text: Review Content works well it winds both my watches perfectly. Modern Design Just what my husband has wanted for some time! Nice looking, quality construction Attractive, well built, fits multiple styles and sized watches. Electric and battery operated were selling points for me. Great product and price This product allows me to have a ready change of watches for various occasions. not in working order Very disappointed as this was a fathers day present and it did not work Good Looking!!!! This was a gift for my husband who has everything. The watches he has purchased over the years could use a winder to keep the time. Was a practical gift for expensive watches. He loved it. Useful latch should be bigger or/and redesigned with handle to lift cover Just what we needed! Perfect for my husband who has several self winding watches. This unit shows a flashing light when the unit is "resting between turns which we love because we know it is working. Looks great on the night stand too! Great headline for watch winder! Being a woman, I consider watches to be NECESSARY accessories to any wardrobe - even pajamas! I have two out of several watches needing rewinding. This is such an answer I was putting off buying, but just hated to reset the watches every time I wanted to wear one. Now, Im pleased to say this terrific product does that job for me! If you own a watch like these, dont hesitate a minute longer to buy one. Youll be glad you did. I wish I had ordered this sooner I feel like I am taking better care of my watches by using this winder He loves it! It will allow my husband to use his nice watches when he wants and not have to take them to tiffanys to get a new battery installed as often. This will keep them wound. Great beautiful winder Home use Excellent My husband and i have two of these. We always have our watches winding so Whenever we need to change the watch we are ready to go. Before we had these watch winders it was very annoying to fix the time and date every time we changed our watches. What a great product! Elegant Watch Winder and Storage Box In addition to a fairly large collection of battery-powered wristwatches, I own two, high-end self-winding wrist watches and enjoy wearing them both. However, its been a nuisance, each time I want to wear one, to have to activate and re-set it. This watch-winder storage case is well made and attractive, and gently moves the watches for 20 minutes out of each hour, keeping them activated and on time. It also provides additional watch-storage space, which I needed. It will run either on battery power (four C alkalines) or with an AC adapter (supplied). It is rather large and boxy (approx.7"x 7"x 7" cube), so adequate table-top or shelf space is needed. It works (silently)and well, as advertised. Attractive and well-made Searched for a long time for a well-made, quiet and affordable watch winder. This has proved to be everything that I was looking for and I am pleased with its look and performance. Winder works! I have many watches, most of which need winding. This product lets me get that done easily and conviently. Great Product Product arrived in a timely manner and functions exactly as described.

Hindsight is 20/20.
News of the punishment that was dealt to some of the high-profile names associated with the New Orleans Saints Bountygate has taken the league by storm.
The NFL conducted an extensive investigation and has concluded that the Saints had a bounty program from 2009 through last season.
The program reportedly offered cash rewards to defenders who were able to successfully force opposing players out of a contest through injury.
Greg Williams, the Saints former defensive coordinator who currently holds the same position with the St. Louis Rams, has been suspended indefinitely. Head coach Sean Payton has been suspended for the entire 2012 season. Also, General Manager Mickey Loomis has been suspended for the first six regular season games of 2012.
In addition to the suspensions, the Saints have been fined and stripped of draft picks.
If the severity or significance of the Saints' program –- one that incented injuries to the opponent –- were in any doubt, today's announced chastisement is confirmation.
This is one of the league's most severe rulings, joining the indefinite suspensions of Plaxico Buress (2009) and Michael Vick (2007) as well as the one-year suspensions of San Francisco 49ers owner Edward Debartolo (1999), Paul Hornung and Alex Karras (1963).
Here is where the hindsight comes in.
Roughly four months ago, on the heels of Ndamukong Suh's suspension, the Lions became vilified and labeled with such tags as 'undisciplined' and 'reckless' after being heavily penalized in a nationally televised contest against the Saints.
The Lions were penalized 11 times for 107 yards. Even worse, they had over 100 offensive yards nullified as a result of penalties caused by offensive players -- or, potentially -- players that might have been targeted by the Saints' bounty system.
Of the 11 penalties, three of them stood out amongst the rest.
- Rookie Titus Young was flagged in the third quarter for a personal foul when he shoved Malcolm Jenkins' helmet after the whistle.
- Stefan Logan was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct after he flipped the ball towards one of the Saints in the fourth quarter – the two players appeared to be exchanging words prior to the penalty.
- Lastly, Brandon Pettigrew was flagged for a personal foul in the fourth quarter after he made contact with an official who was attempting to separate Pettigrew from Roman Harper.
Discipline is an important characteristic in the NFL and the Lions left much to be desired on that Sunday night in December. With that said, in light of the recent developments with the Saints, the Lions may have been the subject of provocation –- and more so than the typical occurrences in a competitive game.
Should the Lions have maintained composure? Yes.
Ultimately, only the players who decide to retaliate can be held responsible for their actions.
Still, after having their integrity, maturity and leadership questioned, the Lions are owed some level of redemption.
When looking back at the Week 13 matchup between the Lions and Saints, which team now appears to be the villain?

I played it again, and once the effects of the amazing graphics wear off the gameplay isn't that great. And with no online I can't see myself buying it. I will probably just rent it.
the game has a robust single player, you should look more into it. you can craft items, make custom ammo, pimp out your guns, "level" up your character. think of it as the way RE4 shouldve been. (conserving ammo/horror/the works) this is the main reason im buying it. To me, the RE series now goes: RE0, RE1, RE2, RE3, Bioshock, RE5(maybe).Originally Posted by paintba||er

Watched the boyf play the demo this week.. it's SO scary.
Being the girly little wimp that I am I made him turn it off lol >.<
But it's one good game and I love the special powers =]
I have played the demo about 10 times through. It just doesnt get old. Bioshock doesnt have muliplay so that will kill its chances of beating halo 3 for game of the year. This looks like it could be the best FPS game every made.

COLUMBIA - The director of the Richland County Department of Social Services office is transferring to a position in York County.
Elizabeth Stroup has accepted a new position close to her home in York County with the DSS Intensive Foster Care and Clinical Services program, said Marilyn Matheus, DSS spokeswoman. Stroup will leave for her new position after the agency has found her replacement.
"Ms. Stroup is a dedicated and valued member of the DSS team, and her more than 20 years of working to protect the at-risk children of this state are a tremendous asset to the agency," Matheus said. "IFCCS is a specialized program that coordinates treatment for foster children who have emotional, developmental or medical disabilities."
Stroup was at the helm of the office that Gov. Nikki Haley said she'd be taking more of a hand-on approach with in May, following a case in April in which an infant died while a DSS staffer was searching for his family.
Haley said in May she was seeking to implement changes to the office, which include improving communication between law enforcement and the Richland County DSS office. Similar issues were addressed at the Greenville DSS office in 2011, Haley said, and resulted in improved quality of the office, which is what she's seeking to do in Richland County.
The changes also included sending 20 caseworkers from surrounding counties to Richland County to reduce caseloads for staffers, while an additional group of case workers undergo training. A liaison position was also to be created to improve communication between Richland County offices of law enforcement, the coroner, DSS and Richland County Court Appointed Special Advocates.
DSS has been a hot-button issue for Haley's gubernatorial challengers. The agency's director, Lillian Koller, resigned June 2, saying that her role as the agency's chief was "causing a distraction."
DSS has been the subject of an ongoing investigation by a Senate oversight committee after a few child welfare officials voiced concern over several deaths of children who had case files with the agency. The panel has been asked to report to the General Assembly on how to improve the agency.

I heard your record..it's alright.
yes!!! now...get rid of willy!
very interesting
I guess Phillips was taking grounders at SS for a reason.
Its a shame Walt didnt go and find a real option for SS this year.
Lets see who bats 2nd now
Opens a spot on the 40 man as well. A lot of potential moves could be made here. Frazier getting a call up? I thought there was a chance he could get a september one. Valaika? Give Leake a ML deal? Lots of things could happen here.
Wow, talk about not getting value from a contract.
Red Sox fan here. We had Alex here in '06, and his glove was phenominal. He never really could hit all that well, so my question is ... since last year's injury issues, how's his defense been at SS?
He has good hands, range is probably getting low but I think the guy is better than some numbers might suggest. Hes pretty much the same guy you guys saw just probably less range.

Jay Leno's 'Tonight Show' farewell draws biggest audience since 1998
Jimmy Fallon also capitalizes on the Olympics-boosted telecast
Audiences were eager to say good-bye to Jay Leno on Thursday (February 6) night, as "The Tonight Show" drew its biggest overall audience since 1998.
Boosted by a strong "bonus" night of coverage from the Sochi Winter Olympics, "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" drew 14.6 million viewers, the most since May 14, 1998. That was, of course, the night of the series finale of "Seinfeld" and featured Jerry Seinfeld as a guest. That episode drew just under 15 million viewers.
This was, in fact, the fourth largest audience ever for a Jay Leno "Tonight Show," following the 1993 episode following the "Cheers" finale (22.4 million), Leno's 1992 debut (16.1 million) and, again, the post-"Seinfeld" episode.
Among adults 18-49, Leno's send-off drew a 3.8 rating. That's the biggest "Tonight" show audience in the key demo since -- chortle -- Conan O'Brien's last "Tonight Show" in 2010, which did a 4.4 key demo rating. It was the best 18-49 rating for a Thursday "Tonight" since President Obama's first appearance in March of 2009.
Leno's departure also gave a big bump to his successor, as "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" drew 6 million viewers, the biggest for a regularly schedule weekday "Late Night" since 1993 when David Letterman exited.
Check out the gallery below to see the things we pretended we were going to miss about Jay Leno.

With less than two weeks to go before her big day, The Saturdays singer Rochelle Wiseman is finalising details of her showbiz wedding to JLS hunk Marvin Humes.
Around 400 guests have been invited, a monochrome dress code has been set and the only thing the loved-up couple has to worry about is when they can squeeze a honeymoon into their jam-packed schedules.
But the 23-year-old bride to be has been gripped by a crisis of conscience following an emotional visit to Tanzania last month.
She travelled to Africa with bandmate Vanessa White, 22, for Comic Relief to raise awareness of the plight of girls as young as 11 and 12, often with children of their own, who have been beaten into submission by their husbands.
Many were sold by their families into their marriage as a financial arrangement.
"It made me feel really guilty," says Rochelle. "You get so caught up in what you buy, and the flowers and who you're inviting. It's such a different experience.
"You think, 'I'm getting married, it's a laugh'.
"But when they talk about marriage... you can tell on the girls' faces that they're not happy about it."
The singer met young girls, now part of the Common Ground Initiative, who were still so traumatised by their experiences they were stunned into an impenetrable silence.
"A lot of the girls wouldn't even speak," Rochelle says. "Not even to each other because they just don't have a voice.
"The first interview we did really quite upset me. I thought, 'Oh no… hold it together, hold it together' It was just really emotional.
"A lot of the girls are abused over there and the things that they've been through were kind of unimaginable.
"Many are younger than my sister, they have kids and they look like they're so small and you think, 'How the hell are you coping?' It's surreal."
Back in the UK, Rochelle is tying up the loose ends surrounding her wedding to Marvin later this month, after the couple got engaged on holiday in the Maldives on New Year's Eve.
Rochelle says her experiences in Tanzania have made her appreciate her lot in life even more than she already did. "Not even just the relationship – in life," she says. "The poverty out there... The reason it all happens is poverty in the first place.
"Their parents fail them from a really young age because they're so poor.
"Child marriage is considered a common way of helping families financially, as fathers are paid what's called a 'bride price' – a gift of cattle from the groom. Sadly, many girls are left destitute, divorced or widowed with children to feed. One girl's dad was so ill he needed to go to hospital. But they were so poor – she just didn't have a choice.
"They couldn't afford it so they then sold her to her husband. It does make you value everything here.
"We're so lucky back in the UK. We don't have a clue how hard life can be for girls and young women."
Among the women the two Saturdays stars met was 18-year-old Magreth, who was forced to marry a much older man at 11.
"It breaks my heart to think that while girls in the UK her age were having sleepovers, she became a mother at the tender age of 12," says Rochelle. The youngster's dream of completing school and becoming a lawyer ended as she was made to travel hundreds of miles from her village to live with a stranger in the country's busiest city.
Rochelle says: "Terrified and alone, she was left locked up in their home for days on end. On her husband's return he would brutally beat her, even when she was pregnant."
Eventually, helped by a neighbour, Magreth managed to escape with her three children and reported him to the police.
Workers, aided by Comic Relief and co-funded by the UK government, are trying to empower young girls and women using projects such as the Children's Dignity Forum.
Supported by FORWARD, a UK based organisation run by people of African heritage, they aim to give girls the confidence to challenge impending marriages and the prospect of children while they are still children themselves.
Rochelle says: "It was started by an incredible woman called Dr Monica Mhojam who was born and raised in a Tanzanian village where child marriage was common.
"She now lives in Scotland with her family but her African heritage means that she has a deep understanding of the culture and communities here. Dignified and strong, Monica explained that girls often become second, third, fourth or fifth wives and can be subjected to regular abuse by their husbands and worked like slaves because they're bottom of the pecking order.
"She realised that the key to helping young girls, was to teach them that they can take control of their lives and decisions that affect them.
"Enabling them to choose when to start a family is empowering and significantly improves their life chances.
"Delaying early marriage and pregnancy allows them to complete their education and get a good job."
The project helped Magreth get back on her feet, encouraging her to go back to school so can still pursue a career in law. Now, she is part of a team who visit primary and secondary schools to spread the message via a network of 14 girls' clubs.
Rochelle says: "I met Magreth's mum, Prisca, who told me that although she too had to marry at 11 she did not wish the same for her daughter or grandchildren. I was really moved and felt it was a ground-breaking moment. Hopefully, the cycle of child marriage ends with Magreth."
Rochelle adds: "She told me that no one would force her or her daughter to do anything ever again.
"Although I was in tears listening to stories like Magreth's, you can really see the positive impact the project is having there.
"Fewer children are being forced to marry and become mothers at such a young age. The girls have the knowledge and strength to report abuses to the police. They wouldn't have that voice if it wasn't for projects like the Children's Dignity Forum and the work of Africans living in the UK. Every girl we met changed their life for the better, despite everything."
Rochelle and her bandmate are already planning to return to the areas they visited earlier this year.
She says: "It was a real eye-opener. Me and Vanessa would like to go back again. I'm pleased that we've raised awareness because you feel a little bit helpless once you're there.
"We had our cameras and didn't think we were changing anything, but since we've been back we've been raising awareness. We spoke about maybe going somewhere else. We want to go to Uganda as well." But for now, Rochelle has her own marriage to her 27-year-old fiance to look forward to.
She says: "I was so happy to see Marvin when I landed at Heathrow and I'm counting the days till we get married. I hope that one day soon all girls in Tanzania will be able to enjoy the same feeling."
* Educating girls and delaying early pregnancies are just two of the ways the Common Ground Initiative, co-funded by Comic Relief and UK aid, is helping. To find out more, visit www.comicrelief.com or www.dfid.gov.uk/changinglives

Fools for Tragedy's 'Lysistrata' misses the big picture
Here's a plan for stopping men from slaughtering one another in seemingly endless wars: Bring all the women together and declare a sex strike, to be continued until the guys bury the hatchet and make peace.
Writing during the disastrous Peloponnesian War, Aristophanes turned this idea into "Lysistrata," a wickedly funny but now rarely performed farce. »Read Full Article

You step outside on your porch, and a crisp breeze brushes through your hair.
Its a beautiful, summer day the kind of day you might want to spend out on the open water.
Today continues National Safe Boating Week an annual program led by the National Safe Boating Council.
The week started on Saturday and will end on Friday.
This week is the official launch of the North American Safe Boating Campaign. This year-long campaign promotes safe and responsible boating, according to Rachel Johnson, council executive director.
Area officials also encourage and practice year-long safety.
Safety across sea
Barry Sroka of Aiken has been an American Sailing Association instructor since 2001 and an instructor evaluator since 2006.
Late last year, he was sent to China to certify three schools.
One reason was because the schools wanted the international recognition the Association provides, Sroka said.
He visited a school in Dalian, one in Shanghai and one in Xiamen.
They have to have certain mandates before I get there, Sroka said.
Some of those mandates include efficient offices, classrooms and well-maintained boats.
They had great boats, Sroka recalled.
He evaluated the schools in Dalian and in Shanghai.
When he went to Xiamen, though, Sroka was asked to do a bit more.
There were seven sailors who wanted to become American Sailing Association-certified instructors.
With the help of a translator, Sroka and his class went through written tests and reviewing charts.
The tests were converted to Mandarin but the charts stayed in English.
I had to go out sailing with them, Sroka said. These seven guys were a hoot ... and were extremely great sailors.
Sroka also reviewed the students teaching abilities.
They all took turns doing straight presentations, Sroka recalled. I told them that wasnt going to work.
There needed to be interplay between the class and teachers, Sroka further explained to his students.
In their culture, theres the instructor, and then theres the student, he said. There is no interaction.
After some efforts, Sroka broke this traditional structure.
When they got warmed up, they started having fun, he said. We had a great time.
Safety here
The American Sailing Association is just one organization that advocates boat safety.
The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is another example, according to Jim McMenamin of the Auxiliarys CSRA chapter.
Public Education is one of the key activities of the Coast Guard Auxiliary, according to its website.
Some basic tips McMenamin offers include:
Take a boat safety class. Both organizations offer them.
Before you go out on the water, make sure your boat is well-equipped. This means it has a working radio, a navigation system (maps, GPS), emergency signals (flairs, pennants) and fitted life-jackets.
Study the chart of the area beforehand. This will help you familiarize yourself with the areas hazards and its general layout.
Check the weather. If a storm is expected, try to stay out of the water until it is expected to pass.
Make a float plan. This emergency plan should include the basics of your trip like when are you leaving, where are you going and how long you expect to be gone. This plan should be given to someone on shore, just in case something happens while you are at sea.
Take a cell phone, if possible. Regardless, turn your boats radio to Channel 16 the emergency frequency.
Take another person with you. This person can help look out for impending dangers, for other boats, etc.
If bad weather does strike, find a cove and wait it out.

Networks want viewers to watch now
Big events -- that's the buzzword at the TV networks.
Networks are adjusting to the changed world of how people watch their programs: hours or weeks later on DVR, online or on-demand.
But the industry's financial structure hasn't caught up yet, so viewers who watch when a program is first aired -- once the only way to watch -- are considered more valuable.
That's why Fox is putting on a live production of "Grease" and NBC is remaking "The Music Man." Fox is recreating an Evel Knievel motorcycle jump. ABC touts its Oscars telecast and other awards shows.
NBC locked up Olympics rights through 2032, and CBS won a bidding war to show NFL football on Thursday night.
Sports usually gets little or no attention in network sales pitches to advertisers. Not this year. ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox all gave sports a starring role. Why? Very few people DVR sports events.
ABC made the point explicit with a message on a wide video screen: "Your DVR can't handle live."
"We're obsessed with trying to eventize everything we can -- even episodes of our scripted shows," said Robert Greenblatt, NBC's entertainment chief.
"It's about the urgency to view," said Fox's Kevin Reilly.
A grand finale won't be enough for CBS' outgoing comedy "Two and a Half Men." The network wants a season's worth of special episodes.
David Letterman's retirement will be a "yearlong celebration of Dave." CBS producers have been told to push the envelope, said Nina Tassler, entertainment president, like the surprise death of Will Gardner on a March episode of "The Good Wife."
"It's important to keep your fans engaged," Tassler said.

On Tap Today: Some talk, a film, a book, a drink and art
Today at noon, the guys at The Disclaimer, a half-hour talk radio show on WMSE-FM (91.7), plan to chat about Dan Bice's recent "No Quarter" column about the increases that Summerfest's CEO Don Smiley has enjoyed in recent years and the process behind it. You can read Bice's column (and the 200 comments) here. You can stream the show, featuring Ryan Schleicher of WMSE, Matt Wild of the A.V. Club Milwaukee and Evan Rytlewski of the Shepherd Express, here.
Later this evening, Milwaukee Film's members-only screening happens at the Oriental at 7 p.m. David Edelstein of New York Magazine described tonight's film, "Cesar Must Die?" this way: "In a scant hour and a quarter it enlarges your notion of what theater and cinema, what art itself, can do — it dissolves every boundary it meets." It's hard to imagine missing that, right? Still, the screening is for members only, folks, and space is limited. If you want in on the deal, email email@example.com and find out how to become a member. »Read Full Blog Post

Star French chef visits heartland at Grain Exchange
At the risk of ruffling feathers in Chicago, Chef Daniel Boulud spent two days in Milwaukee to present his eighth cookbook, "Daniel: My French Cuisine" this week at The Grain Exchange alongside longtime friend and former Wynn restaurants cohort, Chef Paul Bartolotta.
The visit was one of harmonious intersection — a "perfect storm," according to Boulud's spokeswoman. Not only did Boulud bring 325 Milwaukeeans a taste of modern French cuisine from Daniel, his three-star Michelin restaurant in New York; he also gave local chefs an opportunity to rub elbows with and cook alongside his culinary team. »Read Full Article(3)
