Have you ever put on an outfit and asked a friend if it was "guy hot" or "girl hot"? Do you find yourself dressing more imaginatively for a ladies' dinner than a date with your dude? Leandra Medine, famous for her unhindered love of harem pants, voluminous pleating, and what she calls "offensive outerwear," most certainly does. "Fashion has always been about pleasing women," she says. "It just hasn't been identified as man-repelling, which is kind of liberating." We couldn't agree more. We grabbed a couch in the middle of the chaos of fashion week at Lincoln Center and our host, Jessica Stam, talked to Leandra about what sorts of trends to expect next spring (lots of mid-length skirts over pants), how her blog came about (a revelation at Topshop!), and what fashion men absolutely HATE (and why we shouldn't care!).

Coronary artery disease begins in your teens. The walls of your coronary arteries are like hollow tubes. They start out smooth and elastic.
By the time you are in your teens, they begin to show traces of fat in them. Over time, the fat builds up, causing injury to the walls. Risk factors such as those listed above make matters worse.
In a bid to heal itself, your body's cells release chemicals that make the walls sticky. Substances traveling through your blood vessels -- inflammatory cells, proteins, calcium and more -- begin to stick to the walls.
They combine with fat and form plaque. This clogging substance causes the arteries to narrow.
In some cases, blood platelets, which are designed to help clotting, come to the area and form blood clots. These clots may also block blood flow to the heart.

"The Easy Stop on the Road" Celebrates First Year of Green Program
ROCKVILLE, Md., Feb. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Econo Lodge hotels, the brand known as the Easy Stop on the Road, will celebrate the one year mark of their Room to be Green program. A first of its kind initiative executed across the entire lodging portfolio, Room to be Green is designed to reduce environmental impact and waste, meet the changing expectations of today's environmentally conscious guests and potentially lower operational expenses, (including energy and water costs) at the property level.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131015/NE98133LOGO-e)
The Econo Lodge brand, which is fully franchised by Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH), one of the world's largest hotel companies, is a leader among economy hotel brands for implementing mandatory Green initiatives throughout all its properties. As a result of its program, in the past year more than 830 Econo Lodge hotels helped reduce annual water usage by an estimated six million gallons and energy usage by and estimated twelve million kWh. Additionally, in tandem with American Forests, an organization dedicated to the protection and restoration of forests around the world, Econo Lodge planted one tree for each Econo Lodge currently opened.
"One year ago, this was just an idea and an announcement. I am so energized by the enthusiasm with which Econo Lodge operators have rallied around our Room to be Green project as we celebrate this brand milestone," said Craig Mustard, head of domestic brand management for Econo Lodge. "Their actions demonstrate that caring for the environment can be done at any level. You just have to start somewhere and we are eager to continue building on this program moving forward."
The Econo Lodge brand required every hotel to implement the Room to be Green program by Dec. 31, 2013. The program outlines three mandatory elements of its initiative:
"We take great pride in knowing that we are doing what we can to make a difference in our communities and in the environment," said Don Neuharth, owner of the Econo Lodge hotel in Osage Beach, Missouri. "By taking these small steps, Econo Lodge can make a real difference and is setting great examples for others."
In addition, the Room to be Green program offers extended Green options that each property may undertake, such as use of ozone washing machines, light dimmers, double-pained or thermapane windows, and rain water collection systems for exterior irrigation.

Children donned red firefighter hats, threw baseballs at a dunk tank and got a close-up look at police gear in the Target parking lot at the Oxford Exchange. The evening was part of a nationwide event called National Night Out, which started in 1984 as a way to promote partnerships between law enforcement and the public, according to the National Association of Town Watch website.
Oxford police Chief Bill Partridge said it's a way for his officers to connect with the community.
"It's a positive thing for children and public safety to see that we're not the bad guys," Partridge said.
John Culpepper, assets protection team leader at Target, said this was the first year his store got involved in National Night Out and is hoping to make it a yearly event. Culpepper said he signed up for the event online and called Oxford police, firefighters and the Calhoun County Emergency Management Agency to make sure they were on board. Culpepper said the goal was to let the public know that these agencies were "there to provide a service" and that they were approachable.
Oxford fire Assistant Chief Ben Stewart said his firefighters are always open for an opportunity to show people what they do. Stewart said Oxford's fire department uses nights like Tuesday to discuss fire prevention techniques and give insight into its daily tasks, such as fire hydrant testing and business inspections.
"We do a lot of other things other than respond to calls," Stewart said.
Stewart said firefighters planned to teach children and families about evacuation routes in their homes, so they could "plan for the worst time."
Tuesday night was a good chance, Stewart said, for children to see that underneath all the firefighter gear was a person they can trust.
"Some of the children are afraid of firemen when they see us dressed up. If they know that we're just a person underneath the mask … they'll not run from us and come to us if the need ever arises," he said.
Grace Jancsek said she read about the event on Facebook and decided to bring her three children and two nieces to meet the local agencies.
"We have two boys and they love firetrucks and ambulances and our daughter likes them too," Jancsek said. "It's very entertaining for the kids."
The mother said she frequently discusses fire safety and fire prevention with her kids.
Annabelle Jancsek, 7, said she enjoyed the dunk tank and seeing the inside of the firetruck.
"It was really cool. It had seats with a lot of buckles on it and some hoses," she said with a smile while wearing a red "Fire Chief" hat.
Jordan Swafford said she felt National Night Out was a great event for the community to promote public safety awareness and fun for local kids.
Swafford's 3-year-old son, Jayden, gets excited every time he sees a fire truck, the mother said.
"He doesn't ever get to see (a firetruck) like this, so for them to come up here and let him crawl around in there it's really great," she said.

When it comes to pool cue chalk, there are only a couple of names that are really well known across the board – Master Chalk and Silver Cup Chalk. Chalk seems to be one of the most polarizing products we sell. People who use Master refuse to use Silver Cup and vice versa.
From a popularity perspective, there is only one true champion. In 2008, we saw Master Chalk fly off the shelves at a rate of almost 3 to 1 in comparison to Silver Cup and that's not even figuring in our special PoolDawg Master Chalk! Naturally, we like 'em both, but if you're looking for the people's choice when it comes to billiards chalk, grab a box of Masters.

Lache Seastrunk rushed for 178 yards, including diving in to complete a 76-yard touchdown run after cramping up, and Florence passed for 296 yards to lead Baylor past Oklahoma State(No. 23 BCS, No. 24 AP) 41-34.
Oklahoma State had cut Baylor's lead to 34-27 when Seastrunk broke free up the middle on a play that looked similar to his 80-yard touchdown that sealed an upset win over Kansas State on Nov. 17.
Seastrunk raced past three Cowboys defenders before he began to pull up about 25 yards short of the end zone. After stumbling just past the goal line, Seastrunk remained on the ground for a couple of minutes before limping off the field.
Bears coach Art Briles said Seastrunk experienced leg cramps on his last carry of the game.
"We've been harping on him about finishing," Florence said. "For someone to cramp and pull up like that, that's inspiring. He's an outstanding player."
Baylor (7-5, 4-5 Big 12) has won at least seven games in three straight seasons -- the first time the Bears have done that since 1949-51.
After Baylor lost at Oklahoma on Nov. 10, it didn't appear a third straight bowl game was in Baylor's future.
The Bears pulled off a 52-24 upset over Kansas State, which took over the No. 1 spot in the BCS rankings before traveling to Waco, and then rallied from an early two-touchdown deficit to win in overtime against Texas Tech.
Baylor finished off its regular season by beating Oklahoma State for only the second time in their last 17 meetings.
"The food is going to taste good for the next three weeks," Briles said. "The guys feel good about the way they finished the season."

Best of Chi – Cork & Kerry won for best dart board in Chicago! Check out what else won for best of Chi-Town with 1035 Kiss Fm! For more info check out the 1035 Kiss Fm website!
best home town pub on the southside – the best irish home pub since ireland just like back in the country, we all gather to talk laugh and drink best time to go on south side irish parade home of the real Irish of chicago we come the windy city and were irish to the core from bridgeport to beverly midway to south shore were the south side irish mayor daly lived there too not wimpy son but the man him self
Great place to Go – I'Ve been going to Cork & Kerry for awhile and I always have a good time. Until I went to a publisity night with Miller Beer. One of the guys who worked for Miller I think his name was Scott and boy does he make promises that if I showed him my chest he would give me prizes. I was so insulted that going to a neighborhood bar and this happens I will not be going back there again!!!!
not for everybody – beer garden is nice but inside is too small and crowded. not really a neighborhood bar and prices are kinda steep. virtually no parking available. too many other nice places on western ave to have a drink and meet people at to give this place much attention.
Friendly Irish-flavored tap on the South Side. – Regular folks settle into high-backed chairs at this woody, memorabilia-laden space. Stained-glass windows set a moody, almost upscale tone, while entertaining artifacts, ranging from early Soldier Field relics to outdated matchbooks, spark conversation among bar newbies and boisterous regulars. Outdoors, a multilevel beer garden decked with flowers and antique odds-and-ends makes revelers all but forget the bustling surroundings. Loads of brew selections, including 20 taps and at least as many bottles, cater to the "won't be caught without a beer in hand" crowd. Chatty professionals wind down the workweek with whiskey served neat and Black and Tans.
Come for the beergarten – Nothing like a Saturday or Sunday afternoon watching baseball or football on one of the many tvs in the beergarten. Good drinks and good service along with a wonderful atmosphere make for a great time.
Santa says 'Oh Yeah!' – Cork 'N Kerry is great, especially in the summer/fall with it's beer garden. However, I find it most fun to visit on the second Saturday in December, when our little Santa Crawl hits Western. Unfortunately Cork is so late in the crawl that I often forget being there. (Except for the time I walked into the women's room on accident, good thing I had a costume on).

Description: Accounting occupies a fundamental role in the allocation of scarce resources in our economy. The purpose of this foundations course is to provide you with an introduction to financial and managerial accounting. You will learn how to read and interpret financial statements and how net income is determined. (The course adopts the perspective of a user, not of a preparer.) Additionally, the theories underlying those statements will be introduced. Topics that involve the planning and control of a firm's operations, the impact of accounting information on the stock market, and the role of the accounting profession in the economic events of the past several years, will be discussed. The challenges faced by the accounting profession are many as the economy evolves from one based on production to one based on information.
Note: This course incorporates elements of both financial and managerial accounting (ACC 311 and ACC 312). It is designed for people who must know how to read accounting statements or manage people who produce them; it is not designed for those who must produce accounting statements as part of their job. (ACC 311 is designed for that and can form part of a business major.)
This section of ACC 310F is a semester-based online course, with no face-to-face meetings.
Students are required to take two, scheduled proctored exams in a face-to-face setting, scheduled for October 17 and December 5. There may be additional proctoring fees. Students are responsible for securing an authorized proctor. Students in foreign countries and rural U.S. locations far from college testing centers must ensure they will be able to arrange for proctoring before registering for the course.
This course may be used to fulfill a requirement for the Business Foundations Certificate program.
Official UT Course Description: An introduction to financial and managerial accounting, with emphasis on the content, interpretation, and uses of accounting reports. Discussion of the determination and reporting of net income and financial position, and the theories underlying business financial statements; consideration of managerial accounting topics designed to extend the student's knowledge to the planning and controlling of the operations of the firm.
Prerequisites: None.

1838 Napoleon Ave, New Orleans, LA | Directions 7011529.929318 -90.102577
Wed-Fri 11:30am-2pm; Mon-Sat 5pm-"until"
Neighborhoods: Uptown, Uptown - Carrollton
New Orleans has a huge Italian-American tradition built into it right along creole, and if you have any doubt about this hasten to Pascal's Manale. It's a NOLA institution for its shrimp pasta, pan roasts, and wonderfully rich and spicy red-sauce dishes. The atmosophere and decor are about as old-school as it gets.
Does not disappoint – Amazing barbecued shrimp, oysters and shrimp pasta. I have never ordered anything I didn't like at this restaurant. It is a Louisiana legend for good reason. The servers are friendly, and the food is authentic Louisiana cuisine.
Famous but the food's not that great. – I should have ordered the famous barbecue shrimp, so I won't be too hard on Pascal Manale.
But the fish and pasta I ordered were terribly bland.
don't waste your time – I live in New Orleans and I won't waste my time at this restaurant. There is nothing special about the food and the owners blatent disregard for the guest is the only thing that sets them apart. It's New Orleans - there's no shortage of places to get oysters and BBQ shrimp (think Mr. B's) and there's also no shortage of great restaurants that know how to treat their customers. The service is truly horrible and the owners and managers could care less. Mark this off your list.
It's all about the oysters, baby! – Louisiana oysters are the name of the game, and the man you want to see is Thomas. Bob and Mark, the owners, know where to get the best, tastiest, freshest oysters around and Thomas serves them up with giant slice of larger-than-life, southern hospitality at it's finest. He's got the best stories and he takes care of you, so remember to take care of him. Weather you like 'em small or big he'll hook you up. They also grill these tasty shelled morsels a-la bienville or rockafella'. Not to mention the barbecued shrimp...
AWESOME ! – This is one of the best restaurants you will ever eat at......the history to this place is amazing.
Historic birthplace of classic barbecue shrimp serves well-worn Italian steakhouse staples in a nostalgic, neighborhood-joint setting. – The Scene
From decor to menu, Pascal's nostalgically trades on its past. Steady tourist traffic and neighborhood regulars keep the aging dining rooms (formal, casual and private) bustling. For old-schoolers, the restaurant's worn vibe proves comforting; to newcomers, it feels like a borrowed family tradition.
The Food
Universally considered the birthplace of New Orleans barbecue shrimp, Pascal's still delivers a serviceable version of this butter-rich sauteed (not smoked) dish. About a dozen super-jumbo barbecue shrimp arrive in a plain white bowl and float in an inch of butter spiked with garlic and black pepper. The rest of the Italian steakhouse menu is heavy on fried and cheesy classics. A promising oyster, shrimp and crab "pan roast" arrives light on the seafood and heavy on creamy bread-crumb binder. Tender scallops of veal parmigiana are smothered under a thick layer of rubbery mozzarella. Rich, tangy Key lime pie is the sweet list standout.
FUN FUN FUN!!!! – This is absoultly my favorite restaurant in N.O. The only problem I have is that I get full before I can eat all that I want to eat. We always start with raw oysters from the oyster bar, which is a blast!!! Then if the place is really packed, we order another drink and stand around to visit with friends. We all have our favorites. Mine is to start out with Escargo, then the Greek Salad (which I share with my husband), then the best in the world Barbque Shrimp!!!! If you are not just about to POP, try the pecan pie for desert. I have told many of my friends about this restaurant and now they also go there whenever they are in town.
LOVE IT OR HATE IT... – On our first trip to this restaurant we had a 2 year old in tow, and they were obviously not anxious to seat us, and we eventually left. I was stilll curious because it is an intriguing place. So against my firm principals on not rewarding poor service, I have returned twice on subsequent visits, and quite enjoyed it. No - the "barbequed" shrimp are not smothered in BBQ sauce, and the "heads on" presentation might be intimidating and possibly unappetizing to someone who did not realize that shrimp actually have heads (and eyes, and long long whiskers). This place is not a culinary superstar, but is a completely worthwhile and enjoyable experience.

Neighborhoods: Squirrel Hill North
This is the place to buy your fine timepiece - don't waste your time by going anywhere else. – I've been waiting 7 years to augment my watch collection, and in November 2006 decided to take the steps necessary to save the funds to purchase an IWC piece. I'd browsed in Orr's several times during the past few years, but had never been in buy-mode. Nonetheless, the staff was always interested, respectful and accommodating. Despite not buying on those occasions, I always felt like I would be welcomed back...either to browse (or hopefully for Orr's) to buy. Last Friday I returned to Orr's for the first time since last November. I spoke with the owner, the watch dept. manager and one of his sales consultants. I asked for a quote, received a fair price, and said I would be back this week after crunching the numbers. Yesterday I returned to Orr's, found only one of my previous three contacts there (the watch dept manager). After a few minutes of casual conversation and witty banter, I said I was ready to buy, and the manager called the owner to confirm last week's quote. It was confirmed, another consultant processed the transaction, and I had my new timepiece.
What characterized ALL of my interactions with Orr's was the staff's maintaining a high level of respect and interest in my presence, without ever pressuring me to make a purchase OR resorting to the fake snobbery so often seen in the Pittsburgh retail high-end watch market.
Orr's doesn't know how much money I make or don't make, or what my profession or personal life entails. They did correctly assume that I'm a watch aficionado, that I have tastes that run towards the lines they sell, and that if I was interested in adding to my collection, they would do whatever it took to win my business. The ONLY thing missing after I bought a $4000 timepiece was a snifter of cognac or a glass of scotch, but it was starting to rain and I was in a suit, without an umbrella, and still had to get back to my car - a Ford!
Thanks, Orr's. I'll be back, and I'll send all the referrals I can to you.
Canadian Diamonds – This was the only store in Pittsburgh I found that had experience with Canadian diamonds. When I asked about them at other places, most people were rude or had no clue what I was talking about. Orr's was very welcoming and helpful. Brenna put in extra effort for us.

Construction is underway for a biomass heating plant that will use wood chips and forest waste to replace 90 percent of the 1.1 million gallons of heating oil used by Colby each year. Site work began in December for the $11.25-million project that will install twin 400-horsepower biomass-fueled boilers to produce steam used for heat, hot water, cooking, and electrical cogeneration.
The plant will burn low-grade forest waste and debris including bark and treetops. Plans are for biomass to come from sustainable forest operations within a 50-mile radius. The conversion will replace up to a million gallons of oil per year, and estimates of oil and biomass prices suggest the project should payfor itself in six to 10 years, according to Director of Physical Plant Patricia Murphy.
Since biomass is considered carbon lean if not neutral, carbon emissions from Colby's steam plant will decrease about 90 percent, Murphy said. The project will put the College well down the path toward carbon neutrality, which it intends to achieve by 2015.
The steam plant, which will keep the oil-fired boilers on line for peak heating periods and backup, will continue to employ a cogeneration turbine that supplies 10 percent of Colby's electricity needs.
Murphy and project manager Assistant Director of Physical Plant Paul "Gus" Libby, both engineers, did extensive research into the experience of early biomass adopters. They worked with a firm that designed a system using a gasification combustion process. The result will be emissions that meet or exceed established regulations and ash that should be suitable for composting or agricultural use.

Why doesn't the Doctor make a backup of himself? Message Board

Return to Star Trek Voyager book reviews
The Doctor is always whining about being irretrievably lost. If that's the case, why doesn't he make a backup of himself? If they don't have enough space on Voyager's hard drive, why not delete some of B'nana's monster fighting programs? Do you think it's credible that the Doctor could be at risk, since he's a computer program that can be saved?

Kenai Peninsula
The Kenai Peninsula, south of Anchorage, is a popular excursion and holiday destination. The larger settlements on the peninsula - Homer, Seward and Kenai, the chief town, are easily accessible on Highway 1 or 9; and Seward, a fishing port, is also the terminus of the Alaska Railroad. Seward is an excellent base for excursions into Kenai Fjords National Park. With its glaciers and fjords, the scenery of this National Park, centred on the Harding Icefield, is reminiscent of the west coast of Norway; there is a car accessible road to the Exit Glacier. Here birdwatchers will be able to observe many species of birds. Highway 1 ends in the fishing village of Homer, a popular resort for visitors with its comparatively mild climate and beautiful situation on Kachemak Bay (Pratt Museum, with exhibits illustrating the culture of the Eskimos, Aleuts and early Russian settlers; camping, fishing, boat trips).

She acts innocent and soft spoken on camera, but this girl is a bustling ball of energy in the club. Watching her get wild on the dance floor, you would never expect that she could play so innocently. You get glimmers of her personality watching her peel off her teal tank top. Her personality is not the only thing you get a chance to see when her tank top comes off.
They have been best friends for longer than they can remember. It was about time they finally hooked up. Tepid at first they eventually lightened up and gave each other a quick kiss. After so many years of friendship, that little act must have made them horny. Helping each other out of their shirts they quickly undressed. We have to say that seeing these girls naked was the highlight of this night.
We found Lexi in Las Vegas trying to pick up girls. When she spotted us she quickly changed her target, and managed to charm us back to her hotel room. We have to say we are glad she did! We were fortunate enough to spend some quality private time with this gorgeous blonde. She was eager to share her best features with us. She slipped off her sexy black dress to reveal the greatest pair of boobs we had ever seen.
This blonde bombshell was giving us her best bedroom eyes all night. Kayla finally had us all to herself and could not wait to capitalize on the opportunity. This girl is an English major at heart, and any good writer will tell you it is better to show than tell. Luckily for us Kayla lives by this advice. When we asked her what she would do for a Girls Gone Wild trucker hat she immediately pulled down her blouse and showed us her boobs.
Lauren and her friends were out living it up during spring break, when they happened across the GGW bus. They knew that no spring break trip would be complete unless they managed to get on Girls Gone Wild. As soon as they got on the bus they were getting topless. Lauren was saying she only liked boys, but the evidence points to the contrary. She seemed more than happy to lick and suck on her friend's perfect boobs.
"The best tits" in town is a bold claim to make. We have seen some amazing breast here while we were around filming spring break. Surreptitiously she removed her bra and freed her beautiful breast from their cotton confines. This is where we get our first glimpse of how great her figure truly is. We begin to see she has something special to bring to the table, and it was not just talk. This girl just might have what it takes to take the title of the best tits in town.
Birthday girl had a sash on, and she was with her best friend celebrating the all-important 21st. The two got pretty wild when the MC invited them on the stage to dance for beads. Before we knew it, the curly haired brunette girl started flashing her tits to the crowd. The birthday girl got into the heat of the moment and started kissing her friend.

One of four U.S. Army All-Americans at Don Bosco, Carroo emerged as one of the nation's top wideouts. He notched 77 catches, 1,559 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns since the start of his junior year, and helped lead the Ironmen to 46 consecutive wins.Read More Below
Like many eighth graders growing up in Plainfield, N.J., Leonte Carroo came to idolize Don Bosco Prep. He watched Ironmen football regularly on MSG Varsity, cheering as they dominated opponent after opponent. Star players became icons: Ryan Grant, Corey Wootton and Brian Toal -- all current members of NFL rosters -- once played for the program.
By the time his freshman year rolled around, the sprinter-turned-receiver had no doubt in his mind: He wanted to play for the maroon and white.
"I told my mom I would love to go to a school like that," Carroo said. "From there, it was history."
Four years later, Carroo has exceeded all expectations. The 6-foot-1, 205-pounder amassed 77 receptions, 1,559 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns since the onset of his junior season.
"Leonte has another gear," said coach Greg Toal. "He's one of those guys that can separate and really stretch the field vertically."
Of course, he's just part of Bosco's football powerhouse, a well-oiled machine that seemingly churns out blue-chip prospects. This year alone, four seniors participated in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl -- Carroo, defensive end Darius Hamilton, safety Elijah Shumate and cornerback Yuri Wright -- and two others committed to BCS programs. The team's track record is astounding: Since 2006, it's 70-1 (including 46 straight victories) and has won six consecutive New Jersey Non-Public Group 4 titles.
"Don Bosco is like the Miami Hurricanes in the '80s," said Shumate. "Everybody wants to go there."
But don't let the achievements fool you. Since Toal took over in 1999, the program has thrived as a result of relentless training, not simply gifted athletes. The Ironmen's summer workouts consist of up to nine hours of football-related activities -- from practice to weightlifting to film sessions -- and their schedule routinely features many of the nation's premier programs (they've knocked off teams from California, Alabama, Florida, Ohio and Maryland since '08). They're the best for a reason.
"If people had seen the work that we put in that results in Saturdays, they'd know why we win all the time," said Shumate. "We probably work harder than the Marines."
Take Carroo as an example. After enrolling at Bosco in ninth grade, he faced a series of daunting challenges. He woke up every morning at 5:30 a.m. to catch a train to Ramsey, N.J., or had his mother drive him more than two and a half hours to school. He seriously considered transferring, swayed only after the family of his quarterback, Mike Yankovich, offered to let Carroo live with them. Since then, he's upped his commitment -- and discovered a newfound appreciation for his teammates.
Then there's Elijah Shumate, the hard-hitting safety -- coaches called him Troy Polamalu in grade school -- who pledged to Notre Dame on Jan. 7. After coming to Bosco from Paterson Catholic (N.J.) following his sophomore year, he bolstered a defense that surrendered a meager 8.2 points per game from 2010-11. More importantly, he continued to play in honor of his grandmother, who passed away before she could watch him play a game. The Ironmen spirit only strengthened his resolve.
"Just going out there and keeping her on my mind, I have to make it," Shumate said. "I have to keep fighting every day to make her proud."
That seems to be a common sentiment around Ramsey, where football has become king. The game is more than just a game -- it's a means for personal maturation.
"You can learn a lot of benefits from football," said Toal, who doesn't cut anyone from his 160-player roster. "Football is all about teamwork and doing your job and coming to work every day with the right attitude. It's the same thing that's gonna carry you on later in life."
With National Signing Day fast approaching, focus has turned to recruiting, the early February rite of passage for many prep stars. And while Shumate has already committed, Carroo and Hamilton remain question marks. Carroo, a Rutgers commit since August, is reportedly undecided after coach Greg Schiano was hired as the next coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, while Hamilton, Rivals' No. 11 prospect and the son of former New York Giants great Keith "Hammer" Hamilton, is still weighing his options. They'll likely make their decisions on Feb. 1.
"I want to go to a place where I could have the opportunity to play early," said Hamilton. "I feel like I can make the most out of that."
No matter what happens, one thing seems clear. Given their experience at Don Bosco, laden with unparalleled success and tenacious expectations (both on and off the field), Carroo and the rest of the Ironmen should be well prepared for anything the future holds.
"Playing for a program like this has taught me not only the best football, but some life lessons," said Carroo. "It's about growing up and becoming a man. That's what Don Bosco did for me. I came here as a 14-year-old child, and I can pretty much say I'm leaving as a man."

I worked at AmerisourceBergen full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Decentralized, autonomous. Dynamic, fast paced environment with variety. Decisions are almost entirely housed in the site for day to day operations.
Cons – Lack of resources, staffing limited, support limited, no advancement, long hours, low pay, no training or travel encouraged. The company allows each DC to work autonomously however this puts a lot of stress on those at the site. There are limited human resources which requires long hours and tough work life balance.
Advice to Senior Management – Connect DC's to corporate and have values match the real culture.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

my favorite glow ring
By glowmomma
from Charlottesville Virginia
About Me Quality Oriented
I love this metal color changing ring and always get compliments when wearing it- it makes a great small gift, is priced very reasonably and is fun to wear at outdoor nighttime events like music festivals or costume parties. However, the top piece sometimes falls off and then you lose the very small batteries so this is not good for small children. I usually use superglue to make sure the top doesn't fall off. I love that it is adjustable and fits on most fingers. It is also not waterproof.
Very fun!
By 5thAngelofLogic
from New York
This was great! I wore one to my cousin's wedding and kept it off during the rehearsal dinner and ceremony so people were like "nice ring, it looks like an aspirin, etc." thinking it was ordinary. Then, on the dance floor, light up! I gave some to my friends but the only problem was, a couple of them didn't light.
Fun Toy, not really reusable
By Cache
from Fremont, CA
For a low-priced gimmick, this is fun. I like these more than the other blinkies because attachment is easy & secure, and the blink rate smooth, rather than epilepsy inducing.Even though in theory you can change batteries, it's an awkward process. Plan on using them until they die (several hours). Also the metal clasp for your finger will break with repeated resizings too, but it's good enough to hold a given finger securely for several uses. For these low prices (which apparently I cannot mention), this is a good value.My personal experience is that the failure rate out of the box is < 10%. Sometimes, the battery doesn't seat right, or has expired on the shelf, new batteries will fix it if you want to be bothered. Removing and reinserting the existing ones sometimes works.

75% did not work
By Brandywine
from Lafayette, LA
About Me Frequent Host
75% of these did not work. Very difficult to remove the pull tab to activate. You had to take the entire ring apart to get the pull tab out and they half of them would not light up or were defective in lighting up. Cusotmer service was terrible. When I called customer service they wanted me to mail the items back at my cost. At that point I decided I would never order these again and look for antoher company in the future for our 2 upcoming birthday parties and Mardi Gras balls.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hello Muzik!
Hope you had a lovely Christmas!
I am very embarrassed to say BOTH times when I had good intentions of seeing The Butler and also Hunger Games sequel, at the small but lovely theater they were already showing other new movies! Seems they only show movies for a limited time before they change, so it is my loss. And I bet both movies are incredible. One day I will have to travel elsewhere to see them or wait till they are out on DVD.
When I get back later I will go check out the forum comments! I can imagine what fans are saying about our INCREDIBLE and VERSATILE Lenny!!!
Have been an LK fan for many many years and have marvelled at his innate skills in the arena of making QUALITY music, with feeling/emotion, depth, passion, and intricate yet melodious intrumentation, in each and every album.
He is one of the most emotive and provocative artists of our time. A CLASS ACT!
I am incredulous when I see him branch out into other endeavors, and his skills, inventiveness, and creativity shine through in all his projects. His God-given talents are a wonder to behold.
As you can see by my avatar, my rescue dog, Tika, a Rottweiler, ADORES LK also, as evidenced by the newest CD that she nuzzles against. She and I travel with this CD and many of his others, daily.
A BIG THANKS to TEAMLK for this new site! It is powerful, informative and very interesting thus far. Keep up the good work and do Lenny proud!!
I look forward to interacting with other LK fans around this vast, yet intimately small world we live in.
Hello Muzik!
Hello Muzik!
So sorry about delayed reply. New England got hammered with a great deal of snow recently and between that and work it has been busy. I betcha you had a fantastic time with both huge events there! What an awesome place to live in!!!
Am doing fine thanks, and hoping you are also! Please send some of that lovely weather up to New England please! Spring can't come fast enuff.
I was so sorry to hear about Tika. Sending an enormous hug to you. At least her suffering is now over. The pain will eventually ease with time and I'm sure you have so many wonderful memories to cherish of her and the time you have spent together. Chin up ! Remember that you gave her a loving home & the best life a dog could wish for. xxx

Last week, Santa Cruz unleased three new models. After riding them, here's our first impressions.
As Santa Cruz continues to evolve from scrappy bike builder to respected
powerhouse, they continue to add new models. This week, they introduced
another three bikes in Gooseberry Mesa, Utah: An aluminum version of the
Tallboy 29er, another Blur model that slides between the XC and LT
versions already in the line, and a carbon hardtail 29er race bike. They
also hinted that a few other bikes are still in the works. Here's all
the details and initial ride impressions.
Blur TRc: Blurring the Lines
As the 5-inch-travel trail bike segment matures, it has
fractured into two groups. On the long side, there are 140 to 150mm (5.5
to 5.9 inches) bikes like the Blur LT; on the short side there are the
120/125mm-ish bikes like Trek's Fuel EX and Yeti's ASR5. Recognizing
they lacked a bike in the shorter category, Santa Cruz last year
developed the Nickel: a 125mm bike (that's 4.9 inches if you don't have a slide rule handy). That bike however, was made of aluminum and used a modified single-pivot
suspension. So the new Blur TRc was developed with the company's premier
VPP multi-link suspension and made of carbon.
The new bike mixes the Blur XC's cross-country vibe with the LT's
rock-n-roll swagger. The top tube lengths match the XC's, but the head
angle with a 130mm fork is 68 degrees—same as an LT carbon (LTc) with a
150mm fork. The frame, with shock, weighs 4.9 pounds, between the XC
(4.5lb.) and the LTc (6lb.). Frame stiffness sits between the XC/LTc as
The TRc also has a different suspension tune than the other Blurs.
Engineering director Joe Graney said he experimented with four slightly
different shock rates. The winning rate is, "almost identical to the
Nickel, but with a teeny bit more ramp at the end," Graney said. On the
trail, that works out to feeling more sensitive than an XC, but not
quite as plush in the middle of the stroke as the LT. That helps it ride
higher in the travel for a snappier feel, particularly while climbing.
On the anti-squat front, the TRc leans "closer to the XC than the LT,"
Graney said, which mean it pedals quite crisply.
The TRc has some details that hint at what we can expect from future
Santa Cruz bikes. It features guides for continuous housing, which all
Santa Cruz frames will gain in the future. Though it lacks ISCG tabs,
the TRc has a chainguide-friendly lower link—it is doglegged, and the
swingarm attachment ears are offset toward the non-drive side to provide
clearance for guide rollers. Neither the LT or LTc have those features
yet, but they soon will. The grease fittings on the lower link are also
tucked deeper into the links to prevent them from being smashed or torn
off by flying rocks.
The TRc will come in small, medium, large and extra-large sizes. Frame
and fork cost $2,700, but two complete bikes are also offered as well as
custom builds through Santa Cruz's web site. The company will begin
taking orders on April 14th and bikes will start shipping at the end of
Enjoy Another Tallboy
When Santa Cruz introduced its first 29er two years
ago, it dived straight into carbon, forgoing a lower-cost aluminum
version. Engineers there thought most aluminum full-suspension 'niners
were heavy and flexy. Ultimately, the Tallboy 29er they developed was
anything but: It was light, stiff and offered incredible performance.
Despite a price of $2,350 for the frame, it became Santa Cruz's
best-selling model.
Still, a market existed for a lower-cost version. Enter the Tallboy
aluminum (or just Tallboy; the original carbon version is now called
Tallboy C). To keep the stiff, high-performance ride, the Tallboy has a
6.6-pound aluminum frame—about a pound and half more than it's carbon
sister. However, a complete Tallboy can be bought for $2,300, less than
the price of the carbon frame. Higher-end models run a bit more.
Here's some other differences: The aluminum tallboy uses an aluminum
upper link while the carbon frame has a carbon link; it also has
continuous housing guides and it comes in only three sizes—the Tallboy C
has four, including an double-extra large. Like the Blur TRc, it will be
available at the end of next month.
The Highball Hardtail
Santa Cruz has been leaking information about this carbon
hardtail 29er for months, but we finally received some detailed specs.
Most significantly, the frame weighs 1,120 grams. There are lighter
frames on the market, but Santa Cruz wanted a bike that was not only
capable of winning races, but was also fun to ride on trails.
Accordingly, it is rated to accept 120mm forks.
The Highball's geometry is Tallboy C inspired: four sizes (M, L, XL,
XXL) with the same top tube lengths and a similar head tube angle. Its
chainstays are 17.3-inches long, which Santa Cruz says is as short as
they could make them and still have adequate tire clearance for the tail
of the front derailleur cage. The frame runs $1,900 and also will be
available in late May.
A New Blur XC?
One Santa Cruz employee was boldly riding what looked to be
a prototype of a Blur XC—the longest-toothed VPP bike in the line at
this point. From the outside, we could see a tapered headtube. We'd also
guess it is lighter. Word on the street is that Santa Cruz will spill
the beans in the next few weeks. Apparently a few other new bikes are in
the works too, but Santa Cruz isn't providing any details. Stay tuned. —Matt Phillips
