How Tos For Your Bed
Easily the most important piece of furniture in your house, the bed makes it so you can get rest to work, decorate and stay healthy. But this piece of furniture also comes with what seems a zillion choices and the need for a lot of cash. Whether you're in a new, bare apartment, or you need new sheets, browse our tips for helping you make your bed.
• 1 Start with a Bed Frame, or Not
We'll start by assuming you already have a bed frame and maybe a headboard, since these choices are very personal choices. (Just in case, we think these are the basic frame decisions: Metal frame to hide with skirts? Wood frame to last a lifetime? Refinished traditional off of Craigslist? New modern from IKEA or West Elm?)
If you don't have, or want, a bed frame at all, check out our tips for bed-on-the-floor-on-purpose-look.
• 2 Choose a Mattress and Box Spring
Check out Austin contributor Adrienne Breaux's tips for choosing a mattress. If you have a platform bed, you don't have to use or buy a box spring (although using the box spring is necessary for some warranties.

• 3 Protect Your Mattress
Choose a mattress cover to protect your mattress from dirt and spills. We got one with a pillow top to give our mattress a little more comfort.
• 4 Learn Thread Counts and Choose Sheets
Julian Tomchin, Macy's former product developer, explains what thread count even means and warns us to be suspicious of thread counts over 400. He prefers cotton sheets, and a thread count in the range of 220 to 350.
As for colors and patterns, that's up to you. We prefer to have one crisp white set, one subtle pattern and one dark-colored set.

• 5 Cover Your Box Spring
Platform bed or no, we suggest covering your boxspring with a fitted sheet or cover. Chez Laarson also offers a how to for making a simple bedskirt.
• 6 Choose a Duvet
If you prefer piles of blankets or a comforter to a duvet and cover, skip to 6. For the rest of you, read on. Many people go with one summer-weight down duvet, and one winter-weight. We go for one winter-weight duvet, and then in the summer, use sheets and a quilt. When choosing duvets, pay attention to allergenic options, if you have allergies, and pay attention to the weight on the packaging to make sure you're choosing warmth appropriate to your climate. We go with a medium-weight duvet and then pile on more blankets if we're cold, because then the duvet can be put on earlier in the fall and last later into the spring.

• 7 Make your Bed
Choose the way that suits you best. We like crispness to our bed-making, so we try for hospital corners. Some ribbed us for our method, but the orderliness to our sheets has gone up 100 percent. No more accidentally untucking sheets at night. If you want a crisper method, there are lots of how tos for hospital corners on the Web.

Ultimately, the decisions you make must be personal and perfect for your lifestyle, and you'll learn what you like as you go. For example, we learned that our favorite sheets in the summer (which we spent lots of time researching) feel frigid in the winter. We also learned that while we like throw pillows on the bed, four throws plus four sleeping pillow was too many — we're now down to six total, instead of eight.

3 additional thoughts:
1. Sheets can feel wonderful in the store because they are coated with softeners and factory chemical -- but once you wash them they feel like burlap. If you're not sure about the quality, buy a pillowcase first and wash it a couple of times before investing in a whole set of sheets.
2. Threadcount should not be used as the final arbiter of quality. Many cheap sheets claim very high threadcount but are very rough once washed and wear out more quickly than real quality sheets. I'm a big fan of sheets from Wamsutta and The Company Store -- they're not cheap but they last forever -- and actually get softer with age.
3. I came across these wonderful bed leg covers to cover up the ugly plastic wheels and metal legs on a client's bedframe. http://www.bedboots.us/newsroom.php -- they really look great when you don't want a bedskirt.
Okay, I have a question. I have 4 sets of sheets and for the most part I am totally happy with all of them (1/2 from The Company Store and others were from the Department Store where we registered and all in excellent condition despite being 7 years old). However, they are all different (yellow stripes, dark green, rust/green paisley, tropical blue). I have a plain off-white duvet cover that I use most of the year and other times I have various blankets that I try to coordinate with the sheets. I find the off-white duvet cover boring; but haven't seen anything that I like AND that will go with my diverse set of sheets. I just use 4 bed pillows and the cases I have coordinate (but do not match) with the sheets. How do I pull everything together without investing in new sheets? Can I do it? Or should I find a duvet cover and use that as the basis of the bedroom and find sheets to go with the new cover. The walls (FYI) are a sea-foam blue with off-white trim. [My mom would say, if I would use a bed spread it wouldn't be an issue because the sheets would be covered up; but that isn't the case with the duvet alone].
Can you please fix the first link?
Any idea where to get oversized duvet covers? We bought an oversized duvet 90 x 98 which a little Googling told me was the standard oversize measurement. But now I can't find any covers that would fit! Do I need to just buy a larger one and get it tailored?
Yes, please fix the first link.
please fix the first link!
re: the broken link....did a search on the site, and came up with this link:
I find that 100% cotton percale sheets are best, no matter the thread count. They get softer with more washings, and don't pill like sateen sheets. They are more expensive (and getting harder to find) but worth it.
fixed the link. thanks everyone!
any source on the painting/print in the first picture?
writerboz -- we too have a 90x98 and it's been a little tricky. Bed Bath & Beyond sells that size in their Hotel Collection, if you're interested in solid colors. Nicole Miller also does duvets in 90x98.
We also found (through a lot of trial and error) that if you can find a F/Q that is *close* in size it will work. The measurements are approximate for duvets; especially if you have washed it it will measure as smaller. You'll most likely also be able to fit it into anything that's 92x96, or 88x96, which opens up a whole world of options for you. Try to aim for something that's within two inches of your duvet measurement on each side. Hope that helps!
Does anyone know the source for the knitted? blanket in the first picture?

Atlanta police say a 15-year-old suspected of stealing an East Point police car has been taken into custody after a standoff lasting several hours.According to East Point police, they noticed a car driving at a high rate of speed early Wednesday morning. Units pulled the car over and took the driver into custody after a scuffle. The 15-year-old was a passenger in the car and was put in the squad car, and at some point got into the front seat and drove off.They say they recovered the stolen police car at Chicamauga Avenue and Mozley Park in southwest Atlanta, and the teen barricaded himself in his mother's home on Gideons Drive. He reportedly refused to talk to police and his own family. "I spoke to one of our negotiators. They tried to make contact with them. They had a device – a phone – they can throw to someone to talk to him, but he didn't make any attempt to talk us to, so there was no conversation between our officers and the suspect once inside of the house," said Sgt. Greg Lyon of the Atlanta Police Department.Police say they used multiple rounds of tear gas to apprehend the teen.Authorities said that the teen is being a considered a suspect in several armed robberies in East Point, Fulton County, Coweta County and Atlanta.

Fujifilm X-M1 Review
Fujifilm X-M1 review - Performance
Since the arrival of the X-Pro1 and X100, Fujifilm has worked hard to improve the AF performance of its X-series cameras. The Fujifilm X-M1 delivers a solid performance, though not quite as snappy as some rivals, just taking that little bit longer to focus. It's marginal though and it doesn't detract from the shooting experience.
While the Fujifilm X-M1's lack of touchscreen functionality means you'll have to forego the luxury of being able to quickly tap the area of the screen where you want to focus, AF selection is still pretty quick and easy when in AF Area mode. Simply hit the X-M1's AF button at the rear, and you can then use the 4-way D-pad to toggle through a choose one of the 49 AF points on offer laid out in a 7x7 grid formation.
The actual AF area can be adjusted (the are 5 sizes to select from) via the control dial on the top of the camera depending on the precision desired, and while AF coverage is good, it doesn't reach quite to the edge of the frame.
Manual focusing
If you have the X-M1 in manual focusing mode, then you'll appreciate the Focus Peaking option. With the in-focus area displaying a white halo, it's possible to zoom in on the area you're focusing on by de-pressing the rear control dial. The amount of travel through the manual focus ring is just about right, delivering a decent balance between precision and speed.
It seems odd using an X-series camera without a viewfinder, but the X-M1's 3in screen delivers a well-balanced and contrasty display that's a match for rivals, while unlike some rivals the display fills the screen thanks to the display being the same aspect-ratio as the sensor.
The X-M1's screen tilt-angle functionality delivers genuine shooting benefits, especially when shooting at low angles as I found and for general shooting, the screen's more then adequate. That said, in bright sunlight viewing becomes problematic (as with all displays) and without the option to attach a viewfinder as desired you'll have to shield the screen from the sun as you shoot.
Lacking touchscreen
You could argue that the X-M1's absence of touchscreen functionality will put off new users – especially when compared to rivals that include this technology – but less experienced users shouldn't be deterred too much by it's omission. The body mounted controls offer quick access to core shooting modes, while the Function button can be tailored to your needs.
Then there's the X-M1's Quick menu and, I have to say it's one of the best around at the moment providing fuss-free access to a number of popular settings that can be adjusted with a quick flick of the control dial. If there is one slight annoyance it's this – when turning the control dial clockwise when changing ISO the sensitivity decreases, which seems a little counter intuitive.
The presence of a selection of Auto shooting modes means the X-M1 can be left to shoot with minimal to no intervention, while more experienced users will also appreciate the dual control dials on offer.

Campbell "sandbagging" again?
At the beginning of last season, Lincoln County head coach Larry Campbell downplayed how good he thought his club would be based on the fact that he didn't have an established quarterback. Denzel Gunby (now at Savannah State) won the job and led the Red Devils to a 12-1 season, before they fell to eventual state champ Savannah Christian, 22-14, in the quarterfinals.
Campbell could be at it again. Prior to last week's win over McCormick, S.C. (24-0), Campbell said of his team, currently ranked No. 1, "Rankings don't mean anything. Most of the people making those rankings have never seen us play anyway."
Campbell said he will be breaking in another new quarterback this season, Ben Turner, who missed all of last season with a torn ACL. But the junior appears to be ready, completing 18-of-25 passes for 247 yards and two TDs in last week's opener. And even though the Lincoln defense lost four starters off of last year's team, this year's version held McCormick to just 65 yards of total offense and just three first downs.
My Take: Tech's Johnson should visit Wilcox County, see Makail Grace
From time to time this season, I'll ask that you indulge me a few moments to impart a sentence or two of thought provoking commentary … or perhaps mindless drivel. So here's the first installment of "My Take".
My Take is that Georgia Tech head coach Paul Johnson should gas up "The Wreck" and head down to Wilcox County to sell his program on Patriot quarterback Makail Grace (6-3, 180), and possibly receiver Jonathan Howard (6-4, 180).
Currently, according to Wilcox head coach Mark Ledford, the recruiting talk is beginning to heat up around, Grace, who is also an all-state caliber safety and guard on the basketball team. Louisville, Ledford said, "really likes" both Grace and Howard.
Judging by Tech's inability to throw the ball effectively when it needs to (nice effort, but no cigar Monday at Virginia Tech), I think Johnson should consider beating Louisville's Charlie Strong to the punch and extend an offer to Grace and Howard.
In his first year at quarterback as a junior last season, Grace threw for over 2,700 yards, 35 touchdowns and just six interceptions. Howard, also a defensive back, hauled in 38 passes for 837 yards and eight touchdowns (he returned two of his three interceptions for touchdowns as well).
In last week's win over No. 4 Wilkinson County, Grace threw for 407 yards on 19-of-27 passing, with four touchdowns and ran for 75 yards on 18 carries, including the game-winning touchdown in the final minute.
Now, I'm sure the Tech recruiting brain trust has several competent quarterbacks on its big board. But if Grace is not on it, he should be. And if he is, a scholarship offer should be forthcoming. At least give the kid a chance to say he doesn't want to run the triple option.
That's "My Take." What say you?

You're doing a fine job Thomas, but the rankings might be easier to read if each team began its listing flush left, allowing a vertical read on the schools.

SCPS has two (2) D1 players that being recruited by Big 10 and ACC schools…Myrick and Reese… they run the same office as Tech, but they are now where to be found. However, you do see Wake, Duke, FSU and VTech around at practice…..interesting Paul Johnson…looks south

Thomas, I am sticking by my prediction on the Cllinch/ ELCA game. Clinch is way down this year! They beat a Mitchell County team last week that had several turnovers. Mitchell put up 20 points on Clinch. I thnk ELCA will score much more than that.

Every year, The Hunger Project-India awards the Sarojini Naidu Prize to journalists who have managed to record women's stories in a poignant, eloquent and informative way.
The thirty-eight articles selected this year focus on elected women who work tirelessly to bring education and health for all in their panchayats (village councils). These articles are a tribute to their never-ending struggle and strength, and a source of pride for the journalists who catch powerful and insightful glimpses into the lives and work of these elected women.
Thus Spoke the Press Volume 3 is testimony to the fact that the media and indeed, the country, is recognizing the work of these elected women more than ever before.

Minyak Angin Cap Kapak
Minyak Angin Cap Kapak is a Malaysian brand of traditional medicinal oil.
Makes me warm
It's the only thing that can make me warm everytime I feel cold. And for those who want to feel hot, just buy Minyak Angin Cap Kapak and you will feel really, really hot.
lovanto , Indonesia - 25 September 2012
Use no other
This talisman must be owned by people who like outdoor activities because many will use it. When you are cold, when you are bitten by insects, hands and feet, when you are tired, when your head is dizzy...use no other medication except this Minyak Angin Cap Kapak.
arifin, Indonesia - 28 October 2010
My loyal companion
Ask any Malaysian the best medicine for nausea, colds, headaches and stomach-aches and you'll instanty get the same reply: "Minyak Angin Cap Kapak". Literally translated as "Oil For Wind Axe Brand", the Minyak Angin Cap Kapak has become my loyal companion to relieve pain. It contains menthol crystals, camphor and eucalyptus oil, and the oil has a distinct aromatic smell that brings relief. It has become such a Loved brand that Malaysians living abroad still insist family and friends buy them a few boxes to stock up. Malaysians treat this oil as the 'national cure for any ailment', so it's no wonder that most Malaysians have one handy right in their bag!

The Palmetto Bay Village Council will consider applications from three law firms vying to work for the village.
One of the applicants is Figueredo & Boutsis, which currently provides legal service. The firm has represented the village since its 2002 incorporation.
"Realizing that the city attorney is not an employee, she is a contractor, and that there hasn't been a competitive bid process for the city attorney, it would be appropriate for us to issue a request for proposals, so we can evaluate other firms in a more objective, competitive format," Vice Mayor John DuBois told the Miami Herald on Thursday. DuBois led the initiative to direct village staff to issue the requests for proposals. "It's something we basically owe to the taxpayers."
DuBois' initiative to look into the village's legal services has a history that dates back to the days when he first stepped on the dais in late 2012. First, he tried to terminate Village Attorney Eve Boutsis. Part of his reasoning at the time was that the scope of her representation is not defined in her contract, and he also questioned her need to work so often with staff. While the rest of the council did not support his motion, a majority agreed to further discuss the village's legal services.
Then, at a meeting in April, the Village Council voted 3-2 to direct staff to solicit applications from legal firms. DuBois also put forth that motion. His reasoning: "We have a responsibility to get a competitive process."
Mayor Shelley Stanczyk and Councilwoman Joan Lindsay dissented.
"I am still holding that position," Stanczyk told the Herald on Thursday. "We've had a lot of legal business going on that our current attorney is an important asset to. … In the Palmer litigation, she provides so much continuity."
For the past five years, Palmetto Bay has been involved in court battles with Palmer Trinity School over expansion. Recently, the Village Council approved a settlement with the school. The village still has to go through a quasi-judicial hearing to finalize the conditions of the settlement.
Boutsis declined to comment on the competition.
The other two firms that have submitted proposals to the village are Gray Robinson and Alayon & Associates.
While Figueredo & Boutsis and Gray Robinson have both submitted proposals for their services at $185 per hour for work done by principal attorneys, Alayon & Associates has submitted a proposed rate of $165 per hour.
When choosing professional advisors such as lawyers, the village does not have to select the lowest bidder as it might with a construction contract.
A village selection committee comprised of two residents who are attorneys, the village manager, the village clerk and the Planning and Zoning director has looked at the firms' experience, references and presentations. Based on these qualifications, the selection committee will make a recommendation for one of the firms to the Village Council at a special meeting held at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Village Hall, 9705 E. Hibiscus St. The council will then decide on a firm.
"We are not obligated to choose anybody," DuBois said. "If we don't like what we see in the request-for-proposal responses, we can decide that they are inadequate. It's totally at our discretion."

Just shortly after Edward left in New Moon, Bella ends up pregnant with his daughter. She starts freaking out wondering how to tell Charlie when Jacob comes over; he already went through the transformation before Edward left. He freaks when Bella tells him and goes and tells Charlie about everything about the Cullens and the myths there in Forks just as Victoria is about attack Bella. Charlie lets himself get bitten instead of Bella shortly after Jake ran off. Bella sits with him for three days. After months have gone by, Bella gave birth to her daughter. Charlie has gained control of his thirst. Bella though everything was going perfectly fine until someone from her past, who was supposed to be dead comes back to Forks. That person is James. James ends up kidnapping for a few weeks, but over the last few months she has gotten some training with Charlie how to defend herself. She manages to chain him and she ends up pregnant again. As she gets home, she gets an invitation in the mail; she got invited to Edward's and Tanya's wedding. She's still human.

Bella smiled a bit and lightly laid her head on his shoulder and kept rubbing her stomach.
Alice smiled a bit."Bella, we need to get you back to the house. Which way is more comfortable for you?"
Edward-I kissed the top of her head, then looked up at Alice
Bella looked at Alice then at Carlisle."The car was a bit more comfortable then the running thing."
Katie walked into the clearing where everyone was."Everything alright?" She spotted the Cullens and waved a bit.
Edward-I smiled, "Yeah that's true." I looked at Katie, "Yeah everything is fine."
Jasper-"Were just about to bring Bella back home."
Katie smiled and nodded."I know. I was just doing that before she needed to get out. She looks a lot more comfortable now."
Bella giggled a bit and nodded."You have no idea."
Edward-"Well that's good that your comfortable. I wouldn't want you or the baby to be uncomfortable."
Jasper-"Well, we should get going."
Edward-"Yeah, Jasper's right."
Bella nodded."I've been mostly uncomfortable the last 3 weeks." She frowned and used Edward to help stand up. She felt Katie's hand on her back and looked over at her.
Edward-"Come on let's take you to the car." I walked her to the car and helped her in
Bella nodded and smiled at him taking his hand.
Edward-I smiled, and got in after her. I helped her put her seat belt on then sat back down next to her, putting mine on. "Ready to go home?"
Bella nodded."I've been ready to be home the moment I've left."
Edward-"Good." I smiled and we drove off to the house

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - A Trent woman is charged with aggravated assault after she allegedly raised a pistol to the face of a female victim at a Sioux Falls house party last weekend.
Sargeant Josh Disburg says 21-year-old Chastity Sharp and the victim, a 22-year-old woman from Dell Rapids, got into a fight over drinking and driving.
Disburg says Sharp allegedly produced a handgun and the women began fighting. He says the victim managed to briefly get the gun away from Sharp but, during the scuffle, Sharp got it back and then grabbed the victim by the throat.
He says the women separated and Sharp got into a car driven by 20-year-old Christopher Furness of Colton. A MInnehaha County Sheriff's Deputy stopped Furness on the Renner exit on I-29 and arrested him for driving while intoxicated.
Disburg says Sharp was taken to the jail and also charged with possession of a firearm while intoxicated.

A 21-count indictment has been handed up in U.S. District Court against a Valley father and son accused of defrauding more than a quarter-million dollars from investors, many of them elderly.
The indictment alleges that beginning in October 2009, Larry Heartburg, 66, of Paradise Valley, and Rolf Heartburg, 40, of Phoenix, induced victims to invest in the Phoenix Real Estate Opportunity Fund.
Investors were told the "short-term bridge loans" would accrue interest and mature by the end of 2011, according to the indictment.
In reality, all money went toward finder's fees, legal expenses and the Heartburg's personal expenses, the grand jury said.
Larry Heartburg was the lead manager of the fund and Rolf Heartburg was a self-described financial planner and a sales rep for the fund.
Rolf Heartburg's sales presentation downplayed the risk, the indictment alleges.
From Oct. 30, 2009 through Sept. 14, 2012, the fund received $257,270 from investors.
The indictment alleges the Heartburgs enticed investors in to buying additional "units" at a discounted rate.
"Over time, (the pair) deceived victims into believing they 'units' they had purportedly purchased were valuable. In fact, the 'units' were worthless because the promised debt instruments were never purchased and the Heartburgs had de[depleted the investors' money on personal expenses," the indictment stated.

In this play, Orestes receives orders from Apollo via the Oracle that he must kill his mother, Clytemnestra.
This sequel to The Libation Bearers opens at Delphi, where Orestes is taking refuge from some vengeful Furies, angry over his mother's death.
The Oracle of Delphi proves to be all too right when she says that Oedipus is destined to sleep with his mother and kill his father. (Something tells us that the Pythia's prophecies wouldn't be too popular in fortune cookies.)
In this final Oedipus play, it's revealed that the Oracle also told Oedipus that he would die in a place sacred to the Furies. (Yup, she was totally right again.)
Check out another version of Orestes' Oracle-ordered execution of his own mother.
Set at Delphi, this play portrays a temple boy named Ion who finds out that Apollo is his long lost father.
Aaaaaand here's yet another version of Orestes' famous Oracle-ordered matricide. (Sometimes we wonder if the Oracle should've kept her big mouth shut.)
The big deal Roman playwright puts his spin on the Oedipus story, complete with the Oracle's prediction.
The Oracle pops up in tons of stories in this book of mythological poems. (Don't miss the tale of how Apollo conquered the Python and made it his own.)
The spirit of the Oracle is trapped in a corpse by Hades in this first Percy Jackson novel.
The Oracle's spirit is finally able to pass on to its new host, Rachel Elizabeth Dare, in this Percy Jackson adventure.

NEW YORK (AP) — Police say a livery cab has hit and killed a bicyclist in East Harlem, and the cab driver has been arrested.
The crash happened shortly after 5 a.m. Monday at Park Avenue and East 108th Street. The New York Police Department says 25-year-old Jerrison Garcia and the cab were both heading south on Park Avenue when the cab made a left turn and hit Garcia.
He was dead on arrival at a hospital. No one else was injured.
Police say cabbie Nojeem Odunfa's license had been suspended, and he was arrested on unlicensed-driving charges.
It's not immediately clear whether the 65-year-old driver has a lawyer. No phone number for his Bronx home could immediately be found.

Coming off Back-to-Back Podium Finishes During Detroit Belle Isle Doubleheader, Kia is Just Two Points Shy of Manufacturer Championship Lead
- Mark Wilkins in the No. 38 B.R.A.K.E.S. Optima turbo sits second in Driver Championship points after two top-five finishes in Detroit
- Nic Jonsson in the No. 36 DonorsChoose.org Optima turbo resides fourth in Driver Championship following third-place result in round five
IRVINE, Calif., June 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Kia Racing's No. 36 DonorsChoose.org and No. 38 B.R.A.K.E.S. Optima turbos make their competition debut this weekend at Road America in scenic Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. Kia Racing arrives in dairy country having scored two more podium finishes during rounds five and six of the Pirelli World Challenge (PWC) on Detroit Belle Isle. With a total of five podium appearances this season – including two race wins – Kia trails Manufacturer Championship leader Ford by just two points. Meanwhile, Kia Racing pilots Mark Wilkins and Nic Jonsson, are second and fourth, respectively, in the Grand Touring Sport (GTS) Driver points.
"Scoring back-to-back podium finishes in Detroit continues a string of solid results for our team, and proves the Optima has the performance and reliability to compete wheel-to-wheel with the likes of Porsche Cayman, Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro," said Michael Sprague, executive vice president of sales and marketing, Kia Motors America (KMA). "Our goal remains the same: Win the Manufacturer Championship. We look forward to getting on-track at Road America where we have enjoyed success in the past."
Road America is a 4.048-mile permanent road course with long straights that reward high horsepower and torturous braking zones that abuse pads and rotors and challenge vehicle durability. Beating the V8-powered cars down the straights will be tough, but the turbocharged four-cylinder engines found in the Optimas are more than capable of keeping pace with the finest Detroit muscle.
"The Optima has the power to run with the V8s on the straightaways, and we think we'll be in good shape to out-brake our competition deep in the corners," said Jonsson, driver of the No. 36 DonorsChoose.org Optima turbo, who just returned from his stint driving a Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. "We did a lot of off-season testing to dial in the handling of the Optima. We've seen that pay off with wins at Long Beach (California) and Barber Motorsports Park earlier in the year, and I think we should be strong at Road America too."
Although the Pirelli World Challenge (PWC) Optimas have never turned a wheel at Road America, Kia Racing has fond memories of the track. In 2011, Jonsson co-piloted a Kia Forte Koup to victory in the Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge (CTSSC) Street Tuner (ST) class, the second win of that season that would culminate with Team and Driver Championships for Kia Racing and partner Kinetic Motorsports.
A new generation Kia Forte Koup will also make a Road America debut this weekend, as Kinetic Motorsports' privateer entry in the Touring Car A (TC-A) class will be piloted by series rookie Jason Wolfe. Wolfe has already scored two TC-A wins this season behind the wheel of the No. 36 Richard Wolfe Trucking Kinetic Motorsports Forte Koup, and Kia currently leads the TC-A Manufacturer Championship.
Both GTS and TC-A race rounds seven and eight of the PWC at Road America on Friday, June 20 and Saturday, June 21. Televised coverage of GTS rounds seven and eight will air on the NBC Sports Network on Friday, July 4 at 6:30 p.m. ET. Race fans can watch live coverage of all four races online at www.world-challengetv.com and catch the latest news and updates from the Kia Racing Facebook page at www.facebook.com/kiaracing and follow the team on Twitter: @KiaRacing.

Book Club Title for March
Published on Thursday, February 14, 2013 - 2:11pm
Called the Great Migration by historians, the years 1915-1970 witnessed the largest movement of people in the history of the United States, greater than the Gold Rush of the 1850s or the Dust Bowl of the 1930s. Fed up with their circumstances in a South that offered little chance at a decent life, black Americans migrated north and west to seek out a better life.
Focusing on the story of three migrants in The Warmth of Other Suns, Isabel Wilkerson also incorporates interviews she conducted with hundreds of people, and information she gained from access to countless official records. The result is a masterful and engrossing study of this little acknowledged yet influential period in American history. The Warmth of Other Suns is the winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction, and numerous other honors.
Join us Wednesday, March 13 in the meeting room at 7 p.m. for a lively discussion of this truly epic, wonderful read. For more information about the book club, please contact Ana Elisa de Campos Salles at email@example.com or call 202-671-3122.

Coming back to Sir Richard Branson's point of view, delegation is one of the most important traits of a leader. What he has always done is find people who are better than him at a task and then he steps out of their way. Contrary to other leaders, he doesn't micromanage and instead he focuses on the bigger picture. The result is the person whom everyone identifies as an inspirational leader as he bashes into the boardroom and says, "We will offer space-travel to everyone!".

Biography of an Unknown Graffiti Artist
Published on Monday, February 25, 2013 - 10:25am
When Wall and Piece came out a few years ago, I did not know much about the graffiti artist Banksy, but I was intrigued. His work seemed both political and whimsical, witty and fun to look at. More recently, his movie Exit Through the Gift Shop opened my eyes to the world of urban graffiti artists and the lengths that they go to to create their pieces. Many who saw the movie may agree with me that they suspected that the whole movie may itself have been a hoax.
Now comes a new biography Banksy: The Man Behind the Wall. Though I have not yet read it, the New York Times review indicates that it gives more details to Banksy's past without actually revealing who he is. Sounds like a fun, if frustrating read. Come take a look at the book in Information Services (room 209) at MLK.
P.S. Here in D.C., we have some interesting graffiti artists at work. Diabetik's work always makes me chuckle: half-eaten Peeps and candy corn traffic cones!

Shocks and Vintage Frocks in the Fashion Guru's New Photo-Film Project
"I'm very into transformation," explains stylist and artist Masha Orlov of her latest collaborative project, a stop-motion film about a party gone awry incorporating over 2000 still images, produced with makeup artist Andrea Helgadottir and photographer Silja Magg. Orlov herself stars in the photo-series/film alongside Victor de Souza muse Michelle Harper and India Menuez, who Orlov describes as "one of the coolest 17-year-olds around." Orlov, who has styled for publications including Self-Service, Purple, Jalouse and V, tapped the wardrobes of her fashionable cohorts (as well as her own closet) for the decadent costumes, which incorporate vintage designs from Mara Hoffman, threeASFOUR and Jil Sander. The project was originally conceived as an art film and photo story for the second issue of TIWIMUTA, a super-luxurious annual magazine masterminded by maverick fashion designer and Marc Jacobs consultant Andre Walker. But Ratatat's Mike Stroud (Helgadottir's husband) liked the film so much that he decided to set his band's song "Imperials" (from 2008's LP3) to a simplified version of the film, which will be released soon. Masha Orlov and Andre Walker discuss the printed page and obsessive personalities here.

This dynamic power management enables the GPU to automatically adjust power between low, medium and high states for a tremendous power efficiency advantage. For example, when receiving and composing emails little demand is on the GPU and it runs in a low state, whereas when gaming, there is high demand on the graphics engine and the GPU runs in a high state.Since the GPU consumes less power it also produces less heat ultimately contributing to reduced system temperatures and fan noise delivering consistent performance levels for a seamless user experience.

Joe Kickass
Joe Kickass aka Captain Crimefighter
Emcee/Producer/Graphic Artist
Height: 6,3 ft
Weight: 210 lbs
Nationality: Dutch
Frustrated by most of today's hiphop, Joe drops the accessories and takes it back to basics. Brought up by listening to jazz, Joe starts rhyming and producing at a young age. Inspired by the oldskool he constantly chops up dusty records to create headnoddin' beats. Improvising with the means he has, Joe uses an umbrella and bed covers for a vocal booth and a bunch of shoeboxes for rhymebooks. His ever growing stack of lyrics portrays the world he lives in, in a skillful and often witty manner. When Joe's hand isn't holding a pen, it's holding a pencil. Drawing on any relatively flat surface, his illustration skills develope at the same rate as his beats and rhymes.
He drops a demo tape that gets noticed by Amsterdam based producer team Killing Skills. They start making tracks together to create a full length album for Joe. As they record more tracks, making Joe's music come alive, something remarkably similar happens to his drawings. How it came to be is not exactely known but, tired of the flat life, three of his creations decide to get physical and add an extra dimension to themselves.
Let me introduce:
Baritone aka The Velvet Bulldozer
height: 6,11 ft
Weight: 429 lbs
Nationality: unknown, probably Swedish or something
The brawn of the group, a friendly giant who makes sure everything remains raw. Allthough he may look like all muscles half of his weight is actually made up by his oddly shaped brain. In this sense one could say he's also the brains of the operation. Baritone is always cheerful and happy unless somebody gives him reasons not to be, he's a beast after all.
He's a well respected jazz fan with a bigger and more secret catalog then Victoria herself. He spends most of his time diggin' in the basements of moldy old record stores to find quirky and long forgotten pressings. Baritone has vowed never to leave the side of his creator and will often be seen in the studio sharing his knowledge on the art of sampling.
Ralph aka Bucks Funny
Height: 6,5 ft
Weight: 240 lbs
Nationality: He claims Jamaican, but sources have led to believe that this is untrue
Ralph hates carrots but loves the green. He's the self proclaimed pimp of the outfit. Always making sure he himself and everything around him looks good. Always chasing the ladies, he holds the world record in most served against restraining orders. He claims to have a vast harem of honey-bunnies at his disposal back home.. This, however, has never been verified. Because of his obvious superior hearing abilities, Ralph will often come up with ways to make tracks sound better.
He has a tough-guy attitude but you can tell by his insecurities that he is actually a lovable creature.
To calm his nerves he smokes and drinks a lot, often bringing him in an intoxicated state well before everyone else. His fluffy pink coat covers his many scars from drunken tomfoolery and small bar fights. Two years ago he enrolled in a famous rehab clinic but was kicked out when they caught him brewing and selling moonshine to the other patients.
Height: Variable
Weight: not applicable
Nationality: unknown (believed to have derived from ancient spirits thousands of years ago)
Not a lot is known about Two-D. His appearance is similar to that of a ghost. His transition into the three dimensional world has been troublesome to say the least. Whatever went wrong in this process also gave him the power of shape shifting. He can be small enough to fit in your Spiderman lunch box, but also so humongous that he barely fits in an arena.
Because Two-D lacks the ability to communicate verbally, he often seeps into the arrange and shifts kicks and snares around to convey his message. Therefore, you never really see him but he is always there. While you can always rely on his next level skills as a producer, his behavior and mood is as unpredictable as the memory of an old MPC. It is believed that he either doesn't need sleep or has decided to go on a self-destructive nonstop working rampage out of frustration. He is easily the hardest working creature in showbizz.

When a product is titled Egyptian Cotten 650 thread count you don't expect it to be 40% polyester and 600 thread count. I'm sure it's fine, it's just not what I expected. Title should be cotton blend so everyone is clear on what they are buying. I could have found better at a department store for the same price.
I ordered these and another set of pillowcases from Overstock at the same time. I needed new ones that would accommodate my new thicker pillows, so picked because they had a stated width of 21 in. The other pair are great, but these are barely 20 in. and I had to wrestle my pillows into them. Also disappointed that the collor is much darker than indicated in picture.
When these arrived they actually were 650 thread count, so I just knew they would be soft and comfortable. Wrong. They are not at all soft and I washed in cold water and ironed them to increase the comfort, with no improvement. The package they arrived in and the interior label, state that they are 100 % Egyptian cotton, 650 thread count, but the quality of workmanship is not great. I would not order these again, even though the price is excellent.
For years I have purchased pricey "luxury" sheets from a linen warehouse store, but they can't compare to these. Soft as can be, and these really don't wrinkle much. Best of all, they truly DO fit an extra-deep mattress that is topped with a 3-inch memory foam--no more struggling with that fitted sheet! Not only are these better than what I had been using--they're also cheaper! An excellent value.
love these pillow cases.the color is rich and they do not wrinkle badly when dried
I liked the pillowcases in every respect , comfort, color, ability to clean and sleep on.
These pillowcases are perfect for extras. I am having mine monogrammed.
we liked our first order of sheets/pillowcases and ordered more
These sheets are so soft and luxurious and are such a great value for the price. In fact, I loved them so much that I bought two additional sets (one as a gift). They fit the bed perfectly and when I crawl into bed, they feel like a Million dollars. And, the design is subtle but stunning and the color (sage green) is quite attractive. I am so very happy with the quality and the price.
This set is the finest quality. They fit large king size pillows. This set seems to be the kind of product that will last a very long time.
