Going to the X Games is intense. There are a ton of people, you are always getting yelled at for trying to go where you want, and there's crazy shit happening all around you. Sometimes you need to just go somewhere and chill. Well this year there was such a place. TheGoodLife! teamed up with Sailor Jerry and TheGoodLife! Cabin was born. You didn't need a wristband, or anything to get into the cabin, you just needed to know where it was. Once you made it you could get a hair cut from OG Kevin of Frank's Chop Shop, a tattoo from Downtown Terry Brown, or just have a nice Sailor Jerry rum drink and play a game of dominoes. It was the perfect place to break up the madness and just kick it with the friends. Check out this gallery, and next year at the X Games keep your ear to the buzz, and maybe you'll find yourself at the Cabin.

Teavana 2012 Discontinued Teas
Here is a link to the list of the 18 teas Teavana is retiring in the Fall.
I'm slightly taken aback that they are retiring 5 white teas this year (they only got rid of one last year), but I can see most of these didn't sell. I'm very surprised they are getting rid of Huang Shan Mao Feng and really hope they don't just replace it with Emerald Mao Feng (unless they want to offer it for cheap). Temple Peaks couldn't survive even with a couple name changes.
No surprise that Zocolatte Spice didn't survive the year, little more that Auspicious Ayame didn't, but it was a bit to similar to Dancong (crosses fingers for a Taiwaneese Ooolong). Will not be sad to see Sweet Oolong Revolution go (even being a pumpkin fan I couldn't get into this one) and good riddance to Yumberry and Cocoa Praline Tart. I like mixing Jinga Citrus Twist and Ginseng Vitality with Gyokuro when I was sick, but never really sold the latter and was't fond of Lemon Lime Kampai.
What do you all think, any favorites you're sad to see go?
OMG!!!! I'm so glad you posted this! I LOVE the Swiss Vervaine as my bedtime tea and when I have a sore throat. The Frutto Bianco and Shanghai Orchid are among my favorites. I love the Heavenly sale too but can't risk not getting any of these.
The only benefit is that there will be new teas – which I love to enjoy. Teavana is one of my favorite places to go since I can smell them and decide.
I agree with you on the Sweet Revolution – LOVE pumpkin but could just not get past the smell on this one.
I have fallen in love with the Swiss vervaine as well! Anyone know of anything similar??
Nope – that's why I bought out what my store had – about 3 pounds! LOL
It's such a large mixture of ingredients – I'm so sad to lose it.
I can only hope that the Huang Shan Mao Feng will be replaced by a similar, high quality, straight, Chinese green tea. This has been my staple, the only tea even worth touching, at work.
Damn, I actually really liked the Siwss Vervaine. Not all the time, but it's good with honey for a sore throat. Maybe I'll buy 4oz or something, since I've already got 2 or 3 floating around. Thanks for posting!
I wouldn't be sad to see Aztec Fire go, though I highly doubt it will, I've talked to a couple of people who love it. lol…ok I'm mostly kidding, just because I didn't like it doesn't mean I would be a meaniehead and wish for it to be gone. I just tried the Strawberry Paraiso on Wednesday, I like it. My favorite tea from there is Zingiber Ginger Coconut, though unfortunately the last couple of times I had it, it sucked. It is possible that it is part of the original packet I had gotten when I 1st started buying from there, I hadn't gotten a tin for it, I had assumed that it would be good for a couple of months.. In a couple of weeks I am going to get some more, but if I continue to not like it anymore then that will be the last. Which I hope doesn't happen, because like I said, that is my favorite tea.
When do they usually start discounting these teas?
Well I can only go based on what they did last year, note this is for in stores, some of the retiring teas are already out of stock. The new teas should come in at the end of September or early October (I'm sure they'll make an announcement), whatever is left in the big canisters on the tea wall of the retired teas will get weighed out into small bags (2oz) to give away with every purchase of $25 or so. Then what is left in the stock room in sealed 2 lb bags will stay there till the Heavenly Sale, the day after Christmas and will be put into cheap tins and marked off 50%, whatever doesn't sell in a week or two will be marked down to 75%. Last year they also marked down some teas on the wall that weren't selling very well (their new Darjeeling, the Dan Cong that gets over looked due to Monkey Picked Oolong being so heavily promoted, as well as some less popular flavored blends they decided not to discontinue and probably have too much volume of). There will be select merchandise as well, gift sets, tea sets, cups, coasters, tumblers even cast-iron. Some of these will be going away for good, others they will just temporarily promote. But hard to say if they'll do things any different this year. I know they got some feedback asking for Black Friday sales, but I don't know if they'll do anything this year.
Does anyone know if Teavana made a tea like SpecialTeas 'Vienna Winter Green' after they bought them? They might have changed the name or something. I don't know much about Teavana, so anyone else would know more than I do!
Sweet Oolong Revolution was my absolute favorite. Can't find anything as good in the oolong category today, I am very disappointed. I have found some details of what was in it, and I have a very small amount left. I will be working on blending my own replacement, unless someone out there can help: Any to sell? Any information on what was in it? Anybody found anything close?
Base appears to be Oolong tea, pumpkin pieces, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, candied papaya, nutmeg and rose petals. I'm searching pure oolong teas to find something close to the tightly curled leaf variety they that was in it. Pumpkin will take some experiments. Papaya is easy, the others I'll adjust to taste. Who knows, when I get there, I might be able to save $$ blending my own.
Good luck finding a replacement sfendt! Just an FYI any of that tea the store had left in sealed bags (or that corporate has in its warehouse) will be going on sale the day after Christmas, if its like last year it will start at 50% off then whatever doesn't sell in a few days to a week will drop to 75%
Is there a list of the new teas that will be replacing them? I didn't see anything on their web site.
They were replaced a couple months ago: http://www.teavana.com/the-teas/new-teas
I guess they don't know that Wulong and Oolong are the same thing…silly Teavana.
They know, they just use wulong when it suits them to sound exotic. Last year it was Auspicious Ayame a darker oolong (could be because it's from the Wu Dong Mountains) this year its a flavored green oolong inspired by South America. Perhaps Teavana just likes alliteration. Wild Orange Wulong Oolong, WOWO!
Maybe. I find it funny. :)
I was one of those crazy people who liked Scarlet Cloud!
runs off to stock up
I know~
It's kind of an inconsistent one sometimes, but it kind of makes it a fun surprise every time… :)
It's on sale now! $3.75/2oz It was sold out on the site last night, and I was so disappointed, figuring it was gone to me forever. (I don't like close enough to Teavana to just walk in.) It came back this morning, so I got some. Hope you're able to, too!
Yes, I was watching the site like a hawk and managed to get it and other teas on sale too. Thanks for thinking to tell me this though, you're very thoughtful :)

AIKEN, S.C. – Being short-handed due to injuries was one of the many challenges the Georgia Southwestern Hurricanes faced in their Saturday evening road match-up against the USC Aiken Pacers (14-3, 8-1 PBC). With the mantra of "next man up", the Blue & Gold would shoot themselves in the foot via a season-high 26 turnovers and drop the decision by a score of 81-74.
The turnover bug hit the Georgia Southwestern offense early and often. The epidemic was highlighted by the fact the Hurricanes had more turnovers (26) than made field goals (24). The usually-stout GSW defense struggled to get consistent stops as they would finish the game without a block shot and only five steals.
The Hurricanes shot a respectable 24-52 (46.2%) from the field, 11-22 (50.0%) from three-point range and 15-20 (75.0%) from the charity stripe. But the good shooting wasn't enough to overcome the 38 Pacer points off of turnovers and their 54.5% shooting from the field.
Two nights after scoring a career-high 32 points, senior guard Evan Mobley would score 30 points on 9-17 shooting. Sophomore Colin Slotter would also get into the scoring act for GSW as he scored 24 points, which tied his season high. Slotter also scored 24 points against Palm Beach Atlantic back in November.
For USC Aiken, it was a balanced attack. Aiken had five double-digit scorers, which were led by Rick Alderman with 17 points. Also scoring in double figures Ronald Zimmerman (16 points), Re'mon Nelson (15 points), Chase Holmes (ten points) and Joel Gierbolini (ten points).
The game began with Evan Mobley picking up where he left off Saturday night. The senior opened the game with three made baskets from behind the arc. It was an early encore to his career-high 32 points two nights earlier at Augusta State. GSW made four of their first five shots, but the shooting was minimized by seven GSW turnovers in the game's first five minutes.
By the game's second media timeout with 9:51 to go until the halftime break, GSW trailed by a score of 15-16. This was due in large part to their twelve turnovers in the first ten minutes of play. Mobley's eleven early points helped the Hurricanes get out of the gate with six of ten shooting from the field.
The game would go into the halftime break with USC Aiken leading GSW 40-33 compliments of their early hot shooting. Aiken would go into the break shooting 59.1% from the field, which was coupled with 90.9% shooting from the foul line.
GSW shot the ball well, but not quite as well. The Blue & Gold made 48% of their field goal attempts including 5-10 from three-point range. Yet 18 GSW turnovers were converted into 25 USC Aiken points off turnovers, which contributed to the seven-point halftime deficit.
Mobley lead all scorers with 18 points, which accounted for 54.5% of the Hurricanes' scoring in the first half. Behind Mobley was Colin Slotter with eight points.
USC Aiken was led by Ronald Zimmerman who scored eleven points in the first half on three of four shooting from the field. The Pacers also had a pair of players, Rick Alderman and Chase Holmes, who both scored eight points in the game's first half.
The second half would open the Hurricanes continuing to struggle with turnovers. The Pacers would take advantage by upping their lead from seven to 13 within five minutes to open the half. Despite tying their season high in turnovers (23) with 10:45 left to play, GSW would pull to within six points thanks to a Milos Kluet up-and-under score and a Colin Slotter breakaway lay-up.
The Pacer lead was at ten with four minutes to play when lone, remaining post player, Milos Kleut, would foul out after going for seven points and nine rebounds. The Aiken lead would hover around that ten point difference until the final minute.
Georgia Southwestern would trail by as little as three points in the final minute as the Hurricanes elected to foul after made three-pointers, which was successful as the Pacers missed a handful o f free throws in the final 60 seconds. But the "Hack-a-Pacer" strategy would give way after GSW began missing shots and Aiken began making free throws to push the lead back to seven by game's end.
The loss puts the Georgia Southwestern at 11-5 overall, 2-5 in Peach Belt play. The Hurricanes will look to circle the wagons and regroup as they will play host to Francis Marion and UNC Pembroke on back-to-back days next weekend. Both Saturday's and Sunday's game will tip-off at 3:30 p.m. inside the Storm Dome.

MP629, Reviewed June 2009
Mail order sales is a major segment of the retail market. Many people like to shop by mail because they save travel time and shop at their convenience. In addition, it is easy to compare merchandise, and a greater array of merchandise may be available. Taking advantage of mail order sales may increase the potential market, but it also adds a new responsibility: packing goods to withstand the bumps, drops and jars of shipping.
The way your merchandise arrives tells your customer how much you care about quality and may determine whether or not the customer orders from your business again. That's why it is so important to package and ship your merchandise correctly.
Shipping is big business. To be successful, shippers have to be efficient and prompt. Therefore, packages are moved by conveyer belts, stacked into trucks, and transported over roads that are in good and poor condition. Contents of packages are subject to shock (dropping or bumping), to compression (stacked on top and under others) and to vibration (road conditions). Proper cushioning materials, strong boxes and appropriate closure materials help protect your goods during shipment.
How fragile is the item to be shipped? Not only glass and ceramic items need to be packed carefully; consider also that wood can crack, metal can bend or dent, fabric can wrinkle, and corners on objects can be damaged.
Placing an item in a tight fitting box does not provide sufficient room for cushioning materials. Instead, carefully protect items with cushioning materials, then place in a corrugated box of adequate size that has sufficient cushioning (3 inches on all four sides). If the item is fragile, place the box inside a second box to provide additional protection.
The United Parcel Service (UPS)* is a common carrier used throughout the United States and the world. They have established guidelines for packaging that have contributed to their established reputation as a safe, reliable service. Regardless of the carrier used, following these guidelines will help to ensure the successful shipping and delivery of your goods.
New corrugated cartons can be purchased from suppliers of paperboard boxes. They are also available from most moving companies or rental outlets. Boxes may also be purchased from companies whose business is mailing for the public.
Several kinds of cushioning material are available.
Pack several inches of cushioning materials in the bottom of the carton. Then, wrap items separately and place them in the center of the carton. The further you keep fragile articles away from the corners and sides, the less chance there is of damage.
Stuff cushioning material firmly around, over and between the items. Shake the box to be sure that nothing rattles and to settle the packing material. Add more cushioning material, if necessary.
To close a carton securely, use one of the strong tapes below, two inches or more in width.
The address must include the ZIP Code of the receiver with the complete street address. When addressing to a P.O. Box or Rural Route destination, include the recipient's telephone number on the label. Include the apartment number for all multi-unit dwelling addresses.
If there is any possibility that the label might come off or that the writing might smear, cover it completely with a wide band of pressure sensitive, transparent tape.
Always include your complete return address with your ZIP Code and full street address. For added protection, place a duplicate label inside the package.
The U.S. Postal Service recommends that addresses be typed in all capital letters with no punctuation.
Some items require special consideration when being packaged for shipping. Protect pointed areas with tape; enclose paper in corrugated paper tubes; double-box fragile items. For help with unusual items, contact the shipping office in your area or make use of specialty mailing/packaging services. Their employees are experts in safe mailing procedures.
Individual carriers offer other services for the protection of your packages. Through the U.S. Postal Service you can buy insurance, up to a maximum of $600, for packages mailed first class. Insurance is not available on packages mailed parcel post. UPS automatically insures all packages for up to $100 for no additional charge. Additional insurance is available at a nominal charge. Some carriers also offer COD (Cash on Delivery) service. This means that the recipient must pay for the goods and shipping when the package is delivered. Some form of delivery response information is available for a small fee from most carriers. This lets the sender know that the package was received. UPS offers AOD (Acknowledgment of Delivery); the U.S. Postal Service offers a return receipt for a fee on packages insured for at least $51.
A variety of rapid delivery services is available from many carriers for additional charge. It is possible to guarantee that your package will be delivered the same day, the next day, or within two days.
No one carrier is always best. The most economical delivery for a given package will depend on the size, weight, destination and urgency of the package. You may wish to check with several carriers before deciding which to use. To cover the costs of rapid delivery, you could require that customers pay an additional fee for same-day or overnight delivery.
Remember, proper packaging is a vital step in mail order package delivery. Your business will be judged by the package when it arrives. If the contents are broken or torn, or if the package does not get there in a reasonable amount of time, your customers will consider it a reflection of your company, and they may decide not to do business with you in the future.
Many shipping companies have size and weight limitations. These may change, so check with them if a package seems questionable.
If the weight is less than 25 pounds and the length plus girth exceeds 84 inches, the weight will be counted as 25 pounds. For special regulations on packages shipped within Texas, contact UPS.

With the change in seasons, fall is here, and football is not the only thing in the air.
Each autumn, ragweed blooms to fill the air with pollen that wrecks havoc on allergy sufferers. In addition to weed pollen, the recent wet weather has caused increasing mold counts.
The pollen and mold will prime the immune system, creating the misery known as "hay fever" that increases in intensity as the season drags on. If nothing is done, the runny, drippy nose and the itchy watery eyes can drag you down. Mold and pollen also trigger asthma attacks that peak in the fall.
A visit to a board-certified allergist can tell you exactly what is triggering your symptoms. And fortunately, there are many ways to relieve the suffering once you know what is causing it.
AVOIDANCE: No one wants to live life in a bubble, but there are a few simple steps to limit your exposure. Keeping the windows closed in your house and car and washing hair (and pets) after spending time outside will help keep the pollen out of your house. Since pollen is released in the morning, exercising later at night will trigger fewer problems.
OVER THE COUNTER MEDICINES: Non-sedating antihistamines are probably the best options here. Benadryl is too sedating for regular use, and can make it difficult to concentrate at work and school. Salt-water irrigation using a Neti-Pot or similar device is also helpful in rinsing pollen out. Unfortunately, over the counter medications won't be sufficient for many sufferers.
PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES: The safest, most potent medicines will require a trip to your doctor. Nasal steroids and nasal antihistamines are very effective against congestion, drainage and itching. They are not habit-forming like some over the counter nose sprays, and can work just as fast.
ALLERGY IMMUNOTHERAPY: Allergy shots have been shown to be the most effective longterm treatment of allergies, with up to 85 percent of patients responding. This treatment involves injecting small amounts of allergen (like pollen) in gradually increasing doses to retrain your immune system. Allergy shots can potentially cure allergies and can even prevent asthma from developing. Even more importantly, allergy shots can save you money.
According to a recent study, patients receiving allergy shots spent about 30 percent less on care in the first 18 months than similar patients who did not receive shots.
The board-certified physicians and staff at Chattanooga Allergy Clinic are especially equipped to determine what your allergic triggers are and to design a personalized treatment plan that best fi ts your busy schedule. The practice offers a variety of "rush" protocols designed to quickly achieve results with allergy shots.
Chattanooga Allergy Clinic also offers extended office hours at five convenient locations and is now accepting new patients.
For appointment inquiries at any of the locations, callthe main line at 423-899-0431 or visit chattanoogaallergyclinic.com.

Happily married to a disabled Vietnam Veteran.
This was a very economical solution to the bathing situation for my husband.
Service & Delivery
The service of this system was quick, and the installers were very helpful and informative about what we could expect from the system. They were finished in less than three hours and we're very satisfied with the results.
I was very pleased that the VA paid the full price for the purchase and installation of this system. My husband can now take a shower with very little help from me, and that's a great benefit.

|A great low-cost alternative to a shower remodel
Dec 1, 2011 9:48 AM
|Staff Member from Raleigh NC would recommend this to a friend.
A Little About Myself
This conversion kit costs thousands of dollars less than a full roll in shower remodeling job. Installation takes very little time, and the shower can be used within a day after the work is done.
The conversion is more or less permanent, so if you ever want to restore your shower to its original condition, you'll have to do a pretty extensive remodeling job. For most users, though, this won't ever matter since the inside lip is angled to prevent leaks and the shower remains completely functional.
A very affordable alternative to a bathroom remodel. We've seen this product in action in our warehouse, and I'd recommend it to anyone who needs a quick low-cost mobility solution for a disabled bather.

Understanding the cost of living in a region is perhaps the first step that potential new residents take. To aid in this decision (and highlight the region's attractiveness) the Center for Business and Economic Research collects cost of living data for east central Indiana.
Calculate the difference in cost of living using ACCRA's Cost of Living Index (includes Muncie, Bloomington, etc).
Calculate the difference in cost of living using the Nerd Wallet calculator (limited cities, does not include Muncie). This calculator does not use CBER-collected data, but may be a little more user-friendly.

The Nobel Peace Prize this year has been jointly awarded to the American politician Al Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Both were praised by the Nobel Prize Committee for their efforts "to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change". The German Aerospace Centre (DLR) contributed to the work of the IPCC in the form of scientific results.
The Chairman of the Board of DLR, Professor Johann-Dietrich Wörner, is pleased about the high-profile award, in particular for Rajendra Pachauri - the Indian head of the IPCC. "This award highlights the great importance of the current IPCC report on climate change, including the statements on air traffic in which are to a large degree based on the research outcomes of DLR." In this respect Prof. Wörner also congratulated Professor Ulrich Schumann, the head of DLR's Institute for Atmospheric Physics, under whose leadership the DLR climate studies were created.
In 2007 scientists from the Institute for Atmospheric Physics contributed to reports made by the IPCC as authors, and in addition were the main authors of earlier IPCC reports in 2001 and 1999. In particular, DLR made a significant contribution to research on the influence of air traffic on the climate and already presented and evaluated these results in detail in 1999 in the IPCC report "Aviation and the Global Atmosphere". DLR is the international leader in this field.
In addition, scientists from the institute played a leading role in the creation of the progress report on the stratospheric destruction of the ozone layer, which appeared under the direction of the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) in 2007. A major basis for many of these studies was satellite data that is received and processed by DLR's German Remote Sensing Data Centre (DFD) and evaluation methods developed by the Remote Sensing Technology Institute. Many of the research findings are based on measurements made by DLR's research plane Falcon. The DLR scientists congratulate the more than 1000 colleagues worldwide who contributed to the IPCC reports.

By Ross Colvin and Satarupa Bhattacharjya
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - The Indian government, reduced to a minority for the first time since coming to power in 2004, is scrambling for support ahead of a parliament session that will severely test its economic reform agenda, and its chances of success look bleak.
For the moment, there is no threat of the government falling. But an obstructive opposition and unreliable allies could mean there is little progress on reforms like opening up insurance and pension businesses when parliament's month-long winter session gets under way on Thursday.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has engaged in unusual dinner diplomacy with allies at his New Delhi home to build consensus on the next round of economic reforms, which need parliamentary approval.
Criticised in the past for cold-shouldering allies and opponents, Singh also plans to dine this week with leaders of the main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), whose obstructionist tactics washed out the last session. But analysts doubt he will manage to forge a consensus on the reforms.
"If things go awry, and legislation gets deadlocked it would be negative for markets and will mean those that were pessimistic on Indian reforms taking shape will be vindicated," said Suresh Kumar Ramanathan, head of regional rates and forex strategy at CIMB in Kuala Lumpur.
Analysts warn of a "nightmare scenario" in which the government loses a test vote in parliament on its flagship reform - opening up the retail sector to foreign supermarkets, a decision that has drawn fire from both opponents and allies who say it will destroy the livelihoods of mom and pop store owners.
The reform does not require parliamentary approval. But left- and-right-wing opposition parties, with an eye to upcoming state and national elections, want to use the session to hold the government to account on the policy, which they say does not have popular support.
They are pushing hard for a symbolic vote against the measure. If the government lost the vote, it would be an embarrassing setback for a policy on which it has staked so much political capital. It could also sap its political will to pursue more difficult reforms to cut high spending and reduce a ballooning budget deficit.
Most of the initiatives Singh has announced to date have required only an executive order, so this session of parliament poses the biggest test yet of his reform drive. If he fails to get key allies and the BJP on board, his reformist legislative agenda could stall.
Among the reform bills due to be introduced are measures to allow up to 49 percent foreign investment in local insurance companies and domestic pension funds. Currently, the cap for insurers is at 26 percent and foreign investors are barred from buying into pensions.
Uncertainty surrounding the passage of these bills has contributed to a 3.8 percent fall in the benchmark BSE stock market index since the start of October.
The rupee, meanwhile, has shed all of its gains since the government launched its new economic reform drive in September. Analysts attribute the fall to a host of factors, including the global downturn, a ballooning deficit and fears that the promised reforms may not be fully implemented.
It was not clear on Wednesday whether the government would relent and allow the vote on retail reform to go ahead or if it would concede only to a motion allowing discussion of the move but not a vote, a less risky proposition.
Singh's biggest coalition ally, the Trinamool Congress party, has withdrawn its support over the reform, leaving him in charge of a minority administration at a time when he is trying to revive growth in Asia's third-largest economy.
Trinamool is pushing for a vote of no-confidence in the government during the winter session, which - if lost - could bring the government down and trigger a national election, well before it is due in 2014. For now, few opposition parties have the stomach for an early election, preferring instead to score political points by harrying a weakened government.
But the highly fluid situation means nothing is certain.
"We expect a rocky ride," Citi Research said in an analyst note that questioned whether the government would be able to pass legislation given its minority status, despite its insistence that it has done the maths and has the votes.
The economic bills can be passed in parliament's lower house with the support of two big regional parties - the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) - which are not part of the ruling coalition but often give it support in parliament. However, the SP has previously opposed the pension and insurance bills while the BSP is keeping its cards close to its chest.
The government is in a minority in the upper house, so support from the opposition BJP is crucial there. But analysts say its unlikely the BJP will be willing to help its rival, which mean the bills could be tripped up at this last hurdle.

Shares of JIANKUN INTERNATIONAL BERHAD (8923.KL) have seen the needle move 1.39% or 0.005 in the most recent session. The BM listed company saw a recent bid of $0.365 on 118500 volume.
Investing in the stock market offers the potential for big returns. On the flip side, investors can also experience major losses when trading equities. Investors are typically trying their best to maximize returns while limiting losses. Figuring out the best way to do this is no easy proposition. There may be periods where everything seems to be working out, and the returns are rolling in. There may be other times when nothing seems to be going right, and the losses start to pile up. Nobody can predict with pinpoint certainty which way the market will shift in the future. Preparing the portfolio for multiple scenarios can help the investor stick it out when the waters get choppy. Having a properly diversified stock portfolio may help investors ride out the turbulence when it inevitably takes control of the market.
Taking a deeper look into the technical levels of JIANKUN INTERNATIONAL BERHAD (8923.KL), we can see that the Williams Percent Range or 14 day Williams %R currently sits at -35.71. The Williams %R oscillates in a range from 0 to -100. A reading between 0 and -20 would point to an overbought situation. A reading from -80 to -100 would signal an oversold situation. The Williams %R was developed by Larry Williams. This is a momentum indicator that is the inverse of the Fast Stochastic Oscillator.
JIANKUN INTERNATIONAL BERHAD (8923.KL) currently has a 14-day Commodity Channel Index (CCI) of 44.25. Active investors may choose to use this technical indicator as a stock evaluation tool. Used as a coincident indicator, the CCI reading above +100 would reflect strong price action which may signal an uptrend. On the flip side, a reading below -100 may signal a downtrend reflecting weak price action. Using the CCI as a leading indicator, technical analysts may use a +100 reading as an overbought signal and a -100 reading as an oversold indicator, suggesting a trend reversal.
The RSI, or Relative Strength Index, is a widely used technical momentum indicator that compares price movement over time. The RSI was created by J. Welles Wilder who was striving to measure whether or not a stock was overbought or oversold. The RSI may be useful for spotting abnormal price activity and volatility. The RSI oscillates on a scale from 0 to 100. The normal reading of a stock will fall in the range of 30 to 70. A reading over 70 would indicate that the stock is overbought, and possibly overvalued. A reading under 30 may indicate that the stock is oversold, and possibly undervalued. After a recent check, JIANKUN INTERNATIONAL BERHAD's 14-day RSI is currently at 59.33, the 7-day stands at 59.03, and the 3-day is sitting at 68.80.
Currently, the 14-day ADX for JIANKUN INTERNATIONAL BERHAD (8923.KL) is sitting at 41.43. Generally speaking, an ADX value from 0-25 would indicate an absent or weak trend. A value of 25-50 would support a strong trend. A value of 50-75 would identify a very strong trend, and a value of 75-100 would lead to an extremely strong trend. ADX is used to gauge trend strength but not trend direction. Traders often add the Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI) to identify the direction of a trend.
For further review, we can take a look at another popular technical indicator. In terms of moving averages, the 200-day is currently at 0.29, the 50-day is 0.32, and the 7-day is resting at 0.36. Moving averages are a popular trading tool among investors. Moving averages can be used to help filter out the day to day noise created by other factors. MA's may be used to identify uptrends or downtrends, and they can be a prominent indicator for detecting a shift in momentum for a particular stock. Many traders will use moving averages for different periods of time in conjunction with other indicators to help gauge future stock price action.

We purchased our refrigerator on 1/8/07. It's been less than 3 years and now it doesn't cool. I don't care that I didn't purchase the extended warranty, I shouldn't have ANY problems with a refrigerator that's only 3 years old. Frigidaire will not help me without the warranty and I think their refusal to stand behind their product speaks volumes. I will never buy Frigidaire again! What a waste of $800 plus the cost of repairs. Lucky for me I was able to get a local appliance repair company agree to come out tomorrow, but $65 just to look at it... ouch!
UPDATE: I had an appliance service technician out to my home on 12/29 and after looking over the refrigerator he determined there was a freon leak and that it was running out of freon. The refrigerator side is warm now too. He also stated that he thought Frigidaire covered sealed components for up to 5 years. I asked him if there was anything that I had done to have caused this and he stated that it was nothing I could have done to cause the issue and that it was from the manufacturing being of poor quality.
I then contacted Frigidaire and they stated the sealed components were not covered that they only cover sealed components for the 5 year period for models built in 2005 or prior. I then asked to speak to a supervisor and she stated that I would have to wait for them to call me back and that I would get a call back the next day... I'm not holding my breath.
At this point we've decided to cut our losses and have purchased a Whirlpool refrigerator. We are shopping around for extended warranties, the store give us 30 days to make a decision. Overall I'm very disappointed with Frigidaire and their unwillingness to stand behind their product. I paid $800 for a refrigerator that only lasted 3 years due to the poor workmanship of Frigidaire.
GEORGIA -- Ran it at Max for first 2 weeks, thinking it is new and the weather is hot. Fridge part was barely cold so got a thermometer which registered in danger zone. Freezer was fine then. Called for service and told had to wait 2 days (and take a day off from work). Upon returning home on the day I called, found refrig temp at 60 and freezer defrosted. Over $300 worth of food gone spoiled. Called customer service and as a result received a $25 check (an insult) for food loss (not to mention 2 days lost pay which I knew there was not a prayer of getting). I had to stay home for service man to come and tell me the unit did not work because the sealing was corrupt.
Called AMEX because seller said I had to see if it could be repaired. AMEX said they would not pay the bill because unit was 3 wks old and I was dissatisfied. Gave me leverage with seller and I got another manufacturer (GE-fingers crossed for good luck). I tried to review it on the Frigidaire site but it will not accept a derogatory write-up. I will fight-perhaps in small claims court (?) because they sent a $25 check and I will not cash in I feel they have accepted responsibility. I have pix of full fridge and freezer of ruined food.
I have had this fridge for 13 months. During that time, I have had to call out a technician 4 times. The first time, the defroster wasn't plugged in when it was manufactured, so I ended up losing the entire contents of my fridge and freezer when it stopped chilling. The other problems have been the icemaker, the ice dispenser, water dispenser, noise in the fan, etc. I just had a repair man out several weeks ago, and now have another problem. Now the thing is noisier than a plane taking off! Loud noises are emanating from the freezer, deafening loud at times. I wonder if the whole thing is about to die! It wakes me up at night with its noise. Of course, my warranty has now expired.
I am so unhappy buying a Frigidaire. Nothing but problems. How many problems can a fridge have? I didn't know Frigidaire had such a bad product. I thought that they had been making fridges for years... Boy am I ever sorry I bought this one. My last Kenmore had for 3 years until I sold my house, not a single problem. I will not buy a Frigidaire product again or recommend that anyone else does. What a waste of time and money.
Well, we are shopping for a replacement for our $1200 Frigidaire FRS6LR5EM6 side by side. We have the original purchase price in it, 3 calls to the service guy and the expense to fix it for the 3rd time for not cooling. We have 3 batches of bad meat/food to pay for. We have water damage to our wood floors. It seems to break and thaw out either at night or while I am at work. Water sits on the floor for hours till we figure out that it is OOS (out of service) again. If you bought a Frigidaire then you need the extended warranty. We bought a matching dishwasher and microwave so our appliances matched for the first 2 years.
We are waiting for the repairman to once again come by and fix the refrig. I am looking for a GE model that will match because we are selling this one to someone else, once it gets fixed. My luck it will run for years trouble free after this but I am not willing to make leap of faith. The repair guy says that those Frigidaires are made in Mexico and quality is not an issue with them. I believe it!
Broke down within 2 months lost full refrigerator few days before Christmas. They could have overnighted parts but refused. My certified tech tells me this will keep happening [Breaking down] so I'm into a $2000 new fridge that's a piece of junk. Also this unit is so noisy you wouldn't believe, I complained they sent a page long list of normal operating sounds. There's a sign!
My fridge is 7 years old, spent $1300 on it and the ice maker is going. Company basically told me I should have bought an extended warranty. Compressor went out at 2 1/2 years, and it was barely covered under warranty. I will never buy another one from them.
OHIO -- You would think when you spend $1000 on an appliance that it would last at least 5 years, maybe more. DO NOT BUY THIS APPLIANCE!!! This side-by-side was manufactured on 9/04, we have had it since 3/05, and just after warranty expired, it quit cooling. After speaking to a repair rep for Lowe's we found out this is quite common of this brand to go bad just over a year old. Compressor bad, it is junk... That is hard to swallow, to think I must again purchase all new food, and a new fridge. It is horrible to think that FRIGIDAIRE would make such appliances that would be no good after a year. I do know I will do more research on this website before I spend my next $1000!!!
KENNEWICK, WASHINGTON -- It makes me sad to see another American brand name headed to the trash heap, but I'm sure corporate greed and outsourcing to blame again... I bought a 2003 side by side Frigidaire refrigerator/freezer. Now I am having intermittent failure of the freezer unit and can't get it repaired. Why? Service people won't respond BECAUSE IT IS INTERMITTENT. So now I am saddled with an American piece of junk I can't even get fixed. Because of this experience, I will now shun all familiar American brand appliances and buy quality European brands such as LG or Braun where the word 'quality' remains a significant word.

A woman who worked as a driver in a human smuggling ring that employed a corrupt U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer was sentenced to five years of probation by a federal judge Monday.
Vanessa Moya, 30, pleaded guilty in December to conspiracy, bribery and smuggling unauthorized immigrants into the U.S. for financial gain. She worked as driver for a group of smugglers headed by two men, border Officer Hector Rodriguez and Gerardo Rodriguez, a longtime friend. The two are not related.
Both were indicted in July, along with Moya, and charged with smuggling people through the San Ysidro Port of Entry. The key to the scheme was Hector Rodriguez, who had worked for Customs and Border Protection for four years.
He would tell the others in advance what his work schedule was, in particular which lane he was assigned to work at the port of entry on a specific day. Prosecutors with the U.S. Attorney's Office in San Diego said Hector Rodriguez would allow vehicles full of illegal immigrants, driven by Moya and Gerardo Rodriguez, through his inspection lane.
Hector Rodriguez would then enter false data about both the driver and the vehicle into computers at the inspection lane, then allow them to enter the country. Each immigrant paid $10,000 to $15,000 to be smuggled in, court records say.
The scheme went on for about two years, during which time hundreds of unauthorized immigrants were smuggled in. Investigators documented at least 37 trips where Hector Rodriguez allowed cars to pass through his inspection lane without being properly checked or documented in agency computers. In more than half those instances, the unchecked car was driven by Gerardo Rodriguez.
Hector Rodriguez received cash, jewelry and a luxury car as proceeds from the bribes. He and Gerardo Rodriguez also have pleaded guilty and are scheduled to be sentenced July 1.
Moya was recruited into the ring by her aunt, Maria Guerrero, her lawyer said in court papers filed for her sentencing. She has no criminal record and her only role was to drive the vehicles across the border. Guerrero has also pleaded guilty and is set to be sentenced May 20.

| WMU News
KALAMAZOO—Western Michigan University is one of just four Michigan public universities included in the U.S. News & World Report's annual list of top-tier national universities.
The publication's 2012 ranking of more than 1,500 four-year colleges and universities was unveiled today at usnews.com and will be available Sept. 18 in a print guidebook on newsstands. WMU is among the 281 institutions—173 public, 101 private and seven for-profit—the magazine singles out as having national standing and being among the nation's best. WMU's numerical rank this year is 189 among the total group.
This is the 22nd year WMU has appeared in the magazine's top grouping of "best national universities." The top 75 percent of the nation's schools recognized by U.S. News are given a numeric ranking. The schools in the bottom 25 percent of the group are listed alphabetically and without ranking as the second tier.
Release of the U.S. News listing comes just weeks after WMU learned it was included on the Washington Monthly's list of the country's top 100 national universities. That list ranks schools that are good for students and the nation. Earlier this summer, the University also was named for the eighth time to Princeton Review's "Best Midwestern Colleges" list.
Four Michigan public universities are among the schools numerically ranked in the U.S. News' top tier of public and private institutions that is led by Harvard, Princeton and Yale in the top three slots.
- University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
- Michigan State University
- Michigan Technological University
- Western Michigan University
Another three Michigan schools appear in the unranked lower tier of "best national universities." They are Central Michigan, Oakland and Wayne State universities. Several other state schools are on the magazine's various lists of top liberal arts schools and regional top master's-level universities and baccalaureate colleges.
WMU was first named to the overall "Best National Universities" list in 1991 and moved up to the third of four tiers on the 1999 list. The publication eliminated the four-tier system last year when it moved to the two groups of ranked and unranked schools. The widely read U.S. News list is based on 16 criteria, including academic reputation, retention and graduation rates, student/faculty ratios, class size, faculty resources, student test scores and alumni giving.
About WMU
WMU has an enrollment of some 25,000 students and is classified by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a university with high research activity. The University offers more than 240 degree programs, including 30 at the doctoral level and has regional locations at seven sites around Michigan. A learner-centered, discovery-driven and globally engaged university, WMU attracts students from every state in the union and 90 other nations, and its more than 900 faculty members have been trained at some of the world's finest institutions.

Leave her the hell alone. She might be the happy half of Touma but she really doesn't care nor remember. I don't even trust that Amata will save her cause Mikono-saaaaaaaaaan.

I don't think they would actually let that go through. They'll hopefully have Amata help Zessica kick out Mykage though everyone should be prepared for a.. You know in case they decide that they do want Mykagee to force Zessica and Amagura to do it inside the Solar Aquarion. Would be sick if they said say that Zessica fans should be happy if that does happen which I'm sure Zessica fans will confuse them and they will be furious.

Maybe that's there way of trying to appease Zessica fans by forcing "that" on her and Amata even though neither want things like that. Considering Amata is pretty dumb I don't think he'll be able to snap Zessica out or say "no" when Mykage has her seduce him inside the Solar Aquarion.
At least he wont try that yet since Kagura isn't perfect thus there would be no point in him touching Zessica unless he's fused back into Amata. Than Mykage can through the most crazy party inside the Solar Aquarion ever. Mikono x Zessica x Amagura x Mykage x Solar Aquarion fun time? Evol, huh?
Horrifying, no?

This episode is a total disappointment.
I dont care if a sequel of certain anime is gay. But for it kill the prequel by making the MC from prequel as a dog(well reincarnation of a dog) is too much.
Apollo and Silivia pairing was awesomeness first because they were lovers 12000 years before the first Aquarion series. But Aquarion Evol trashed it by making him into a dog who had a crush on her.
Doesnt this mean we dont need AmataXMikono end, since they arent actually destined to be with? Man Amata should be paired with Jessica to end this weird destiny crap the produce pulled of this episode.

Its like... no one watched Genesis, or if they did, don't remember any of it.
Dog is a misnomer anyway, a Shadow Angel can be whatever the hell they want to be or appear as, take a look at Otoha or Elder Johannes (who didn't even have a lower body). Mykage just went from fabulous to female, and Pollon went, after death, from Shadow Angel to human.
My lingering question is what happened to Apollonius? Perhaps, in powering Aquarion, he slowly lost himself to it and eventually all that he could do is manifest as the projection of Fudo. It explains why Fudo never did anything in either series, he could not have as he was just an illusion. He had a happy life with Celianne, had kids, and he "died" but in a way that barred his reincarnation. Celianne went on as did Pollon, long after Apollonius was gone, and that became the actual legend.

So in other words Evol the sequel with horrible characters, lack luster writing, horrible pacing, and a head writer who just can't seem to keep focused on her actual main characters, ruined its much better prequel, with better characters, better writing, better pacing and a head writer who knew who is main characters were, with one single stupid twist that I imagine the writers will kick themselves for after the series is over, and the drugs have worn off.
At this point in time it isn't even trolling anymore, its just stupidity.

I would not really bothered at all if Apollo was a dog revelation actually happened in Genesis. I would have actually liked it and supported it.
But now it just feels like a added on retcon to justify Amata and Mikono's fate. Mikono won't choose the beast half but will choose the wings half of Pollon or she can just merge them both and get with them or they die together.
It's just so weird.
So there is really no new legend that is being created. No battle against fate that is being fought. They pretty much made Gen to be a major ass for what he did to Touma. Like come one, why? First of all Touma was butthurt and now Mykage's his dark half is even worse. What good thing did Gen expect will happen from what ever trolling he did?

Mykage being Toma's dark side makes some sense. Toma was a fine villain, but in my opinion he never managed the type of concentrated ubertroll villainy that Mykage has perfected, despite similarities between the characters. It will be interesting if Zessica is his other side, too. I'm disappointed she isn't Apollo herself, but oh well.
I really don't think that Zessica should be killed...It would just be finishing off the conga line of bad things with a particularly big bad thing, that being her death, and wouldn't give her a chance to be happy at all. IMO she is not at the very rare point where the only kind thing to do with a character is to kill 'em. Her woes are pretty much "the guy I truly love doesn't love me" plus the much more worrying "a creepy bastard literally wants my body for an as-yet unknown purpose". She's still got a bright future ahead of her, as long as Mykage gets evicted. And, uh, the world gets saved.
I like the idea that Fudo might be Apollonius, unable to manifest except as an illusion. It definitely beats the idea that he could have done something. In any case, even if Fudo is just Fudo, it looks to me right now as if what Fudo wants is to heal the planets or bring back the tree of life or an equivalent, which might be the same thing Mykage is after, at least in part. Or maybe he really is just looking to guide the others.

Maybe its because I'm not looking for the silver lining in the clouds, is the reason why I remain pessimistic over something that is pretty much a retcon coming from a series that has proven to be nothing but lack luster at best, in the face of its predecessor or any other series during this year might I add.
It frankly feels contrived coming from the sequel, if this was a revelation from Aquarion it wouldn't be as bad, but instead its coming from the lack luster sequel created years after the first series. Especially when its basically bending down and taking a dump all over the message and integrity of the first series while telling viewers that they can forget all about it and its events because none of it matters anymore. All so that a badly written love triangle can be solved.

This episode amused me. But hey I hate reincarnation romance so I can kickback and laugh.
1) Supposedly piloted the Aquarion, everyone assumed he was the third pilot but what if that was Scorpius all along, huh?
2) Lived all these 24.000 years.
3) That isn't his real form. Mykage asked him where did he hide his real form (when he was casually looking for the Aquarion too, coincidence? Nah).
I could continue.

SAN FRANCISCO — TRX Suspension Training systems by Fitness Anywhere Inc., San Francisco, are being used by many branches of the U.S. military to keep troops in shape while they are deployed in the field. This marks a return to the company's roots, since the systems were originally developed by former U.S. Navy SEAL and company founder Randy Hetrick, in conjunction with his Navy SEAL teammates, as they improvised ways to stay fit on covert missions.
The suspension training tool has been tested by the U.S. military and is used to maintain operation readiness in the field, says Alex Roodhouse, Fitness Anywhere military program manager and former Navy officer.
"I first used the TRX several years ago in Ramadi, Iraq," Roodhouse says. "We anchored it on our tactical vehicles and the hesco barriers outside our tent, and it made an immediate impact on my team."
Now he says TRX systems are used by the Navy Special Warfare and Expeditionary communities, numerous Army Brigades and throughout the Marine Corps.
The TRX Force Kit, which is being used by Marines in combat throughout Afghanistan and Iraq, includes a bodyweight training kit with a 12-week intensive training program. In addition, nearly every gym on U.S. Marine Corps bases uses TRX Suspension Training, Roodhouse says, and the Marine Forces Reserve has embraced it as a means of staying in shape during training and mobilization.
In the Army, TRX Suspension Trainers are in use at numerous bases, and several units from those installations have deployed with TRX Force Kits. TRX Suspension Training also is taught at all Navy Command Fitness Leader Courses, and the Navy's Special Boat Teams are considering giving TRX Force Kits to all deploying Special Warfare Combatant Craft Crewmen.
Fitness Anywhere started a Wounded Warrior Fund to provide equipment, training and encouragement to injured soldiers. Five dollars from the purchase of every TRX FORCE Training Kit sold on www.FitnessAnywhere.com goes to support this effort.

PARIS, TX -- False alarm calls in Paris have dropped after changes earlier this year to the city's burglar alarm ordinance.
Paris Police Chief, Bob Hundley, says the first 90-days of the revised ordinance has seen a decrease of 22-percent compared to the same time last year.
According to the police department officers responded to nearly 2,000 false alarm calls last year.
Hundley says fewer false alarms will help free up officers for real emergencies.
"The 30 or 45 minutes that we don't have officers on the scene, that equates to almost 90 hours of extra patrol time, preventative patrol time, or doing other things that need to be done," said Hundley.
Hundley says last year alone one business had over 130-false alarm calls. Since the revised ordinance no one alarm location has over five false alarm calls.

This Sunday is Father's Day in Australia – yes I know, we like to be different and have it on a different day to North America – but my Dad isn't big on presents. He knows I'm half-way around the world, traveling on a budget. And I know that Canada Post is slower than a snail. So, a Skype kiss will have to do.
But considering Christmas will be here in no time, what's the general consensus for sending gifts home?
I love to give presents. I enjoy seeing that first reaction when a gift is opened: be it positive, negative, surprise, bewilderment or 'I knew it'. But buying gifts puts a big dent in the travel budget, especially at the merry time of Christmas when there are so many people to buy for.
I've been away from my family for Christmases before, but I was only traveling for short periods of time. But what happens now? When I don't know when I'm going back?
I also have to take into consideration the size of my backpack, it's only 35 liters. So it's not like I can make up for it with accumulated treats and souvenirs from around the world. Sure I could post some stuff, but it's expensive and adds up, and isn't it the thought that counts?
For all of you nomads, long term-travelers and expats, What do you do? If you're away at Christmas is it 'too bad, so sad' or do you sacrifice your future travels to buy pressies?
I think I'll stick with postcards this year… I'll send one to the family home for everyone to skim through on Christmas Day. Is this just selfish of me? Or are gifts just a product of the materialistic world we live in? Or is that just a poor excuse to save time and money?

The Matthew Sweet will be playing ***Note this performance is at the World Cafe Live in Wilmington, DE
XPN's Free At Noon concert series.
Broadcast Live from the stage at World Cafe Live at the Queen
Listen to the Live Friday Free At Noon Concert on the Radio and Online at XPN.org/listen
Matthew Sweet is on tour in support of the 20th Anniversary re-issue of his classic 1991 album, Girlfriend and plays World Cafe Live at the Queen in Wilmington, on Friday night October 28, and Sellersville Theatre on Thursday, November 3. He'll play XPN Free At Noon at the Queen on Friday, October 28.
Creating catchy rock/powerpop music seems to always have been an integral part of Matthew Sweet's life. Sweet was off to an early start in his musical career, self-recording several solo pieces onto four-tracks and later recording with his high-school band Specs for a battle of the bands LP. Such mild stepping stones in Sweet's life lead him straight to the heart of the 80's Athen's music scene. After settling in Athens for college, he found himself collaborating with several groups and top artist including Community Trolls with Michael Stipe (R.E.M.), Oh-Ok and Buzz of Delight. By the mid-80's, Sweet landed himself a deal with Columbia Records and later A&M Records. While his poppy tunes and catchy riffs were praised, he never quite achieved mainstream status. It wasn't until the release of his third album "Girlfriend" (1991) that his expanding melodic sound broke through the boundaries of the pop aesthetic and paved the way to a more successful career. With a newfound momentum, Sweet embarked on assembling new bands, such as The Thorns (2002), and working on several new solo projects. Among his most recent work is his solo-album Modern Art. Full of yearning pop, infectious medolies, and witty wordplay, "Modern Art" proves to be another successful release for Matthew Sweet.
