hi, i would really like to buy a 5403 hub but missed both order cutoffs as i'm new to ES.
was wondering if anyone bought any spares to sell on or if anyone dropped out or is thinking of dropping out.
would be very appreciative and would also to be willing to pay a little over the odds (not too much;) for someone to let go of a spare they may have ordered. if i have to.
if anyone has one or could advise me on how to get one..like maybe how to contact kenny@xlyte to plead adding one to the order or buying direct.

I LOVE these goggles. Honestly I'm never going to buy another goggle after having tried these. The dimming ability is very slight. You can still wear these at night and during the day its not as good as sunglasses but its better than nothing. Super comfy and they don't fog. I'd highly recommend.

The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is connective tissue located within the knee. The PCL connects the thighbone to the shinbone. This connection keeps the shinbone from moving too far backward, stabilizing the knee.
Treatment depends on the severity of the injury.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The PCL ligament can become strained or torn when a strong force is applied to it. This force can occur during sports or other high-stress activity.
The following factors increase your chance of injuring the PCL:
A PCL tear may cause:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Images may need to be taken of the internal structure of your knee. This can be done with:
Ligament sprains are graded according to their severity:
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Recovery time ranges depending on the grade of your injury. Treatment steps may include:
Your ligament will need time to heal. Avoid activities that place extra stress on the knee:
Your doctor may recommend a knee brace to stabilize the knee, and crutches to keep extra weight off your leg.
To reduce pain and swelling, apply an ice pack to the area for 15-20 minutes, four times a day, for several days after the injury. Do not apply the ice directly to your skin. Wrap the ice pack in a towel.
To manage pain, your doctor may recommend:
Compression can help prevent more swelling. Your doctor may recommend an elastic compression bandage around your knee. Be careful not to wrap the bandage too tight.
Elevation can also help keep swelling down. Keep your knee higher than your heart as much as possible for the first 24 hours or so. A couple of days of elevation might be recommended for severe sprains.
Use heat only when you are returning to physical activity. Heat may then be used before stretching or getting ready to play sports to help loosen the ligament.
When the acute pain is gone, start gentle stretching as recommended. Stay within pain limits. Hold each stretch for about 10 seconds and repeat six times. Stretch several times a day.
Begin strengthening exercises for your ligaments as recommended.
If you are diagnosed with a PCL injury, follow your doctor's instructions .
Surgery may be needed to fully restore function of the knee. The decision to have surgery should be made after discussion with your doctor about your athletic needs, age, and associated factors.
Some steps that may help decrease your chance of getting a PCL injury include:

By Andrew Barksdale Staff writer
Last year, the Fayetteville Police Department logged 151 complaints.
Police Sgt. Gary Womble described that number as quite small out of the more than 222,000 calls for service the police had last year. At a community forum on law enforcement Thursday night, Womble explained the process for the public to file complaints.
"We take these things very seriously at the Fayetteville Police Department, and we investigate them thoroughly," he said. "And you can expect to be contacted and updated in a timely manner."
He said that in 2011, there were 56,264 traffic stops and 21 biased-based policing complaints. His boss, Lt. Christopher Davis, said no allegation of biased-based policing was substantiated.
Womble, who works in the department's Office of Professional Standards and Inspections, compared Fayetteville to some of the state's larger cities. Greensboro police, for instance, had almost 300,000 calls for service and 69 complaints last year. Winston-Salem had about 122,000 calls for service and 15 complaints.
Thursday was the third in a series of educational forums organized by the city of Fayetteville and designed to foster a better relationship between the public and the police. All of the meetings have included video presentations and information on consent searches and the in-car camera systems.
Thursday's event at the J.D. Fuller Recreational/Athletic Complex off Bunce Road had about as many people from the public as the 14 employees from the Police Department.
"Anytime we get people to come out, it's a great outreach tool," said interim Police Chief Katherine Bryant.
The Police Department came under scrutiny last year over its practice of consent searches during traffic stops. Groups such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Fayetteville Area Minority Lawyers Association had worried that some drivers, either out of confusion or intimidation, were being needlessly searched. Top police and city officials denied accusations of racial profiling, and an independent review this year was unable to document any wrongdoing.
In 2011, according to police data reported to the state, 73 percent of all drivers and passengers subjected to searches in the city were black.
In response to the concerns, the Police Department updated its traffic stop procedures, installed camera systems in 198 police vehicles and started using signed consent forms that tell drivers they may decline to be searched when there is no arrest or probable cause. The city hopes to form a citizen review board next year to hear appeals by people dissatisfied with the outcomes of their complaints against police. The review board cannot be implemented without the adoption of a local bill by the General Assembly.
Jimmy Buxton, president of the Fayetteville branch of the NAACP, said the meetings have been informative, but he has been disappointed by the public's poor attendance.
"We are probably going to have to think outside the box and do a little something else," he said.

Hathay Buano is involved with many projects to alleviate poverty in rural Bangladesh, one of which is monga. Monga means 'near starvation' and refers to a period of 2-4 months between planting and the Aman, the harvest, when there is little or no work and people suffer hunger through the lack of ability to be able to buy food. By training communities in handicrafts people are able to continue to earn throughout the rainy season and thereby are able to buy food.

The NOVOstar is an exciting product for cell-based kinetic assays and research development
This unique benchtop multidetection microplate reader offers five separate reading modes including fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, time-resolved fluorescence, luminescence, and UV/Vis absorbance plus the flexibility of an on-board programmable transfer pipet, up to two reagent injectors and a dual microplate carrier for a reagent and measurement plate and much more. Using this system, up to 384 compounds can be screened e.g. in a signalling assay – virtually impossible to do using a conventional plate reader.
The NOVOstar has a dual microplate carrier that allows the user to designate a reagent and measurement microplate. Furthermore, the NOVOstar includes a unique integrated transfer pipet and two additional syringe injectors. All three liquid dispensing devices have direct access to the measurement position, allowing plate reading before, during and after addition of liquid samples. The transfer pipet is able to aspirate, dispense, and mix precise volumes of fluids from the reagent plate or from three reagent stations (e.g. standard agonist/antagonists, ionophore, washing, etc.) providing you with flexibility in assay design. Top/bottom reading, incubation up to 45°C, gas vent connection multi-mode shaking, up to four liquid delivery events per well, premixing, and user-defined kinetic sampling rates are only some of the outstanding features of the NOVOstar.
The NOVOstar can be used for nearly all applications that can currently be read by BMG LABTECH's POLARstar OPTIMA microplate reader. Due to its integrated programmable pipettor system, the NOVOstar is especially well-suited to screen large numbers of compounds in kinetic cell-based assays or to create a dose response curve by measuring a wide range of analyte concentrations. The NOVOstar is one of the few instruments that can measure kinetic events with a resolution of 20ms, allowing for calcium uptake assays to be performed with great precision. Applications that the NOVOstar is targeted for include: Ca2+ uptake, membrane potential studies, intracellular pH, measurement of intracellular ionic changes, fluorescent reporter gene assays, as well as traditional biochemical assays and many more.
The NOVOstar comes with BMG LABTECH's established Reader Control software and comprehensive Data Analysis Software, MARS. The highly intuitive software provides limitless possibilities for test set up where it is needed, but also offers a "Quick-Start" mode for running routine analysis with just 3 mouse clicks. In MARS, a Wizard guides the user through the entire data analysing process. Additionally, a Template Manager can be used for building complex data processing protocols. Improved robotic integration capabilities, digital signature and FDA 21 CFR part 11 compliance of MARS complete this software package.

Daly, Maureen
Maureen Daly 1921–
(Has also written under the name Maureen Daly McGivern) American short story writer, novelist, and nonfiction writer for children and young adults, and editor.
Maureen Daly's first novel, Seventeenth Summer, published in 1942, became the prototypical young adult novel. In this story of first love in a quiet Wisconsin town Daly describes the emotions of her protagonist, Angie, in a skillfully artless way, and through her makes all the intricacies of adolescent relationships come alive. Daly displays an intuitive sensitivity to teenagers and an ability to convey the sense of immediacy and urgency her characters feel. Some critics believe these aspects were due to the closeness of Daly's own age to those of her protagonists. However, her later stories and novels show her to be no less skilled in capturing the changeable moods of adolescence.
Daly has also written several works of nonfiction related to her extensive travels, such as Mention My Name in Mombasa and Spanish Roundabout, which exhibit a characteristic understanding of the people she meets and describes. Her most recent works of fiction have also been set abroad, many of them intended for younger children.
Daly has based her career on writing about what she has personally seen or felt. "I seem to travel far for the subject—or else write microscopically about things that happen right at home," she has written. Her consistent popularity with young people has proven both the universality of her experience and the success of its communication. (See also Contemporary Authors, Vols. 9-12, rev. ed., and Something about the Author, Vol. 2.)
Edith H. Walton
Lyrically young and breathless, "Seventeenth Summer" deals with one of the oldest themes in the world, the theme of first love, and deals with it in a fashion which is so unhackneyed and so fresh that one forgets how often the same story has been told before….
Prosaically and less sensitively handled, "Seventeenth Summer" might seem rather trite, its plot both thin and shopworn. Actually, by a kind of miracle, and perhaps because she is so close to an experience not easy to recapture, Miss Daly has made an utterly enchanting book out of this very fragile little story—one which rings true and sweet and fresh and sound. Nor, for all its charm, is her novel sentimental…. "Seventeenth Summer" is possessed of considerable humor and a kind of sturdy common sense. Not even in its most lyric moments is it saccharine. Completely up to date in its idiom and its atmosphere, vividly authentic in a warm and homely way, it seems to me to be as unpretentiously good a first novel as any one could ask—limited as is its scope. Simply, eloquently, Maureen Daly tells one how youth in love really feels—how it felt yesterday and how it feels today.

Anne Brooks
Such a story as ["Seventeenth Summer"] is tenuous and must be told with perfect timing, with well thought out and careful characterization and, above all, with atmosphere. Maureen Daly has done this expertly, with a technical skill that is above that of the average first novelist. To read the book is to revel for a few hours in small town heat, the slow pace of living,… the dimness of roadside houses where juke boxes play and young couples dance slowly together,… and most of all, the breathless, expectant sense of a seventeen-year-old, that the world is really beginning for her, that she has stepped into life.

J. G. E. Hopkins
If [Miss Daly] continues to read life with her present honesty and an increasing depth, she will be an important writer…. (p. 88)
The narrative of ["Seventeenth Summer"] is extremely slight; it rises to no great climaxes of action; the curve of its progress is emotional rather than dramatic. The author has, however, a native sense of form which rounds out and includes all the wealth of observation and sensibility which gives distinction to her story. The reader senses the same effect of a job done as well as it could possibly be done that one finds in such a novelist as Jane Austen; a complete success on a scale deliberately limited. Miss Daly knows adolescents; normal, healthy, fairly imaginative American boys and girls. These she gives us, and makes no attempt to soar, to uplift, to probe, or to exaggerate. For this reason alone, her book would have succeeded. And yet, more than this, her novel has reality in the true sense of a vastly abused word. It is the reality, not of nightmare and Krafft-Ebing and melodrama, as most American novelists and critics seem to define the word, but the reality of a middle-class Wisconsin home, much like thousands of other American homes where life is placid and thoughtful and kind….
The writing is excellent, although there are infrequent times where some forcing for effect may be noticed. "Seventeenth Summer" is filled with those infinite shadings of feeling which the mind...

Rebecca Lowrie
["Seventeenth Summer"] is very appealing. There is no effort to recapture the emotions of youth, or to give them the dewy touch of sentiment with which even elderly people in their thirties like to caress their memories. The seventeenth summer in a perfectly charming little girl's life writes itself in her own words from the June evening when Angie Morrow and Jack Duluth first smiled at each other in McKnight's drug store, to the August morning when she said "'Bye Jack" and started away to school….
Not all smooth, this seventeenth summer, but it is recorded with a limpid honesty and simplicity that make novels about adolescence seem pontifical and phony. Angie Morrow and Jack Duluth are the young people for whom the world should be made free—and beautiful.
Rebecca Lowrie, "Fiction: 'Seventeenth Summer'," in The Saturday Review of Literature (copyright © 1942 by Saturday Review; all rights reserved; reprinted with permission), Vol. 25, No. 22, May 30, 1942, p. 10.
Very successful, this etiquette book ["Smarter and Smoother"] for the "coke crowd". Written in breezy, slangy style, the author gets across good stuff on a variety of subjects from "What makes one guy the super-man of the study hall, and another the droop-of-the-troop", to "Smooth Dates" and "Petting". Parents should be thankful to Maureen Daly, for she gives all the advice and...

"Going to high school these days has developed into a profession," says Maureen Daly in ["Smarter and Smoother"] the best book, all things considered, on our high-school manners and ethics and their relation to those of later life, among many lately offered to the teens. One special advantage is the author's time of life; just old enough to look back on the teens, she has, as a novelist, already developed mature sympathy that lets her see them unclouded by the scorn the twenties often feel. Another is the confidence she has already inspired in high-school readers…. Above all, she has the advantage of knowing and speaking for small town high schools and the social scheme of the small town that is in its own way America….
Written directly to high-school students, its language is so utterly their own that in five years the book will need a glossary. Its advice, especially on boy-and-girl matters, is for this reason more likely to be heard, and hearts wounded at sixteen need advice just as much as if they were not likely to need it again, reasonably soon, for another non-lethal wound. And as the high-school world changes every four years, it would be a good idea for older people who have to do with the teens to brush up on their experience and find out what that world is at this time of writing.

Dwight L. Burton
Seventeenth Summer, perhaps captures better than any other novel the spirit of adolescence. Probably one reason for this is that the author was so near adolescence herself when she wrote the book. In fiction with adolescent protagonists and in our thinking about the adolescent generally, we have never freed ourselves from Booth Tarkington's influence, which has projected itself into 1951 as the Corliss Archer—Henry Aldrich tradition, a vision of adolescence which infuriates the adolescent, amuses some adults, and adds nothing to the understanding of either. Seventeenth Summer is a cogent refutation of Tarkington's Seventeen. Basically, Seventeenth Summer is a serious story because adolescents, particularly seventeen-year-olds, are basically serious-minded…. [Angie and Jack's] love is a serious, almost all-consuming kind of love, and this is important because adolescents can be serious about love, as the engagement rings on the fingers of high school girls affirm. The love between Angie and Jack has its erotic aspects, and this, too, is healthy. Many writers have been loath to admit the eroticism in adolescent relations.
In the magnificently conceived ending of the book, Angie, because of her summer love affair, gains a flash of insight into life. We are not left with the tacit promise that Angie and Jack will some day, despite separation, marry and live happily ever after. The fact that the book is...

[What's Your P.Q. (Personality Quotient)? is another] helpful book of advice for teen-agers by an author who seems to understand their dreams, aspirations, and bewildering experiences. The clever chapter headings are preceded by a paragraph of teen-age conversation in which a problem is posed.

Margaret A. Edwards
With the publication of Seventeenth Summer, the awakening of love was first depicted for teenagers in language they could understand….
Maureen Daly is unique. It is interesting that she has stood behind Seventeenth Summer as her testament to youth and has not converted her enormous popularity into specie of the realm. It is interesting that a generation of bobby-soxers despaired of by the moralists have identified themselves with unsophisticated Angie Morrow. It is interesting that in sixteen years no other story of first love has rivaled Seventeenth Summer in quality or popularity. (p. 70)

Richard S. Alm
Undoubtedly, the most widely talked about and most praised of all contemporary novels for the adolescent is Maureen Daly's Seventeenth Summer….
Novelists themselves have recognized the significance of Seventeenth Summer. Rette, the heroine of [Betty] Cavanna's A Girl Can Dream, senses what is great about the Daly novel when she reads it in preparation for a writing task of her own. (p. 156)
This sense of immediacy which Rette feels in reading Seventeenth Summer is the result of Daly's telling the story from Angie's point of view and capturing the excitement of a young girl bursting with happiness (sic) she wants to share with intimate friends. The story is a simple one of commonplace events, day-by-day life in a small Wisconsin town; yet it is an engrossing story because the reader is able to identify himself so closely with the reactions of the heroine. What might be sensational—Lorraine's affair with Martin—is played down, and the reader's attention is drawn, not to Lorraine's affair, but to Angie's reactions toward her sister. Angie's is a superb characterization. She is introduced as a rather naive seventeen-year-old, but during one summer she learns a great deal about boys, about her own emotions, and about growing up to face new problems and decisions. That the story does not end in a Hollywood manner with Jack and Angie walking off into the sunset together is a credit to...

Although [Twelve Around the World] has informational value and is a sincere and realistic attempt to interest American teen-agers in the problems and lives of their overseas counterparts, it lacks dimension, pace, humor, and warmth.
Sara L. Siebert, "Jr. Books Appraised: 'Twelve around the World'," in Junior Libraries, an appendix to Library Journal (reprinted from the November, 1957 issue of Junior Libraries, published by R. R. Bowker Co./A Xerox Corporation; copyright © 1957), Vol. 4, No. 3, November, 1957, p. 38.
(The entire section is 75 words.)
Alberta Eiseman
The subtitle of ["Twelve Around the World"], "True Accounts of the Lives and Countries of a Dozen Teenagers," is a better indication of the contents than the title itself. The author makes no attempt at covering the world: Western Europe is predominant, and whole continents are left out entirely. However, the "dozen teen-agers" she describes, and the countries in which they live, provide the subject-matter of fascinating and totally varied vignettes….
Sometimes Miss Daly tries to accomplish too much. It's hard to bring a person to life and describe a country, too, in twenty or thirty pages, and her asides are frequently confusing. The last chapter seems tacked on as an afterthought. Still, this is a fast-paced, interesting book, blessedly free of the preconceptions and chauvinism so often encountered in stories about other peoples.

Beverly Grunwald
["Mention My Name in Mombasa" is] a travel book written in a leisurely fashion: One feels that there were some "must-sees" for the McGiverns and their two youngsters, but that's all. The result is a frank and fresh series of anecdotes and impressions of other people and other ways of life by an appealing American couple who took time to observe and to live….
Life is fun and life is earnest, albeit phony, among the international starving artists, writers and category-defying queer characters in this tourist's paradise [in the south of Spain]. But it couldn't be funnier or earnester (Hemingway included) than the discussions of bullfighting and the aficionados….
Like all good travel books, a short whiff … is guaranteed to whet your appetite and make you dream, too.
Beverly Grunwald, "Other Ways, Other People," in The New York Times Book Review (© 1958 by the New York Times Company; reprinted by permission), November 16, 1958, p. 18.
A general view of Spain, its geography, architecture, topography, politics, religion, and climate are given [in Spanish Roundabout].

Maureen Daly … writes knowledgeably, and her sensitivity to Spain, her appreciation of its grace and its...

Lavinia R. Davis
["Spanish Roundabout"] is not a guide book in the usual sense. It is, rather, a cohesive series of profiles and sketches of Spain drawn from affection, experience and compassion … [The] emphasis is on people in contemporary Spain. Family life, bull-fighting, religious observances, cooking and teen-age mores are described so skillfully and with such a complete lack of condescension that the reader cannot help sharing the author's enthusiasm and eager curiosity. Similarly the treatment of individuals, whether brief notes on historical personages like Torquemada and Cervantes or the more detailed account of two contemporary teen-agers, will whet the appetite for more.

Margaret Sherwood Libby
["Spanish Roundabout"] has a freshness of approach which makes it appear to be the spontaneous conversation of the author about her impressions of a land she loves. Students in high school who are beginning the study of Spanish will receive a very happy introduction to Spain if they read it…. Most of the book generalizes about the country and people as a whole, but there are chapters on famous Spaniards, on the Moorish past and a final "diary without dates" telling of various cities from Cadiz to San Sebastian, with an excursion to the Island of Ibiza. While this is not as searching or as deeply concerned with showing all facets of the country as Claire Bishop's book on France ["French Roundabout"],… it selects wisely and offers the average young person a fine, enthusiastic first glimpse of a fascinating country.
Margaret Sherwood Libby, "Books for Boys and Girls," in New York Herald Tribune Lively Arts & Book Review (© I.H.T. Corporation; reprinted by permission), Vol. 37, No. 24, January 15, 1961, p. 38.∗
[The masterfully shaped, deftly molded vignettes of Sixteen and Other Stories] … stimulate meditation or anger or delight or wistfulness, certainly some emotion.

Ellen Lewis Buell
The nine short stories in ["Sixteen and Other Stories"] may not be so durable [as "Seventeenth Summer"] but the title piece … is cut from the same sturdy cloth. So also is "Love is a Summer Word." Each is charged with the intensity of youth and with the rueful awareness that first love is not always equal to the exigencies of the everyday world. There is a sense of irrevocable loss in "The Tall Grass," a quiet, beautifully stated mishap of childhood, and a fine example of the author's precise, sensuous observation of the natural world.
One is tempted to say that the most memorable of these stories are—like the tales of great lovers—the sad ones. But then there are "The Gift" and "Dust on the Pearls," vignettes drawn from Miss Daly's travels in Spain and Morocco, each happily resolved and each a testimony to love in a larger sense. Even though the tidy ending of "A Clean, Well-Lighted Tree House" left this reader not quite convinced, this tale offers an incisive approach to the problem of the over-solicitious stepmother. Whatever situation Miss Daly portrays she writes without condescension and with true empathy.

Margery Fisher
A younger sister could learn much and achieve a better understanding of her elders if she reads Maureen Daly's Seventeenth Summer, with its delicate but frank picture of an American small town and a girl working through her first love affair. Angeline Morrow belongs to a comfortable middle-class home and is disconcerted as well as flattered when Jack Duluth, who works in her father's bakery, begins to take her out. There is an anthropological exactness in the descriptions of drug-store and dance-hall, and of the stylized behaviour of young people who like to think themselves grown-up. Above all, Angeline's feelings, her fear and excitement and the inconvenient warnings of her fastidious mind, are convincingly described.

Mabel Berry
[In The Ginger Horse] twelve-year-old Rob, a Scottish miner's son, instinctively recognizes the desire for freedom in a wild ginger-colored pony which has been given a week's reprieve from his labor in the mine. Rob's efforts to let the pony escape involve him and his friend Katie in serious trouble. The growth of understanding which subsequently comes to the boy and his father gives real substance to this story with an unusual setting, well developed plot and finely drawn characters.

Ellen Goodman
"The Ginger Horse" is another variation on the theme of boy-meets-pony but Maureen Daly depicts characters and scenes more realistic than the usual storybook prototypes….
There is a good deal of information about Scottish life and the rigidity of any insular community. While the plot is totally predictable, the excellent character trimmings and the dusty aura of coal country turn a mediocre tale into pleasant if somewhat lightweight reading.

Ellen Goodman
[Maureen Daly's meek adventure The Small War of Sergeant Donkey] ends predictably with boy and burro saving the life of the soldier.
For one moment, the book rouses itself from mediocrity. The hungry boy, Chico, is thoughtlessly handed a chocolate bar by the American to feed to a U.S. Army donkey. As Chico's pride wars with his desire, the chocolate effectively represents the enormous gap between the Haves and Havenots. Unfortunately this instant of sensitivity is the exception in a book that reads more like a rough draft than a published novel.

If the title of [Seventeenth Summer] were changed to Fifteenth Summer, the entertaining story would seem as contemporary as the day it was published. Even so, it is still popular with youngsters and approved by adults. But because little girls are having their first encounters with dating and near-romance earlier these days, they need guidance sooner…. How and why Angie managed to weather [her] first encounters with romance and come through the summer a stable and wise girl makes a good story and presents a picture of growing up that younger girls can profit from.

Could Bill and Hillary Clinton become grandparents next year? That's the plan, anyway, for daughter Chelsea Clinton and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky.
In an interview with Glamour, Chelsea Clinton said the couple wants "to start a family."
"So we decided we were going to make 2014 the Year of the Baby," Clinton said.
Equally important to the plan, she told the reporter: "Call my mother and tell her that. She asks us about it every single day."
Clinton talked about her mother's impatience for grandchildren in a 2012 Vogue interview, saying they were thinking about starting a family in "a couple of years."
"And I hope my mom can wait that long," Clinton said at the time.
2014 is looking to be a busy year for Hillary Clinton as she potentially gears up for a 2016 presidential run. Just about every early 2016 poll puts the former secretary of state far ahead of any other possible competition for the Democratic nomination.

It may not be spring, but the chances are going up for severe weather in the Louisville area. For Louisville proper, we are in a heightened category, or moderate risk, of severe weather potential Sunday afternoon and evening.
Meanwhile the Storm Prediction Center has placed our northwestern counties in Indiana in a HIGH severe weather risk classification with the primary concern tornadoes and wind damage.
John Belski's Blog | Latest Weather Webcast | Hour by hour images | LiveWire
In addition a wind advisory has been issued for Kentucky and Indiana.
The moderate and high risk areas indicate where winds may gust up to and locally in excess of hurricane force.
There is also a potential for EF-2 or stronger tornadoes in that area although, at this time, the highest risk for that would be over eastern Illinois and western Indiana. Still, tornadoes are possible in the area through Sunday afternoon and evening in addition to the wind gust threat.
Alerts | Radar | Maps | U Local | Facebook
The time frame for storms is 3 to 9PM across the viewing area, with the threat beginning earliest west of Louisville.
The threat exists for widespread wind damage if storms congeal into a solid line ahead of the powerful cold front.
Non-severe thunderstorms are expected through tomorrow morning and may produce wind gusts over 35 mph and vivid lightning along with small hail.
WLKY will be updating you on this weather situation both on-air and online, as well as on our social media platforms.

Shirt Tied Around the Waist
The '90s resurgence is showing no signs of slowing, and we're delighted to see the revival of a classic mosh-pit styling trick: the shirt tied around the waist. Once a casual daytime staple, we love this layering technique for its devil-may-care nonchalance and surprising ability to work with eveningwear too. Whether you're aiming for that full-on grunge vibe with a plaid button-up like Candice Swanepoel, or prefer a sportier interpretation with a letterman jacket a la Rihanna, today's slideshow offers inspiration for every take on the trend.

Chesterfield, Virginia
I received this product in the mail as a sample. I love the results once I have applied it to my face but most of all, the fragrance that it gives off is AMAZING! I would also recommend this product :)
Clayton, New Jersey
I have recieved this product and it is just too cute. Not only does it have the most adorable packaging with a two toned applicator brush, it has a mirror which seals the deal! This blush/bronzer is super cute but also smells so organic it just makes me feel like I am using a $50 product. The versatility of this product is awesome. You can do 3 looks, bronzer, blush, or a combination of the two. This is a great product especially for us fair-skinned girls out there. It also claims to make you happy as you wear it due to the scent and some of the ingredients and I can sure notice a difference I am happy when I wear it! :)))) I love PF!!!!!!
Jackson, Missouri
I was very excited to get this product as a sample. I was worried the bronzer would be too dark for my skin and te blush looked very bright. I was pleasantly surprised after using it for a week. The colors are easy to blend and look great on! And as other reviewers have stated, the scent is wonderful! I would recommend this to all my friends.
Fort Worth, Texas
Since I have really fair skin, I tend to stay away from all bronzers. Usually, they all are too dark and it is too obvious that I have any on. Not this product! It is light enough even for the lightest of skin shades. Plus, it smells really good! I was not expecting that!
Norman, Oklahoma
This product smells really nice---not at all overpowering. The scent is really subtle. I also really like how many options you have with this product. It is nice to have so many shades of blush included. The packaging is also really cute! There is a little mirror under the product, and the little pink brush matches the case.
