eBay's Overpriced Collectibles, Yo
Are they high?
I started checking out eBay video game collectibles recently, and, man, are these things overpriced. I can almost understand that the frenzy surrounding MJ made someone believe they could get a $2,000 for the middling but fun Moonwalker game. More reasonable was a Tim-Schaefer-signed copy of Grim Fandango for around 500 clams.
How about 5,000 for a Sega watch? Selling points: One of a kind rarity! Made in China.
Is this Atari console worth four grand? Selling points: OldSchool! Includes Pac-Man(hot).
Makes me wanna put my sealed copy of Spyro The Dragon up and price it at grand.
Is anyone dumb enough to pay inflated prices for this stuff? I hope not. I mean, maybe for the holidays, people'll get all hot and bothered and pay big bucks for stuff that's not worth the price. But in the middle of summer in a deep recession?
Dream on. Ain't gonna happen.
BTW: Anyone wanna buy a Ralph Baer-signed Odyssey? Just joking.

A zombie apocalypse: Is it medically possible? Scenarios depicting large-scale attacks of the undead have been playing out on the big screen for years.
And this fall, they'll hit classrooms too.
Students around the country can now immerse themselves in "zombie pandemics" in order to learn about how diseases spread and affect the body. It's all part of the new STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) Behind Hollywood Program, which teachers and students can download for free online to use at home or in the classroom.
The series was created by Texas Instruments (TI) and The Science & Entertainment Exchange, a program of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), and seeks to inspire student's interest in math and science careers. The STEM program will include installments on everything from forensics to zombies and superheroes.

Core Competencies
The public health profession recently identified eight competencies from the Council on Linkages between Academia and Public Health Practice that leaders should possess to be effective. These competencies serve as guidelines for developing curricula and course content and evaluating education and training.
The public health competency categories are:
- Analytic and assessment skills
- Policy development and program planning skills
- Communication skills
- Cultural competency skills
- Community dimensions of practice skills
- Basic public health sciences skills
- Financial planning and management skills
- Leadership and systems thinking skills
The master of public health program at DMU has adopted these competencies to help students develop along professional guidelines. You will complete a skills assessment at the time of application and complete another assessment at the end of the program. Through these pre- and post-program assessments, you will measure where you have advanced your skills. You will also have a useful tool to create a resume highlighting your specific strengths for current or future employers.

Nice jacket. Very satisfied with this purchase.
When I received my order, the jacket had a broken snap on the sleeve. I was disappointed, but like I told Judy, in returns, if that is the worse thing to happen to me that day, then I was blessed. I love the jacket and anxiously await its replacement.

NORFOLK, Va. - Three men who hauled drugs to Hampton Roads in tractor trailers are facing long prison terms.
The Virginian-Pilot ( http://bit.ly/zQGVZI) reports that they distributed thousands of pounds of marijuana and dozens of kilograms of cocaine.
Tuesday, 45-year-old David A. Wheeler of Houston was sentenced in federal court in Norfolk to 21 years and eight months in prison. One day earlier, a 49-year-old accomplice, Samuel Lloyd of Stone Mountain, Ga., was sentenced to 30 years in prison.
Another co-conspirator, 49-year-old Earl R. Fuller Jr. of Virginia Beach, has already been sentenced to life in prison. He received a mandatory life term primarily because of his criminal record.
Authorities said the trio and others involved used trucks with hidden compartments to bring the drugs here from Texas and Atlanta between 2004 and 2010.

If Google users are ever in China, they may need to draw a few Chinese characters to get a direct translation on their computers. While the feature has been on Android for a year, it's now finally available for the desktop on the Google Translate homepage.
The new feature is considered a necessity in countries or regions where the Latin alphabet isn't used, such as China or Japan, according to Xiangye Xiao, a Google product Manager on the official Google Translate blog. From the post:
Handwriting input lets you translate a written expression, even if you don't know how to type the characters. For example, suppose you see the Chinese expression "饺子" and want to know its meaning in English, but have no idea how to type these characters. Using the new handwriting input tool, you can simply draw these characters on your screen and instantly see the translation.

A Conversation With
A Conversation with...Dr. Richard Troiano
Dr. Richard Troiano is an epidemiologist in the Risk Factor Monitoring and Methods Branch of NCI's Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS). In 2006, he was detailed to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion to help develop the first-ever federal Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, which were released last fall.
What are the goals of the Guidelines?
The Physical Activity Guidelines are designed to provide information and guidance on the types and amounts of physical activity that provide substantial health benefits for Americans aged 6 years and older. The main idea behind the Guidelines is that regular physical activity can produce long-term health benefits.
Being physically active is one of the most important steps Americans can take to improve their health. The Guidelines note that some activity is better than none, and more activity is even better. Both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities are beneficial. Many health benefits occur with at least 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week or the equivalent 1 hour and 15 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes, and preferably spread throughout the week. To gain additional and more extensive health benefits, adults can increase their aerobic physical activity to 5 hours a week of moderate-intensity or 2 hours and 30 minutes a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity or an equivalent combination of moderate- and vigorous-intensity activity. Adults should do muscle-strengthening activities on at least 2 days a week.
What are their implications for cancer control?
The HHS Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee examined both cancer prevention and benefits for cancer survivors as outcomes related to physical activity. Physical activity was clearly shown to reduce the risk of cancers of the colon and breast, and it may also reduce the risk of cancers of the endometrium and lung.
It appears that a relatively large amount of physical activity is required to see a reduction in cancer risk—about 3.5 to 7 hours per week. This is toward the upper end of the recommended range for health benefits in the Guidelines. However, cancer survivors seem to have noticeably improved fitness and quality of life even with amounts of physical activity at the low end of the recommended range. Just getting a 30-minute walk three times a week may provide benefits.
What is NCI's research agenda for examining the link between physical activity and reduced cancer risk?
NCI supports a broad variety of research related to physical activity and cancer. One example is the Health, Eating, Activity, and Lifestyle (HEAL) Study that examines relationships among physical activity, biomarkers, and breast cancer prognostic factors, as well as intermediate outcomes and recurrence in women with early stage breast cancer.
NCI is also stimulating novel research in the assessment of physical activity. Through the Improving Diet and Physical Activity Assessment Program Announcements and the Exposure Biology Program of the Genes, Environment and Health Initiative, grants have been awarded to develop and validate new objective measures of physical activity that use motion sensors, heart rate monitors, and geographic location sensors. These devices will enhance our understanding of the relationship between physical activity and health.

"[I am] going to put a complaint in with the justice department for the Americans with Disabilities Act," said disabled veteran Gary Houle, who is continuing to move forward in his dispute with the Pulaski Club.
Houle told CBS 3 that he was thrown out of the club on Thanksgiving night.
According to Houle, he was told his service dog, Princess, was not properly identified, even though he produced proper identification.
In a letter dated Dec. 26, a spokesperson for the club, Mike Albano, addressed the issues with Easthampton's mayor.
In the letter, Albano, who is currently the governor's councilor for the eighth district and former mayor of Springfield, said Houle's dog is registered as an Emotional Support Animal (ESA), which has different regulations.
Houle said that while Princess does help with his post traumatic stress disorder, she is a certified service dog.
"The certification that they should recognize is the animal certification patch, which is for service animal registry," said Houle, as he pointed to the patch on Princess' vest.
Houle then produced the documentation and identification card supporting his claims, stating Princess became certified as of Nov. 1 of this year.
Houle said it took more than six months, partially with another trainer, to get Princess ready.
"Now if I was blind, obviously, you would have to spend thousands of dollars and have someone train it," Houle stated. "But for hearing alert, for my traumatic brain injury, nerve damage and hearing loss, she's right there on spot with that."
CBS 3 reached out to Albano for an interview, but he was unavailable on Saturday.
As Albano noted in the letter, ESA animals are allowed on airplanes and qualify for no-pet housing, but they are not considered a working service dog under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Houle believes his documentation proves Princess is a service dog.

Internet addiction in the classroom: A distraction or learning aid?
Thursday, October 11th, 1-2:15pm (CANCELLED)
The ubiquitous nature of smartphones, tablets, and their ilk in the hands of students have taken internet connectivity to a new level. While access to information may be seen as enhancing learning, access to continuing conversations with friends and surfing shopping/entertainment sites may be distractions. How should faculty respond to this situation? How to set behavioral norms and ensure adherence? You are invited to share your experience and your solutions in a conversation to enhance student and faculty classroom experience.

Betancourt Nutrition - Englutarade Reinforcer Fruit Punch - 540 Grams (1.20 lbs)
Betancourt Englutarade Reinforcer is the world's first "anaplerotic" muscle drink mix! Its comprehensive army of nutrients penetrates deep inside your tired muscle cells to promote the function of key energy-yielding pathways such as the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Delicious and refreshing, Englutarade can be used at any time of day to support immediate and long-term enhancement of:
Proprietary Glutamine Blend: The chief driver of Englutarade is a 5000-mg proprietary blend containing glutamine, glutamine peptides and N-acetyl-glutamine (a liquid-stable form of glutamine.) Glutamine is one of the most versatile amino acids in the body. Studies show that it stimulates muscle protein and glycogen synthesis, growth hormone secretion, immune system function and more. Glutamine also helps "spare" branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), which makes Englutarade ideal for stacking with Chewies BCAA or any other Betancourt product containing BCAA.
Electrolytes: Many popular glutamine formulas contain no electrolytes. Englutarade contains them in amounts equivalent to a leading sports drink.
Vitamin C: Each serving of Englutarade provides 500 mg of vitamin C, equivalent to 833% the daily value of this potent antioxidant.
Anti-Fatigue Mitchondria Support Complex: Setting Englutarade further apart from other glutamine products is a proprietary blend of botanicals including Sophora japonica, Gingkgo biloba, Licorice and Panax Ginseng. Sophora has been shown to prevent weight gain in animals fed high-fat diets. Both it and Licorce also display anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Gingkgo is used to support circulation. Acting as an adaptogen, Panax Ginseng helps the body adapt to stress.
Zero sugar, only 1 g of carbs: Englutarade is suitable for any type of diet –low- or high-carb. It contains no sugar and barely 1 gram of total carbohydrate.
When to Take Englutarade Englutarade can be taken any time of day. However, you'll notice its benefits most when your blood glucose or glycogen levels are lower. As such, some of the best times to take it are:
When following a low-carbohydrate diet.
Why Supplements?Visit any highly-populated cosmopolitan city in the world. Walk down the busiest streets. You name the city, chances are you won't see many bodies flexing large, polished muscles. Exceptionally-built physiques are rare --perhaps 1 in 100,000.
Normal Begets NormalThe rarity of muscular bodies is easy to explain: It's not easy building muscle. To make your muscles bigger you must push them far beyond the normal physiological call of duty. Resistance exercise, the mainstay of bodybuilding training, seems to do the trick. After pushing your muscles "beyond normal" in the gym, however, you need to support them nutritionally to the same degree. It's here that dietary supplements can make your life much easier and more enjoyable.
Why Betancourt Nutrition?Long overdue is an intelligently rebellious company capable of saving the bodybuilding community from atrophy, not only of muscle but of mind. The goal of Betancourt Nutrition is to provide the hardcore bodybuilding nonconformist with an alternative to the homogenized sameness of the suburban supplement scenery by developing "addictively sweet" and "immediately anabolic" formulas capable of reliably re-charging the senses.
Training, recovering, building, improving –Betancourt Nutrition has broken out of the soulless, tasteless mold of contemporary supplement formulas and made the achievement of these goals intensely real and flavorful. Setting Betancourt Nutrition further apart from the "herd" is the fact that it has its own manufacturing laboratory where its team of expert nutritional architects formulates, tests and certifies every supplement with the attention to detail, passion and dogged perseverance of makers of fine wine.
Betancourt Nutrition was founded by Jorge Betancourt in 2002 in Miami. Jorge is a husband, father and former National Physique Committee (NPC) bodybuilding champion athlete and media spokesperson with over 20 years of experience and a reputation for credibility.
About Jorge BetancourtIn the 1990s a young athletic prodigy from Miami by the name of Jorge "Chic" Betancourt emerged on the competitive bodybuilding scene. His long, full muscles, remarkable symmetry and sharp definition had never before been seen in someone so young.
Upon winning the Teenage USAs in 1989 and the Teenage Nationals in 1990, Jorge quickly became as popular a media figure as top professional bodybuilders vying for the Mr. Olympia title. He received hundreds of letters from fans around the world every week and made repeat appearances on ESPN's bodybuilding programs in addition to starring in the best-selling video Teen Wonderboy. In 1991, Jorge became the first and only teenager to win the Southern States, a prestigious regional bodybuilding competition. At 5'5" and 165 pounds, he handily defeated men as much as fifteen years older and seventy pounds heavier, proving that quality can supersede quantity. There was talk of him becoming one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time.
Then, just as suddenly as Jorge had appeared on the scene, he vanished from it. Though most young men in his position would have blindly pursued more titles and trophies, Jorge shrewdly decided to make his mark on the business side of the bodybuilding industry. He built a successful personal training facility in exclusive Coral Gables where he employed a fully certified staff of personal trainers catering to south Florida's elite. In 2001 he decided that that he wanted to make a positive impact on the bodybuilding community by getting into the business of formulating dietary supplements for this unique breed of athlete.
Jorge relates: "I knew that with the knowledge and experience I had accumulated over the years, I could formulate an entirely unique line of supplements that would simplify and excite the serious bodybuilding athlete's life and provide him or her with results that can be seen and felt immediately. I'm known for having values that are consistent with my actions. I had no doubt that with the right people and technologies behind me I could build supplements with a reputation for the same."

Wow, that is beautiful!
So... let's just say my HPT this morning was in fact a BFN. If I go in for a beta on Friday and it's positive, that means it is likely to be really low again right? Last time that happened, they told me to prepare for a miscarriage. DS turned out fine, but now after having just gone through a miscarriage, I think I will be even more stressed out than ever. Friday needs to get here ASAP so I can quit over-analyzing everything!
gator i agree, friday needs to get here ASAP!!
Cait[24] & Gene-Paul[28] Dx with PCOS & Left Tube Blocked Dec. '12

Congrats Crazy Cookie!
Rachel I completely understand what it is like to have crazy rediculous cycles! I am so thankful to be going to a RE now so I don't have to wonder what is going on!
Gator I am so hopeful that your number just isnt high enough yet for a HPT... your story of your sun is giving me hope right now!
Kelly I hope you get good results today and wish for you that your experience with the new office gets better!
So for me today I took another dollar general test and it looks about like it did yesterday which bummed me out because I was expecting and hoping it would be significantly darker! I went to the RE and had my second beta but am not feeling very optimistic that things are going as they should! On my way home I picked up more FRER and a pack of digitals! I forgot that I had a large coffee on my way home... The digital was negative and the FRER may have been lighter than Sundays! Now my only hope is that I diluted the results with the coffee!!! but... my rationale side says its just not sticking! I should know by the end of the day! Gonna take forever
Thank you ladies!!
Rachel try not to feel too down, even if you've only just ovulated you could have caught your eggy if you BD'd! you're not out until AF comes sweetie
Fingers crossed that Friday comes quickly for you ladies.
I hope everything is ok for you Cookie and that you just diluted with the coffee!!
Jen and Cait... (((big big hugs)))...praying the next two days go by fast !!!
Rachel ...have you tested again recently with either hpt or opk?
Cookie...thinking of you and praying for a really good number! I have a referral to see an RE from my cnm but haven't made the appt yet. I think I'll post separately but I have questions about it .
Back from the lab...they said my dr will have the results in the morning so come lunch if I haven't heard from them I'm going to be ringing their phone off the hook all afternoon, lol
I had positive OPK's again yesterday and the one I took a while I ago was super dark too. I have never had such dark positives before and 3 days in a row! BFN's on PG tests and I am done taking those for now. We DTD yesterday afternoon and they day before so if this is O hopefully we are catching it. I kind of feel done with making effort this cycle.
I'm with everyone wishing Friday would hurry up. I tend to have LP on the longer side, close to 16 days so I get anxious deciding on whether to test or wait. I reallllly don't like seeing BFN's so I'm hoping that I just won't see my temp drop and then I'll know it's probably a good idea to test. But really that day is Sunday---sooo long.
Hugs to everyone whether their news was good or bad. I just keep hoping we'll all get what we're looking for!
I am so sorry Cookie
KayDub when are you testing?
Ok so I went to my appointment and it went well My dr took a urine sample to test for blood sugar levels and to confirm I actually am pregnant, and some blood to test for hcg. She weighed me, and asked a lot about mine and DH's family history. Then we discussed my menstrual cycles and she told me my due date, Wednesday November 27th! I'm three weeks pregnant today! We briefly discussed my symptoms and she mentioned briefly a multiple pregnancy since they're so strong But she said not to worry too much haha. She told me what food to avoid and gave me about 50 million leaflets and also prescribed folic acid to me. She also scheduled my next appointment for Friday 5th of April. I'm also booked in for an ultrasound that day!! Then she told me that she would ring me either later today or tomorrow with my hcg levels... Me and DH went to eat then and she called back while we were eating. My hcg level is 54 and I need to go back on Friday to have blood drawn again at 9am. So everything went well, except for the multiples comment panicking me a little... Hoping everything stays ok for the next nine months!
Woohoooo crazycookie !!! That's a fantastic number! Praying for doubles or more on Friday !! Grow baby grow !
Congrats on a great appointment!! I'm so happy for you! Your numbers will double by Friday! I can feel it! You better let us know right away! :sticky vibes:
I'm watching American Idol and just squalled my eyes out, while the guy sung Temporary Home. I am so emotional lately. GAH
Thank you ladies and I'll update you all as soon as I can hehe!! I still can't edit my profile, I keep getting "page not found" so can't make one of those things at the bottom of your signatures I think they're called tickers?
Anyway good luck Kay, I'm rooting for you!!!
Thanks! I'll be sure to update whenever I do test! Please let us know about your appointment!
I haven't been able to update my signature since joining either! It sucks!
This long LP business is messing with me a little. I won't test until 16 dpo (this month I'm trying to force myself to wait until 18) because the BFN is just so demoralizing.
I have a feeling this isn't my month. I've had increasing dampness in my undies last two days and yesterday some vag soreness that you get during AF, but I'm not due for her until Sunday at the earliest. I've heard that kind of soreness is just an indication of impending period. So...we'll see but I don't think this is going to end in a BFP.
I'm sorry Geneari! I know it's hard to keep positive, but remember you're not out until AF comes! Many times the symptoms for the 2 are so similar! No one knows your body like you do, but I just hate to see you so down before you're officially out!!
From pregnancy.about.com:
The most common reason to have pain that feels like cramping is actually your uterus growing. This is normal pain and should be expected in a healthy pregnancy. You may also feel "full" or "heavy" in the area of your uterus. It's not uncommon to hear that in early pregnancy women describe feeling like they were about to start their period "any minute."
That's the feeling I'm having like, even though it's days early I feel like AF is here right now. I keep thinking the dampness in my undies is AF--but I *know* it's not.
Just a few more days and this will all be sorted out one way or another, but hopefully BFP!!
I can't wait KayDub!!! And I know
Geneari try and keep positive, I know it's hard but you're still not officially out!!! Fx for a bfp for you. And what you posted sound like how I felt when I woke up this morning so please don't rule yourself out yet!!
I've also felt really sick today and couldn't eat cereal this morning because of the smell of the milk more bleeding gums too today
Hey!! 2 nights ago I noticed blood when I brushed my teeth. I thought nothing of it because i had just gotten a new tooth brush a few days before. Night before last, nothing.... and then last night they did it again! Weird.... you've mentioned that twice now... is that a sign?

IntelligentDemocracy: The right to vote based on intelligence, not age!
We all understand why societies need some form of discrimination to function. (meaning [Recognition and understanding of the difference between one person and another] not its other definition [The unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people or things, esp. on the grounds of race, age, or sex.])
I'm going to talk about discrimination in voting systems.
Most people agree (sadly not all people) that allowing the right to vote based on Race, Religion, Culture, and similar things is simply unethical and morally wrong. But what about discrimination by age?
What does 'too young' actually mean? We wouldn't discriminate against race if someone was too black or too white. Why do we discriminate against age if people are too young! I suppose there are physical differences with age but they are not the same for everyone and what if somebody was to not grow physically but still had the brain capacities of an average person, would they be denied the right to vote? Of course not!
There is the difference of knowledge. If I would suggest that ten year olds should be able to vote an obvious response would be 'ten year olds aren't smart enough to vote." So, it's intellect, not age!
When we set arbitrary age barriers for voting we are actually saying 'by X years old you should be knowledgeable enough to vote' so why do we discriminate by age as a way of discriminating by intelligence? It's more morally decent to say if you are not smart enough to vote you cannot vote. why not have a test in all schools (testing political knowledge) after which you gain the ability to vote? And you can take the test whenever you want to. No age boundaries.
This is just an idea (I don't know if it already exists) Im calling it IntelligentDemocracy

According to Omar Kelly of the Sun Sentinel, the Miami Dolphins have lost DT Vaughn Martin to an apparent injury sustained in Sunday's 27-23 win over the Atlanta Falcons.
Martin, who made the team after many thought he would be cut for younger and cheaper talent, really did not make his presence felt during his three games with the club recording just one tackle.
Miami has signed DT Marvin Austin to replace Martin in Miami's 4-3 alignment. The former North Carolina Tar Heel has some upside but it's a bit concerning considering DT Paul Soliai is injured.
Miami is now incredibly thin at the defensive tackle position. Not to mention the team struggled to stop the run against an Atlanta team missing it's top running back, Steven Jackson.
Cross your fingers Miami fans that big Paul can get himself healthy. Until then, Miami's defense may struggle to stop the run.

The United States Tax Code is about 18,500 pages long, filled with enough "ifs", "ands", and "buts" to make your head spin. So I put together a quick list of my top tips when it comes to filing your taxes this year, to help you have a stress free filing experience.
1) File electronically. According to IRS.gov, last year nearly 100 million taxpayers submitted their taxes online. When you file electronically through one of the IRS approved e-file providers or for free with Free File , you decrease the chances of making many common errors that can negatively affect your return. Free federal online filing is the easiest way to do your taxes and is the fastest way to get your return. The software takes you step-by-step through the e-filing process, asking you the questions many accountants ask to help maximize your potential deductions. You can find a list of qualified software companies on www.IRS.gov/efile
2) Take your time and most importantly double check your math. Software prevents many common math errors when filing, however, if you are filing with a paper return I urge you to sit down, take your time, and double check your numbers. This is important because if you do make a mistake in your taxes, you will need to amend it (with Form 1040X) which will take an additional 8 to 12 weeks from the IRS receipt date until the amendment is processed.
3) Be sure that your Form W-2 and all Form 1099s are correct. When you receive these forms go over them and make sure all of the info is correct. If you find an error, have it corrected as soon as possible so that the IRS's records agree with the amounts you show on your return. (Contact your employer to get these issues resolved.)
4) Double check that your social security number has been correctly written on the return. This seems so simple, but still so many people do not do it, so save yourself the time and stress, by checking this information right off the bat. If you are filing a paper return, make sure to include your social security number on each page of your return in case the IRS loses a page, it can be reattached quickly and easily. If you are married, check that your spouse's social security number is properly listed, whether filing a joint or separate return.
5) Get the right routing and account numbers. I love that these days you can make your tax return automatic by getting it deposited directly into different accounts. But you need to make sure the financial institution routing and account numbers entered on the return are accurate. Incorrect numbers can cause a refund to be delayed or even worse, deposited into the wrong account.
6) Make sure you take the Tax Credits and Deductions that are rightfully yours. Every year, the IRS collects millions of dollars in overpaid taxes. And guess what? They get to keep them—that's right, they get to keep money that rightfully belongs to you. This year, make sure you make all the deductions applicable to you and your situation. There are deductions from everything to contact lenses to lead paint removal. For more in depth itemized tax deduction, go to IRS.gov and type the words "tax deductions" into the search bar.
7) Keep copies of all documents that you send to the IRS. Use certified mail for all important correspondence to the IRS and make 1 or 2 copies of all the documents you are sending them. Don't forget to keep your records in good shape so that you can find answers to any IRS questions about your return.
My tax tips are quick and simple—so make sure you do them. They will save you a lot of time and aggravation.
Let me know how you did filing your taxes this year and if you filed electronically or not!
Live Rich,
David Bach

416-406-8009 | $6-$29 sharing plates
I've been to Origin three times now, two in the summer and just recently. I liked the variety and concept, but wasn't really impressed by any one dish. The menu has been tweaked a bit since then, and I think it's for the better. I'll detail last night's experience, but the recommendation is based on all three visits as a whole.
The menu is divided into Snacks, Raw, Mozza Bar, Chilled, Hot and Sweet. If there isn't at least three things that interest you, you're probably crazy. Only issue is price: $17 mozza on crustini plates and $12 for a small fry portion aren't exactly good value. In any case, here are some quick hits on what we sampled:
- Spicy spanish fries, chorizo, manchego: Essentially Spanish poutine and it's delicious. It won't surprise you, it won't refresh you, but it will make you happy.
- Buffalo mozzarella, pear, rosemary oil, pine nuts, honey on crustini (below): I've had this all three times I've gone for a reason. Sweet, savoury, nutty, and cheese. Win.
Photo Credit: Sammylicious.net
- Buffalo mozzarella, pesto, eggplant, roasted red pepper: More conventional flavours, roasted red pepper is the dominant flavour though.
- Duck, flour tortillas, cucumber, hoisin, sriracha, sour cream: This is a winning combination. Everyone around the table enjoyed.
- Jerk rock hen, fried rice, grapefruit, coconut, mango: A lot of people's favourite around the table. Hen was tender, flavours bright.
- Chorizo, manchego risotto, poached egg, salsa verde, dried black olive: Very successful. Risotto forms the creamy body, poached egg adds to richness, chorizo is spice, salsa verde is bright, and black olive adds salt. Not much for texture here, but doesn't really matter.
Other dishes (above) I'd recommend testing out are the deviled eggs (you'll hear about these from anyone you talk to about this place) and the spicy tuna hand roll with apple, shiso, miso mayo, and amaranth.
Service and Ambience
Lots to look at inside this place in the dining area and in the lounge space; the deep purple is an interesting palate for the funky light fixtures and furniture, and it fits the eclectic food choices.
Initially service was a little bumpy as we were told we'd all need to eat from the $50 prix fixe menu due to the growth of our group from 5 to 7 diners. After some 'Really? Why would we want to do that?', we were able to go a la carte for all.
The Reco?
You should definitely go. Are you likely to be blown away? Maybe. Is it going to be expensive? Probably. But as a couple or big group, you can get an unrivaled variety of well-executed sharing plates that's likely to leave you satisfied.

It seems everyone has an iPod or mp3 player these days. Most schools make kids turn them off and put them away while they're at school.
But a school in Chandler is letting kids pay to play their devices.
They are calling it "iFridays" -- if kids pay one dollar on Fridays at Pueblo Middle School they can listen to their music during lunch time.
The kids say think it's a great idea and administrators say it teaches responsibility -- and also brings in some extra cash for the school.
Friday lunch period at Kyrene Del Pueblo School in Chandler just got a lot more entertaining for students.
For one dollar they can buy a wristband that will allow them to listen to their iPods during the lunch break.
"Well I think it's really cool that they're letting Pueblo do the iFridays because kids like to listen to music a lot," says 6th grader Liam Thorne.
"I don't know, it's just a cool opportunity that we get to do at our school," says student Natalee Gray.
The so-called "iFridays" started at the beginning of the month and so far, the kids seem to like it.
"I just got these new headphones and a new iPod and I thought it's pretty cool for us to bring it to school and listen to it," says Thorne.
6th grade student Cohen Strawder says rocking out while he eats is a nice change.
"Well I just got a new phone for Christmas and then my mom got me these beats for a special after-Christmas present -- so I'm like oh, well that's perfect! Might as well."
Students can also use their e-readers -- but they can't access the internet, social media, or send text messages.
The money raised will stay at the school to help purchase materials for the classroom.
School administrators think it's a win-win situation.
"And so really it's just an opportunity for us to teach kids some responsible ways to use technology," says Assistant Principal James Martin.
The assistant principal says another school that also has "iFridays" brought in $7,000 in one year. Again, that money was used in classrooms and for school activities.
This could be something a lot of other schools may look into.

MILWAUKEE, WI (WSAU) Brewers' ace Yovani Gallardo apologized to his family, fans, teammates, and the Milwaukee organization yesterday after he got ticketed for first-time drunk driving.
Another motorist called sheriff's deputies after seeing Gallardo's pick-up truck driving slowly and making erratic lane changes. That was around 2:10 a-m yesterday on Interstate-94 near the ballpark.
Gallardo told the arresting officer he was drinking beer at a bar in Wauwatosa with Brewers' fans. His preliminary blood alcohol level was point-22, almost three times the limit of point-zero-eight. He was also cited for unsafe lane deviation.
The 27-year-old Gallardo said he made a bad decision. Manager Ron Roenicke said he was glad nobody got hurt. The skipper was the bench coach with the Angels in 2009 when their pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed by a drunk driver. And Roenicke said he mentioned that to Gallardo.
During the Brewers' T-V game broadcast last night, assistant general manager Gord Ash said Gallardo would likely make his next start tomorrow afternoon. Under the collective bargaining agreement, players charged with drunk driving are referred to a treatment board, and they can be fined for breaking team rules. The Brewers have a two a-m curfew, so Gallardo could be fined for being out after that. Ash said any team punishment would be done privately.

"I ordered these invitesfor my daughter's communion. I was especially happy with how quickly they came - just a couple of days. Wow!! Overall, I was pleased with the quality and the design of the invite. I ordered matte, so for future orders which I'm sure there will be I'll probably order semi-gloss to see the difference. Thanks Tiny Prints!! Can't wait for the guests to receive them."
"Perfect for our little Irish lass's First Communion! The text was clear and concise. The design that continued on the back was a beautiful touch."
"I am very pleased with this invitation for my son's communion. It is simple, classic, and easy to read. Good job, again...Tiny Prints!"
"The invitations' designs and color were excellent for the occasion that my wife and I were very impressed and happy we chose to order it through this company. Even the quality of the envelopes were awesome. Excellent job Tinyprints......keep up the excellent work you are doing!"
"I ordered these cards for my daughter's first communion and am extremely please with the purchase. The paper is very nice with sharp and clean print quality. The colors are soft and feminine, and the font looks great and is easy to read."

Savoring the Peace in Copalis Beach, Washington
If you're thinking about a trip to Ocean Shores, consider heading a little more north for a change of pace. Expect the same rugged ocean and same gamble on the weather, but an entirely different experience. Here you find less commercial development, a wide, sandy beach and a designated wildlife refuge connected to Griffiths-Priday Ocean State Park. The Copalis River gently flows into the ocean near an airport runway on the wet sand (low tide only!). Fly kites, comb the beach, dig for razor clams in season, watch birds, watch the sea, wade in the shallow spit, or do nothing. Pick up supplies in a nearby town because there's not much "town life" in Copalis Beach and that's sort of the point.

Iron Sheik
Real Name
Hossein Khosrow
Date of Birth
March 15, 1942
Place of Birth
In order to create new matches in the main event scene, WWE is contemplating a baby face turn for Randy Orton in the near future. Seeds have been planted on Monday Night Raw recently when his character is shown complaining frequently about being forced to put out fires created by Seth Rollins. The belief is that a feud between the two will be taking place very soon.
September 30, 2014
One name that will definitely not be at Hell in a Cell 2014 is Batista. He will be busy next month doing a new movie with acting legend Robert De Niro. The two will star in a film called Bus 657, which will be centered around a heist. Batista will be playing a greedy character who helps his coworker rob a bank to pay for health treatments for his daughter.
September 25, 2014
A new sitcom called Wrestling With Joeylicious, and as the name suggests, it is centered around the world of professional wrestling. The lead character clings on to his dreams by working at low level independent wrestling shows. Producers have managed to sign Roddy Piper, Mick Foley, Tito Santana and Jimmy Snuka to make an appearance on the show. They will each be portraying themselves.
September 25, 2014
Another potential legal battle is heading towards WWE. Honky Tonk Man is threatening to sue the company, and he is taunting them into suing him as well. The dispute between the two sides is over the use of the character and name. The former Intercontinental Champion is claiming that WWE has tried to prevent him from making a living and feeding his family on the independent wrestling circuit.
September 23, 2014
On Night of Champions 2014, Cody Rhodes and Goldust defeated Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso for the WWE tag team championship. Rumors are floating around that management felt that the twins had grown stale because they ran out of teams to defend the titles again. Plus, Rhodes has really been getting into his Stardust character, so the front office wants to see if the gimmick can pick up further steam with a championship push.
September 22, 2014
While the hot rumors are pointing to Darren Young being eventually revealed by WWE as the man underneath the bunny suit, a lot of fans have been wondering who has been portraying the character on television as of late. Reports have surfaced that developmental wrestler Sami Zayn has been the one in the suit. He apparently portrayed the character on Monday Night Raw and at live events.
September 17, 2014
If you watched WWE NXT Takeover last night, you know that Tyler Breeze failed to win the heavyweight championship. However, management might have something better for him. Reports have surfaced that Breeze is on the verge of being given a promotion to the main roster, where the cocky character will be joining the entourage of the Miz, which already features Damien Sandow.
September 12, 2014
When he was feuding with John Cena, Bray Wyatt appeared to be a lock to remain in the WWE main event scene for quite some time. When that feud ended, he was able to maintain some momentum when Chris Jericho made his return to the company and feuded with Wyatt. Since there is a lack of top level talent in WWE, there are now talks that management could have Wyatt feuding with Dolph Ziggler over the Intercontinental Championship, even though it seems out of the norm for his character to chase a secondary belt.
September 10, 2014
Even though there are still many who believe that the company will be folding at the end of the year, TNA has decided to sign Manik to a contract extension. Official terms of the deal have not been released yet, but reports are saying that is a multiple year pact. Management is also said to be toying around with the idea of a character change for the performer, so he is not restricted in the stories.
September 3, 2014
After struggling to choose which role he wanted to play, the Rock has now revealed that he will be portraying Black Adam on the big screen soon. The character is from Marvel. Black Adam is usually a villain, but he has sometimes been utilized as an antihero. Rock also had the option to play Captain Marvel, but he eventually opted to play the nemesis of the lead character instead.
September 3, 2014
Since his movie career has taken off thanks to the success of Guardians of the Galaxy, the widespread belief in the industry is that Batista is unlikely to return to WWE beyond a special appearance. During a recent interview, the former world heavyweight champion hinted that he would be a bit more inclined to return if management gave him more creative control over his character and story line.
September 2, 2014
WWE decisions are sometimes garbage, according to Batista. During a recent podcast interview with Chris Jericho, the former world heavyweight champion stated that he was disgusted by how the creative department utilized Daniel Bryan after he was put over at Wrestlemania 30. Batista felt that Bryan should have been allowed to sell the injuries from the previous night because it would have added to his lovable underdog character.
August 31, 2014
Those that watched Summerslam 2014 saw Nikki Bella doing her much rumored heel turn. She is expected to work in that role on television going forward. However, WWE did something peculiar at a live event in Sacramento over the weekend. Nikki worked as a baby face. She teamed up with Emma to defeat Alicia Fox and Layla El. The face team even attacked Rosa Mendes, who was portraying a heel character. No word yet on why WWE opted to do this.
August 24, 2014
There's been rumors floating around for quite some time now that WWE has lost interest in pushing Adam Rose because several key members of management, including Vince McMahon himself, are reportedly not fans of the character. It has now been noted that Rose has not had a match on Monday Night Raw in about a month, which leads many to believe that the rumors are indeed true.
August 24, 2014
Rumors are floating around right now that WWE officials were not too pleased with the performance that Alexander Rusev put on at Summerslam 2014 in his flag match against Jack Swagger. His selling of an ankle injury was sub par, and the manner in which he sold it was not very fitting of his character. WWE really wants him in the main event scene, so they're paying much more attention to his matches than usual.
August 21, 2014
Expect to hear plenty of comparisons between Dean Ambrose and Steve Austin over the next couple of months. WWE is having the former Shield member take elements of the Austin character in an attempt to win over even more fans. While it was not shown on Monday Night Raw, the company is doing a story where Ambrose refused medical attention after being severely injured by Kane and Seth Rollins.
August 21, 2014
Since her character has a broken back, Dixie Carter is selling that fact by staying away from Impact Wrestling. However, TNA fans will get to see her at least once more. Mikey Tenay and Carter will be doing an interview from her home soon. The move is designed to further the story line and generate more of a reaction for Bully Ray and the other faces.
August 15, 2014
During a recent interview, Triple H revealed some interesting things about Bray Wyatt. He stated that WWE was on the verge of giving him a release a while back. HHH said he was able to convince management to let him work on a new character and test it out on WWE NXT. Things worked out rather well, and Wyatt was eventually promoted to the main roster.
August 7, 2014
After 17 years of portraying the character, Kane might be receiving a new gimmick soon. Rumors have been floating around that he might be bringing the Jacob Goodnight character from the See No Evil movie series to WWE television. The belief is that management wanted to make it easier to promote the film. Some feel that the story line started when Kane handed over his mask to Stephanie McMahon on the last episode of Monday Night Raw.
August 7, 2014
WWE has announced that Dolph Ziggler will be challenging the Miz at Summerslam 2014 for the Intercontinental Championship. While his popularity remains pretty strong, this is not a push for Ziggler. Management simply needed a mid card baby face to put over Miz. A title change is not expected to take place, as the company wants to see how far this Hollywood character can go.
August 5, 2014
A picture of Alexander Rusev, Iron Sheik and Lana backstage at a WWE live event this week.

Freddie Blassie led Nikolai Volkov and the Iron Sheik to the ring, as the evil foreign team challenged Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham, collectively known as the US Express and accompanied by Freddie Blassie. It would be the first ever title change to take place at Wrestlemania 1.

Nurses know that water is essential to human life – a person can survive for about three weeks with no food, but will perish after only about a week with no water. An adult body, after all, is about 60% water. And yet, most Americans are mildly dehydrated, according to Harvard researchers. You're continually losing water through your breath, perspiration, elimination, etc. Adequate fluid intake helps make you healthier in so many ways, by nourishing absolutely every cell in your body.
How do you know if you're running low on vital fluids? Here are three warning signs:
Check your intuitive and physical fluid gauge.
Are you thirsty? That's the best way to judge if you're dehydrated. Sometimes, though, you lose water faster than your body's thirst mechanism registers the depletion. (During a sweaty workout in the hot sun, say.) Another excellent indicator is the color of your urine: It should be pale yellow. If it is often dark yellow, definitely drink more water.
There are other symptoms of dehydration, such as slight fatigue, mild headaches, dry throat, rough couch, and constipation. Other, more serious symptoms take longer to show up and may be harder to pinpoint: kidney stones and bladder cancer, for instance.
Check the scientifically recommended fluid gauge.
According to the Institute of Medicine, an average, healthy adult living in a moderate climate needs about 13 cups (men) and 9 cups (women) of fluid a day. That's close to the "Drink eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day" advice that's been popular for years. The "8 x 8" rule is a catchy slogan that's easy to remember and yet still agrees with the current scientific evidence.
Check for exceptions that may re-jigger your fluid gauge.
Any physical condition that makes you perspire or otherwise quickly lose bodily fluids requires a higher fluid intake in order to stay hydrated. For instance: Do you exercise strenuously? Do you live in a hot or humid climate? Are you breathing heated indoor air? Are you experiencing fever, vomiting, or diarrhea? Are you pregnant or breast-feeding? In certain situations, special drinks (with electrolytes) or medical intervention may be necessary to make up for rapid fluid loss.
Happily, most of the time the solution for dehydration is simple: drink eight cups daily, with water as your beverage of choice. If you keep a thermos on your desktop and sip from it throughout your shift, you'll easily stay hydrated. Only drawback: more trips to the restroom, something that nurses often find difficult to fit in. But that's another blog post topic!
What's your hydration situation? Please share your tips, tricks, and tools for quenching thirst.

Offset printing is a widely used printing technique where the inked image is transferred (or "offset") from a plate to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface. When used in combination with the lithographic process, which is based on the repulsion of oil and water, the offset technique employs a flat (planographic) image carrier on which the image to be printed obtains ink from ink rollers, while the non-printing area attracts a film of water, keeping the non-printing areas ink-free.

The Colorado Clean Diesel Program offers pollution reduction support for diesel vehicles -- primarily for public school bus fleets. Since 2006 this program has provided pollution reduction equipment, such as oxidation catalysts, crankcase filtration and engine pre-heaters at no charge to school districts using EPA grants and other funding. As of January 2013 more than 1,300 school buses in 50 Colorado counties have been retrofitted with pollution reduction devices, protecting 78,000 Colorado student bus riders from direct exposures to toxic diesel exhaust and offsetting more than 70,000 cars that would otherwise cause more congestion.
For more information, visit the Colorado Clean Diesel program website:

About a week ago, we showed you a video of a mentally fried dude doing his best Need for Speed impersonation: carelessly drifting on public roads with not a care in the world. We emphasized the dangers of being that reckless, no matter how cool it looks.
Turns out, another one of those videos has appeared on the 'Net, only this time, the perp can be seen driving a Lexus IS-F. The situations are different, but the dangers certainly aren't. In this case, the driver successfully pulls off the high-speed drive in the middle of traffic, narrowly escaping crashing while doing his dangerous stunt.
Technically speaking, he pulls off an impressive drift. – added brownie points for the degree of difficulty but in all sense and sensibilities, this is the kind of drift we don't encourage. We said it before, if you're going to drift, make sure it's in the appropriate environment where won't risk your life and the lives of those around you.
The shorthand version: don't be an idiot when you drift.

Roads will stay open for Workington's Olympic torch relay
Last updated at 19:41, Thursday, 17 May 2012
Workington's roads will remain open to traffic during the Olympic torch relay next month, when thousands of people will line the route.
The group co-ordinating the Olympic torch event on Thursday, June 21, last night explained why it had decided against road closures.
But one local school has already decided not to organise a whole-school trip to see the relay because of concerns for safety.
Mike Kidd, acting headteacher at Seaton Junior School, said it was too hazardous for the whole school to make the journey together and mingle with crowds.
He said: "Because we have got 220 kids it is too risky to try to marshal.
"If there was a cordoned off area that would be fine, but on an open street it would be too easy to lose a child."
He said, however, that parents were being encouraged to take their children out of school themselves for the relay.
"It's very important that the children get to see it because it is a once in a lifetime event," he added.
The Workington leg of the nationwide relay will start at the roundabout on New Bridge Road at 1pm.
Torch bearers will head through the town centre via Church Street, Falcon Street, Station Road, Oxford Street, Jane Street, Washington Street and Ramsay Brow to Stainburn School.
The torch will then head back to Harrington Road and along Moss Bay Road, finishing at the junction with Poole Road.
A countywide planning group, which includes councils, police and the Highways Agency, has agreed a traffic management plan.
Traffic flow will be managed by police.
A Metropolitan Police Service motorcycle escort will travel with the torch, along with five or six Cumbria police motorcycle outriders.
Parking restrictions will be in place and routine roadworks suspended.
Pedestrian crossings will have their lights switched off while the relay passes through and will be managed by Allerdale council officers, PCSOs or volunteer stewards.
Police will have overall control of the convoy, which will be followed by an ambulance.
At Beckstone Primary School in Harrington, headteacher David Warbrick has invited parents to take their children out of school for the event.
He said the school was not arranging its own trip because of concern over the distance from the school to the relay route, the crowds and issues such as lack of toilets.
Anne Tait, headteacher of St Michael's Infant and Nursery School, said her staff would take children on to Station Road to watch from behind railings which would protect them.
She added: "We wouldn't be taking them out if we didn't feel they'd be safe."

Planning and Urban Governance in Developing Societies; The Example of Akure, Ondo State of Nigeria
This paper explores urban planning practice and urban governance in Akure, Nigeria with the aim of determining the relationship between them. The paper discusses how planning can be used to promote and enhance good urban governance in developing countries. The data set for the study draws substantially from systematic survey of urban planning activities and local administration in the area. The paper found lack of linkage between urban planning and governance in the city. While the state Department of physical planning undertakes planning activities, the local government on the other hand is responsible for managing affairs of the city. The study also found that the city growing without adequate conscious planning inputs and no reference to planning by the managers of the city' affairs as represented by the local government council. The study emphasized the need to institute participatory planning and good governance in developing societies.

[preview of additional bonus to come]
I have an added bonus for you if you something from the Wishing You Were Here Add-on (which is currently on sale for 15% off).
[preview of additional bonus to come]
- Please remember to only use items from the products mentioned in this thread or from any commercial use items you own. We cannot accept pages that include items from anything else as that could cause the page to be in violation of other's terms of use.
- Each participant will submit at least 1 brag book quick page but not more than 3 using this kit only (you can include any commercial use items if you wish)
- To guard against folks being able to take previews uploaded to the gallery and turn them into quickpages without participating in this exchange, please save all of your submitted pages onto one blank canvas and save that as a preview jpg. Here's an example of a preview that Nancy implemented.
- Please upload your previews to the Brag Book Exchange Gallery.
- Layouts should be created and saved at 6" x 4" and 300ppi starting with a transparent background.
- If you are familiar with creating a quick page in a transparent .png file, please submit it in that format.
- If you are not, we have a couple of tutorials to help you in this area: Paint Shop Pro & Photoshop
- If you are unable to create a .png file, please design your quick page by creating your layout and using a white or black area (whichever is of most contrast to your layout) for the photo placements. Save your layout as a flattened .jpg file at full resolution (unless you are submitting a png file already). Please share this file and then post in this thread that you need help poking the holes for the pictures and I will do so.
- Please name your files as follows to help me track these easier. YourForumName_KitName_QP.png so as an example, mine would be HollyS_wywh_qp.png.
- I will need the preview .jpg at 600x400, and either the .png or .jpg file at the full 6x4 size for each quickpage you submit.
- Upload your preview to the Brag Book Page Exchange Gallery for all the oooohs and ahhhs!
- NEW***: In an effort to get you the albums much quicker after the exchange is over, I'm implementing a new way for us to share the files.
- please zip up your files all together so you are only uploading one file. My preference would be not to zip up a folder holding your files but only the files itself. That way when folks unzip, they won't get all these subfolders created.
- click http://www.4shared.com/dir/10467909/...b/hs_wywh.html
- toward the bottom of the screen you will see an "Upload Files" small window. Click the browse button inside there and navigate to your zip file and choose that to upload.
- Your computer will then upload the file so it may take a minute or two. After the upload is completed, you will not see anything in this folder even to tell you it was successful unfortunately but never fear, I will let you know if something went awry.
- Once the exchange is over, I will figure out who hasn't uploaded or has a problem with their files and when all is good will make it so that you can see all the files that everyone uploads and then you can download them!
- Sign-ups are requested for this so that we know who is working on pages.
- The submission deadline for this round is end of the day on Sunday, November 30th.
- The deadline to upload your zip is Tuesday, December 2nd.

So, first off, who has actually heard of the Ciro DOC or the Gaglioppo grape before? I had never so much as heard of either before it was recommend to me, and the chance to try something completely new is not to be missed. And the result: this Calabrian delight might not be up everyone's alley, but I was quite taken with it, despite a underwhelming showing on night 1.
Librandi, Rosso Classico, Ciro 2010
Ciro is in Calabria, and the grape used is Gaglioppo, neither of which I had heard of before this wine caught my curiosity. Light ruby, not far on from some roses. Heady and aromatic nose of dark fruits, plum, prominent notes of orange, a touch of sweet mint, floral hints, tomato, leathery earth, and cedar. Medium bodied and juicy on the palate, with lots of black cherry and bright plum notes (almost apricot), a prominent note orange zest providing the backbone, mint/cedar, a hint of sweet saddle leather, and earth, all with a very savory, fleshy tone. The mouthfeel and texture are delicious and rather lovely. You could identify this as Italian blind, and it is completely unique, yet a number of its components are rather Bordeaux-ish. Fascinating. Needs a day to really flesh out. The acid structure and balance of this are such that despite its apparent lightness, it should age very nicely for another 5 years or more. I like this quite a lot! This was delightful with spaghetti and meatballs. 3 Stars [9/29/13]

customers bought with this dress
Wedge Peep Toe with Rhinestone Ornament Style KELSEY 5 5
Great shoe The sizes are a bit unique and I typically wear a 9/9.5 regular but I had to go with the 10W. If I ignore the size differences the shoe was very comfortable and I am excited to have it dyed to match my wedding party. I chose Wisteria. The price for dying the shoe is very modest. June 24, 2014
Great shoe! Very comfortable. Wedge heel is great for not snagging or getting caught on your dress. Also great because I am having outdoor wedding! Don't have to worry about a heel getting stuck in the ground. Front embellishment is very classy and looks great with a lace/heavily beaded gown because it is just enough detail. Only giving these shoes a 4, because they are not versatile in the sense that they do not look good with my short reception dress because of the low heel. Almost look like a ballet flat when worn with something short, where shoe is completely exposed. May 2, 2014
Great Shoe, Runs Small! I normally wear an 8.5. I ended up with a 9.5 in these. Great shoe, very comfortable, can't wait to wear them at my wedding! April 26, 2014
LOVE I bought a satin dress with rusching and these shoes are PERFECT with my dress. Also, my accessories (that I bought from another site) work perfectly with the Rhinestones. You can't go wrong. They are also very comfortable. You won't regret it :) March 26, 2014
