boy goes I'm not sure how I'll cope.

We at Deadline toil all day to inform, entertain and occasionally turn a good phrase, but the stabs at creativity don't stop with us. Our commenters can be a hard bunch, but some of them come up with some good lines that amuse us to no end. On the tail of today's story about a new Ben-Hur at MGM, the commenter JJ didn't seem as enthusiastic as the studio, and offered what he considered a better idea: "I'd rather see Adam Sandler in 'Ben-Him/Ben-Hur.'
That's the best one I've seen since I broke a story that Open Road would release the Ashton Kutcher-starrer jOBS, about Apple visionary Steve Jobs. Seconds later, thetruth opined: "An idiot playing a genius. Perfect." That was pretty good, but the comment that made me laugh hardest since I've been at Deadline was one that came not only at my expense, but the legendary lady who brought me over here. I wrote a catty piece about a lawsuit between the director of The Human Centipede and the film's original star. It was a development I said I hoped would doom their proposed re-team on a third installment of that vile horror franchise. One commenter took exception, ending his critique of me with the line: "What I wouldn't give to see Mike and Nikki sewn ass to mouth." A little harsh, but it made us both laugh.

In addition, we look forward to working with our clients on a broad range of process development and optimisation activities in this innovative centre," said Dominic Carolan, CEO, NIBRT.
The new center will also support GE BioPark Cork; a GE-managed campus including four prefabricated, off-the-shelf biologics factories owned by independent biopharma companies manufacturing proprietary medicines, creating up to 500 jobs. The training center at NIBRT is where the personnel learn on the technologies that will be used at BioPark.
"The biopharma industry is growing rapidly; of the top ten therapeutics on the market today, eight are biopharmaceuticals. Our customers are constantly looking for flexible ways to improve capacity and the efficiency of their manufacturing operations. We need to foster innovation and partner with the best to respond to this need – with the NIBRT partnership and GE BioPark Cork we are doing exactly this," said David Radspinner, General Manager, BioPark, GE Healthcare.
The NIBRT-GE Single-Use Centre of Excellence is run by NIBRT and GE is the technology provider, delivering a fully integrated biomanufacturing platform based on single-use technologies to the center. The training activities are expected to be operational in autumn 2017, and the training offering is open for registration after the opening event. The partnership is initially signed for three years with the objective to upgrade the equipment after that, so that NIBRT would always have the top-of-the-line equipment at their institute.

Hey I'm 18 and have been lifting since I was in 7th grade and am now a senior. I'm interested In the dball cycle over the dianabol but have a few questions. The first question is do I need to take a test booster with it? Although it is recommended Ik if you mess with your body's natural production at a young age it can screw up your production of it. My next question is about after you finish it. I'm seeing stuff about if the effects last and what I'm asking is if the dball effects of muscle growth wear off or do you lose the muscle you gained. What iv got from reading is if you just take the pills daily without test booster which is my option I'm really wanting to take, after my cycle runs out I won't just lose muscle or stop growth will I? Thanks for you're time and get back to me asap as I'm looking to order it soon

Double G, Dreams and the Defacto Documentarian
Dreams do come true. At least filmmaker Christine Lee thinks so. And she's determined to convert anyone in the 'Doubters Club,' too. Ten years ago, before she was married or had her two daughters and well after she'd worked as an editor on "Any Given Sunday," Cookie's Fortune" and "Natural Born Killers," she met her destiny at the Congo Room in Los Angeles, California. Within moments of hearing the daKAH Orchestra's resonant strains of "A Rainy Day In East LA," her life changed.
"I totally got it. There were young musicians playing at a very high level: jazz, hip hop, funk. It was the orchestra I wish I could have been a part of." Christine says.
"I played viola in the high school orchestra, which," Christine says, "was never considered very glamorous. But," she quickly adds, "in daKAH, violists are one of the most flamboyant sections in the orchestra."
She immediately connected with the Maestro Geoff "Double G" Gallegos and began shooting short segments of the orchestra's rehearsals and performances including a memorable event at Disney Concert Hall in downtown Los Angeles.
"I became his defacto documentarian," Christine says, "when he asked me to help with a Durfee Foundation Grant. Durfee awards 3 Los Angeles artists $25,000 to continue their art. We wrote and made this funny video and he got the grant. It seemed natural to continue. By then the orchestra was still growing exponentially and they were getting bigger and bigger venues. It was a very exciting time to be following around a young conductor on the rise."
Christine crisp story telling and stellar editing skills bring a bell like clarity to her 10 year chronicle of the young men and women in "Hip Hop Maestro." Over the span of the film's life, Christine had two daughters and continued to edit any chance she got.
"I think, had Double G not been 1) such a great composer and 2) such a compelling person, all this footage could have easily sat in a box, on shelf somewhere. Motherhood could have been an excuse to not finish the documentary." she says. "But when I realized that 10 years was upon us and daKAH was still playing concerts, it was somehow easier to see the path that daKAH took and why it was important to finish it."
The film, which won an Audience award for documentary at Dances with Films last year, follows the young men and women of daKAH and Double G as they learn, grow and move forward in their own music careers.
"It's very hard to go to any concert in LA and not bump into a daKAH musician." she says. "I've even seen them on Jay Leno, on the Academy awards, at the Hollywood Bowl, in commercials even." She estimates that Double G has supported more than 300 musicians in Los Angeles."
"Hip Hop Maestro" will be shown on Saturday, October 15th at the 34th Annual Mill Valley Film Festival. The daKAH orchestra has been invited to play a concert at the Closing Ceremony of the entire festival on October 16th. Christine and Double G are hoping to raise travel and expenses for 31 players-the venue's maximum capacity-and have created a campaign on Kickstarter.com. To date, they have 65 backers and have raised $7,500.
With any luck–and the support of their fans–they'll make 31 more kid's dreams come true. For Christine Lee, that's already happened.

SSE Riga students from Belarus network with LATBEL and the Embassy of Belarus
On March 20th, first-year SSE Riga students from the Republic of Belarus met with LATBEL (the Society for Promotion of Latvian- Belarusian Economic Relations) and officials from the Embassy of Belarus in Latvia.
The event was a success; among LATBEL members present at the meeting there were companies representing several industries, e.g., peat, construction, engineering, finance, law, etc. Students had a chance to learn about these businesses, and companies could meet potential future interns.
Ten Belarusian students are currently studying in the SSE Riga BSc programme. Swedish Government Grants for financing studies are available for applicants from Belarus, and hopefully SSE Riga will welcome even more students from Belarus in the nearest future.

JACKSON Miss. (Reuters) - Chris McDaniel, a Tea Party-backed Mississippi U.S. Senate candidate, is preparing a possible legal challenge to his defeat in last month's Republican primary after supporters spent Monday sorting through voting records in dozens of counties, campaign officials said.
The conservative state senator has blamed his loss to U.S. Senator Thad Cochran on what he describes as illegal voting by Democrats who favored the six-term incumbent.
The primary election is scheduled to be certified on Monday evening by the state Republican party, which will forward the results to the Mississippi Secretary of State's Office, party spokesman Bobby Morgan said.
McDaniel and his supporters allege that the Democrats in question voted in the Democratic primary and then in the Republican runoff, which is against election rules.
"There were several thousand absolute ineligible votes," Mitch Tyner, a lawyer for the McDaniel campaign, told reporters on Monday. "We want to weed those out."
McDaniel lost the June 24 runoff to Cochran by more than 6,700 votes. Tyner declined to specify how many voting irregularities the McDaniel campaign had uncovered, or how many of those resulted from crossover voting.
The campaign, which has also vowed to review absentee ballots, has not made public evidence backing its allegations of wrongdoing.
The Cochran campaign, which courted black Democrats before the runoff to broaden its base, has dismissed McDaniel's assertions as unfounded.
Cochran campaign supporters were in all 82 county courthouses on Monday to monitor the review of ballot boxes, with only a few crossover votes in evidence, Cochran spokesman Jordan Russell said.
"As the process moves forward, the conversation is shifting from wild, baseless accusations to hard facts," Russell said by email. "As we have said from the beginning, the run-off results are clear: the majority of Mississippians voted for Senator Thad Cochran."
If McDaniel chooses to fight the results, he must first challenge them with the state Republican party, said Pamela Weaver, spokeswoman for the Secretary of State's office. If the party does not grant him a new election, he can take his case to state court, she said.
A court challenge would likely face an uphill battle, said Matthew Steffey, an election law expert at the Mississippi College School of Law.
"It's hard to overturn elections, and it should be," Steffey said. "Unless the process itself is corrupt, courts are reluctant to get involved."
