Saxophone Quartet No. 2
Personnel: Saxophone Quartet (SATB)
Premiered 30 November 1998
Manhattan School of Music
Surge Saxophone Quartet
Recommended for high school and college quartets, or professional groups.
— Saxophone Journal Volume 30, Number 3 Jan/Feb 2006
This 1998 quartet, by New York composer Steve Cohen, is recently published. It represents a beautiful example of contemporary neo-classical writing. Perhaps the best statement that can be made about the piece is that its musicality transcends the realm of the saxophone. Audiences who may be new to the concept of classical saxophone will be very moved by this piece’s lyricism, counterpoint, melodic interest and interplay.
Each of the four parts lays well on the instrument, and the music is beautifully engraved and easy to read. None of the parts are technically difficult, with no extended range issues or nasty technical passages. A good high school or college player could handle the technical challenges. That said, it takes a considerable amount of musicianship, thought, and group rehearsal to make this piece sing, as demanded by the lyrical melodic elements of this quartet, and the way the voices mesh (sometimes with lightning precision).
The first movement has the effect of an introduction, creating a flowing, pastoral atmosphere that opens with unaccompanied tenor, soon joined by all voices in some wonderful modulations and mode changes.
The second movement is a scherzo that features some interlocking acrobatics and great compositional effects that show off the saxophone’s agility. The composer’s notes mention the created illusion of circular breathing among the group, and a more percussive nature.
The third movement, an adagio, has the piece’s most lyrical moments, interspersed with jazz-like clusters in the ensemble.
The allegro giocoso finale is the most neoclassical of the four movements, and sets a playful mood with an ascending scale motive that is soon broken up and quickly passed around in fugue-like environments. This movement ties up the entire work by bringing in elements of the other three movements, cast as the half tempo pastoral melodic basis of bubbling melodic comments from solo parts.
This SATB quartet is a gem, and its approach is shared by only a handful of other new compositions. It would be a beautiful addition to any professional quartet’s repertoire, and will teach any student group a great deal about the chamber music tradition.
— David Demsey

Margherita (Assam), Feb 18 (IANS) Organic tea coins made by
a tribal community in Assam are becoming popular in Europe
and Southeast Asian countries with people preferring them
increasingly to conventional tea bags.
"The demand for the organic tea coin is increasing by
the day after we were able to penetrate markets in the US,
Britain, Canada, China, Thailand, and now in Hong Kong,"
Rajesh Singpho, owner of Singpho Agro Products that manufactures
the organic tea coins, told IANS.
Packed in silver foils, the tea coins come in a neat pack
of two grams, five grams and 10 grams and are ready to use
- dip the coin into a pot of hot water and it is ready to
"The ratio is one is to four - you can get four cups
of strong tea by dipping a coin weighing two grams,"
"People in Europe and other Southeast Asian nations are
increasingly health conscious and would rather prefer organic
Indian tea to the conventional tea."
Spread over an area of about nine hectares of land in Margherita,
540 km east of Assam's main city Guwahati, Singpho and his
100-odd workforce toil hard to produce about 90,000 kg of
organic tea annually.
"The entire process of manufacturing the tea is done
in a traditional manner without the use of any machines or
gadgets. It is all done manually," Singpho said.
The Singpho tribe in Assam and the adjoining state of Arunachal
Pradesh, now numbering about 25,000, is believed to have first
discovered tea bushes.
In the late 1830s, long before the commercial production of
tea started in India, the tea plant was growing wild in the
jungles of Assam.
Singpho tribes people ate the leaves as a vegetable with garlic,
besides drinking the brew after dipping the leaves in boiled
"We are fetching a price of Rs.1,000 (over $20) per kg
of the tea we make. We sell it loose and also in the form
of coins," Singpho said.
The tea is sold under the brand name Phalap (meaning tea in
the Singpho language). The loose tea is packed in bamboo containers
so that the traditional properties are maintained and it is
free from any preservatives or chemicals.
"We are getting orders for 2,000 kg of tea coins from
Hong Kong. We are now working overtime to meet the demand,"
the young tea planter said.
India is the world's second largest tea producer after China
and produced 962 million kg in 2008 compared to 945 million
kg the previous year. Assam accounted for 55 percent of the
total output, most of it conventional tea.
A kilogram of premium quality Assam tea fetched Rs.90 in the
latest weekly auctions.

What did we do before Social Media came along in all it’s glory? Pen, paper, a stamp, a landline and heaven’s to betsy, we’d meet people face to face! Now don’t get me wrong…
Without Social Media it would be really difficult for me to keep in touch with our family. It’s a lifeline. But it can also be a millstone. Never mind the time wasted following links and pictures of cuddly cats and delicious dogs (I’m guilty of posting a fair few of those ) 🙂
As authors we’re told we need a ‘platform’ from which to be seen. I would rather be a back room girl, hidden from view and quietly (yes, I said quietly) getting on with it. But if you want people to know about your writing – and if not why bother? – then you need to get yourself around a little. In the nicest possible sense. There are so many ‘platforms’ you can strut your stuff on, and by no means do you have to do them all. Try one and see if it works. There is no right way just the right place for you. And it isn’t just about marketing, you can build connections, get ideas and inspiration and access research and information. Here are the two that I use, for different purposes
I’ve recently centered my efforts on Instagram. It’s owned by Facebook (Simon calls it something else by swapping the F and b around) where I also have an author profile. For me, Instagram is a little more friendly and interactive. It’s very visual which is definitely my preference and I love creating content for it. Over the past few weeks I’ve increased my ‘followers’ to three figures – no longer Billy No Mates but more importantly being in touch with other writers and seeing what they get up to. It’s also more intimate than a blog. More instant and accessible. That’s why I link posts to my Instagram account.
The writing world is awash with How To’s and I’m not going to join the merry band, but here is a post that’s targeted at authors about getting things going on Instagram which I found useful
I use been using Pinterest to provide inspiration for my writing rather than for marketing purposes and I have quite a lot of engagement and viewers on a monthly basis. Pinterest is another visual platform where you create Pins – i.e. images that you can categorise into Boards. I collect lots of stuff for my works in progress which I keep as a private board until publication. All my other boards are open to anyone who wants to view them. I use them to collect images for my social media posts, for e.g. inspirational quotes but mainly for developing my writing in whatever way that may be… characters, setting, dialogue, and prompts to get me going.
I’ve come to the conclusion that social media doesn’t have to be a millstone around my neck, it’s more about what works for me, my process, my way of doing things. And Instagram and Pinterest seem to hit the spot. If you care to take a look and follow me, give me a shout and I’ll return the favour. Click on the images to follow links to my profiles 🙂
Essentially, I’m a chronic introvert though I love to people watch and eavesdrop. I can do this on these platforms rather than go out into the big bad real world. What I wouldn’t give for the invisible cloak from Harry Potter. Now I’ll get back to my dark room far away from the madding crowds…

A casino online is an online gambling website that provides players with a variety of gaming options. They usually offer a large selection of slots, table games, and other casino-related activities, including video poker. They also provide a secure environment where players can place wagers and make withdrawals without fear of losing their money or identity. Additionally, many online casinos have mobile versions that are compatible with most devices.
Casino online is a very competitive space, so operators must develop innovative strategies to attract and retain new customers. This often involves offering generous sign-up bonuses and other types of promotional offers. Some sites even host online slot tournaments to reward players for their loyalty. However, before you choose a casino online to play with, be sure to research its reputation and game collection.
The casino online industry has expanded considerably since its inception, and now features a wide range of different gambling options for players from all over the world. Whether you’re looking for a simple online casino or a fully blown live dealer experience, there is something for everyone. The only downside to this is that the sheer amount of choice can be overwhelming for some people.
One of the biggest challenges for any newcomer to the casino online is how to choose a site that meets their needs and expectations. The best way to do this is by reading reviews and comparing the various promotions offered by each site. It’s also a good idea to try out the games for free before committing any real money. This will help you to determine which casino is the right fit for you.
When choosing a casino online to play with, it is important to check its security measures. A reputable casino will use the latest encryption technology to protect customer information. It will also have a team of customer service representatives that can answer your questions quickly and accurately. This will ensure that your gaming experience is as enjoyable as possible.
In addition to the safety and security measures taken by casino websites, they should also be regulated by an authority that is well-known in the industry. This is a good indication that the casino is trustworthy and has a strong reputation. It will not do anything that could damage its reputation and risk losing its license to operate.
A reputable casino will have a wide selection of casino games that appeal to different tastes. For example, new players may want to try out slot machines that require little thought or skill. On the other hand, experienced players will prefer tables like blackjack and roulette that require strategy. A quality casino will also have a diverse selection of payment methods, including credit cards and cryptocurrencies.
Moreover, the website should be easy to navigate and offer helpful tips for players. In addition, it should have a chat support feature that can be used for assistance. This is especially important for new players who are unfamiliar with the casino software. The website should also have an extensive FAQ section to answer common questions.

Dogs are curious creatures, and they love to explore their surroundings. As a dog owner, you may have noticed your furry friend nibbling on plants around the house, and you may be wondering if aloe vera is safe for them to eat.
While aloe vera is known for its medicinal properties and is commonly used in skincare products, it’s important to understand that it can be toxic to dogs.
True aloe, also known as aloe vera, contains a substance called saponins that can cause gastrointestinal upset in dogs if ingested.
The symptoms of aloe vera poisoning in dogs can range from mild to severe and may include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, and a loss of appetite. It’s crucial to recognize the signs of aloe vera poisoning in dogs and seek veterinary care immediately if you suspect your dog has ingested this plant.
In this article, we’ll take a closer look at whether dogs can eat aloe vera and explore the potential risks and benefits of this plant for your furry friend.
We’ll also discuss the symptoms of aloe vera poisoning in dogs, how to prevent your dog from eating this plant, and what to do if you suspect your dog has ingested aloe vera. By the end of this article, you’ll have a better understanding of whether aloe vera is safe for your dog and how to keep them healthy and happy.
What is Aloe Vera?
Aloe vera is a succulent plant that is native to North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. It has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties and is now commonly found in many households as a natural remedy for various ailments.
The plant has thick, fleshy leaves that contain a clear gel-like substance that is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Aloe vera is known for its soothing and healing properties, and it is commonly used to treat skin conditions, such as burns, cuts, and rashes. It is also used to promote digestive health and boost the immune system.
While aloe vera is generally safe for humans, many pet owners wonder if it is safe for their furry friends. In this article, we will explore the benefits and risks of feeding aloe vera to dogs.
Can Dogs Eat Aloe Vera?
Aloe vera is a popular plant known for its medicinal properties. It is commonly used for skin care, digestive issues, and wound healing.
Benefits of Aloe Vera for Dogs
- Relieving skin irritation and itching: Aloe vera has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe skin irritation and itching in dogs.
- Improving digestion: Aloe vera can help regulate digestion and alleviate digestive issues such as constipation and diarrhea.
- Boosting the immune system: Aloe vera contains vitamins and antioxidants that can help boost the immune system and improve overall health.
Risks of Aloe Vera for Dogs
While aloe vera can have some benefits for dogs, it can also pose some risks. The latex produced by the plant can cause digestive issues and other problems in dogs. Here are some of the risks associated with aloe vera:
- Diarrhea and vomiting: Latex in aloe vera can cause diarrhea and vomiting in dogs.
- Depression and lethargy: Ingesting aloe vera can cause depression and lethargy in dogs.
- Oral irritation: Chewing on aloe vera can cause oral irritation and discomfort in dogs.
It is important to note that aloe vera is toxic to dogs and other pets. If you suspect that your dog has ingested aloe vera or any part of the plant, seek veterinary care immediately.
How to Feed Aloe Vera to Your Dog?
#1 Use only The Gel
Aloe vera leaves contain yellow latex that can be toxic to dogs. Make sure to use only the clear gel inside the leaves when feeding aloe vera to your dog.
#2 Start with A Small Amount
Introduce aloe vera to your dog’s diet gradually. Start with a small amount, such as a teaspoon, and observe how your dog reacts to it. If your dog shows any signs of discomfort, such as vomiting or diarrhea, stop feeding aloe vera immediately.
#3 Mix with Your Dog’s Food
Mix the aloe vera gel with your dog’s food to make it more palatable. This will also help your dog digest the aloe vera more easily.
#4 Use Fresh Aloe Vera
Use fresh aloe vera leaves instead of pre-packaged aloe vera gel. This will ensure that your dog is getting the most nutrients from the plant.
#5 Don’t Overfeed
Aloe vera should be given to your dog in moderation. Too much aloe vera can cause digestive upset and diarrhea. Stick to small amounts and only feed aloe vera occasionally.
#6 Consult with Your Vet
Before adding aloe vera to your dog’s diet, it’s important to consult with your veterinarian. They can advise you on the appropriate amount to feed and any potential risks or side effects.
By following these tips, you can safely feed aloe vera to your dog and potentially reap its health benefits.
After researching the topic of whether dogs can eat aloe vera or not, we can conclude that it is not recommended to feed aloe vera to your furry friend.
While aloe vera can provide some health benefits to dogs, such as improving gut health and soothing skin irritations, it can also be potentially toxic to dogs if consumed in large amounts. It can cause gastrointestinal upset, dehydration, and other adverse reactions.
If your dog accidentally ingests aloe vera, it is important to monitor them closely for any signs of distress and contact your veterinarian immediately if you notice any concerning symptoms.
Overall, it is best to avoid feeding aloe vera to your dog and instead stick to a balanced and nutritious diet designed specifically for their needs. If you are looking for natural remedies to improve your dog’s health, consider consulting with your veterinarian to find safe and effective alternatives.

My night thoughts spider scuttle
to the web of thoughts,
to be forgotten in the halogenic daylight.
Pigeon heralds coo chromatic arches of the dawn,
and by the afternoon’s descent,
a gentle samba on a headland far away
calls in the rain.
Lightning flashes in the belly of the city sky,
deus irae in smoky yellow,
and castle clouds are falling
in plastotechnic raindrops
that merge and rise to build again
as solid as the world.
The walls that once were painted by Sereia—
the marble halls beneath the sea,
have been defaced,
graffitied by a stranger’s hand,
and in the kitchen, I come across
a part-time stranger,
tossing potato salad.
Her eyes are speckled quail’s eggs.
She sees too much, she hears too much—
other’s sad goodbyes, unanswered lamentations,
dissonant harmonics on the wind
that long ago I chose to put aside.
Do not intromit yourself
into the affairs of others.
I have no place in your pathetic circus,
I’m just a summer memory,
cheap perfume on a pillow.
While the salad’s floating at its apogee
beneath the kitchen ceiling,
we inspect the bedroom walls.
It wasn’t me, you drew it in your sleep:
a child’s sea of lines and cusps,
I compare the cursive mystery with
standard potato salad—
there are similarities and differences,
and I remember colored ink
hidden in chameleonic darkness,
In dusty academia, I teach the elements
of anti-grav potato salad theory
pro bono to a class of automated chefs.
But before the seasons turn,
those androids will be missing me,
wiping away their hydroelectric tears.
I’ll farewell this airless planet, fly by
salad-powered spacecraft to the moon,
and find the dreams and strangers

Elon Musk Makes BIG 2024 Prediction
(ConservativeHub.com) – Tesla CEO Elon Musk made it clear he is throwing his support in the 2024 race behind Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) in a July 11 tweet. His post called former President Donald Trump too old to run again and noted the governor could “easily win” the White House over President Joe Biden. The billionaire even said DeSantis wouldn’t need to do any campaigning.
Trump would be 82 at end of term, which is too old to be chief executive of anything, let alone the United States of America.
If DeSantis runs against Biden in 2024, then DeSantis will easily win – he doesn’t even need to campaign.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 12, 2022
Musk revealed in June that he was considering choosing the Florida governor for president in the next election. His remarks came on the heels of him announcing he would vote Republican after being a life-long Democrat.
Elon Musk has doubled down on his support for Ron DeSantis to win the presidency in 2024: 'He doesn't even need to campaign' https://t.co/YQRYIAXi6S
— Insider News (@InsiderNews) July 14, 2022
Trump responded to the SpaceX CEO’s tweets on Truth Social on July 13, saying Musk practically begged for his help when he was in office to get subsidies for his companies. The former president also suggested the billionaire should focus on the “Twitter mess,” referring to Musk’s previous plan to buy out the platform, instead of him.
On the fringe of this exchange between the two powerful men, Governor DeSantis said he appreciated Musk’s backing as he can always use support from “African Americans.” Still, he has not committed to a 2024 run for the White House and says he’s maintaining his focus on his reelection in 2022.
Who would you prefer as a presidential GOP candidate in 2024: DeSantis or Trump?

The Baltimore Ravens open 2020 NFL training camp on July 28 at the Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills, Maryland. Here's a closer look at a few storylines:
What's the next step for Lamar Jackson after a unanimous NFL MVP season?
Become a more complete passer. Let's be clear, this is a much different storyline than last year at this time, when the biggest question facing the Ravens was Jackson's arm. He responded with a season that few could have imagined. Jackson led the NFL in touchdown passes (36) and Total QBR (81.8) while ranking eighth in completion rate (66.1%). It's easy to forget that Jackson is still the youngest starting quarterback in the AFC North at 23 years old. His game will continue to grow.
This year, there needs to be two areas of focus for Jackson: more efficient downfield passing and more involvement of the wide receivers. Last season, Jackson ranked 30th in completing 37.7% of his deep throws (passes that traveled at least 10 yards in the air) outside the numbers. He also relied less on his wide receivers (104 completions) than any other quarterback in the league, preferring to target his tight ends. Ravens coaches have talked this offseason about wanting Jackson to exploit defenses by throwing to different parts of the field. The challenge for Jackson is to accomplish this without spring offseason practices, where the foundation of last year's spectacular season was laid.
Who is facing the most pressure in this year's camp?
First-round pick Patrick Queen. The Ravens want the 28th overall pick to start at middle linebacker, which is a tough test considering the circumstances. Queen will line up in the heart of the defense without any offseason practices and without a tremendous amount of experience (his 16 career starts at LSU were the fewest by any defender selected in the first round of the 2020 draft). Defensive coordinator Don "Wink" Martindale believes Queen can handle it after speaking with him in the virtual meetings. He sees Queen as a smart and driven player. "He's going to rise to this challenge," Martindale said. "Will it be perfect? No, but we don't expect that coming out as a rookie... It's just like I told him, ‘If you are going to make a mistake, make it a 100 miles-per-hour mistake.' We can live with that."
Where's the biggest competition?
The interior of the offensive line. Honestly, you can predict every starting job outside of the line with near certainty. How Baltimore will eventually line up in front of the reigning NFL MVP is its biggest personnel issue. The Ravens were dominant up front last season, but there are questions after right guard Marshal Yanda retired and center Matt Skura underwent major knee surgery.
These are the only guarantees: Ronnie Stanley will protect Jackson's blind side at left tackle, Orlando Brown Jr. will line up at right tackle and Bradley Bozeman will start somewhere on the interior. D.J. Fluker, a seven-year NFL starter, is the favorite to replace Yanda but he will be pressed by Ben Powers and rookies Tyre Phillips and Ben Bredeson. At center, Skura is not expected to be fully recovered by the start of training camp and will battle Patrick Mekari and Bozeman once he's healthy. If Bozeman ends up at center, that opens up his starting spot at left guard. Expect the Ravens to roll out a lot of different lineups this summer to find the right combination.
What will the workload look like in a crowded Ravens backfield?
This depends on the development of Dobbins. At the start of camp, Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards will presumably sit atop the depth chart after helping the Ravens set the NFL's single-season rushing record. By the end of it, it wouldn't be surprising if Dobbins worked his way up to being the top backup to Ingram and began taking some of his touches to save the wear-and-tear on the 30-year-old back. Dobbins seems like the perfect fit for Baltimore, playing in a similar offensive system at Ohio State. But Dobbins would have to buck a long-standing trend. In John Harbaugh's 12 seasons in Baltimore, the only rookie running back to total more than 600 yards rushing was Edwards in 2018.
Is it Super Bowl or bust for the Ravens this season?
If the Ravens don't reach the Super Bowl this year, it would be a disappointment. Baltimore returns all but one starter on offense and upgraded its front seven, the weakest part of the defense. The Ravens are the betting favorites for every game this season. But Baltimore's prime window to win a championship is over the next two seasons, when it has Jackson under a cap-friendly deal. If Jackson continues to dazzle the league, the Ravens are going to have to reward him with a record-setting deal at some point.
The Ravens understand the difficulties of managing the cap when the quarterback takes up a huge chunk of it. Baltimore only reached the postseason twice in the six seasons after making Joe Flacco the highest-paid player in the NFL. Plus, consider this: Entering 2020, there have been eight instances of a quarterback playing a season with a contract that averages $30 million per season. Just three of them reached the playoffs in that season, and the best finish was a loss in the 2019 NFC Championship Game by Aaron Rodgers, according to ESPN Stats & Information. It's certainly not all or nothing this season, but the clock is certainly ticking for the Ravens.

From Sherlock to Alan Turing to Stephen Hawking, the roles that prepared BenCumb for his Marvel debut, Doctor Strange...
Alan Turing, The Imitation Game
Cumberbatch won plaudits for his portrayal of the quite possibly autistic WWII code-breaker Alan Turing. Turing was socially awkward, but also self-centred and arrogant, a description often given to Stephen Strange, before he becomes the superpower-enhanced sorcerer Dr Strange.
Stephen Hawking, Hawking
Ten years before Eddie Redmayne nabbed the Academy Award for his performance as Stephen Hawking, BC played the ace physicist in a BBC TV movie. Stephen Strange is definitely considered as brilliant in his field (surgery) as Professor Hawking is in his, while both are men of science.
Cumberbatch’s signature role, as Sherlock Holmes he is brilliant, infuriating, cavalier and wallopingly charismatic. In many ways, Sherlock Holmes is a superhero, a man so blindingly extraordinary that normal people call on him like he’s a one-man Avengers.
Guy Burgess, The Turning Point
Guy Burgess, whom BC played in the play The Turning Point in 2010, was a British intelligence officer whose life altered irrevocably when it was revealed he was a Soviet spy. When his treachery was uncovered, he fled to the Soviet Union, where he spent the rest of his days. Stephen Strange also survives a life-changing event, in this case the crushing of his hands, the result of which means he will never be able to perform surgery again.
Julian Assange, The Fifth Estate
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange may be a divisive figure, but BC’s performance as the chalk-topped Aussie proved the highlight of this wobbly biopic. Certainly, Dr Strange at the beginning of the film is meant to be a clever, but unlikeable individual, but we can trust BenCumb to find the humanity in Stephen Strange.
William Bulger, Black Mass
For a posh English boy brought up in the borough of Kensington and Chelsea, BC’s American accent in last year’s Black Mass was note-perfect. His role as Dr Strange will also require an US twang, that might prove alarming to those who only know him from Sherlock, but having flexed his vocal muscles getting it right for Black Mass, we trust it’ll be faultless by the time Dr Strange opens later this year.


When Stephen Weiss signed a five-year, $24.5 million contract to join the Detroit Red Wings, he probably knew things would be different than he’d become used to as a longtime member of the Florida Panthers.
Not that playing for his previous team was some sort of high-paid vacation, but winning a Stanley Cup with the Panthers was never a realistic goal while he was there. The fact Florida missed the playoffs in all but one of Weiss’s 11 seasons with the club was proof of that.
In Detroit, expectations are a tad higher.
“We explained the situation to him very clearly,” Wings head coach Mike Babcock said Tuesday, per MLive.com. “Told him if he wasn’t ultra-competitive he couldn’t come here. If he didn’t bring it every day he couldn’t come here, because he was going to hate it if he didn’t, dislike the coach and dislike playing here.
“It’s real straightforward. If you don’t do it right, you’re not happy here.”
Ideally, the addition of Weiss will allow Babcock to play superstars Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg together on the team’s top line, with Weiss holding down the No. 2 center spot.
While Babcock would like to see his new center tally in the neighborhood of 50 points, the coach will also be demanding a solid 200-foot game out of the 30-year-old.
“We think he has lots of skill set,” said Babcock. “He’s got to bring it every day. You got to play without the puck here. Simple.”
Plenty of betting options for World Cup final round
Jacob Trouba‘s agent Kurt Overhardt repeatedly shot down certain questions as “private” matters regarding a very public trade request from the Winnipeg Jets, yet his interview on TSN’s Hustler & Lawless spoke volumes about the impasse.
From the sound of things, it would be tough for the Jets to get Trouba to change course and sign a deal with the team.
Trouba seeks a spot as a top two defenseman, or at least one of a team’s top two options on the right side, something Overhardt firmly believes cannot happen in Winnipeg. He quickly deflected hypothetical scenarios regarding Dustin Byfuglien moving to the left or Tyler Myers getting bumped down the Jets’ depth chart.
“None of this is happening on a whim,” Overhardt said. ” … This has nothing to do with money.”
There has been no negotiation regarding the terms of a contract between our client and the Jets over the course of the last several months. The situation is not about money; it is solely about our client having the opportunity to realize his potential as a right shot NHL defenseman.
To the Jets credit, the club has two outstanding right shot veteran defensemen and our client simply wants the opportunity to have a greater role. As a consequence of the Jets depth on the right side, we believe it is in both parties’ best interest to facilitate a mutually advantageous trade.
The 23-year-old defenseman has to appreciate the fact that this is a one-way deal, as the Lightning blueline isn’t the easiest group to crack. (That will be especially true if James Wisniewski makes an impression with his PTO.)
Nesterov has been battling for ice time the past two seasons and was also a member of Russia’s World Cup team. It’s super-important to note that he wears No. 89, which is a little unusual for a defenseman.
It’s too early to say that MacArthur will be forced to retire after this latest injury. At the moment, the Senators were merely happy to see him at the rink receiving treatment, as Guy Boucher toldreporters.
It’s a thought echoed by Senators GM Pierre Dorion shortly after the check, noting that they’re most focused on MacArthur as a “human being.”
Many wonder if Sieloff will face repercussions – perhaps even being released – for delivering such a hit during a scrimmage, especially after just being acquired.
So far, it sounds like he isn’t getting much heat, at least beyond the initial reaction of players getting physical with him right after the check. Boucher said “we’re not pointing fingers at the young kid right now,” according to Warren.

Reflection Paper 1
By: Tenesha Blackmon
Western history and civilization is of vast importance to understanding the great story of humanity. The study of the ancient civilizations has shown itself to me to be a new found interest as the journey of the course had lead me to see the magnificent accomplishments of mankind, and the possibilities of our potential; both in glory and darkness. In this reflection paper, I will look back upon the beginnings of our studies of the development of the early civilizations from the Sumerians to the Roman Empire. The definition and development of civilization is characterized by 5 major important factors. The 5 characteristics are the existence of cities that inhabits many citizens, organized governments, specialized labor and trades, monumental architect, writing, and organized religion. In around 3, 000 B.C. Mesopotamia, the land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, was the 1st to develop urban civilization. Today this area is known to be modern day Iraq . The 1st civilization that we are introduced to are the Sumerians, whose inventions of ancient writing system, cuneiform, the wheel, and 1st number system proved to be a bench marker to upcoming civilizations. Others that followed pursuit were the Hittites. Known for their strong, well trained army, the Hittites were also crafty in the area of iron work. The Babylonians were next, followed by the Phoenicians whose contribution of the 1st alphabet was the major contribution of writing that served to be the building block for European languages. The small nation of the Hebrews had a big contribution of individual and moral self-sufficiency, monotheistic way of life, and historical value shapes the very fabric of western ideas that legacy is evident to the modern day society. Ancient kingdoms developed throughout the ages. The abilities to expand beyond their boundaries allowed the powerful and aggressive to build empires. Ancient Empires were many but there...

The work on "Africa's largest wind farm" has gained momentum after Abu Dhabi Energy Company – Masdar and its partners signed a deal with Egypt's New and Renewable Energy Authority to secure land for the project.
Set to be worth over $10 billion, the farm in Egypt is set to produce 47,790 GWH of clean energy per year and reduce the country's annual carbon emissions by 9 per cent.
"It is a sign of the strong partnership between the UAE and Egypt, with great potential to create jobs, cut emissions and power homes with clean electricity at competitive economical costs," said Dr Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and COP28 President-Designate.
The project will also help Egypt meet its strategic objective of sourcing 42 per cent of its energy from renewables by 2030. The 10 GW plant will save the country an estimated $5 billion in natural gas costs a year.
The initial agreement on the joint venture between Masdar and its partners Infinity Power and Hassan Allam Utilities was signed in 2022.
The consortium also signed agreements with Egyptian state-backed organisations to develop green hydrogen and derivatives’ production facilities, with a target capacity of 4 GW by 2030, and an output of up to 480,000 tonnes of green hydrogen per year.


Models of Internet congestion
Fri, 12 Sep 1997 09:35:54 +1000
Perhaps Linkers have seen this already.
Huberman and Lukose report on a model of Internet congestion, in an article
last month in Science [Huberman, B.A. and Lukose R.M., Social Dilemmas and
Internet Congestion, Science, vol 277, 25 July 1997, p 535]
They present a model based on assuming the public good will be consumed
greedily if users are not charged in proportion to their use, and that this
will lead to congestion patterns with predictable statistical properties.
Their model is borne out by measurements of latencies in ping packets
bewteen the US and UK.
The model predicts that "congestion problems as presently experienced by
Internet users would disappear if individuals were charged in proportion to
their bandwidth consumption."
This idea is not new, but it's nice to see a model that matches the real
world, and some predictions from it.

Staphylococci and Staphylococci Infections
Staphylococci and staphylococci infections
Staphylococci are a group of Gram-positive bacteria that are members of the genus Staphylococcus. Several infections are caused by staphylococci. In particular, infections associated with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus are an increasing problem in hospitals.
The name staphyloccus is derived from Greek (staphyle—a bunch of grapes). The designation describes the typical grape-like clustered arrangement of staphylococci viewed under a light microscope . Staphylococci are divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of the plasma-clotting enzyme called coagulase . The coagulase-positive staphylococci consist mainly of Staphylococcus aureus and the coagulase-negative group consists primarily of Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus saprophyticus. Because the treatment of infections caused by these bacteria can be different, the coagulase test provides a rapid means of indicating the identity of the bacteria of concern.
Staphylococci are not capable of movement and do not form spores. They are capable of growth in the presence and absence of oxygen. Furthermore, staphylococci are hardy bacteria, capable of withstanding elevated conditions of temperature, salt concentration, and a wide pH range. This hardiness allows them to colonize the surface of the skin and the mucous membranes of many mammals including humans.
Staphylococcus aureus is the cause of a variety of infections in humans. Many are more of an inconvenience than a threat (e.g., skin infection, infection of hair follicles, etc.). However, other infections are serious. One example is a skin infection known as scalded skin syndrome. In newborns and burn victims, scalded skin syndrome can be fatal. Another example is toxic shock syndrome that results from the infection of a tampon with a toxin-producing strain (other mechanisms also cause toxic shock syndrome). The latter syndrome can overwhelm the body's defenses, due to the production by the bacteria of what is called a superantigen. This superantigen causes a large proportion of a certain type of immune cells to release a chemical that causes dramatic changes in the physiology of the body.
Staphylococci can also infect wounds. From there, the infection can spread further because some strains of staphylococci produce an arsenal of enzymes that dissolve membranes, protein, and degrade both DNA and RNA . Thus, the bacteria are able to burrow deeper into tissue to evade the host's immune response and antibacterial agents such as antibiotics . If the infection spreads to the bloodstream, a widespread contamination of the body can result (e.g., meningitis , endocarditis, pneumonia , bone inflammation ).
Because staphylococci are resident on the skin of the hands, the bacteria can be easily transferred to objects or people. Within the past few decades the extent to which staphylococci infection of implanted devices is a cause of chronic diseases has become clear. For example, contamination of implanted heart valves and artificial hips joints is now recognized to be the cause of heart damage and infection of the bone.
Additionally, the ready transfer of staphylococci from the skin is an important reason why staphylococci infections are pronounced in settings such as hospitals. Staphylococcus aureus is an immense problem as the source of hospital-acquired infections. This is especially true when the strain of bacteria is resistant to the antibiotic methicillin and other common antibiotics. This resistance necessitates more elaborate treatment with more expensive antibiotics. Furthermore, the infection can be more established by the time the antibiotic resistance of the bacteria is determined. These so-called methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are resistant to only a few antibiotics currently available. The prevalence of MRSA among all the Staphylococcus aureus that is isolated in hospitals in the United States is about 50%. The fear is that the bacteria will acquire resistance to the remaining antibiotics that are currently effective. This fear is real, since the MRSA is prevalent in an environment (the hospital) where antibiotics are in constant use. Development of a fully resistant strain of Staphylococcus aureus would make treatment of MRSA infections extremely difficult, and would severely compromise health care.
Staphylococci are also responsible for the poisoning of foods (e.g., ham, poultry, potato salad, egg salad, custards). The poisoning typically occurs if contaminated food is allowed to remain at a temperature that allows the staphylococci to grow and produce a toxin. Ingestion of the toxin produces an intestinal illness and can affect various organs throughout the body.
The need for more effective prevention and treatment strategies for staphylococcal infections is urgent, given the wide variety of infections that are caused by staphylococci and the looming specter of a completely resistant staphylococcus.

Dentist | How To Keep Your Teeth Healthy And Sparkling: A guide From Above & Beyond Dental
Are you one of those people who dread going to the dentist? Do you feel like you’re not getting the best dental care possible? You may be surprised to learn that there are ways to keep your teeth healthy and sparkling without leaving Cedar Park. Check out our guide from Above & Beyond Dental for more information! We’ll help you learn about different dental treatments, how to brush and floss effectively, and what foods to avoid. Keep your smile looking its best with our helpful tips!
Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time
Brushing your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time is essential to keep them healthy and sparkling. Brushing your teeth removes plaque and bacteria, which can cause cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease. It’s also important to floss once a day to remove any plaque or bacteria your toothbrush may have missed.
If you want to keep your teeth healthy and sparkling, brush them twice daily for two minutes each time. Brush the front, back, and top of your teeth using a toothbrush with soft bristles. Be sure to use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste on your toothbrush. Spit out the toothpaste after brushing, and don’t rinse your mouth with water.
Floss at least once a day
Flossing is an essential part of oral care, but it’s often overlooked. Flossing at least once daily is the best way to keep your teeth healthy and sparkling. It removes plaque and bacteria from your teeth and gums and can help prevent gum disease and other dental problems. If you’re not sure how to floss correctly, here are some tips:
- Use a piece of floss that’s about 18 inches long.
- Wrap the floss around your middle finger, and hold it between your thumb and index finger.
- Gently guide the floss between your teeth using a back-and-forth motion.
- Be careful not to snap the floss into your gums.
- Don’t forget to floss behind your last tooth!
Flossing may seem like a chore, but it’s worth it for healthy teeth and gums. Ask your dentist or hygienist for advice if you find it challenging to floss on your own.
Use Mouthwash Daily
Mouthwash is an essential part of oral care. It helps to remove bacteria and plaque from your teeth and gums and can help to prevent tooth decay and gum disease. It is important to use mouthwash daily, as it can provide significant benefits to your oral health. Mouthwash can help kill bacteria, reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. It can also help remove plaque, leading to better oral hygiene. In addition to its oral health benefits, mouthwash can improve your breath.
Bad breath can be embarrassing and uncomfortable, but mouthwash can help to eliminate bad breath caused by bacteria. Mouthwash can freshen your mouth and make your teeth feel clean and sparkling. If you want to improve your oral health and freshen your breath, consider using mouthwash daily. Mouthwash is available at most pharmacies and drug stores and is easy to use. Rinse your mouth with the mouthwash for 30 seconds to one minute, then spit it out. It would help if you used mouthwash twice daily for the best results.
Eat healthy foods and limit sugary drinks
It’s no secret that eating healthy foods and limiting sugary drinks is essential for our overall health, including the health of our teeth. But in what specific ways can we keep our teeth healthy and sparkling? First and foremost, eating a variety of healthy foods is essential. This includes plenty of fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains. These foods provide us with the vitamins and minerals our teeth need to stay healthy.
In addition, it’s important to limit sugary drinks. Soft drinks, fruit juices, energy drinks, and sports drinks are all high in sugar and can damage our teeth over time. It’s best to stick to water or milk instead. Finally, we should visit our dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings. By keeping up with regular dental care, we can ensure that our teeth stay healthy and sparkling for years to come!
See your dentist for regular checkups and cleanings
Maintaining healthy teeth and gums is essential for your overall health. You can keep your teeth healthy and sparkling by seeing your dentist for regular checkups and cleanings. Your dentist can help you to identify any potential problems early on before they become more serious. Additionally, keeping your teeth clean at home is essential for good oral health. Brushing and flossing regularly helps to remove plaque and bacteria from your teeth and gums. For the best results, use fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush.
Keep your toothbrush in a dry place
Dentists recommend that you keep your toothbrush in a dry place to prevent the growth of bacteria. When toothbrushes are stored in a wet environment, the bristles can become frayed and misshapen, making them less effective at cleaning your teeth. In addition, damp toothbrushes provide the perfect conditions for bacteria to grow, which can lead to infections. If you are concerned about bacteria, you can invest in a toothbrush holder with an antimicrobial coating. By taking these simple steps, you can help to keep your toothbrush clean and safe.
Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for keeping your teeth healthy and sparkling. In this guide from Above & Beyond Dental, you will learn about oral care basics, such as brushing and flossing correctly, and more advanced techniques, like dental implants and braces. By following these tips, you can keep your smile looking its best for years to come!
At Above & Beyond Dental, we understand the importance of good oral hygiene. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you keep your teeth healthy and sparkling. To get started, brush your teeth at least twice a day using fluoride toothpaste’s also essential to floss regularly, as flossing can remove plaque and bacteria from between your teeth. If you have any questions or concerns about your oral health, please don’t hesitate to contact our office. We would be happy to help you get on the path to perfect oral health!

Hacking photosynthesis could grow up to 60% more food, on the same land we use today, according to an international team of researchers.
According to a new study published in Nature Plants, scientists from the University of Essex have resolved two major photosynthetic bottlenecks to boost plant productivity by 27% in real-world field conditions.
Researchers and innovators are looking at more resilient crops and farm animals to adapt to a world with rising temperatures and at-risk food supplies.

Tory Clarke shares how COVID-19 has impacted her work on the RIPE project at The Australian National University.
U.S. Senior Executive scientist Dr. Chavonda Jacobs-Young explains that being true to one's team helps to build an atmosphere of trust by acting authentically and holding each other to high standards.
Komorebi is a Japanese word that describes how light filters through leaves — creating shifting, dappled “sunflecks” that illustrate plants’ ever-changing light environment. Crops harness light energy to fix carbon dioxide into food via photosynthesis.
Climate change feels like an unprecedented global challenge. But the truth is, humanity has been here before — approximately 11,000 years ago. That’s when the last Ice Age ended.

Police used special powers to disperse a crowd of around 50 people that protested outside a Hindu temple in Coventry last night. Yesterday (Thursday September 22) West Midlands Police announced there would be “an appropriate police presence” ahead of the protest outside the Hindu Temple Society Coventry in Stoney Stanton Road.
West Midlands Police also revealed it would have Section 60 and other powers in place for parts of Coventry and Sandwell between 3.30pm yesterday and 6.30am today (Friday September 23). This meant the force had extra powers to stop and search people, could oblige people to remove masks and had the power to disperse groups.
A spokesman for West Midlands Police this afternoon said: "This week we’ve seen protest groups gathering in Smethwick and Coventry. Last night (September 22) we saw around 50 people gather near the Mandir (Hindu temple) in Stoney Stanton Road, Coventry.
"Officers engaged with the group and they were dispersed using special powers which were granted to us. No arrests were made."
On Tuesday (September 20) around 150 people gathered in Smethwick which resulted in some minor disorder. One person was arrested who has since been released with no further action.
The West Midlands Police spokesman added: "The reasons surrounding the protests are complex but we are working closely with community leaders to understand and manage the issues. We continue to ask you to be mindful of misinformation and rumour on social media.
"This can have a serious impact on communities. Please only share information you know to be true. If you are unsure, please do not share it.
"We have seen several incidences fake news and unsubstantiated claims being spread widely online and through messaging apps."
Statement issued by West Midlands Police cited examples of what it described as misinformation and rumour around the Smethwick protest on Tuesday.
* Rumours that a shopkeeper in the Dudley area was involved in the protests, prompting him to be racially abused. The shopkeeper was not involved in the protest, and two people have been arrested for racially aggravated public order offences.
* Reports that two young men were attacked in Oldbury during a protest. The police say they have had no reports of this happening.
* A picture of a police officer at a mosque is being used to suggest that the force is not impartial. It said this is not true, and the image was taken at the start of this month during a routine visit by officers in Birmingham.
* Coaches from other parts of the region were planning to arrive in the West Midlands on Wednesday night to cause problems. The force says this did not happen.
The West Midlands Police spokesman said: “We will continue to monitor and keep you informed of any further fake news or unsubstantiated claims that are being shared. We also will not tolerate social media being used to commit hate crime offences."
The police also launched a criminal investigation into a widely shared video appearing to show a man making threats. A 37-year-old man has now been arrested in connection with that.
Any crime motivated by hostility or prejudice towards people because of their faith, race, sexual orientation, disability, or gender identity is a hate crime. The force spokesman said: "This morning (September 23) we arrested a 37-year-old man from Birmingham on suspicion of publishing material with intent to incite religious hatred. The man handed himself in and will be questioned in due course.
"A further video has been identified and is currently being assessed. We have local officers on the streets, and are engaging with faith leaders and other key stakeholders in our communities, to keep us informed and better understand how people are feeling.
"Feel free to talk to them if you need to, or contact us via Live Chat or by calling 101 if you have concerns. We have appropriate policing plans in place to deal with any further incidents should they occur, and will continue to closely monitor what is happening.

Overall, the results of these experiments demonstrate that existing terrestrial wireless sensor network solutions have limited applicability for wireless underground sensor networks. Reliable communication between an underground and a surface node was only achievable over a range of 7 m, even with the underground node placed at a relatively shallow depth of 6 cm. While the results are encouraging in that they demonstrate communication with a mote buried at shallow depths is possible, even at the high frequency of 2.4 GHz used by the MicaZ, they clearly show that challenges exist in the underground environment that are not addressed by terrestrial WSN solutions.

In a music festival called City of Trees, of course there must be Cake. The alternative-rock band is among the most successful musical acts to break from this so-called City of Trees, honing its act at Sacramento clubs before a career that’s ascended to the top of the album charts. (Bonus “you know you’re from Sacramento” points if you ever saw Cake at Drago’s Cafe, now the site of midtown’s Golden Bear).
That Cake connection to trees goes even further. The group’s known for giving away an actual tree at its concerts, with the winner promising to care for the small tree and post a picture to the “Cake Forest” on the band’s website.
The chance to win a tree during Cake’s set will cap a full day of the festival Saturday at Gibson Ranch. It’s the debut of City of Trees, an alternative-rock festival presented by Radio 94.7 which also features Of Monsters And Men, James Bay and more.
Cake founder John McCrea has usually thrown shade at the notion of playing large-scale festivals, preferring a more intimate concert experience than performing to a crowd that’s spent all day subjected to the elements. But he’s cool with City of Trees and feels that festivals on the whole are becoming better managed.
“I really used to hate the festival experience,” said McCrea, in a phone call from his Bay Area home. “I think people get really tired and thirsty and dusty at festivals. Now, the way I feel is a little different. It’s a much better experience than 10, 15 years ago. It was about packing as many of this genre with this much sales potential, and not as much consideration of: Is there enough drinking water? But I think they’ve improved. And if it is really hot (on Saturday) people will be really grateful for trees at Gibson Ranch.”
Cake’s currently between albums, and McCrea is eyeing late 2016 to release its latest music. The record will be the follow-up to 2011’s “Showroom of Compassion,” which debuted at the top of Billboard’s album charts. By selling 44,000 copies in a week, just a fraction of the usual blockbuster release, “Showroom of Compassion” set a record for the lowest-selling album to top the charts.
Either way, the band members viewed the No. 1 slot as a victory for the little guys. “Showroom of Compassion” was a self-released effort, unlike its previous albums, which were backed by major labels.
“Our music, although it’s had some commercial success, it’s just not about that for us,” said McCrea. “It was an album that people said, ‘If you try and release this on your own label, it’ll be fraught with difficulty. You really should stick with a label.’ We didn’t listen to that, and we did OK. For those reasons it was a salutatory moment for us.”
As a songwriter with a wry sense of contemporary culture and current events, it’s certainly a ripe time for subject matter, especially as the current presidential race unfolds and rhetoric becomes ever thick. The challenge for McCrea is to craft lyrics that don’t sound dated a few years down the line, that they’re not overly connected to a particular time and place. The greater goal is to tap into the spirit and tone of the day to create lyrics that reflect more universal truths.
“I don’t like the idea of making music that’s only useful during a very short period of time,” said McCrea. “It’s a great time, but also a time to be careful about it, in terms of not getting so carried away with the drama of the moment that you forget about making a song that might be useful in a different decade. I like listening to music from 70 years ago that still makes sense to me.”
Meanwhile, Cake will soon be shedding more of its Sacramento lineage. Bassist Gabe Nelson will depart the band in September, leaving trumpeter Vince DiFiore as the sole Sacramentan in Cake. Though Cake formed in Sacramento circa the early 1990s, McCrea has called Oakland home for 10 years and drummer Paulo Baldi also lives in the Bay Area. Guitarist Xan McCurdy calls Portland home.
McCrea sees Sacramento as fairly different place, especially in terms of the cost of living, compared to the city that hosted Cake’s first gigs more than 20 years ago.
“The reason why Sacramento worked for me in terms of starting a band had a lot to do with something that’s now more scarce, which is cheap rent,” said McCrea. “If you want to do things that society doesn’t automatically value, like songwriting or writing novels, you need cheap rent. In terms of being able to ride your bike around midtown and live in an apartment that’s $375 a month, that’s pretty much gone. I love the downtown and midtown area, and I really like most of what’s happening to it. But it is a little sad to watch friends of mine who are artists being pushed out.”
But this City of Trees remains connected to Cake. The band still runs a solar-powered studio in East Sacramento, and McCrea visits about once a month. And soon it will be time for one lucky festivalgoer to win one of Cake’s trees.
“We usually refrain from doing our tree thing at festivals, because of the vomit and dust and drunkenness,” said McCrea. “But I think at this one we’ve just got to. Thematically, it makes sense.”

I think this bill was $1.3 Trillion which is crazy and the Democrats are crying again about "why should we read it out loud before we pass it"? (Democratic Sen. John Kerry on that exact remark - video) Probably because it's almost 2,000 pages long and full of useless crap and earmarks and doesn't actually get to the issues and how to fund programs and the federal government for the next fiscal year that's why.
Statement from GOP Sen. Mitch McConnell's desk - Due to a lack of Republican support for the 2,000-page spending bill, the Majority Leader (Reid) will not be calling it up. Looks like the Senate will be doing a short-term CR instead.
"There is only one reason cloture is not being filed" on the 2,000-page omnibus spending bill, McConnell said. They "don't have the votes."
h/t Red State
Via William Jacobson, Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) has opted to forgo the porked up Omnibus Spending bill in favor of a much more slimmed down continuing resolution. The new measure would likely only fund the government for a few months allowing Republicans to control the overall shape of the remainder of the fiscal year ending Sept 30th.
Senator Reid’s published version of what happened is that he lost the support of Republicans who had previously announced that they would support the bill. If that is true, then this surely is a big win for conservative activists who put a lot of pressure on Republicans to oppose the massive increase in spending represented by this bill. Republicans now have the opportunity to really push for some sanity when it comes the size and scope of the government.

The average weekly retail on-highway diesel price slipped for the fourth consecutive week, this time falling 0.7 cent to $2.931 for the week ending Monday, Sept. 6, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. The price, which has fallen 6.0 cents since Aug. 9, is 28.4 cents higher than the same week last year. DOE’s weekly roundup of diesel prices was delayed one day because of the Labor Day holiday.
Regions tracked by DOE saw a mix of increases and decreases. The biggest increase, 0.3 cent, was found on the West Coast, where prices climbed to $3.104, the nation’s highest price by region. The smallest increase, 0.2 cent, was found in the Rocky Mountains, where prices climbed to $3.021.
The biggest decrease, 1.3 cents, was found in the Central Atlantic, where prices fell to $3.007. The smallest decrease, 0.1 cent, was found in New England, where prices dipped to $2.995. The nation’s lowest price by region, $2.876, was found on the Gulf Coast, where prices fell 1.2 cents.
California, which DOE tracks separately for its weekly update, saw a price decrease of 0.5 cent to $3.145; that price is 27.9 cents higher than the same week last year.

I hope for your sake that you didn't get stopped out @ 38 1/4 on Friday! Walgreen is in the middle of another leg up here. Why would you place a stop loss order so close to the current selling price anyway? You run the risk of getting bumped out of the stock on a slight (in your case, very slight) dip in the price. A more reasonable place for a stop loss order is 12-15% below the price you paid for the stock. Then, as the price rises, you can move the order up with it. Also, I would avise beginners NOT to watch the stock as closely as you say you are. It will drive you nuts trying to figure out the irrational moves in the price of your stocks and the market as a whole!
Good advice. Too many people get caught up in the day-to-day movement of stocks. Because there has to be a buyer for every seller, sometimes things get out of whack. A good stock like WAG continues to grow over time. I bought 500 shares initially about 4-5 years ago; I now own 2,000 shares because of splits and the value today is worth over 4 times my original investment. You're right on - buy and hold for the long term. THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY IS MADE.

“Curved, Pointy, and Nervous-Looking Types”
Fonts by Hoefler&Co.
AUGUST 12, 2009
It is 1953, and you are a graduate student at the Yale University School of Art. Alvin Eisenman has just established a new discipline called “graphic arts,” in which you are studying — under the legendary Josef Albers, Herbert Matter, and Alvin Lustig — a new approach to design, which will come to be known as Modernism.
