Pittalwala, UC Riverside.
RIVERSIDE, Calif. – Cowpea is a protein-rich legume crop that plays a key role in sustaining food security for people and their livestock. Immensely important in many parts of the world, particularly drought-prone regions, it plays a central role in the diet and economy of hundreds of millions of people in Africa and Asia.
To meet the needs of a growing world population, new cowpea varieties with desirable traits, such as higher yield and quality, disease resistance, pest resistance and drought tolerance, are needed. But breeding these new varieties the conventional way — crossing one variety with another, based on best guesses — is time-consuming and laborious.
Enter DNA marker-assisted breeding, a genetic tool that can greatly accelerate breeding efforts by utilizing genetic "markers" or molecular flags in the plant genome that indicate the location of a particular genetic trait. Breeders use the markers to screen large populations of plants from crosses of different varieties. In effect, the markers help breeders locate genes linked to traits the way road signs help a motorist arrive at a destination.
This month, scientists at the University of California, Riverside received substantial funding by way of two grants from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to continue their work on developing better yielding varieties of cowpea through new genomic resources and marker-assisted breeding — research by which UC Riverside directly impacts cowpea production in several countries in Africa. The grants support USAID's agricultural research and capacity building work under Feed the Future, the U.S. Government's global hunger and food security initiative.
The two grants total nearly $7 million. The first, creating the Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Climate-Resilient Cowpea, is a nearly $5 million grant that supports a new five-year cowpea-breeding project with partners in four West African nations: Burkina Faso, Ghana, Nigeria and Senegal. The second grant, titled "Genetic improvement of cowpea to overcome biotic stress and drought constraints," extends a ten-year project and brings additional funding of about $2 million over four-and-a-half years to UCR through the Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Collaborative Research on Grain Legumes as a sub-contract with Michigan State University, East Lansing.
Specific traits of interest for cowpea improvement will include resistance to the drought-associated fungal pathogen Macrophomina phaseolina, tolerance against drought-induced early senescence, and resistance to insects, nematodes and other diseases, along with high yield and maintenance of traits of especial interest to Africa such as seed size, seed coat color and patterns.
"UCR cowpea research goes back more than 30 years," said Timothy Close, a professor of genetics in the Department of Botany and Plant Sciences and the principal investigator of the $5 million grant. "The USAID funding through Feed the Future is recognition of the tremendous value that UCR brings to cowpea research and the positive impact it is having on cowpea breeding for African farmers."
Cowpea originated in Africa. It is known also as southern pea, blackeye pea, crowder pea, lubia, niebe, coupe or frijole. In the United States, cowpea is popular in the south, where it is known as blackeyed peas and other names. California primarily grows the blackeyed dry-grain cowpea type.
"Both research projects are intimately tied to our collaborators in sub-Saharan Africa," Close said. "Beyond the technical capability we offer, we have a good network of partners in Africa for on-the-ground application of genetic improvement for cowpea."
Close explained that to breed improved varieties of cowpea, scientists must understand its genetic makeup, mark the location of genes that control important traits, and select the best trait combinations they wish to see emerge in new varieties. Close also explained that with very dense genetic markers it is not crucial to understand exactly which genes underpin the traits, though such information can be helpful for purposes such as finding similar genes within collections of genetically diverse relatives of cultivated cowpeas or even in other plants.
Rather than genetically modify cowpea via manipulation of genes in test tubes, the researchers will use the marker-assisted breeding technology to expedite conventional breeding and, thereby, speed up the production of new and improved cowpea varieties. Associated with traits desired for breeding, the genetic marker profiles of progeny derived from carefully chosen parents will be used to more deliberately design and assemble new superior cowpea varieties.
"We are no longer confined to slower, less directed methods of plant breeding, nor must we base all hope on genetically modified organisms," Close said. "With marker-assisted breeding we can, over just a few years, accomplish improvement in cowpea varieties that can enormously benefit farmers, markets and consumers."
Philip Roberts, a professor of nematology and the principal investigator on the $2 million USAID grant, explained that the marker-assisted breeding technology for cowpea, developed at UCR, is based on finding genetic variability in cowpea that already exists in nature and that can then be brought into breeding programs.
"Our method is focused on finding genetic variability that nature has already created and marking where the genes for the favorable traits are located in the cowpea genome," he said. "The marker-assisted selection then allows for the crossing of varieties with complementary sets of favorable traits so that these traits can be stacked up and passed down to progeny. It's not about making transgenes and inserting them into plants. It's about bringing favorable traits from donors into highly bred cultivars via accelerated cross-breeding."
Close and Roberts will be joined in the analysis by Stefano Lonardi, a professor of computer science and engineering and a co-principal investigator on the team, who will help process large amounts of data that the research projects will generate.
"We will use a computational method that greatly reduces the possibility of making mistakes and also reduces the cost," Lonardi said. "This method makes it possible to mark where in the genome the genes are located that influence, say, drought-tolerance. And the method also identifies those progeny that carry the alleles, which are forms of genes, for this and other desirable traits."
Close explained that marker-assisted breeding can also be understood as being analogous to creating a painting.
"Imagine you have eight different sources of favorable alleles," he said. "You can make a painting by having a blue segment in one section of the canvass for drought adaptation, a yellow one in another section for aphid resistance, and so on. This way, you create what's called a genetic ideotype. You then use markers to cross one variety with another, and calculate how close each progeny is to the ideotype. The goal is to get a variety close to the genetic ideotype through the least number of steps. Because the marker system has good knowledge-based efficiency built into it, it can deliver a cowpea variety that is close to the ideotype in as little as four to five years."
UCR has already had much success in releasing new cowpea varieties in California and West Africa, and has a longterm blackeye breeding program funded by the California Dry Bean Advisory Board.
"The UCR Coachella Valley Agricultural Research Station closely resembles environmental conditions in West Africa," Roberts said. "The lessons learned here in breeding this legacy crop plant have already helped boost yield and consumer adoption in Africa."
UCR is host to a collection of more than 5,000 cowpea accessions from around the world. Researchers at the university, like, most recently, Close and Roberts, have been providing assistance to African scientists for several decades. In the late 1970s, Anthony Hall, a professor emeritus of crop physiology in the Department of Botany and Plant Sciences, pioneered research on cowpea at UCR. His research on cowpea physiology contributed to a deeper understanding of the legume's adaptation to drought, heat and poor soils; his efforts with several African breeders helped develop highly successful varieties in Senegal, Sudan and Ghana. He also led the effort to establish a genetic map for cowpea, published in 1997.
"The UCR cowpea team has trained many graduate students from Africa at UCR over the years," Close said. "Several of these young and bright scientists have returned to their countries of origin and applied in farms there the knowledge in cowpea genetic research they gained at UCR. As before, in both the Feed the Future projects we will emphasize direct training of African breeders to ensure effective adoption of best practices related to the use of genetic markers."
The research projects will support a number of UCR graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, support staff and visiting scientists in the labs of Close, Roberts and Lonardi.
USAID is an independent agency that provides economic, development and humanitarian assistance around the world in support of the foreign policy goals of the United States. As stated in the President's National Security Strategy, USAID's work in development joins diplomacy and defense as one of three key pieces of the nation's foreign policy apparatus. USAID promotes peace and stability by fostering economic growth, protecting human health, providing emergency humanitarian assistance, and enhancing democracy in developing countries. These efforts to improve the lives of millions of people worldwide represent U.S. values and advance U.S. interests for peace and prosperity.
Feed the Future is the U.S. Government's global hunger and food security initiative. With a focus on smallholder farmers, particularly women, Feed the Future supports partner countries in developing their agriculture sectors to spur economic growth and trade that increase incomes and reduce hunger, poverty and undernutrition.

The How Powerful Is Your Soul Test
Their result for The How Powerful Is Your Soul Test ...
Your soul has accumulated 48/80 units of spirit wisdom! Your potential to become a god is 10/40
For SPIRIT WISDOM, these are the categories you fall into if you score the specified score.
-8 through 20 SPIRIT WISDOM: You are sadly very indept at understanding this world you live in. Very few people score this low in spirit wisdom, and for good reason... you need to start thinking harder about why you are here. Dont go kill yourself though, because that would be failing! Start paying more attention to your surroundings and trying to figure out why things are the way they are... it will help you in the long run.
21 - 40 SPIRIT WISDOM: Do not be disappointed in yourself. You still have a good amount of spirit wisdom... maybe not as much as you had hoped for though. dont be discouraged, however... There is always the opportunity to learn more!
41 - 65 SPIRIT WISDOM: You are an amazing asset to this existance. You should use your abilities to help other people, and bring new things into this world. In the afterlife, you will be honored and respected.
66-80 SPIRIT WISDOM: Wow. You have gained exceptional knowledge through this life. And you already know that there is always more to learn, so keep it up. Your afterlife will be amazing... Maybe you should start exploring astral projection or psychic ability, if you have not already.
-4-10 GOD POTENTIAL: Im sorry, but you do not have the potential to become a god. the chances it would happen (at least anytime within the next 5 million years) are slim to none. Dont worry though, being a powerful god is rare, after all.
11-20 GOD POTENTIAL: You have a very low chance at ever becoming a god. there is still a chance though, so try to be more creative! If you do become a god though, you probably wont be very powerful... sorry!
21-30 GOD POTENTIAL: I am personally amazed that you scored this high. You have admirable potential to become a powerful god. Keep trying for it and you will probably make it happen!
31-40 GOD POTENTIAL: HOLY SHIT!! If you scored this high without lying, you could very likely become a god after this life. So start thinking about what your universe will entail.
Like i said, this is all for fun and theory... dont take it too seriously now. :)
Their Analysis (Vertical line = Average)
They scored 48% on spirit wisdom, higher than 73% of your peers.
They scored 10% on god potential, higher than 36% of your peers.

This is a really, really bad review. I'd never listened to this band before so I decided to check it out because I've heard some good things. Almost nowhere did you describe the music. You mostly just reviewed the fact that you hate the album because it's so similar to his other albums. Guess what... I've not heard his other albums. So I left this review with even less of an idea of what Krallice is all about. I checked this album out and actually really like it; it's some good atmospheric black metal.
Also, it seems like you didn't really listen to the album completely because you already had a negative opinion of it right off the bat. Some of the comments suggest that you've not really got much of a genuine idea of the musical differences between this and their other albums, either, which apparently there are many.
If I could neg this review, I definitely would.
Digging: Eastern Front - Blood on Snow
Album Rating: 4.0noctus covered that all on page 1 :3
Digging: El-Ahrairah - El-Ahrairah
Good for him. But does that mean I'm not allowed to share my opinion on the review?
Album Rating: 4.0That's exactly what it means.
Digging: Converge - You Fail Me (Redux)
Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Offi just matter so much
Digging: Be'lakor - Vessels
Album Rating: 4.0Ya bc Noctu wouldn't have ignored the contextual significance of my kittyface emoticon which gave a different meaning to my comment :3
kyle's avatars keeps getting better and better
Digging: Mortiis - Født til å Herske
lord of the necklaces
Digging: Arizmenda - Beneath This Reality of Flesh
that avatar is simply amazing
so did the band name the ep after user hyperion or what?
Digging: Immolation - Here in After
I really hope they did lmao
Digging: American Football - American Football
The new EP was the only thing I've really dug by these guys that I've heard so far. I should probably give this one a chance at some point.
Digging: Coldworld - Autumn
I like Dichotoma or whatever. Haven't bothered with anything else though. Sweet dig hawks
Album Rating: 4.0Would say it's their best so worth checking, lot stronger than Hyperion
Digging: Inter Arma - Paradise Gallows

Nigeria: 25 killed in church blasts in northern state
Abuja: Suicide bombers targeted four churches in a series of attacks in northern Nigeria on Sunday, killing at least 25 people, many of them children, and prompting reprisal attacks.
As many as 80 people were also reported wounded in the restive Nigeria region that has become a centre of ethnic strife in the country.
In Kaduna city, where 10 people were killed inside a Catholic church and 29 wounded, the attacks also led to reprisals by Christian youth against local Muslims.
Following reports of violence, the government imposed a 24-hour curfew to prevent the situation from going out of hand.
In all, two churches were attacked in Kaduna city while another two were bombed in a nearby Zaria city.
Red Cross officials in the city said in a church located in Zaria town, most of those killed or wounded were children.
At least 25 people have been killed in the violence, initial estimates by officials said.
In the first attack, a bomber tried to drive a Honda Accord SUV into an Evangelical Church of West Africa (ECWA) auditorium but was stopped by security men causing his bomb to explode at the entrance, killing some persons and the bomber, Spokesman of Nigerian police Frank Mba said.
Eyewitnesses at another scene of attack said a bomber drove into KC church in Zaria, killing several people including children and students of a nearby polytechnic.
While no group claimed responsibility so far, similar attacks in the past have been blamed on radical Islamic sect Boko Haram.
Kaduna state has previously seen attacks by Boko Haram.
Last Sunday the group attacked two church services, sparking violence which killed seven people. Hundreds have died in its previous attacks on churches.
Boko Haram says it wants Islamic sharia law in place across Nigeria and analysts suggest it is trying to trigger clashes between Christians and Muslims.
A country of 150 million people, Nigeria`s population is equally divided between Christians and Muslims.

This is one of many hobbies. Though working two jobs I try to hit most of the local cemeteries in the tri state area. Though at the moment I am focusing on Holy Cross in Brooklyn, I will try to help with other cemeteries and upon request transfer current memeorial to families. I am taking photos of the requested and also taking pictures of other graves as I walk around the cemetery and up loading the photo and information from the marker. I don't have access to the burials in each plot that will be up You to make the request with the respective cemeteries.

The strangest thing happened when I tried to open the photo on Ancestry. It opened showing a picture of the Calvary cemetery sign.

Though Thanksgiving may be commonly known as the day we stuff ourselves, it's important to take some time to remember the reasons why we give thanks.
Thanksgiving, true to its name, serves as an excellent opportunity to take a look back at the year and realize all that we have to be thankful for. We took to the streets to ask folks around Irvine what they're most thankful for this year.

49ERS WEEK: Wednesday practice report
Green Bay -- For a team with 13 players on injured reserve, it's a wonder the Packers were able to put on a practice given all the players still on the 53-man roster who didn't participate.
A total of 10 players didn't take part in the full workout and only a few took part in the walk-through that precedes the real practice.
UPDATE: Nick Collins' injury is a shoulder, but he's expected to play this week. Woodson actually practiced in full.
The Packers wore their brown "throwback" helmets during practice, but they wore their usual green jerseys. It wasn't the most artful combination of colors to say the least. The "throwbacks'", which feature blue jerseys with a yellow circle and blue number on the front, will be worn Sunday.
Running back James Starks received a lot of practice time, most likely because he's going to be active this week. He did some contact drills with the receivers to help get him ready.
The two practice squad players who were brought up to the 53-man roster, linebacker Robert Francois and cornerback Josh Gordy, got a lot of work. Francois played inside during the portion of practice the media was present for.
Here's the injury report:
- Safety Nick Collins was nowhere to be seen. He usually practices on a limited basis on Wednesdays because of a sore knee. There was no mention Monday of any other kind of injury, so he may have been getting treatment on the knee.
- Safeties Atary Bigby (hamstring) and Anthony Smith (ankle) were not around, leaving only Charlie Peprah and Jarrett Bush to play safety. Cornerback Brandon Underwood filled in on a few snaps, but that might just have been to fill out the defense.
- Wide receiver Greg Jennings (foot) was not present. Coach Mike McCarthy said on Monday that he would probably miss a day of practice.
- Linebacker Clay Matthews (shin) is continuing his routine of not practicing Wednesday and Thursday. He was present and watching during the walk-throughs and practice.
- Defensive end Cullen Jenkins (calf) was at the walk-through, but mostly did stuff off to the side.
- Cornerback Pat Lee (ankle) was not present.
- Running back Dimitri Nance (concussion) was cleared to run full speed on the side, but he was not allowed to practice. He evidently is close to being given the green light.
- Cornerback Charles Woodson (toe) per usual only was around for the walk-through.

HP LaserJet P3015d monochrome laser printer
Although this printer is expandable and holds lots of paper, it falls short in fundamental areas.
- Includes autoduplexer, faster-than-average text speed
- Lacks Ethernet connectivity, subpar print quality for graphics
Bottom Line
Although this printer is expandable and holds lots of paper, it falls short in fundamental areas.
Price$ 1,899.00 (AUD)

Special Offers
The HP LaserJet P3015d is a midpriced monochrome laser printer that doesn't realise its full potential. Though the company touts it as an enterprise model, it's expensive to operate and it has limited connectivity options.
The LaserJet P3015d performed speedily in our tests. It managed a top pace of 36.5 pages per minute printing plain text — shy of HP's claim of 42 ppm, but still faster than the results from two of its like-priced competitors, the Ricoh Aficio SP 4210N and the Xerox Phaser 3600/N. Its graphics speeds also largely exceeded the average. As with most monochrome lasers, however, print quality beyond text was disappointing: The LaserJet P3015d's images showed grainy textures and visible banding.
This printer lacks an Ethernet port, which limits the unit's connectivity, and in my tests, during setup, it led to a few hiccups. The installation wizard prompted me to select the type of connection (local or network) that I planned to use. The Getting Started guide even illustrates plugging in the Ethernet cable. But where? Around back, the printer does have an enhanced I/O slot in case you want to add an internal print server or parallel port. And on the face of the printer, next to the multipurpose tray, is an external host USB port for printing photos or PDF files directly from a flash drive.
At least the machine handles paper the way an enterprise laser should. The LaserJet P3015d ships with a 100-sheet multipurpose tray and a 500-sheet main tray. You can increase the maximum paper capacity to 1600 by adding two optional paper trays. Even better, the P3015d comes standard with an automatic duplexer. The P3015d's main paper tray is extremely sturdy and has well-designed, smooth-sliding paper guides. The multipurpose tray has extensions that telescope outward to support longer media. The extensions are sturdy and that's a good thing, because it's possible to slam the tray closed with the extensions still out.
The machine ships with a 6000-page black cartridge. A replacement cartridge costs $244.71, or 4.1 cents per A4 page. Predictably, the 12,500-page high-yield cartridge is a better deal: It costs $335.48, or 2.7 cents per page. That's an average cost per page compared with monochrome lasers overall, but more expensive than the best rates you can get from the Ricoh Aficio SP 4210N and Xerox Phaser 3600/N. The toner cartridge slides in and out of its slot easily enough, though if you're not careful you can easily grab the flimsy plastic fuser cover at the bottom of the cartridge rather than the much sturdier handle higher up. Illustrations inside the printer show you how to remove the cartridge, but the raised black images on a black background are hard to see.
Although the HP LaserJet P3015d has speed and roomy paper capacity to its credit, it can't compete as well in print quality and the cost to print. It's a decent printer, but other monochrome laser models we've tested in its price range are a better deal overall.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Choosing the right cloud for your workloads is a balancing act that can cost your organization time, money and aggravation - unless you get it right the first time. Economics, speed, performance, accessibility, administrative needs and security all play a vital role in dictating your approach to the cloud. Without knowing the right questions to ask, you could wind up paying for capacity you'll never need or underestimating the resources required to run your applications.

The kit works great has everything you need to install it. everything fits easily without any modifications, high quality parts .and it's shipped fast.
Reviewed By Adolphus B (PRESCOTT, AZ) Reviewed for a 2015 Ford F-150 —6/20/2016 7:29 PM
The air bags made a great improvement in the ride and handling of my 2015 F-150 SuperCrew when towing my Lance 2285 trailer. I am using 10 psi in the air bags without the trailer, and 35 psi when towing the trailer, and that seems to work well. My only problem installing the kit was restricted access to the left side frame rail for installing the backing plates for the frame bracket bolts. Two brake lines were blocking the access hole so I had my favorite shop install that bracket.

I added this to my 2011 F150 with the Firestone airbags. GREAT product and works perfect. I had 2 installation issues to overcome. First was the location to place it. I mounted the compressor to the under side of the bed, directly behind the spare tire. It's well out of the weather and well protected. Second was power supply to the controller. Key point: use the exact gauge wire as any other accessories you have connect (aka: amplifier, etc.).

Some women will do anything to be thin. Charla Krupp's not one of them.
"I'd rather follow my rules for dressing thin and be a few kilos overweight than starve," the former Glamour magazine beauty director says from New York.
"And to prove it, there's a picture of her looking horrible in her book How to Never Look Fat Again, followed by a shot of her an hour later looking great.
"Everyone wants to know how much weight I lost. The point is what a difference clothes can make. And hairstyling. And shoes."
She won't reveal her vital statistics.
"I made a pact not to tell my age and my size goes up and down like lots of women. I am five feet [152 centimetres] tall and was 15 pounds [six kilograms] heavier when I wrote the book."
Now she is what her husband, Richard Zoglin, calls "just gorgeous". Her approach, to put it mildly, is different from other self-help books. Plus-size models illustrate her theories and, coining the terms High Fat and No Fat, she treats clothes like food.
"We all know the calorie counts. No Fat is broccoli and hard-boiled eggs, High Fat is hamburger and doughnuts. So consider clothes fattening and ask, 'How many calories is this? I can't wear it."'
She says overweight women make terrible mistakes wearing big T-shirts, huge dresses and elastic-waisted pants.
"You can't find your body in those clothes. The overall shape is blobby. It's better to show it, your bones don't change."
A-line dresses and straight-leg jeans with short, curvy jackets are the answer. Another mistake is too-tight clothes revealing back fat, aka muffin tops.
Madam, go up a size. Underwear is a disaster. Bras are stretched ("they're only good for 100 washings"). Bikinis, boy shorts and thongs don't compress, "so if you want to wear sexy little things, don't".
If this is beginning to sound hard, relax. But not too much.
Krupp's book, designed for those with more than the attention span of a gnat, contains lists such as: Ten Things to Look Thinner by Tonight; If I Knew These 37 Things Sooner, I Would be Thinner; The 100 Most Fattening Things You Can Wear; Skinny Clicks - Your Guide to No Fat Shopping Online; as well as snappy chapters that focus on specific problems.
There's a lot to digest in How to Never Look Fat with a Big Bust: "A V-neck is good, with a hip-length jacket and a long necklace for another focal point away from your breasts.
"Hoist them as high as possible to add inches to the torso. Avoid belts and tight safari jackets with patch pockets."
Readers with a Buddha Belly (aka jelly belly, girly gut, breadbasket) need high-waist shapewear.
"If it sits in your waist you will get a pop-out of flesh. You want it covered all the way to the bra base. I don't know where the flab goes but it goes somewhere."
Tight, light-coloured dresses are High Fat. Black A-line dresses, No Fat.
Shapewear seems to be the answer to almost everything but especially wide hips and thighs. Snap on Spanx Skinny Britches (Oprah Winfrey has "gone off panties" and wears nothing else).
Cargo pants, shorts, pouffy skirts are HF. Knee-length pencil skirts, wide-leg pants, wrap dresses are NF.
Big Booty is having its moment, with Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce maximising their assets but regular bums should wear loose shift dresses or flared skirts.
Dark-denim straight-legs and bum-covering sweaters are NF, whereas skinny high-rise jeans with jazzy logo'd pockets are HF. Ditto evening wear. Big bows, tulle and ruffles are asking for trouble.
"It takes time to find a black sheath dress but when you do, grab it and be happy it's in your closet," Krupp says. Hair down with volume, not up. Ditch the centre part for a slimmer face. A breeze, really.
It's fascinating that workout gear is fashionable again. NF sleek fitted sweat jackets and yoga pants replace HF bulky T-shirts and shorts.
And puffa coats are fat-making and therefore verboten. A black single-breasted A-line coat is svelte-looking; an oversized hat makes the face tiny.
Heavy calves are dealt with brusquely: banish high gladiator sandals and ankle-strap shoes. High heels and black tights turn legs from fleshy to sleek.
In the end, though, isn't this all just a matter of vanity? A shade narcissistic?
"Absolutely not," Krupp fires back. "Women are judged by the way they look, especially now times are tough in the job market. If you can trick someone into thinking you are the best, why not wear clothes to your advantage? It's not vanity. Our society is very judgmental."
Even so, what's wrong with dressing just for comfort? "Well, on your own head be it. Who knows who you'll bump into at the mall? A potential boss? But on your own at home, wear a bathrobe with nothing underneath. I do."
At one point she wrote a chapter on How to Look Thinner in Bed but decided it was "too Cosmo" and changed her mind. "Then I met a friend who said, 'If I could wear shapewear in bed I would."' So she rethought? "Oh, I don't want women to feel pressured. I mean, sleep in a bodysuit all night? I don't think so."
Ten most fattening things to wear
- Shirt dresses
- Bright turtlenecks
- Leather pants
- 12.7-centimetre-wide belts
- Handbags as big as luggage
- Over-the-knee boots
- Round eyewear
- Thick platform shoes
- Tube tops and bustiers
- White coats, pants, shoes, stockings
Ten tips to look thinner by tonight
- A solid-coloured A-line dress
- Black shoes teamed with black opaque tights
- Shapewear (cuts 4.5 kilos)
- Wear a bra to lift your boobs
- Fake tan 6. V-neck sweater (no turtle/crew)
- Curvy, not boxy, jacket
- A controlling camisole
- Skirts five centimetres above the knee
- Loose, skinny belt over a long, thin sweater
- Sydney Morning Herald

Devils' Disciples
If ASU Mens Basketball coach Herb Sendek thought he had it rough coaching against the big dogs in the Atlantic Coast Conference, or trying to bring the Sun Devils back from the dead in recent years, he didnt know what rough was.
Rough is trying to take the Sun Devils back to the NCAAs without whiz kids James Harden and Jeff Pendergraph. Harden was drafted No. 3 overall by the Oklahoma City Thunder; Pendergraphs now with the Portland Trail Blazers after being taken with the 31st pick.
Thank God for Sendeks mastery of Xs and Os, cause the whiteboard gurus gonna need every trick in the book when his top returning player is gutsy but, well, kinda pasty senior point guard Derek Glasser, who Sendek calls a steady hand at the wheel.
Uh, blah?

"For us to come out and answer real quick it sends a message we're not going to go away," Vogelsong said.
Ryan Vogelsong outduels Stephen Strasburg as Giants beat Nationals →
"It was better but still not where I want to be," he said. "I felt better the last couple of innings, but not as crisp as I'd really like."
