Love it!
I love this skirt, and I've had so many compliments. The sequins make it very special and seem more expensive. I'd love to see it in additional colors.

Honorable Mention
Urban infrastructure involves constructions from man made materials removing a natural landscape directly affecting the habitat of many different species of animals.
Animals are resourceful using material from their surrounding environment to create their home. However in dense urban cities, resources are geared more for human usage. The proposal is to encourage wildlife inhabiting the most unlikely concrete setting.
The design consists of just over 600 'twigs' that can be assembled randomly to fit any existing configuration. They come in 3 lenghts (140mm. 250mm and 340mm) to create a system of superstructure, substructure and detail). They are assembled with tight fitting dovetail joints for ease and avoid creating additional fixing elements.
They can be joined at either 30deg, 60deg or 90deg to achieve many design configurations. Each twig size has a different contoured underside for easy identification, improve water run-off and to add visual interest.
Because of its versatility, it can fit in any environment and mimic several natural habitats such as bird's nest or beaver's lodge amongst others.

Alicia Keys Gossip
Alicia Keys gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Alicia Keys has son Genesis
Monica Schipper /FilmMagic
I mean you will not find a bigger Alicia Keys fan than me. My friend Michael and I once sat in a room for hours discussing the implications of Unthinkable (I'm Ready). There was nothing but earnestness in our delight. So it was hard for me to swallow when she called her first son, with Swizz Beatz, Egypt. Full Story
VMA Karmic Payback: USA Gymnastics Team
Kevin Mazur/ Jason LaVeris/ Kevin Winter/ Christopher Polk/ Getty
Did I miss the part where they actually introduced these girls? I mean, I know the Olympics wasn't long ago, but we're used to seeing them all in skintight leotards and the same skinned-back hairstyle. It's not like we're at the point where there's full facial recognition when they're dressed like people, especially on a really, really wide shot. Full Story
Alicia Keys & Bonnie Raitt
Kevin Winter/Getty
I liked the Grammy set. I should have said that. Did you freak out when they didn't include Etta James in the In Memoriam package? A lot of people did. I assumed that this performance off the top -- one that I bet was in place before all the other events of this weekend -- was supposed to cover that off. Full Story
Weekend Weddings
All around the world I suppose. And of course for celebrities too. I liked Chelsea Clinton's dress. Don't love, but like more than I thought I would. Also...wedding thinnification? I hope Alicia Keys will be happy for a long time. I hope their baby arrives safely. I hope. But this dude. Full Story
Girls who make me sad
Chill. I'm not saying engagement and pregnancy make me sad. Of course it's a wonderful time in Alicia Keys's life. Just wish there wasn't a torn family cloud hanging over the news. Because, well, I believe Mashonda. Read Mashonda's story here Full Story
Missed malfunctions and ARod's ass
Not sure what Granny and Kate Hudson were presenting. This is because I was too distracted by Kate's dress and whether or not she'd end up showing us some nipple. She was cognisant of it too. So she kept fidgeting with her chest, which only made me obsess about it even more. Unfortunately I can't find the video. Full Story
Average Cat
Drama. Beanie Sigel's Jay-Z diss track – have you heard it? Beanie is signed to Roc-a-fella and some say he wants out buy Jay won't let him and that he's still pissed because Jay didn't come to see him in prison, and had him removed from his September 11th tribute concert. Full Story
It's time for Whitney
I was a blubbering mess when I saw Whitney at the listening session in New York earlier this summer. Click here to read the article. Whitney's new album I Look To You is available now. A true superstar declaring that it's time we stop f-cking around with the pretenders. Full Story
This article will be a novel. I can feel it already. Many of us were introduced to Michael Jackson and Madonna and Prince and Whitney Houston in the 80s – remarkable, iconic artists who totally changed the game. It's a cliché these days, and even more so in the wake of MJ's death, but they really don't make them like they used to anymore. Full Story
Alicia would never
I love Alicia Keys. So much. It would kill me if she turned out to be a twat. I interviewed Alicia briefly at the Superbowl in 2008 in Phoenix. Michelle was producing. And I remember both of us, even though our loins were pointed in the direction of John Krasinski, both of us were totally girlcrushing on her. Full Story
Worst Oscar Hair: Alicia Keys
This hurts me. Very badly. Because I love her. She is perfect. She is kind and smart and she purrs. Michelle says she purrs when she talks. She can purr in my ear all day. Of course she's sooooo beautiful too. But the hair, the hair is so obviously a fake, some kind of wig/weave/whatever…it made me sad. Full Story
Superwomen at the AMAs
Here they are: Alicia Keys, Sarah McLachlan, Queen Latifah, and Pink too delivering two of the finer performances of the evening, Sarah's voice as sweet as ever, and Alicia's electrifying rendition with Superwoman alongside Latifah and Kathleen Battle. If you haven't had the pleasure, both videos are below. Full Story
Prefer Her In Pink
The incomparable Alicia Keys last night at BET – she changed for the performance and the press room. Not really feeling the shells all over her breasts…I prefer her in pink. You? Am also jealous of her small bubbies. Look like how cleanly both dresses sit across her chest. Especially the short little cocktail. Full Story
Alicia to adopt…eventually
Alicia Keys was in New York last night at the screening of We Are Together, a documentary about her trip to South Africa working with orphans in 2006. LOVE her. So much. She said the experience has led her to consider adoption, like Angelina Jolie: "I"ve always loved kids. Kids are so important. Full Story

Ashlee Simpson -- Libra
Your personality would match best with a Libra, like Ashlee Simpson. Libras tend to be charming people pleasers, but sometimes lack the self-confidence needed to make decisions. Downside to being friends with a Libra? You'd both probably have the same crush your competing for. However, a Libra hates confrontation, so if getting your flirt on with some guy was super important to you, she'd back off.

It all comes down to the type of person you are. If you think you might want to play bass and youre a dive into the pool before looking then take out a small loan and get an American made Fender and some huge bass amps. When they collect dust because you did not take it seriously feel free to kick yourself for not taking the smart route.
This is an excellent bass for starting out and I know a few guys that still use it in there gig rotation. It has a decent sound without any accessory and for the price you cannot go wrong. If you or the person you are getting this for does not decided to stick with it its a small investment you can get back because everyone is looking for a smart, affordable investment for their first instrument.
This is well built, light, great action, easy to play and has a good sound. Like I said, if your just starting out or considering playing bass you would be a fool not to try this out first before you go out and drop price of a used car on gear you might not even play constantly.
This model has all the basic necessities to get you started down the road of playing bass. If you like a poppy slap bass sound or more of a muted heavy sound this bass can do it without accessories.
I have had this bass for about five years now and it is faring better than a BC Rick Warlock or Lotus bass I picked up at a pawn show. The bass is put together nicely and has held up to wear and tear and a young toddler who thinks she is flea.
This is an excellent value for the product that youre getting. If youre considering getting a bass or know of someone who wants to try and play bass this is the model for you. It is functional enough to handle a wide range of styles of music and is very durable. If you dont have the cash to drop on an expensive bass and are not ever sure if this is going to be something for you or someone else this is a GREAT investment.

It's a good bass for like SUPER beginners (children between the age of 6 and 10 that are stupid enough to think playing bass is easy enough 4 them) because the bottom cutout like STABS into my leg when im playing sitting down. besides that, the wires broke alot because of some problem with the knobs which after it happening about 6 times it got really annoying, the action was mediocre and the sound is way too loud on the lower stings when ajdusted to the j bass style pickup. A better and just as expensive alternative would be the nicer looking better action Ibanez.

Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
Overall this is an excellent bass for the money. Very playable and build quality is outstanding. My only complaint is the volume controls have an excessive audio taper and don't really kick in until about 6-7 (out of 10). I play guitar primarily and bought this to get out of a rut and try something different. Very happy I did.
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
I'm a singer/songwriter who was looking for a bass for home recording, jamming and playing around with and when it came down to brass tacks, I couldn't beat the price/performance of this baby. I was comparing to slightly more expensive models from other seond line brands (Squire, Epiphone etc...) but beyond a few little quirks I didn't see any reason to spend more and get less.
I set up the bass, plugged it in, and was surprised at the playability of this instrument. The neck is fast yet strong and the body shape lends itself to sitting and pliddling around with it. I had to set the intonation but the string height was set near perfect from the factory. Intonation was so close that I could have left it, but I tweeked it to perfection anyways.
This bass is light - much lighter than the Fender Jazz I've used on occasion.
Why is it so inexpensive?
1) The Pickups
I will be swapping the bridge pickup out at some point, it is marginal, but adequate for jamming etc.. It's not as dynamic as I want and is a little noisy. The split pickup sounds decent - though I'll probably swap both out for the sake of completeness. There is NO RUSH for this though. The cheap stock pickups are fine.
2) Other Cheap Outs
There are a couple of plastic covers that give a feel of cheapness to this bass, but this is only cosmetic - so far. The cheap tuners seem okay, nothing to write home about, but they're not on the upgrade list (yet.) There is a bar (not sure what it is called) just beayond the nut that keeps the strings down for the tuners, it is held with two tiny wood screws. I've had no problems, but the arrangement makes me nervous.
Basically this bass has VERY GOOD bones, and for anyone who is used to maintaining a guitar or bass, (doing upgrades and repairs) or is looking for a good starter bass, this is the one.
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
I own one, it is my first and only bass for now. I sold my other basses and i stayed with it. i have played many bass guitars, including Thunderbird IV, fender P & J basses, Maison, other Yamaha basses and Chinese unknown brand basses. this one feels so good and so right. it has slightly thinner neck and lighter body which is made of agathis,stays in tune and good tone
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
This was my first bass and ive had it for over a year now. my only two problems are the ammount of fret buzz whitch gets pretty annoying when I try to record anything, but it can be helped if you play with you eq. but this bass is lightweight and has a great tone and feel for the price. now as im getting into more recording with my band and small venues i put some D'Addario prosteels on it, play it on a fender rumble 150 amp and it sounds like a 3 or 400 dollar bass. should hold nicely till I get my hands on a p-bass or something
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
I bought this bass because I need a bass to gig with. I picked it out at a local store then bought it on MF. My budget was for $300 or less, which does give a fair variety. Though I had the coin for a more expensive bass I kept coming back to this one. With the deal that MF had and free shipping I couldn't be happier. Stayed WAAAAAAAY below my budget and even got a good case (purchased seperately)
Finish is OK, mine is the violin sunburst which I feel makes it look a little more classy. I had been playing with some Taco fenders, Epihpone T-Bird, Ibanez and Chinese Sting Ray and this bass had better feel and sound than all of them.
I do get a low hum but not enough to notice when playing in a band, only a slight background noise when practicing.
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
I do not own one, but picked this up and played at my local music store, right after playing the 424X. It sounded very, very similar. I can't speak to the build quality over time, but in the 15 minutes I played it, it did not buzz and the action was fair. The thing that stuck out to me the most, though was the tone. Great, well rounded. Not too deep, but with good clarity. I played through a Fender Rumble 350 head into a small Fender cabinet with all controls flat.

Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
i see alot of folks complaining about the loud volume on the lower strings now sure thats the way the bass comes however just simply learn how to adjust your pick up height and youre golden!! ive been playing bass for almost 25 years and yes this is a cheapo of a bass but once you set it up properly to your playing style its an awesome bass to play very versatile this is one of my main bass guitars i went and put a set of dr black beauties on it 45-105 and this thing rocks great bass for all music yes i would recomend this bas to anybody starters and seasoned pros as well.... GREAT JOB YAMAHA MY HATS OFF TO YOU
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
I was really surprised at the quality of this bass for the price. Nice finish (I bought the blue), playable neck, stays in tune, string changes are really simple. The included strings sounded a bit dull but changing them to any decent name brand string will greatly improve the sound. As others have mentioned the tuners do feel a little cheap but I haven't broken any yet. Just be careful with them. Overall a great bass for under $200 and I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn without spending a fortune.
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha RBX170 Bass:
If you're on the fence about this bass my best advice is to just get it. I bought this bass from Musicians Friend many years ago and played in a band for a long time with it and it never once let me down.
We cut several cd's and used it for the recording as well. I have played other basses like peavey and they don't even come close to the feel and quality of this one. The action is perfect and the tone is beautiful.
I really like the body shape, it has a longer top that makes it very balanced when hanging on you. The workmanship is right with the high end $1000+ guitars. The versatility of the pickups makes a wide range of sounds.
Sounds great at home, in the recording studio, and on the stage at the big events. Extremely easy to play.
If this guitar ever got broke I would replace it with the exact same one. I have not one single bad thing to say about this bass. Not even a small complaint.
Also because of where the 1/4 inch plug is located, if you want to play it while sitting on the couch buy a cord with an angled tip and then loop the cord back up around the back strap peg. keeps you from pulling it out and popping your ears. also just out of the way. Just a small thing I learned.
Just get this bass. You will be very glad you did.

5 BRILLIANTMatticulous | 06/02/2009 | See all Matticulous's reviews (4)The perfect racing game, bikes and cars and with the brand new party pack makes it great fun to play with friends with lots of different challenges not just racing i bought the original burnout paradise for similar price then had to purchase the party pack for 8 pounds, wish i had seen this first
5 A year on and still going strongAllenfamily | 10/02/2009 | See all Allenfamily's reviews (4)almost a year on the dev's for this game are still bringing out epansion packs and im still playing it ive spent a good 60 hours on it so far and ui havnet yet completed it this game has alot to offer especially for 25.99also i may add the expansions really are as good as they are made out
4 Great fun!itsgot2go | 26/02/2009 | See all itsgot2go's reviews (3)Not so much like the burnouts I used to play to death on the gamecube, but more like Midnight club. Having missed out on this the first time I decided to buy, and can say Im not dissapointed. Dispite the review below saying the only added extra to this box is the motorbikes - and what an addition they are (I find it just as fun to free-roam on these as I do actually performing in challenges!) - this package also gives you multiplayer which although at first came as a dissapointment (as you do not get the option to race one another), proved to be good fun and are more like the 'crash' challenges in previous burnouts.All in all this is a huge game and definately worth the price-tag, the free roaming aspect is almost as fun as the tasks and the graphics are crisp if slightly dated now PS3 wise.
3 Great game, but there's nothing "ultimate" about this boxTalicus | 27/06/2009 | See all Talicus's reviews (12)I'll try to be as brief as possible.As a racing game, it stands out from other racing games because of it's extreme speed, relatively little time in between races due to the free-roaming aspect, and (whilst very arcade-ish) solid controls. The graphics might not be superb on screenshots, but when you see everything racing past you at who-knows-howmany miles per hour, you know you've reached the full potential of your PS3 (or 360 if you get it for that system).Now, about the "ultimate" box. Apparently little people realise that most of the gameplay aspects available on the ultimate box are downloadable free of charge (in fact, they are automatically downloaded as soon as you pop in a copy of the original Burnout Paradise). There are a few things that you have to pay for on the regular Burnout Paradise, but even if you buy the original Burnout Paradise and download all the extra content found on this disc, it's still hardly cheaper than buying this box! Not to mention that not all the DLC is worth it in my opinion, but I'll leave that up to you.In short, great game, but there's nothing "ultimate" about this box.Game itself: 4/5"special features" of this box: 1/5Overall (not an average): 3/5
5 Best game EVER!!spooner22 | 16/06/2009 | See all spooner22's reviews (20)Regardless of whether this is technically an 'ultimate box', this game is amazing and should have 5 stars in my opinion.Yes you can get the extras free of charge anyway but they take a while to download.Either way, you get the original island with all the challenges, you get bikes, extra challenges and trophies.This has to be the best driving/racing game ever...so much stuff to do, racing and more (smashing through gates and billboards etc.) and the graphics are fantastic!If you want a great racing game, or just a great game in general, you have to get this!!

5 Review games not demo's or betas...MartinsBluRay | 19/02/2011 | See all MartinsBluRay's reviews (46)I have just completed this game and have to say it is absolutely superb, graphically it's up there with the best with incredibly detailed environmets and character models, sound is fantastic and if at all possible you should play through a surround sound system or headphones, some of the effects used are jump out of your seat scary. Luckily the game is also great fun to play (as was the first Dead Space title) stomping necromorphs never gets boring and the upgrading is both interal to the game and fun to do. It is longer than the first game but maybe slightly easier to play and the only criticism I could make is that they have not included any big bosses to finish off but that is a small gripe as overall this game is a contender for game of the year, The extraction game is also fun but by no means essential. Buy ithis title, you wil not be dissapointed...
5 If You Thought Dead Space Was Scary, Your Gonna Love This!Gouldster | 10/01/2011 | See all Gouldster's reviews (33)Top 100 Electronics Reviewer While I had just finished Alien Breed: Impact I came across the demo for download & thought I play that straight away. The graphics, movement & the brightness settings are spot on more than the first one. What's good you don't get bored I would however say link a PS3 up to a 5.1 surround system to get the perfect perfection of the sound, It will get you more on your seat playing it.What Play.com have done which is great pre-ordering this you get Dead Space: Extraction (Other shops only give you the game Dead Space: Ignition not Extraction, pre-order with play, a far better deal) I wish now however I didn't buy Extraction for the Wii since this is now converted into HD. Please note you can use either a controller OR move controller to play this.For now I'm finishing Alien Breed 2: Assault, but once this is delivered it's gonna be the only game to play not COD. : )
5 EXCELLENT!!!andyhadj1980 | 03/03/2011 | See all andyhadj1980's reviews (4)I am a huge dead space fan and this sequel is total awesome!!!MUST BUY! I 'll wait for Dead Space 3!
5 JUMP? yes you willkriovu | 16/02/2011 | See all kriovu's reviews (7)lights off,headphones on,volume up.now you have the ideal setting for this game.like the first one your nerves will be shot.just make sure there's nobody in the house to tap you on the shoulder.OUTSTANDING!!!
5 One of the best games on the PS3Lennymcgra | 08/02/2011 | See all Lennymcgra's reviews (20)This game is awesome, great graphics and brilliant gameplay, the game is long and never gets boring. The game is much smoother than the first and the zero g parts of the game are excellent, i would highly recommend this game for anyone wanting to see the power of the ps3

Checking out the Library
By Jim Gates
One of the great benefits about working for the National Baseball Hall of Fame is that we get to meet so many people who make the pilgrimage to Cooperstown from all over the world. I personally enjoy having the opportunity to meet a variety of librarians and archivists that pass through our doors.
Recently, we had a special visitor, Judy Graves, a Digital Projects Coordinator for the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. The LOC is the world's greatest accumulation of books, documents, and all matter of recordings and ephemera – and it was a real treat to provide Ms. Graves with a behind-the-scenes tour of our facility. (Although we are not as big as the LOC, we think our collection is really cool, and it is fun to show off to visiting library professionals.
It should come as no surprise that America's largest library should have a significant collection of baseball related material, and over the past several years they have been working on a project to promote this. The result has been the production of a beautiful new book titled Baseball Americana: Treasures from the Library of Congress which was recently published by Smithsonian Books.
This volume contains 240 pages of pure baseball history as it is loaded with high-quality images of the game from baseball cards to posters to advertisements to rare photographs. Several of our research and curatorial staff have had the chance to peruse this book, and all the comments have been quite positive.
As part of her visit, Ms. Graves donated an author signed copy of Baseball Americana to the Hall of Fame's library, and we were very pleased to accept this gift. It is only through such gifts that we are able to expand the scope and depth of our collection and the support we receive is greatly appreciated. This book will hold a special place in our library and I hope that some of you have the chance to enjoy it as well.
Jim Gates is the librarian of the National Baseball Hall of Fame Library.

Having recently returned from Mexico for Xmas holiday, I brought back all of the ingredients necessary to replicate a very nice Margarita that I had in a seafood restaurant in Punta Mita Mexico. So, to welcome in the New Year, I have been making, and beta testing, Margaritas. Peter
Bob,As it turned out, at the very same restaurant as I had the Margaritas, last night my grand-daughter had a once in a lifetime opportunity to spend several hours, at dinner, with her favorite singer/performer, Serena Gomez. My son tells me that they bonded immediately and had a great time, as did my son and daughter-in-law. Serena even gave my grand-daughter some "big sister" advice: "Listen to your parents". I even got the latest scuttlebut on Serena's on-again, off-again relationship with Justin Bieber, but my lips are sealed on this. I have been receiving photos of the occasion, including the one below.Peter

I really like the way you made the transition from the blocks to the border with the "spots".
Congratulations on your Modern Red Cross quilt! very pretty fabric selection. svonfumetti(at)yahoo(dot)com
Your quilts are just gorgeous and I love the classic modern style. I am just getting into quilting and would love your book (it is going on my Christmas wish list).
Amy, I love your quilt in the book. It is such a clever way of putting together the design and I like the way you can see two different design depending on how you look at it. Did you quilt it or have someone else? Is that the 'square dance' pattern? I used that on a modern quilt I did and LOVE the design.
Looks esciting book! Classic blocks are so great and it's very nice to see and use them in modern way! Thank you for a lovely give away!

I've seen so many beautiful quilts from this book! It would be a thrill to win it, thanks for the chance!
This book looks great and I LOVE your contribution! Gorgeous!
I don't know if you're giving away outside of the US, so jump over my name if you aren't! (I'm in Canada.)
I mostly just wanted to say that that quilt is really beautiful! The colours are so classic and it just looks crisp and lovely. I'm a little intrigued by the fact that it doesn't ping me as being an Americana type quilt - usually red, white, and blue quilts feel very American to me, even though many many many countries use those three colours in their flags - and I'm curious why it doesn't. I just can't figure it out! (Maybe it's because the colours are so crisp, and it's often more of a greyed out navy for the blues if it is more USA-themed? I mean, obviously, not having stars or stripes makes a difference, but lots of red, white, and blue quilts without those elements still make me thing USA. I just don't know.)
I love that blaze pattern! Thank you so much for the chance to win! Happy Thursday!
What beautiful quilts! Thank you for the giveaway :)
This book looks fabulous. I really love the electric fans quilt.
love how the quilt turned out, such fun colors

Kan. AG acknowledges 'Hard 50' may not fully work
Published on -7/25/2013, 2:57 PM

E-Mail This Story
TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) -- Attorney General Derek Schmidt acknowledged Thursday that rewriting Kansas' "Hard 50" law still may not preserve the sentence for pending first-degree murder cases, but said the state will be in a better legal position if legislators approve a fix during a special session rather than waiting.
Schmidt said his office is working on a proposal responding to a U.S. Supreme Court decision last month about mandatory minimum sentences that raises questions about the law's constitutionality. It allows judges to sentence people convicted of premeditated murders to life in prison with no chance of parole for 50 years, Kansas' toughest penalty outside of capital punishment.
Schmidt asked Gov. Sam Brownback on Wednesday to call the Legislature into special session by mid-September to rewrite the "Hard 50" law. Legislators formally adjourned June 20 -- three days after the high court's ruling -- and aren't scheduled to convene again until January.
"There is never a guarantee in the criminal justice system," Schmidt said Thursday during a news conference. "For pending cases that are caught up in this period of uncertainty, our likelihood of getting the outcome that was intended -- the 'Hard 50' sentence -- is greater with the change than without it."
Schmidt's office said it has identified about two-dozen murder cases that could be affected, but said there are likely to be more.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a Virginia case that juries, not judges, must weigh whether the facts in a case trigger mandatory minimum sentences in criminal cases. In Kansas, judges determine whether the aggravating factors in a first-degree murder case -- such as whether a victim was tortured or a defendant shot into a crowd of people -- warrant the "Hard 50" rather than a life sentence with parole eligibility after 25 years.
Schmidt said his office is already drafting a proposal to have juries consider such questions after a separate post-conviction hearing like they do in death penalty cases. He also said his office will propose that the changes apply retroactively to pending cases, rather than just future ones.
But he acknowledged Thursday that defense attorneys are likely to challenge attempts to preserve or impose "Hard 50" sentences.
Brownback spokeswoman Eileen Hawley said the governor will make a "timely" decision on a special session.
The Republican attorney general's request has bipartisan support from prosecutors. Schmidt was joined by the district attorneys for the state's four most populous counties, two of them Democrats.
The affected Kansas cases include an appeal before the state Supreme Court from Scott Roeder, convicted of the May 2009 death of Dr. George Tiller. Tiller -- among a few U.S. physicians known to perform abortions in the last weeks of pregnancy -- was gunned down in the foyer of his Wichita church.
"The longer we go without ending the period of uncertainty, the greater will be the number of cases that fall into that category," Schmidt said.

We have the glider as well and this was an absolute must have to go with it. It does show a little more wear than the glider, but my 16 month old uses it as his personal sippy cup table...

I love sitting on the glider with my feet up on the ottoman. I prop my dear son on my legs and he enjoys rocking back and forth and staring out his window. My feet are always happy because of this ottoman! hehe

Rated 4 out of 5 by Laura Almost as good as the glider
We've had the ottoman for 16 months, and it always shows a "divet" where the foot rested on it. I always smooth it out with my hand after use. Not a big deal, but a minor annoyance considering the superb quality of the glider.

31 Years Ago: Journey's 'Frontiers' Album Released
When Journey started recording their eighth album, 'Frontiers' –which was released in February 1983 — they were coming off their biggest year ever.
Their previous album, 1981's 'Escape,' contained their best set of songs, a consistent mix of radio-friendly pop and fist-raising rock that they had been striving for since 1975. The band was rewarded with its first (and only) No. 1 album and its all-time bestseller — not counting 1988's 'Greatest Hits' collection – with more than nine million copies.
So expectations were high when they stepped into a California studio to record the follow up. But ever since their fourth album, 1978's breakthrough 'Infinity,' when they hired Steve Perry as singer, Journey hadn't so much upgraded their sound as they had sharpened it. By the time they released 'Escape,' they weren't making different records, just better ones. And they stuck by that foolproof plan for 'Frontiers.'
Taking what worked on 'Escape' (big pop hooks mixed with crowd-swaying ballads), tossing out what didn't (excessive soloing by the band's veteran musicians) and adding a glossy early-'80s sheen that gave the album the group's most state-of-the-art production, Journey crafted 'Frontiers' by the hit-making playbook. More than anything, the record was designed to sell a lot of copies and to continue the roll they were on since 'Escape' catapulted them to the top.
The plan halfway worked. The four singles released from the album – 'Separate Ways (Worlds Apart),' 'Send Her My Love,' 'After the Fall' and 'Faithfully' — all hit the Top 30, but 'Separate Ways' was the only one to reach the Top 10. The LP itself hit No. 2 and eventually sold six million copies. But besides a handful of tracks, the songs don't make much of an impression. The quintet left little breathing space within the music; they were so determined to make a hit record that most of the album sounds like it was manufactured in a factory. 'Frontiers' would be the last classic Journey record. By the time they got around to the follow-up, 1986's 'Raised on Radio,' two longtime members were fired, Perry had seized control of the group and the music sounded as faceless as the band's critics had always claimed it was. 'Frontiers' was the beginning of the end.

STATUS: I'm feeling a tad riled up.
What's playing on the XM or iPod right now? MY HEART BELONGS TO ME by Barbara Streisand
Holy cow! Can't believe I missed this article yesterday. I'm so glad an agent friend forwarded to me. Take a moment to read it and tweet it on but in short, it's an appeal to support literature with gay and lesbian characters and the fact that there are some appalling agents and editors out there who are making requests that the writers make a gay character straight.
Seriously? What year are we in?
I cannot tell you how delighted I was to see a link to a list of YA literature that features gay/lesbian characters and my author Sarah Rees Brennan's THE DEMON'S LEXICON series was on it.
This author of mine is brilliant. It's a wonderful series and her new trilogy that I just sold to Random House also has an absolute kick-a** gay/lesbian main character. The first book UNSPOKEN publishes in fall 2012.
Not to mention, I have a Monica Trasandes' debut adult literary novel coming out in spring 2012 from Thomas Dunne Books/St. Martin's Press. It's called BROKEN LIKE THIS and features three main protagonists: a bisexual character, a gay/lesbian character and a straight male character (had to throw that last one in there-LOL).
A multicultural author to boot. I'll tell you right now it was a tough sell but I loved the novel and I sold it.
So add these to your wish lists if you want to show support via your buying dollars. If I had cover art or anything yet for these two titles, I'd post it here but we are in the middle of the cover design and the buy links aren't available online yet.
And let's not forget the incredibly brilliant, witty, impeccably dressed and extremely powerful Lord Akeldama from Gail Carriger's The Parasol Protectorate series.
I must admit it never occurred to me to add to my agency's submission page that we are open to accepting material with LGBTQ characters because I kind of thought it went without saying but I'm rethinking it now.
Feel free to link to this blog post that it's a-okay with us and I have NEVER asked an author to change a character's ethnic background or orientation.
And because we are talking about multicultural too, check out my author Kimberly Reid's debut YA novel MY OWN WORST FRENEMY. It's an African-American urban Nancy Drew series. I mean, just how cool is that?
Note: LGBTQ stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning.
Additional Note: As there seems to be some question about the legitimacy of the original article cited and the agent/agency named, in fairness I'm also including a link to the agent/agency rebuttal to the accusation.

At the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards two legendary rockers sat down and performed two of their band's, as well as the decade's, biggest hits. However, the duo performed the songs armed only with their acoustic guitars.
The response was overwhelmingly positive. The acoustic performance was so indelible that it led to the MTV Unplugged series.
The duo was Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora and the songs they performed were "Livin On A Prayer" and "Wanted Dead or Alive."
Bon Jovi and Sambora inspired the unplugged genre of recording and performing. Every time you hear an artist doing an acoustic set of their biggest hits you can thank Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.

Apple phones BlackBerry phones Google phones HTC phones Huawei phones LG phones Microsoft phones Motorola phones Nokia phones Samsung phones Sony phones Vodafone phones | What is MMS?
By S21 Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) is a standard in mobile messaging. Like SMS (Short Messaging Service), MMS is a way to send a message from one mobile to another. The difference is that MMS can include not just text, but also sound, images and video. It is also possible to send MMS messages from a mobile phone to an email address. Best buy: Mobile phones from O2 (£0.00) Formats that can be embedded within MMS include:
MMS is an extension of the SMS protocol, making its usage familiar to existing SMS users. An MMS message is a single entity, not a collection of attachments. One of the main practical differences between MMS and SMS is that whilst SMS messages are limited to 160 bytes, an MMS message has no size limit and could be many Kbytes in size, or even larger. MMS requires a third generation (3G) network to enable such large messages to be delivered, although smaller messages can be sent even with second generation networks using GPRS. Whilst mobile phone users can create and send their own MMS messages, perhaps the biggest use of MMS is likely to be companies sending MMS messages to subscribers, enquirers or customers. For example, a company could send visitors an MMS map to help them find their office. Other possible applications include weather reports, news & sport bulletins, etc. The first MMS capable phones started to appear in 2002, and the standard looks set to become very widely used in the years ahead. Different manufacturers are introducing MMS technologies in different ways. Some are introducing MMS directly into their phones, whilst others are introducing phones that have EMS (Enhanced messaging Service). EMS is a halfway house between SMS and MMS, providing some of the features of MMS (e.g. formatted text, simple pictures, simple audio such as ringtones, and even some animation). EMS is a technology that is designed to work with existing networks, but will ultimately be made obsolete by MMS. Best Deals £0.00
