08:00 AM ET 01.24 | After a lockout year, the Knicks are back on top. The NBA locked out its players in the hopes of constraining their salaries, boosting profitability and raising franchise values. A year later, owners should be ecstatic with the results. The average NBA team is worth $509 million, a 30% increase over last year. ... The New York Knicks are the league's most valuable team, worth $1.1 billion, reclaiming the crown from the Los Angeles Lakers, who topped last year's list. The Knicks' value rose 41%, mainly due to a $980 million renovation of Madison Square Garden that is expected to be completed this summer. The makeover resulted in an NBA-leading $243 million in revenue last season.
And the Mighty Raptors are the most valuable NBA team in Canada.

Huh............they are worth double the average....How will this get twisted around into a melo sucks and NY sucks thread by all the haters?Let me guess..<in whiny voice> if they weren't in NY, they'd be last....or.....any team in NY would be worth more.....Blah, blah, blahSmh in advance
Dedicated haters don't need any logical connection to the thread. They can just start out with NY ice cream sucks and go from there. (Besides real connoisseurs know the Hawaiiain ice with ice cream is the best esp. at Hilo Ice Cream Shack).

See how easy it is to post complete irrelevance!
Once Felton is bacjk and is able to reduce Kidd's minutes I think they'll kickstart a winning streak again. Amare is actually playing well coming back from the injury but obviously will take awhile until he gets his timing back as well as Shumpert... I don't think Knick fans are worried too much with the recent slumping as they are getting their starters back slowly but surely...
Despite the slump (or in hater-speak the inevitable collapse) they are still only 2 behind the Heat who have been similarly slumping, but for some reason not inevitably collapsing.
Yeah suckers, the Knicks are big business and second to none. It reflects the greatness of New York City and its people,and by the way, also, second to none. We are greatest and most divesified city on the face of the earth. Home to the Statue of Liberty, the World Finance Center, Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, the New York Yankees, the New New York Giants, Carnegie Hall, the Metropolitan Opera, Times Square, Grand Central Station, the Lincoln Theater and the list goes on and on Suckers. Apple is spittin the real fa you cats and that the deal, so shutty and hate all you want Suckers. It ain't gonna change a thing.....chumps! Apple and I'm out!
But what about your ice cream. Or sherbert! Huh! What about that!

LINCOLN — A successful four-game homestand may have provided a much-needed spark for the slumping Nebraska offense.
The numbers weren't overly impressive — the Huskers averaged 6.5 runs and hit .262 as a team during the four wins in Lincoln. They had averaged 2.4 runs and hit .242 in their first seven games, all on the road.
But coach Darin Erstad recognized more selflessness from his players at the plate, especially during Wednesday's doubleheader sweep of Northern Colorado.
"I thought that our approach was better," he said. "The intent of the swings looked better."
The goal now for Nebraska (4-7) is to take that mentality on the road this weekend, when the Huskers play three at Louisiana Tech. The series finale was moved from Sunday to Saturday, setting up a doubleheader to begin at 1 p.m.
The Huskers won three of four matchups against Louisiana Tech (3-10) last season, outscoring the Bulldogs 47-12. NU scored a season-high 22 runs in one game of that series.
Outbursts like that last season are what have kept Nebraska's players from panicking, according to sophomore outfielder Austin Darby.
The way Darby sees it, most hitters don't find their rhythm right out of the gate. And it didn't help that NU was facing "high-quality" pitching during the first two weeks, he said.
|Join the conversation on the Big Red Today Facebook page.
"We knew when we started getting into a groove, everything would kind of click," he said.
Nebraska's heading toward that point now, it seems.
Ten of the Huskers' 20 extra-base hits have come in their last four games. They had 13 two-out hits and produced 12 two-out runs during that stretch. They hit .275 with runners in scoring position after batting .200 in those scenarios during the first seven games.
Erstad still wants better situational hitting. And more consistent bunting. He'd like to hit-and-run more, too.
But there's been progress, according to Erstad.
Darby said extra reps in the batting cage have helped with that. Same goes for a relaxed atmosphere in the clubhouse.
"Everybody was playing tense, not loose at all, so we've just been saying, 'Let's have fun,'" Darby said. "From every aspect, I feel like we're playing as a unit now."

Billick: Mallett Must Mature Mentally
April 21st, 2011 01:24 PM║ Posted By: John Pennington ║ Permalink
║ Schools: Arkansas
Tags: Brian Billick, Former Arkansas, NFL, Ryan Mallett
Former Super Bowl-winning coach Brian Billick is examining the quarterbacks in this year's draft for Baltimore radio station WNST-AM. Former Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett received his latest once-over.
Billick writes that Mallett "has all the tools to be successful at the next level." And then comes the but:
Mallett will need to mature most on the mental side of the game. For a professional athlete, especially a franchise quarterback, this mental maturation process is both off the field and on the field. Off the field, his character has been dissected and his unwillingness to answer drug-related questions at the NFL Combine only fueled the fire. To me, this is awfully reminiscent of Ryan leaf as he struggled to find his way in the NFL.
No player wants to draw comparisons to Leaf. Unfortunately for Mallett, Billick's not the first person to draw that parallel. The ex-Ravens coach also believes Mallett has some mental work to do on the field when it comes to hot reads, audibles, and coverage reads.
In order to do all these things, he will need to spend hours in film study and commit himself to nothing other than football season after season. I am not sure he is mentally prepared for that right now.
This is all just one man's opinion, of course. But there are a lot of other "one man's" out there right now who happen to view Mallett as Billick does.

Reviewing published clinical guidelines
This is a brief summary of how NICE carries out surveillance of published clinical guidelines to establish whether an update is needed. See all published clinical guidelines.
This is an interim process and methodology, which is described in more detail here.
Published guidelines undergo surveillance reviews every 2 years after publication to decide if an update is needed at that time. This surveillance review decision is informed by a number of stages of intelligence gathering, including searches for evidence, related guidance and qualitative feedback from other NICE departments, the National Collaborating Centre (NCC) that developed the original guideline and the Guideline Development Group (GDG).
1. Stakeholders register interest
National organisations representing patients and carers, and also healthcare professionals involved in their care, can register as stakeholders.
Read more about stakeholder registration.
2. Surveillance process begins
Searches take place for new evidence that may have emerged after publication of the guideline that will inform surveillance review proposals for updating.
3. Surveillance review proposal prepared
The surveillance review proposal will outline a summary of the key factors that have influenced the decision behind the proposal.
4. Consultation on the surveillance review proposal (only for proposals to not update the guideline at 4 and 8 years after publication)
This is a period for registered stakeholders to comment on any surveillance review proposal to not update the guideline in whole or in part.
Surveillance review proposals about guidelines undergoing surveillance at 2, 6 and 10 years after publication will not be consulted on.
5. Final surveillance review decision produced
NICE Guidance Executive makes a final decision on whether NICE will update the guideline.
6. Surveillance review decision issued
NICE publishes the review decision on its website.

In Anthro's flagship Carl's Table CT12, you get a complete reading room work environment. Program your preferred sitting and standing positions (height and tilt) into the table. The Monitor Control System moves the entire bank of (up to four) displays up and down, forward and back, with electric control. The Adaptive Lighting System relieves eye strain.
The right chair makes all the difference. Choose one from Anthro that supports your head, neck, shoulders, and forearms to reduce strain on your body and keep you energized.
The front 'Coffee Surface' extends all the way to the front of the station, and it stays level even when the table is tilted, so it's a great place for your phone or the all-important cup of Joe.
This powered 3-port USB hub provides desktop connectivity for all your devices.
Convenient features include twin dimmable LED task lights, cooling fans that keep air moving in front of your displays so you stay fresh, and an easy-to-clean worksurface pad that's both comfortable against your arms and keeps items in place when the table is tilted.
The front worksurface is 23.5" deep to completely support your forearms, relieving strain on your shoulders and neck. The surface is 58" wide, plenty of space for keyboard, mouse, voice system, and charts. The keypad on the right side of the worksurface adjusts the table's height (28"-48") and tilt (0-15 degrees). This is also where you program your preferred height and tilt.
CT12's safety system stops the table's motion whenever it senses an obstacle. Sensors are located under the center of the table, under the coffee surface, and under each CPU holder.
Route cords and cable's to ensure that they're long enough to reach through the table's entire range of motion.
CT12 provides three power strips with a total of fourteen outlets to power your equipment. Use the covered back cable bin to protect and conceal all your cords and cables.
With the Cable Management System, you can move the table to any position and the cords and equipment stay where they belong.
Carl's Table CT12 is the most advanced radiology workstation to date; a workspace that keeps radiologists as productive and happy as possible.
Download Detail Dimension Drawing (pdf)
Carl's Table is not the same animal as its competition. It really takes body
mechanics into account… Obviously, all radiologists sit for long periods
of time reading cases. So if you can easily change from sitting to standing
and back again, it increases both your comfort and productivity… Simply
put, Carl's Table is the only workstation that addresses my personal safety.
Dr. Trautwine - Austin, TX
In all my dealings with suppliers over the years, I have NEVER had such outstanding customer service from any supplier I have ever dealt with. I believe you will be making an excellent decision if you decide to work with Anthro, and I cannot recommend them more highly. - Kathryn Dunne, Ophthalmic Technologies
Kathryn Dunne, Ophthalmic Technologies
So many companies have forgotten what GOOD customer service is all about - Anthro has not. What a relief it is to deal with people who can do their jobs with common sense, courtesy, and professionalism - all without working from a script!" Thanks again for the excellent customer service!
Kurt F.
Most often, the furniture usually needs to accommodate more than one body type and size.
"We have to make sure that the workspace is customizable to each individual," Garcia says.
"The Anthro tables aren't just adjustable for height, but also for tilt and lighting. Once we
deployed these types of desks and chairs, most of the physical complaints pretty much
Dennis Garcia, Imaging Informatics Operations Manager UCLA Medical Center
There has been a definite reduction in fatigue as well as back problems since our radiologists started using the Carl's Table and Verte chairs. Customer support is great at Anthro also.
The install/service tech was wonderful at our installs. He is extremely knowledgeable and strives to make the customer happy and satisfied with the products.

Quarterback Nick Marshall looked more confident in his second start for Auburn, and Auburn's coaches looked more confident in him.
In Auburn's first scoring drive, Marshall completed 4 of 5 passes, including the 18-yard touchdown pass to Marcus Davis. On the second drive, he hit a big third-down pass to Jaylon Denson before taking off for two big runs.
Marshall finished the first half with 198 total yards and two touchdown passes, including a 68-yard bomb to Sammie Coates. He committed his first turnover at Auburn with a third-quarter fumble at Auburn's 17, but it resulted in a field goal.
It was bend but don't break for Auburn, which gave up yards between the 20-yard lines but stiffened in the red zone.
Arkansas State's first four possessions reached the red zone or close to it, resulting in a field goal, two fourth-down stops and a punt. The Tigers stuffed David Oku on fourth-and-one from the their 20 in the first quarter and flushed quarterback Adam Kennedy from the pocket, forcing a rushed throw on fourth-and-five from the AU 25 in the second. ASU got inside Auburn's 5 to start the third quarter and recovered a Marshall fumble at the 17, but both chances resulted in field goals.
Special teams
There was nothing spectacular, but there was nothing disastrous.
Steven Clark's 25-yard punt in the fourth quarter gave Arkansas State good field position, but Auburn's defense again stiffened when ASU got into scoring position.
A holding penalty on Chris Davis' 39-yard punt return pretty much doomed any chance Auburn had to score at the end of the second quarter, but the Tigers were leading 21-3 by that point.
On offense, Auburn's coaching staff turned Marshall loose to do more in his second start with Auburn, and he made plays while committing just one turnover. Defensively, the Tigers kept Arkansas State in front of them, save for one play. J.D. McKissic would have scored had Kennedy's 40-yard pass in the first quarter hit him in stride. McKissic had to lunge out to catch it and fell to the turf.
Malzahn's history with Arkansas State, having coached the Red Wolves in 2012, raised the possibility of the defending Sun Belt Conference champion giving Auburn a scare. Because of Auburn's defense, it didn't happen, and Marshall continued to gain confidence headed into next week's SEC opener.

Michigan Technological University — Biological Sciences, Social Sciences, Forest Resources and Environmental Science
- Program Type:
- Coverdell Fellows
- Department:
- Biological Sciences, Social Sciences, Forest Resources and Environmental Science
- Degrees Awarded:
- Applied Ecology (MS), Biological Science (MS), Environmental Policy (MS), Forest Ecology and Management (MS), Forest Molecular Genetics & Biotechnology (MS), Forestry (MS), Industrial Archaeology (MS)
- Admissions Deadlines:
Rolling, although each department may have specific deadlines for financial awards.
- Admissions Cycle:
- Program Start:
- Fall or Spring semester (when new Fellows arrive on campus)
- Program Founded:
- December, 2012
No application fee, 30% tuition fellowship, all credits associated with internship paid by Michigan Tech, limited graduate assistantships available on a competitive basis, paid VISTA internship with a VISTA education award ($5,350) upon completion of service.
The Coverdell Fellows program at Michigan Tech is a great way to reenter the United States. Houghton is rural and remote, surrounded by forests and Lake Superior. Michigan Tech has an active Peace Corps community. Our Fellows program covers a range of disciplines that feed into internships with VISTA through the Department of Interior's Office of Surface Mining. Graduate classes are small and focused. The program is typically one year on campus, one year of an internship and one more academic semester to complete the research.
The year-long internships are conducted in coordination with two Office of Surface Mining VISTA programs: the Western Hardrock Watershed Team (http://www.hardrockteam.org/)and the Appalachian Coal Country Team (http://www.coalcountryteam.org/). The two teams work in communities that have been economically or environmentally damaged by prior mining activities. The communities have needs from stream and watershed restoration to historic preservation to economic development to broader community development programs. RPCVs will enhance the program by bringing their experience with community development and cultural awareness to the program. It is a natural fit for RPCVs who want to continue to work in rural development and improve their skill set by obtaining a graduate education in the appropriate field of study.
Applicants must be RPCVs and provide their DOS, GRE, transcripts from their undergraduate institution(s), letters of recommendation, letter of intent, and application (available on line). We recommend consulting with a faculty member prior to application. Potential Fellows should also apply to both the VISTA Western Hardrock Team and the VISTA Applachian Coal Country Team.

Crookston native remembered fondly following his death in construction accidentFamily and friends are remembering a former Crookston man who died Monday in a construction accident in the Twin Cities.
By: Adam Ladwig, WDAZ
Family and friends are remembering a former Crookston man who died Monday in a construction accident in the Twin Cities.
34-year-old Cory Lewellin graduated from Crookston High School in 1997. One of his former teachers remembered him Wedmesdau as a kind, happy student.
The Lewellin family left Crookston soon after Cory graduated High School in 1997, but there are people in town who still remember him fondly.
Cory Lewellin was operating a crane on Monday near St. Paul when it tipped over, killing him. Lewellin graduated from Crookston High School in 1997. Family friend Jim Kent says it was news no one wanted to hear.
Jim: "He was just a normal, good natured boy, is what Cory was, so of course we're very, very sad to hear this news."
Kent taught Lewellin in music class. He remembers his former student fondly.
Jim: "Very nice. Very smiley. Very much enjoyed Cory."
The Lewellin family left Crookston soon after Cory graduated, but not before they left an impact. The Lewellin family was a big part of the community during their time in Crookston. Cory's father Butch helped found the local methodist church and Cory played on the Crookston High School football team.
We had been together and had done family activities and so forth, together. He is a member of our extended family. Lewellin's family now lives in Byron, Minnesota. His father Butch says Cory had a great sense of humor and loved nature. He says his son was fiercly protective of his mother and sister...and all women. Cory was engaged...his fiance is expecting their second child together in two weeks.
Jim Kent says Cory last came to visit about a year ago. He says he won't forget the last chance he got to see him.
Jim: "We happened to be having pizza that evening, it was a Sunday evening, so we gave Cory the rest of our pizza, and my wife's good pizza cutter went off with Cory."
Cory Lewellin's family say he had a soft spot in his heart for children. He cared for his own son, and his fiance's two children from a previous relationship.
Lewellin will be laid to rest on Saturday in Mora, Minnesota. His former teacher Jim Kent will sing at the ceremony.

Chase Field's 'Uptown' sign is coming down
Aptly named 'Uptown', the right field bleachers were a tribute to the player who was supposed to be a perennial All-Star and face of the franchise.
While Upton has shown glimpses of being that guy, his inconsistency has caused some to doubt his future.
And Thursday, Arizona Sports 620's John Gambadoro reported Chase Field's future will no longer included Uptown.
Uptown signs coming down at Chase! Don't read anything into it, was something agreed to at end of season by both parties...— John Gambadoro (@Gambo620) January 10, 2013
It's tough not to read anything into the move, especially with persistent trade rumors surrounding the player. Should the D-backs trade the outfielder they would have to get rid of the section, so this could be a pre-emptive move.
Then again, it's possible this decision has no ties to Upton's future other than the player not wanting his own section in the ballpark.

Nails on a chalkboard. A fly buzzing around the room. A child having a tantrum in the next apartment. The drip-drip-drip of a leaking faucet. An overheard cell-phone conversation in a public place. Most people would agree that these things are amazingly annoying, but what is it about them, exactly, that irritates us so much?
According to "Annoying: The Science of What Bugs Us," some sounds, like the screech-squeak of nails on a chalkboard or the high-pitched drone of a mosquito near one's ear, are irritating because we react to them in a physical way. "It seems to be something intrinsic about that mix of frequencies," said Flora Lichtman, co-author of "Annoying: The Science of What Bugs Us," in a recent interview with NPR. "The change in volume rapidly-it's called 'rough' in acoustics-most people's ears don't like that stimulus."
We all react to sounds, sensations, and situations differently because of our personal experiences, cultural differences, and emotional associations-it's

Arnold Schwarzenegger's 10-year-old affair and love child: How much would you put up with?By Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Love + Sex – Tue, May 17, 2011 7:49 PM EDT
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver arrive at an event in February 2011. This week, the former governor revealed that he had an affair and fathered a child with a member of their household staff 10 years ago. (Photo: Chelsea Lauren) When Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver split last week after 25 years of marriage, they didn't give a specific reason. The Governator, 63, seemed ready to return to movies and has a cartoon-and-comic book deal in the works. Shriver, 55, seemed to be mourning the career she gave up in order to be a politician's wife.Read More »from Arnold Schwarzenegger's 10-year-old affair and love child: How much would you put up with?
Shriver moved out of the family's Brentwood, California, home weeks before they announced their separation. She had been unhappy for years, some said; others speculated that Schwarzenegger's long history of womanizing had led to the split.
Turns out they were right: In a statement sent to the LA Times and the Associated Press on Monday night, the former governor admitted to fathering a child with a household staffer more than 10 years ago.
"After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago," Schwarzenegger said in his statement. "I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends
Dominique Strauss-Kahn indicted on 7 counts of sexual assaultBy Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Work + Money – Mon, May 16, 2011 10:18 PM EDT
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, head of the International Monetary Fund, is arraigned Monday, May 16, 2011, in Manhattan Criminal Court for allegedly attempting to rape a hotel maid on Saturday. (AP Photo: Shannon Stapleton, Pool)Officials on Thursday formally indicted banker and diplomat Dominique Strauss-Kahn on seven counts of sexual assault on a hotel maid. (You can read the indictment here.) Bail was set at $1 million, and he will be "confined to a New York City residence, where he will be monitored round the clock by a private security firm and an electronic bracelet," ABC News reported. He had been in isolation and on suicide watch at New York's Riker's Island jail.Read More »from Dominique Strauss-Kahn indicted on 7 counts of sexual assault
"We can't think of conditions more restrictive," said his lawyer, William Taylor.
When the reports came in earlier this week, it sounded like a dramatic episode of "Mad Men"-or maybe "Law and Order: SVU." A maid arrives to clean a luxury hotel suite, thinking that it's unoccupied, and the guest-the powerful head of a global financial giant-emerges from the bathroom naked. His nickname is "The Great Seducer," based on his decades-long reputation with women. He chases her through the suite, pulling her into a bedroom. She resists. There's a

"I've spoken with someone very close to the case, she is out of her mother's home. She's doing well,"
Lara Spencer reported on "Good Morning America" today. "The case is under investigation by CPS and we should have new details within a week. But the main thing here -- she's doing well."
The investigation began shortly after 34-year-old Kerry Campbell, a part-time aesthetician, went on "Good Morning America" with her daughter, Britney, to talk about using the anti-aging procedure on the third grader. The segment showed pictures of Campbell administering the shots herself.
Campbell, who boasted in a March interview with The Sun that she also takes Britney for body waxing in order to minimize future hair growth, told the British newspaper: "What I am doing for Britney now will help her become a star."

The investigation began shortly after 34-year-old Campbell, a part-time aesthetician, went on Good Morning America with her daughter, Britney, to talk about using the anti-aging procedure on the third grader. The segment showed pictures of Campbell administering the shots herself.
Spray tans, eye-brow waxing, fake teeth (called "flippers"), false eyelashes, and wigs are all par for the course in the "Toddlers and Tiaras" world of kiddie beauty pageants. But Botox?
Campbell told reporter Lara Spencer that Britney was the one who wanted to try the injections, but then explained that she brought it up herself and her third grader "was all for it."

The 'Slut Walk': Does the shock value undermine the message?By Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Work + Money – Thu, May 12, 2011 10:01 PM EDT

But last week, about two thousand women stripped down to their barely-theres and took to the streets of Boston for SlutWalk2011, to reclaim the word "slut" and promote awareness about rape and sexual assault.Read More »from The 'Slut Walk': Does the shock value undermine the message?
The SlutWalk movement started in Toronto in January, after a police officer at an Osgoode Hall Law School campus safety session suggested that women can avoid being sexually assault by not dressing like "a slut."
The officer was disciplined, but not removed from the force. The incident triggered protests in Canada and sparked satellite movements in other cities, including New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia; the Boston SlutWalk rally was organized by Nicole Ouimette and Katt Schott-Mancini, both of whom are sexual-assault survivors. "We were fed up how rape was being treated in our society and our culture," Ouimette told the Metro newspaper.
Schott-Mancini compared SlutWalk to the gay
Gas prices: Why are they so high? It's not just about oilBy Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Work + Money – Thu, May 12, 2011 6:37 PM EDT
The gas gauge in my car was hovering perilously close to "E" when I pulled into the cheapest gas station in my town the other day. About $59 later, I drove away with some major agita, remembering the times when I'd budget $15 a week to fill up my little car's tank because gas was about 98 cents a gallon.Read More »from Gas prices: Why are they so high? It's not just about oil
Those days are long gone.
Consumers can expect gas prices to drop nearly 50 cents a gallon in June-but that may be little consolation to those who face long commutes every day. According to AAA, the average price of gas in the Unites States is currently $3.98, up from $2.89 a year ago. Gas prices have risen 91 cents since January 2011. And, since they usually peak mid-Spring as refiners switch to a more expensive blend (one that doesn't evaporate as quickly during the summer), prices will probably go even higher before they start to fall.
What's causing the high prices? Turns out that the price of oil is only one factor (and that can be affected by a whole host of things, from
Hiring a babysitter? Ask these questions firstBy Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Work + Money – Wed, May 11, 2011 5:56 PM EDT
When I was a teenager, good recommendations and up-to-date First Aid and CPR certifications were more than enough to get a babysitting job. But now? Not anymore.
Whether you're looking for a teenage "mother's helper" to play with the kids for an hour after school while you cook dinner, or you want an adult to help you with the kids while you're at the office, these days you need to do more than grab a scrap of paper pinned to a bulletin board at the supermarket. There are services like Care.com and SitterCity.com that screen caregivers and allow you to search for those in your area, but once you've found a few prospective babysitters, you still have to interview them yourself. Sittercity.com has a great checklist of questions to ask; here are the 20 we think are most important:
- Why do you want to babysit? "Because I need money" may be an honest answer, but it's not a good one. Ideally, the candidate will say that he or she enjoys working with children.
- What experience
Do little girls really need Shape-up toning sneakers?By Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Healthy Living – Tue, May 10, 2011 11:54 PM EDT
Sketchers is marketing their new Shape-up toning shoes to girls. (Photo: Sketchers.com)Studies already show that trendy toning shoes like Skechers Shape-ups-which have rounded or unstable soles that are supposed to help the wearer burn more calories by increasing "muscle activation"-don't really work. You might feel a bit of a burn while your body adjusts to your wonky balance, but you don't burn many more calories and you don't get more exercise just by wearing them.Read More »from Do little girls really need Shape-up toning sneakers?
But Skechers is still marketing the same type of toning shoe-and the same fitness claims. This time, however, they're not targeting women who want to look like Kim Kardashian in a sexy Super Bowl ad. They're targeting little girls.
The upbeat, animated commercials are airing on kid-centered TV stations such as Nickelodeon and the Cartoon Network. They show slim, confident girls rocking out in their Shape-ups and being followed around by surly, slack-jawed boys dressed up in junk-food costumes.
We're not sure what message they're trying to send. Shape-ups make hot dogs and soda unappealing? Toning shoes
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver split: Were politics to blame?By Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Love + Sex – Tue, May 10, 2011 7:40 PM EDT

(Photo by Chelsea Lauren/FilmMagic/Getty Images) When Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger announced today that they were separating after 25 years of marriage, some wondered if politics had anything to do with it-not just because the two are firmly planted on opposite sides of the political spectrum, but because of the complications that come with being the wife of a famous politician.Read More »from Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver split: Were politics to blame?
Michelle Obama put her legal career on hold to support her husband in his efforts, and has been candid about the compromises she made in her personal and family life in order to be first lady. Hillary Rodham Clinton put her own political aspirations on hold-some might say unsuccessfully-while her husband rose through the political ranks. The stresses of political life led Betty Ford and Kitty Dukakis down the road to addiction. Would it be a surprise if politics were the home wrecker here?
Shriver is no stranger to life in the political limelight: Her mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, founded the Special Olympics and was the sister of former U.S.

Russia: Let the (other) games begin in Sochi
Sochi, Russia, will host the 2014 Winter Olympics, and as a warm-up to that, it is hosting World Cup events. Christopher Reynolds, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times Travel section, is in Sochi for a preview of the venue of the Winter Games. That may have you scratching your head because Sochi in southwestern Russia is best known as a warm-weather resort. But look past the mineral springs to the Caucasus Mountains, where the winter events will take place. Although snow has been light so far this winter, the investment in the facilities and infrastructure has not: The Moscow Times reported Sunday that the cost so far is $50 billion, making these the most expensive Games in history.

New Adventures in the Pacific Northwest
Running north to south along the western edge of Washington's hard-scrabble Cascade Mountains, four-wheelers can find some of the most interesting trails in the Pacific Northwest. Although not typically considered a hot spot for four-wheeling, Washington offers a tremendous variety of terrain that can range from the mild to the extreme. And in this part of the country, where rain is nearly a daily occurrence, the wetter it gets, the more challenging the trails become.
Looking to introduce a group of seasoned four-wheelers to some of the wonders of Washington 'wheeling, Scott Frary of Tractech (Detroit Locker) recently laid out a week-long series of day-trips to some of the area's best trail systems. Comprising this group of intrepid four-wheelers were a number of regional enthusiasts, as well as a handful of industry notables, including Jerrod Prindle of Advanced Frame Works, Larry Trim of Trail Ready, Keith Hart of the Gear Centre, and Trent McGee of Superlift TV. With trail guidance coming from the local four-wheeling gurus at S&N Fabrication, the nearly all-Jeep squad hit the trail early Monday morning and never looked back.
Day One: Elbe Hills
Lying due west of the Mt. Ranier National Park, Elbe Hills is a perfect introduction to Washington four-wheeling. We found lots of rocks, pools of mud, and winding, slippery trails. For anyone accustomed to crawling slowly over rocks with lots of traction and low gearing, these trails were a rude awakening. Controlled horsepower is what was required. Forward momentum was absolutely essential to make it through most of the obstacles. And if you lost it, you were left with little choice other than to slide back down and try again. Surprisingly, there was no damage done the first day, and everyone made it back into town under their own power.
Day Two: Evan's Creek
After their initial break-in period, the crew was ready to up the ante a bit. Evan's Creek is another beautiful OHV area, but its trail system is comprised of terrain that will challenge even the most foolhardy. It consists largely of tight, hairpin turns that wind sharply back and forth through heavily wooded forest. Deep, sloppy mud on badly rutted trails was a constant this day - to say nothing of the rocks and tree stumps that had to be traversed. Again, steering skills were really put to the test. This area is definitely designed for the short-wheelbase contingent. For fullsize rigs, it would be sheer carnage.

I'm with ERIE
Career tuba player who's played for presidents
March 5, 2010
Joanna Hersey, professional tuba player
Customer with J. Parks Mullis Insurance Agency
Hometown: Right now, Laurinburg, N.C.
A career musician: Tubist Joanna Hersey released her first solo album, O quam mirabilis, earlier this year. The recording, which features music by women composers, is just the latest step in a noteworthy career.
Why tuba (no, seriously—WHY?): As an 8th grader in rural Vermont, Hersey wanted to learn violin, but there were no school orchestras nearby. She was asked to choose a band instrument.
"The teacher offered me the chance to play a sousaphone that wasn't being used. This seemed like a great solution because… I didn't know what a sousaphone was. I figured it must be like a flutaphone, so I accepted, thinking I'd become a flute player. Imagine my surprise when I saw the banged-up sousaphone: white, plastic and bumpy."
Her first puff: "I took up a large breath and let go with all my might, a large blast rang through the building, students in class looked wildly over their shoulders in alarm—and I had begun to play the tuba."
Degrees: Hersey earned a master's of music in tuba performance from the New England Conservatory of Music and a doctorate in musical arts in tuba performance from the Hartt School in Connecticut.
Current gig: Assistant professor of Low Brass at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.
POTUS notice: As principal tubist with the United States Coast Guard Band—a position she won at age 19—Hersey performed for Presidents George Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.
In good company: In her freelance career, Hersey has performed with artists such as Placido Domingo, Roberta Flack, Arlo Guthrie and Michael Bolton. She's also appeared on The Today Show and Good Morning America.
Why ERIE: When Hersey moved south three years ago, ERIE was recommended by "a wonderful real estate agent. She said James Parks Mullis [in Laurinburg, N.C.] was a great person for insurance. And she was right! Now I see him all around town, in church and other places. It's a lovely small town."

- Have something to chew and hold in your mouth.
- Satisfy cravings with nice flavors instead of cigarettes.
Things to Consider:
Cravings and When to Eat
- Always eat three meals a day, including breakfast. If you skip a meal, you may become too hungry, which makes it hard to fight the urge to smoke.
- If you get hungry, have healthy, low-calorie snacks between meals.
- Crunchy or chewy snacks can help ward off emergency urges.

FAT GREASY ITALIAN doesn't pay attention to your order – drove in from another state, after "Calling him" on not wanting 3 SUBS, only 2; he goes yes, yes, okay what else.
Of course I wanted those tasty FRIED MUSHROOMS, you just can't get them anywhere else on the road, quick easy and tasty as Subby's, right? Expensive!Even a small order, but ran to 5/3 Bank came back with a fresh $20 two subs, mushrooms & Cranberry grape Ocean Spray, $15 sounded right. THEN I LOOK DOWN TO SEE SUB PAR FRENCH FRIES; those I can get anywhere; he explained I ordered these no doubt, I explained YOU THOUGHT I ORDERED 3 when I ordered 2! Yeah yeah, but you definitely ordered fries. Fries are cheaper than Mushrooms, so the switch would have taken a couple of minutes for "customer satisfaction" did I mention he got the order wrong in the first place? Fat tub of goo. Very disappointed; on the road again, for several hours, with french fries that could have be obtained at 20 different locations off the highway! tsk tsk fat man, shame on you

Fantastic Salon – I have been a client of this Salon for alomost one year and have always had fantastic service and results. The stylest I see is Dawn and she is amazing, I always walk out feeling fantasitc and my hair always looks great. She does my hair so well before I go back home im just going in for her to style it. Ive also had facials there and they have been equally as good. This salon is excellent and I wouldnt go anywhere else!
Worst Haircut I ever received in my life – The haircut I received in March was not what I wanted done to my hair at all. She did my hair the way she wanted to do it, not the way I wanted it done. I am 27 years old and left there looking like a 12 year old. Today I went to Michael's salon and spa and received a great haircut that I was very happy with and it costed less. The hairstylist I had at Michael's told me that whoever cut my hair at tavernier's put layers in it on 1 side but didn't layer the other side, so that's why it looked so bad. It had no shape to it at all. Overall, very, very upset about it.

Artist Biographies
Select a letter below to see the biographies for artists
whose last names start with that letter.
Kahlo, Frida
(Mexico, 1907-1954)
Kahlo was a self-taught artist who worked feverishly at her painting. She painted works that often were psychologically mysterious, and she almost always worked with figures. Among her more than two hundred paintings are many self-portraits. Kahlo's personal expressiveness, psychological intuition, and artistic ability have placed her among Mexico's more able artists.
Kahn, Louis I.
(United States, 1901-1974)
Kahn was an admirer of other architects, but devised his own original solutions to architectural problems One of his finest designs was the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas The main entrance is a tree-filled patio flanked by two open arched vaults and reflecting pools Natural light is admitted through long slits located in the vaults The light is diffused inside by a series of adjustable panels that deflect light Designed to hold works of art, the structure is a work of art itself
Kammeraad, Lori
(United States, 20th century)
Kammeraad's textiles are created with her own custom-dyed wool that she weaves into abstract designs. Her artworks are often created for specific interior spaces, at the request of individuals or interior designers.
Kandinsky, Wassily
(Russia, 1866-1944)
Kandinsky was born in Moscow, but attended art school in Munich. He was also trained as a musician and often titled his paintings with musical terminology. The artist's early works are quite abstract, but many forms are still recognizable. Gradually, he simplified his technique until only shape, color and line were left. His influence became very strong in the Abstract Expressionist movement, and he is credited with creating the first completely nonobjective painting.
Kelly, Ellsworth
(United States, b.1923)
Ellsworth Kelly studied in Paris with the Constructionists, artists who worked abstractly with basic geometric shapes. Some of his designs have only two intense colors and several large flat shapes. Large is an apt word because often his designs are mural-sized (over 9 feet high and about 20 feet wide). He often uses acrylic paints to attain the hard, perfect edges of his shapes. Such precision is essential to the concept and style of Hard-Edge painting.
Kienholz, Edward
(United States, 1927-1994)
Kienholz learned carpentry, plumbing, and engineering as a young boy on his family's farm in Washington State, and worked with his hands throughout his life. He used the three-dimensional space of his stage-like environments to draw us into his shockingly personal dramas, and included real objects in his constructions to create poignant scenes. Despite his departure from exact reality, he communicates his emotions quite strongly.
Kimewon, Rose Williams
(Canada, 20th century)
Kimewon, an Ottowa North American Indian, is credited with leading the revival of porcupine quill box making. She developed a unique tufting technique for lids that are decorated with images of Canadian animals or with abstract star designs.
Kiosai, Kawanabe
(Japan, 1831-1899)
Kiosai was a master of ink and brush painting. He is known for his unusual technique of painting on screens prepared with backgrounds of powdered gold. His work reflects a sensitive use of light and dark values and lively asymmetrical compositions.
Kirchner, Ernst Ludwig
(Germany, 1880-1938)
Kirchner was the early leader of Die BrŸcke, a small brotherhood of artists who vehemently rejected academic training in art and all traditional forms of expression. Kirchner insisted that 'art depends on inspiration and not on technique.' In his painting, The Street, the tension and agitation of the street are expressed by sharp, angular shapes and vivid colors. There is a feeling of isolation and loneliness despite the crowded conditions.
Klee, Paul
(Switzerland/Germany, 1879-1940)
Klee was a Swiss-born artist who spent most of his life in Germany. He joined a band called De Blau Reiter (The Blue Rider), an Expressionist group of strong individual artists who exerted a powerful influence on twentieth-century art. Always interested in children's art, he developed a style that combined his personal wit with a child-like vision of the mysteries of life. Most of his work has a happy quality that elicits questions but provides no answers.
Kleepsies, Keith
(United States, 20th century)
Kleepsies is a versatile artist whose work is often marked by humor and irony. In addition to creating murals and environmental sculpture, he works on a variety of graphic design projects for publications and television.
Kline, Franz
(United States, 1910-1962)
In his early work, Kline painted the buildings and people of New York in a representational style. Later on, he adopted a vigorous, slashing form of abstraction. At first, his forms were derived from urban structures. But soon he expressed himself freely without relying on representative subject matter. In one series of works, Kline found he needed larger-sized canvases and limited his palette to black and white to convey the energy of contemporary city life.
Kollwitz, Kathe
(Germany, 1867-1945)
Kollwitz was one of the most powerfully emotional artists of the twentieth century. Her etchings, woodcuts, lithographs, and drawings express her feelings about old age, hard work, war, motherhood, and death. The artist used very little detail in her works, emphasizing instead the broad planes and the stark, enduring drama of the human face.
Krasner, Lee
(United States, 1908-1984)
Lee Krasner was a powerful influence in the development of Abstract Expressionism, although she maintained her independence on the fringes of the movement. She progressed through realism and small abstractions, and eventually turned to much larger canvases to fully contain her expressions. She began creating collages that consisted of torn up paintings in an attempt to create dynamic new images. The resulting surfaces are rich in texture, color, and movement. With each occasional change in style, she seemed to produce stronger statements.
Kruger, Barbara
(United States, b.1945)
Barbara Kruger typically prints ambiguous statements over familiar imagery as a means of questioning the anonymous authoritarian voice in countless media and advertising campaigns. Her seemingly amusing juxtapositions are also alarming. They jolt us into recognizing how easily we accept these seductive messages, which make us want, buy, or believe in nearly anything without a second thought. She is extremely skilled at criticizing the media's ability to manipulate an unthinking public.
Kuhn, Walt
(United States, 1880-1949)
Although Walt Kuhn was one of the organizers of the Armory Show, an exhibit that opened American eyes to the European art scene, he was unable to change his style to adapt to modern Abstractionism. He worked realistically, painting dramatic studies of clowns and circus performers. He had worked in circuses himself and painted his subjects with knowledge and compassion. His paintings captured the continuing sense of drama in which they lived and worked.

Blue Suede Shoes are back; ASOS, Clarks Originals, John Rocha and more
Good news for Elvis, it appears that blue suede shoes (and leather ones too) are enjoying a bit of a mini revival. I saw that Clarks had added navy to its range of classics this year and they are not alone. You can also buy blue suede and leather brogues and loafers too.
Of course you have to be a little careful about what you wear them with – especially if the shoes are more navy than blue. They work well with jeans, chinos and grey suit trousers, but black trousers are obviously a no.
Here is a selection that caught our eye.
John Rocha Blue Brogues £70
These are very classy. Just reduced, and available in Debenhams, they are classic in every way apart from the navy finish. Debenhams
