Gear Up: Top men's bindings for under $200
When it comes to snowboarding, confidence is key. Trust that your gear is keeping you secure as you huck yourself in the halfpipe, or carve out a slice of backcountry is absolutely essential. Know what else is essential? Finding solid gear that you can buy without relegating yourself to McDonalds' dollar menu for the rest of the season. We care about your health, and we also want you on board as much as physically possible.
So here you have it! We've rounded up 5 of the top men's bindings for under $200. Below you will find top brands with bindings that are lacking only one significant thing: a hefty price tag.
Flux TT-JSLV Bindings
While the TT-JSLV binding is tagged up with out-of-this-world graphics, it is also decked out with more tangibly rad features, like an Alpha high back for standard response, and convenient tool-less straps. Built to withstand even the most intense skate-influenced riding, this binding can handle everything from hefty drops to technical jibbing thanks to 3D cushion base-plates, which help to maintain a pressure-free atmosphere.
Technine Elements Pro Bindings
Presenting a freestyle-focus flex with the scrub high-back, the Elements Pro binding will handle business on mega booters, triple-kinks and everywhere in- between. Versitality on the fly is prime with the option to swap out the soft scrub high-back for the Park Destroyer high-back to allow improved response and reinforcement to dominate the rest of the mountain with ease. After long hours of non-stop lapping your feet will be feeling fresh with the full-length baseplate padding and EVA footbed cushions to quiet down the noise till the fat lady sings.
Burton Mission Bindings
Burton's Mission binding has been around for a solid ten years, giving riders a binder with a comfort level normally found in high-end models and a mid-range response for handling anything you can throw at it all while still hitting a price point you can't beat in snowboarding. If your pockets are stretched thin but you're in dire need of a new way to hold yourself to a board, check out the Burton Mission.
K2 Formula Bindings
Success on the mountain boasts a simple formula: it's staring right at you! The K2 Formula binding features a Rocklock highback designed with asymmetrical shaping to complement your natural stance for optimal comfort. Responsive Pro-Fusion GF baseplates provide insane control over your snowboard, and EZ-Set toe straps give you the option to dial in over the top of your boot or around the toe. In short, K2 has created a binding to keep your comfort and stoke at an all time high, day in and day out.
Union Force Bindings
The bindings of choice for both Cale Zima and Dan Brisse, you're free to up the ante with the Force on board. A hefty base plate matched with a medium-flex means next level heel control, while the simply fact that they're Union approved inspires confidence in that fact that these bindings are both durable and dependable. Ride on.
Rome United Snowboard Bindings
Rome's United binding certainly live up to their name, uniting all different types of terrain and giving you the freedom to explore the mountain, from peak to park. Specs: an asymetrical highback, lightweight construction & contour heel strap; step into these and you're set for the season.

Tel Aviv (Jan. 13)
— Israeli exports rose by 22.4 percent in 1980, reaching $5.326 billion, the Central Bureau of Statistics announced. The main increase was in industrial exports which rose by 30 percent (to $3.299 billion) followed by diamonds by 15 percent (to $1.4 billion) agricultural exports rose only four percent, to $576 million.
About half of the increase in value was due to dollar inflation, as industrial exports by volume rose by only 14 percent without diamonds, which rose in volume by eight percent to 2,326 million carats. Agricultural exports fell in volume by 10 percent.

Ron Johnson's highly publicized short tenure at J.C. Penney, or JCP, as it was rebranded, will certainly make it into the textbooks and graduate theses on what to do and what not to do when undertaking a significant retail business transformation. The primary failure was not putting customer needs first in what promised to be an excellent long term strategy. Oops — forget the customer in an omni-channel customer strategy?
What a colossal mistake!

Nate diaz didn't come close to submitting Benson in all five rounds but Pettis submitted him in less than a round.

Sky win 2007 Premiership TV rights
BSkyB's domination of Premier League television rights will continue after the Premier League announced the satellite broadcaster will screen at least half of the 138 live matches from 2007 to 2010.
Sky have been awarded the rights for three of the six packages of 23 games each, and are favourite to win a second round of bidding within the next fortnight for two more packages.
Under a deal struck by the League with the European Commission, Sky will be limited to a maximum of five packages, or 115 matches.
The League said in a statement: ``Following the submission of bids by interested parties, the FA Premier League is in a position to announce that it has awarded three out of the six packages of live rights to BSkyB. We will be proceeding to a second round of bidding for the remaining three packages in due course.
'There will be no further comment on this from the Premier League until the conclusion of the second round of bidding. Bidders are also bound by similar confidentiality.'
The next round of bidding is likely to take place at the end of next week or the beginning of the week after that.
A number of other broadcasters are also competing and Irish pay TV operator Setanta are favourites to secure the other package. Other companies including cable firm NTL, ITV and Channel 4 are also understood to have bid.
The EC reached an agreement with the Premier League in March to end Sky's monopoly of live matches.
The commitment, which will remain in force until 2013, is aimed at increasing competition and providing a better service to football fans.
It ended a long-running legal dispute in which the Commission said current arrangements deprived fans of choice, led to higher prices and discouraged innovation.
The deal also increased the availability of rights to broadcast via mobile phones.

The long and short of it
Related topics
It's all about sevens as rugby neophytes China, dazzled by the Olympic rings, focus mainly on 'the short game'. Yet against all odds, including government indifference, the national 15-a-side team have moved up the Asian totem pole.
Led by old warhorse Johnny Zhang Zhiqiang, China defeated Guam 28-18 in the final of the HSBC Asian Five Nations Division Three tournament in Jakarta last weekend to earn promotion to Division Two next year and move up two places in the world rankings to 63. The win has raised faint hopes that the game on the mainland will not be engulfed by sevens mania.
'I still hold out hope for the 15s game in China, although today everything is about sevens,' says the 38-year-old Zhang, who was recalled from retirement to lead an attempt to climb back into the top echelon of Asian rugby, alongside the likes of Japan, Hong Kong and South Korea, whose company they once kept.
Like Zhang, China's coach, Zheng Hongjun, believes the road ahead is fraught with pitfalls. 'The government's focus is now firmly on sevens,' Zheng said. 'The main challenges facing the 15s game are funds and the availability of players, both of which go primarily to sevens.'
In March 1997, China was welcomed as the 76th member of the International Rugby Board by the late Vernon Pugh at a small ceremony at Hong Kong Football Club. Pugh, a barrister by trade, was the first elected chairman of the world governing body. He was a visionary and dreamed that by 2020 China would be a force in Asia, and on the world stage. He also felt that if rugby was to truly become global, it needed to be in the Olympics.
If the likeable Welshman was around today, he would have seen one of his predictions being realised. As for China, those hopes have failed to materialise. Instead of progressing, China's 15s game has gone through a turbulent period in recent years.
Zhang hopes Jakarta 2011 will be the turning point. The former skipper of the national sevens team - he holds the IRB record for the most number of points scored at the Hong Kong Sevens - is a diehard supporter of 15s as it allows a player to develop all-round skills. 'I think 15s is a great platform for personal development and learning key skills such as teamwork and communication,' Zhang said. 'The longer version is the best training ground for learning the fundamentals of rugby, and our win in Jakarta gives me renewed hope for 15s.'
Zhang played a pivotal role in the triumph, scoring a hat-trick of tries and 18 points, but it once again showed China still depends on individual brilliance, and teamwork is a long way off.
Since the announcement that sevens had become an Olympic sport, 12 of China's 22 provinces have already taken it up in preparation for the 2013 China National Games in Liaoning province.
Next to the Olympics, the National Games is regarded as the most important and prestigious multi-sports event for athletes. Not only does it give the champion province bragging rights for four years, it is also the grooming ground for the future batch of Olympians.
'There are 12 provinces now fielding sevens teams and these players are treated royally by the provincial governments,' says Jarrad Gallagher, IRB's regional development manager for Asia. 'All the emphasis in rugby is on sevens and the government is backing it right to the hilt. This has also opened the door for more people to play rugby.'
Sevens has quickly acquired the aura of elitism, with the provincial teams built around a couple of members of the national sevens team.
'The players have a guaranteed lifestyle until 2013 with the provinces. They are at an elite level and they get respect and everything along with it,' Gallagher said.
Yet, this focus on sevens is helping to raise the profile of rugby, and by default the 15-a-side game, according to Zhang, who earned his spurs in the Hong Kong First Division league when he turned out for DeA Tigers.
'This is what China needs: a strong and vibrant domestic 15s competition. It is only the universities and the army [PLA] who play 15s, and now with the national focus on sevens, 15-a-side has taken a back seat,' Zhang said.
The team in Jakarta comprised mostly students from China Agricultural University in Beijing, the fount of the game in the mainland.
'We came together for a two-week training camp prior to the tournament. Usually we train two to three times a week, but it is not always possible,' said coach Zheng.
Li Haiyang, 21, is in his first year of university. Two years ago, he was drafted into the rugby team and last weekend he was playing for the national side. Such quick progress from novice to national player can only happen in China.
'The government's focus is definitely on sevens, but at university it's all about 15s. It is a well-liked sport and interest is growing rapidly,' said Li, a second-rower from China Agricultural University. 'I just want to continue to work hard and earn more opportunities to play for the national side.'
While the provinces will concentrate on bringing on sevens players, Zheng revealed that the China Rugby Association was still intent on developing the 15s game.
'Our intention is to link 15s to the universities and the army. Our ultimate aim will be to get back into the top division in the Asian Five Nations,' Zheng said.
That first step on the road back has been taken thanks mainly to Zhang, who played in China's first international fixture in 1997 when China lost 33-3 to Singapore.
At the time, the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union's then technical director George Simpkin, who had been instrumental in taking the game into the mainland in 1991 when 100 Chinese rugby players from Hong Kong travelled to play a series of games against the Guangzhou Agricultural University, said the way forward was to establish a league structure.
That never materialised due to lack of funds, and although China made progress, even famously defeating Hong Kong in a test match once, the game continued to struggle for funds and legitimacy. As it does today with all the money and focus on sevens.
Recently, Japanese sportswear giant Mizuno signed a deal with the Chinese Rugby Association - for sevens.
'The only problem with this is that if players only stick to playing sevens, they won't be able to draw upon the benefit of 15s,' said Gallagher.
Zhang is the case in point.

Configuring the email router with CRM Online and Exchange Online
I followed the steps documented here
However when I click test access I get the following error
Incoming Status: Failure - The remote Microsoft Exchange e-mail server returned the error "(401) Unauthorized". Verify that you have permission to connect to the mailbox. The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.
Outgoing Status: Failure - The E-mail Router service configuration parameter "EmailAddress" is missing. This parameter is required.
Any idea how to fix this?

ok, I have further information on this.
When I actually log onto the Exchange Online Account I see that a draft email message has been created but not sent. When I manually open the draft email and click send I see the following error
You don't have the permissions required to send messages from this mailbox.
I am having the exact same issue. If you switch the outgoing to SMTP, and setup the server to be your owa server, then try to send the email out, be sure to check the TLS box, and change the outbound port to 567 in the advanced setting.s LEt me know if it is succesful. I am still trying to get the 401 issue fixed. My email router was working great for about a month, and then just started doing this out of the blue. I did check the permissions on the mailbox, and everythign seems to be correct.
I think it was from an update to exchange or somethign and the documentation hasnt caiught up with it. I think it is realted to remote-powwershell commands in Office 365. I have enabled my user that we are ucing for the CRM router to have full access to the mailboxes, and can open every other user's mailbox from OWA.
Someone has to know how to fix this...
I connected to outlook and gave delegate access rights also, but still I am unable to get this done. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

I spent about 3 hours on the phone with CRM support and they couldnt get it working either. I went on holiday for a week, and he sent me an email saying he thought he had figured it out. He did. It is all about the URL. The autodiscover did not work. But, if you go to OWA and get the POD server that your mailbox is located on , and insert it into the following URL, you should be able to start sending and receiving via the CRM email router. Sorry this took so long to figure out....
Mine ended up being:
Please let me know if this resolves your issue. Again, this is for exchange online, and CRM online.

Hi there,
We've also been fighting with this error. We do have the URL to be https://pod51011.outlook.com/ews/exchange.asmx, and it still gives that 401 error. If we change things to be POP3/SMTP, it works fine (but then we have to create a profile for each email address, which is a pain).
This was working for about a week and then it broke this past weekend out of the blue....
Any thoughts?
I'm having the same problem - we migrated to Office 365 yesterday and the CRM router worked fine until 7PM last night then suddenly stopped (with HTTP 401 errors) and I haven't been able to get it working since. I recreated the incoming and outgoing profiles and rebooted the CRM server but this hasn't helped. I tried accessing the exchange.asmx service using IE and strangely this works fine. A few hours before everything stopped this error was logged in the Application log (which may or may not be relevant):
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Exchange Web Services are not currently available for this request because none of the Client Access Servers in the destination site could process the request.
I've checked our pod number and this hasn't changed so think we can rule this out.
In the meantime I'll have to switch to using SMTP / POP3 but would prefer to use the EWS if at all possible so any assistance in getting this fixed would be much appreciated.
I was running into the same issue here and went down the path of configuring the power shell and updating the permissions on the mailbox along with everything else. I eventually got it working after installing and configured RU 8 for the email router.. hope this helps!

Hearing to continue in November in slaying of Fort Smith woman
FORT SMITH, Ark. (AP) - A man charged with killing a Fort Smith woman in Oklahoma told police in a recorded interview that he slit the victim's throat.
The Times Record reports (http://bit.ly/1gIEM4q ) that the interview with 25-year-old Elvis Thacker was played Wednesday during Thacker's preliminary hearing in Le Flore County District Court in Poteau.
Defense attorney Gretchen Mosley said Thacker was susceptible to manipulation and suggestion when he was interviewed.
Thacker and his brother, 24-year-old Johnathen Thacker, are charged with first-degree murder and sodomy in the September 2010 death of 22-year-old Briana Ault. Ault's body was found in a pond in Pocola with her throat cut.
Both men have pleaded not guilty.
The preliminary hearing for Elvis Thacker is to resume Nov. 13. Johnathen Thacker was previously ordered to stand trial.

If you are in the market for a Hoboken penthouse overlooking the New York City skyline, one belonging to a former New Jersey governor has just hit the market and can be yours for just $2.9 million.
Former governor Jon Corzine, chairman of the bankrupt MF Global Holding Ltd., has put his Maxwell Place penthouse on the market for 11 percent less than what he paid for it in 2008, according to a Bloomberg news agency report.
The two-bedroom penthouse is 2,400 square feet "with no expense spared," according to the listing. It has floor-to-ceiling windows with a view of the Hudson River and the Manhattan skyline, Viking kitchen appliances and a Jacuzzi spa in the master bathroom. The owner also gets one indoor parking space.
The apartment has a $1,700 monthly maintenance fee and property taxes of $38,003, according to the listing.
Corzine bought the property in 2008 for $3.26 million, according to property listings.
Corzine's spokesman, Steven Goldberg, declined to comment on the listing, as did the listing agent with Halliburton Homes Real Estate Services.
According to a report in the New York Post, Corzine has been staying in the Manhattan apartment of his wife, Sharon Elghanayan.

The Revolution Starts Here
Although gaming in the near future appears to be making evolutionary, tiptoe progress (with the exception of presentation and graphical prowess), the idea of a gaming revolution permeates all discussion of next generation hardware. The upcoming Xbox 360 and Nintendo Revolution explicitly imply this. Gamers have to ask, however, what kind of revolution will this be?
Although Nintendo's revolution, whilst shrouded in mystery and typical Nintendo stubbornness, will probably revolve around the way in which we actually play games (through their controversially designed controller), Microsoft and Sony's gaming revolution will more likely come in the form of increased consumer choice regarding how we purchase and consume media itself. Bungie's Multiplayer Map Pack for Halo 2, in this context, is an important and challenging release for Microsoft. It is an experiment and a precursor to how Microsoft will operate in the next generation of consoles, making us question just how the Xbox 360 is going to work from both a gaming and business standpoint.
Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack
US: Jul 2007
The pack itself consists of nine new maps for online or split screen play, and is available for both retail purchase and as downloadable content via Xbox Live. It also contains a short Halo movie and a mini documentary on the making of the new maps. However, the patch that is contained on the disc is much more interesting, seeing as how it balances out some of the gross differences between certain weapon types. This too was available for download prior to the release of the expansion pack.
The adjustments actually improve gameplay, making certain weapons more powerful, adjusting splash effects of grenades, and other game balance issues. But what I find most fascinating is the way in which this product has been presented for consumption. The Xbox Live service is without a doubt the single major contribution Microsoft has made to the evolution of gaming. And the success of this map pack simultaneously validates and expands upon the use of this service, resulting in what is clearly an indicator for the direction Microsoft is heading with its next console. While some gamers will pluck this one from store shelves, many others have already downloaded it. And recent news indicates that next-gen consoles will distribute games and other media in the same manner. At the very least patches and further game content will be available on all systems.
Players were able to download an entire updated level for the original Splinter Cell, but imagine if you could download games episodically, consuming parts on a weekly basis like a television show. The Xbox Live service, and the way in which it is brining the Internet to console gaming, will ultimately be Microsoft's trump card in the next-gen wars. The success of the map pack proves that Microsoft has the infrastructure and the know-how to sell online updates to a mass audience.
The actual maps are, as you would expect, impeccably designed. Almost every location has at least two routes that irritating campers can be attacked from (so don't even think about crouching there with the sword, mister). There's nothing quite as multidimensional as the masterpiece that is Lockout, but the new maps have there own charm and, more importantly, their own gameplay focus—that is to say these maps have each been designed with a specific game type in mind.
This is simultaneously the map pack's major success and its greatest failing. Relic, for example, is a great map if you want to play Capture the Flag, but useless for almost anything else. Utilizing an interactive teleport system, the map is amazingly dynamic. The teleporter transports players from the attacking teams base to the defending teams base (and vice versa), but can only be used once opened, via a switch. When attempting to steal the flag, the attacking team will want to open the teleporter in order to more easily transfer the flag to home base, however they will wish they had left it closed when the flag is almost home and players come streaming through the teleporter in a last gasp attempt to defend the flag. This makes for very interesting flag battles, but in Team Slayer this device is ineffective and pointless, and the map's open structure makes it far too easily dominated by snipers.
Backwash suffers a similar fate. Surrounded by a beautifully executed fog, the map is perfect for close quarter battles. Players can't see each other until they are well within range of even the most close quarter weapons, and this makes for a more reaction based frag-fest, as opposed to the more strategic, planned attacks that you can make in open environments. It is, however, hard to see this map being useful for any other game type besides Slayer. Game types such as Assault or Capture the Flag are pretty much defunct here, and the inclusion of the controversial Covenant Plasma Sword, which is deadly at close ranges, can often make this map a little unbalanced.
Some maps do retain the exquisite balance and versatility of original maps like Ivory Tower or Midship, and the map Turf is a perfect example of this. As a basic Team Slayer map this works perfectly. There are open areas, vulnerable to sniper fire, but also many sneaky ways to attack the sniper from behind; and although there are many areas where dual-wielding point-and-hope beginners could possibly catch a more experienced player unawares, there are also plenty of hiding spots that make it easy to take cover and plan a sneaky counter attack. This map this is a dream to play, and is possibly the first map where the territories play perfectly—it really is one of the best maps ever created for Halo.
On all levels, as a map expansion and as a media distribution experiment, the map pack is a resounding success. As we look back at gaming history, Halo will ultimately be remembered as the game that single-handedly made Microsoft a major player in the console market. Halo was the system seller, whilst Halo 2 was the game that ultimately sold people on Xbox Live and Internet gaming in general. The map pack, however, really shows and proves that media can be distributed to a console audience in a new and innovative way—hat will be its legacy.

Good Morning DINKS. Today we are discussing exactly how far we would go to make money. We aren't talking about stealing money or about taking anything that is not ours, we are talking about moral and immoral ways to earn our own money. Would you lie to your spouse about where money came from? Would you hide money from your spouse that you earned immorally? We will see!
A recent scandal to hit the news worldwide is the Rupert Murdoch newspaper scandal involving obtaining confidential information illegally, and definitely immorally. Illegally obtaining confidential information gave Rupert Murdoch the headlines that he needed to sell newspapers and make a lot of money with News of the World. Because they immorally obtained confidential information by hacking into the private phone lines of citizens, News of the World was the first newspaper to publish breaking news stories. Although Rupert Murdoch claims to have no prior knowledge of the illegally obtained information and phone hacking scandal he recently decided to stop printing the newspaper.
The financial services industry has also seen its share of immoral activities for the personal gain of some dishonest people. I absolutely understand that it may be tempting to indulge ourselves in the wealth of others, but once again the impact can be catastrophic. Investment Brokers are paid a commission on a per transaction basis, this could sometimes bring up the moral question if they are really carrying out business in their clients best interest. We are discussing making immoral transactions for a personal profit; we are not even talking about the many Financial Advisors who have actually stolen money from their clients for their own personal gain and use.
So many financial and news media scandals are tragic because innocent bystanders are indirectly impacted. The Rupert Murdoch scandal impacted hundreds of employees as well as Rupert Murdoch's family media empire. This could be a very disastrous ending to a family man's life work.
As DINKS we all have a special someone in our lives. Would you still take the risk of profiting from immoral activities if you knew that the repercussions could also impact your spouse? I can definitely say the answer is no. I may act on my own behalf, but I would never put my boyfriend Nick in harm's way, even if it meant we were poor and not rich.
Would you obtain information illegally or profit from the loss of others for your own personal gain? Would you do it if there was no way you could ever be caught? We all love money and everyone hustles for their own personal gain; but there is a difference from having a side hustle and hustling on the side.
Here are some other Moral and Money Dilemma posts from DINKS Finance:

where is the cheapest place to get mini helmets. as i need a titans and colts. please help me.
Hard to do better than eBay, you just have to watch the prices of closed items to get a feel for what you should pay. Plus, you can do a completed listings search to see what recently closed item sold for. Peyton has done signings with Gridiron Authentics and those mini-helmets usually sell for less than $100.
Here's a link to a recent Peyton mini-helmet that sold for $61:

PS--Stay away from Peyton items that aren't from Gridiron, Mounted Memories, or Upper Deck as there is a TON of fake Peyton autos out there.

Screamin' Reels - May 26, 2014
- Written by Derek Anderson
Spring is here and it's time to get out and fish Woodinville!
There are still great trout fishing opportunities in area lakes such as Cottage Lake. Fishing for trout is a great way to introduce your kids to the great sport of fishing in the outdoors. The lakes were stocked with plenty of fish which means they will keep the kids interested and keep them busy. You can check in with the local sporting goods stores located in downtown Woodinville to get a very simple setup that will help you be productive with your kids at the lake. Remember to get the required fishing license while picking up your gear.
June 1 is the Skykomish River steelhead opener and the river is looking good. With this warmer weather over the last few weeks an early snow melt came and went and the river is back to the emerald green that all steelhead fishermen love. The forecast from Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife for the Skykomish steelhead is very much the same as last season with good returns expected. That means a three to seven fish day on average for Screamin' Reels Guide Service's customers. We fish ultra-light tackle for these amazing sea run rainbow trout that average seven to 12 pounds. The method used to catch these fish is called free drifting which means we cast our baits towards shore and drift down the quiet river and move from hole to hole. When the fish pick up the bait, an easy hook set is all you need then hang on as the fish put on an acrobatic fight which lasts five to 10 minutes per fish. These fish are amazingly fast and can run from one side of the river to the other in just seconds! Give us a call to book your exciting day on the river with Screamin' Reels!
Tight Lines, Derek Anderson

How To: Sheet Music Tree
This week on Pinterest, I came across a really adorable scrap book paper tree from Two Girls Being Crafty (via Everyday Mom Ideas). I loved the concept, so I decided to turn it into a completely upcycled project by using reclaimed sheet music instead of scrap book paper!
What You Will Need:
1. Sheet music. I used the same sheet music that I used for my Sheet Music Bottle, Recycled Paper Mother's Day Brooch, and Music Wall Art. You could also use other recycled paper like newspaper, magazines, etc.
2. Sticks
3. Scissors
4. Hot glue gun/hot glue
5. Jar or vase. I used an old jar that I had on hand.
6. Pencil
How To Do It:
1. Go outside and find some sticks! This would be a great activity for your children to do so they can feel a part of the project. Put the sticks in your jar and trim them according to the height you would like.
2. Draw leaves onto your sheet music.
3. Then, cut them out. Make sure you cut out various sizes. I asked my roommates to help me draw them so that they were random.
4. Hot glue your leaves onto your sticks. Keep turning your vase/jar of sticks so that you don't miss any spots.
You're finished! Now you can put your sheet music tree as a decoration on a dresser/side table or you can use it as a centerpiece. I could even see this as a centerpiece at a rustic or shabby chic wedding if you added something to the jar!
What would you use a sheet music tree for? Share your ideas on our Facebook wall or in the comment section below!

VW Tiguan First Drive
Have driven a few at work and I like these...nice to sit a few inches higher and the ingress/egress is just to slide over, perfect for folks like me with spinal issues. Might check out a used one I saw at the local BMW store as it is a nicely equipped SE model in that red color that is really stunning! Could be just the one!

Drove a SE model today at Rick Case VW in Weston Florida and was very impressed with the vehicle but it is a bit pricey. Outward visibility is excellent and the leatherette seats are very nice. Not a fan of the 2.0 turbo and glad I bought my 2.4 Hyundai Tuscon...a much better vehicle for me at this point. Got the SE version which has all the extras that I would ever want. And the price was very very good so I am a happy camper. Glad though that I did go retest the Tiguan to get it out of my system. Good job VW and good job Hyundai!

Gillette Venus Disposables Enhanced Moisture
Gillette Venus Disposables Enhanced Moisture Reviews
Great for travelI keep Gilette Venus Embrace in my shower, but I hate to drag my normal razor along when I travel (I also like to keep a travel bag of toiletries packed so make packing for trips easier). These Venus disposables are perfect for travel! If they get lost, forgotten or broken sometime during my trip it's no big deal since they are relatively inexpensive and easy to replace. They also work just as well as any other Gilette razor. I'm impressed with them! — 5 years, 8 months agotallredamanda | 433 reviews

TraumatizedThe razor i used that until now scares me is Gilette Venus the one with built in wax on both ends of the razor head (new product i suppose)its aim is to eliminate the need for any gel to make the razor glide, however,the wax when wet becomes very slimy and because the wax is a big clump,you cant see very well where the blades are going and, yes, i had the the biggest nick, is what i got,i will stick to the normal razor from now on,some improved versions just make it over the top. — 7 years, 3 months agoasianpersuasion | 5 reviews

Does not last....I had one the problem I had was the head with the moisturizer would break apart and come off long before it was actually worn out like after one use. so I think it was a waist of money. If the head part with the moisturizer would hold up better it would be a great razor. — 9 years, 3 months agoCurlyQ1 | 3 reviews

MOUNT LEMMON - The pin marking the 9,157-foot summit of this mountain is driven into the asphalt of a road that leads to a cluster of small observatory domes.
But you can't blame this partially paved peak on astronomers.
The Air Force first occupied the summit in the name of national security, beginning in 1956. It built roads to three "arctic dome" radar sites, as Tucson became part of a defensive line of 200 such installations along U.S. borders and coastlines, all watching for incoming Soviet bombers.
As the Cold War deepened in the 1960s, it added three communications masts, blasting into the granite bedrock to mine 85-feet-deep bunkers to protect two of them. If needed, the towers could have burst from their bunkers to relay orders to 18 Titan missile sites around Tucson that stood ready to launch intercontinental ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads.
Eventually relations with the Soviet Union improved and the Air Force left Mount Lemmon in 1972. University of Arizona planetary scientists and astronomers, who had already established observatories on two lower peaks, moved to the summit and took over the buildings left behind by the 150 officers and airmen who had been stationed there.
The importance of the collection of relatively small telescopes known as the Catalina Observatories would ebb and flow over the years, but the mountain is in the midst of a minor Renaissance.
• The Catalina Sky Survey, which operates a 60-inch telescope on the summit and a 30-inch Schmidt telescope on nearby Mount Bigelow, has become NASA's champion finder of near-Earth objects (NEOs).
In every year since 2005, it has discovered more than half the objects reported to NASA.
NASA, ordered by Congress to find objects that could severely impact the Earth, is paying to outfit an additional telescope that will plot the orbits of threatening meteoroids. The $4.1 million NASA grant will also upgrade all of the program's cameras.
• The Mount Lemmon Sky- Center, a public outreach arm of the UA College of Science, is gaining popularity and was recently given a new 32-inch Schulman telescope by a private donor.
• The Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) operates a 40-inch telescope robotically from Seoul, whenever the moon and clouds don't interfere.
• The University of Minnesota has continued to operate a 60-inch telescope since its infrared astronomy program began in 1972.
• Sleeping quarters on the peak have been refurbished and a conference center, complete with commercial kitchen, built.
Steward astronomer Don McCarthy hosts astronomy camps on the mountain each summer, filling the dorms with students.
The rooms are also used for SkyCenter programs and by astronomers and researchers investigating everything from hydrology to hummingbirds.
Site leased to UA
Gerard Kuiper, who founded the UA's Lunar and Planetary Lab, persuaded the U.S. Forest Service to lease the site to the UA when the Air Force left.
Steve Larson, principal investigator for the NASA-funded Catalina Sky Survey, was an undergraduate, working for Kuiper at the time.
"His selling point was it was exactly what they needed," Larson said. "When the UA got it, it had all of three people to run it."
The UA did not need all those buildings.
The Air Force dismantled the radar when it left the peak in 1969, and many of its buildings have since been demolished.
The bunkers are still there, said Chuck Penson, historian at the Titan Missile Museum.
One arctic dome remains.
Its cement pillar would be perfect for a new telescope, said Bob Peterson, assistant director for operations at the UA's Steward Observatory, which operates the site.
The rec center, which once boasted an indoor basketball court and a two-lane bowling alley with automatic pin-setters, is home to astronomers from the University of Minnesota, whose 60-inch telescope is nearby.
A two-story barracks is boarded up, and the old power plant now houses a machine shop for the observatories.
Today, electricity is supplied by Trico Electric Cooperative, through a line running the spine of the mountain's west face.
Tanks that once held diesel fuel for the power plant now hold water for fire emergencies.
Over the years, the Catalina Observatories, which Kuiper turned over to the UA's Steward Observatory in 1972, have remained a shoestring operation.
The telescopes are used for educational programs, mothballed or swapped peak-to-peak as the need for them changes.
"We play musical telescopes here," said Larson.
Viewing still good
"Seeing" atop this urbanized mountain is still fairly good, said Larson.
You can't point the telescopes to the south horizon, where the glow of Tucson is constant dusk-till-dawn, but in most directions it's still plenty dark.
Sunset is Larson's favorite time on the mountain. On a clear October afternoon, he stakes out a spot on the roof of the mothballed radar dome to watch for the green flash that sometimes appears when the sun sets behind the western mountains.
Before that, he points east. On a clear day like this, the shadow of Mount Lemmon appears as a nearly perfect cone on the landscape, stretching all the way to Mount Graham, 60 miles away.
After sunset, the contest to find near-Earth objects is on.
"We all race to the most obvious part of the sky," says astronomer Rich Kowalski.
The sweet spot for NEOs is the ecliptic plane, the path of the Earth's orbit around the sun. "All NEOs cross that plane," Kowalski says.
Tonight, the 60-inch telescope on Mount Lemmon is being pointed by Jess Johnson, a new member of the Catalina Sky Survey staff, who is being supervised by Kowalski.
To be clear: The astronomers are not actually "looking" at the sky.
They sit in a heated, lighted room attached to the telescope dome, drinking coffee and monitoring computer screens.
The computer crunches data from the telescope's digital camera to identify moving objects in a sea of fixed starshine.
It edits out previously discovered objects and satellites of human origin. It flags new objects for the astronomers' perusal.
Good candidates are forwarded to the Minor Planet Center at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory for confirmation. It issues bulletins to an army of amateur astronomers and research institutions for follow-up observations to plot the objects' orbits.
Sometimes, an approach is imminent.
Object hit earth
Kowalski holds the distinction of being the only NEO-watcher to spot one before it struck the Earth.
It exploded over the desert of northern Sudan 19 hours after Kowalski spotted it in October 2008. It was the size of a pickup truck when it entered the atmosphere. The chunks that made it to the surface were no bigger than baseballs.
Kowalski was given a small piece. "I am the first person to observe an astronomical object before it crashed to Earth. I'm also lucky enough to be the first person to own a piece of an astronomical object he discovered."
"Luck" is the operative word, Kowalski says. He just happened to draw the right shift at the right telescope, pointed in the right direction. "Anyone on the team could have been the one to see it that night."
The skill and technology needed to create such "luck" is evident on this clear October night.
Those meteors and comets have lots of places to hide in what looks to be a faint cloud covering a big swath of the night sky.
It is a cloud of stars - the hundreds of billions of suns that make up the Milky Way, our home galaxy.

I've read many articles in the last month from trusted resources in Social Media marketing that suggest Organic Reach has declined. Some argue that only a small sample of Facebook Business Pages were looked at, and so a correct analysis cannot be proven. Well, I suggest looking at your own data and seeing for yourself. Numbers do not lie my friends.
Since Facebook made their changes to EdgeRank on September 20th, I compared data from August 1st – August 31st vs. October 1st – October 31st. I took the average of the posts for those months using data I directly exported from Facebook. This is the data I compared for those dates:
In summary: it does not appear that EdgeRank has had a significant impact to our Facebook Business Page, or that Reach has decreased. The biggest change in the data above is Total Impressions, I would like to attribute this to EdgeRank but I also need to factor in my 35% decrease in ad spend for the month of October.
However, my eyes do not lie, and I do know that I have seen less likes and comments per post since September 20th. As of today I can not prove that reach has declined, but tomorrow may be another story.
If you would like to learn more about Facebook's EdgeRank changes I've posted links to many helpful articles below. What do your numbers tell you?
EdgeRank Checker:
→The only new revelation is the increase in the weight of Negative Feedback.
→So to determine if any given Page post shows up in the news feed, Facebook looks at four main factors.
SocialMedia Today:
→In plain English, basically if a post has lots likes and comments it will be shown more than posts that don't have lots of likes and comments.

Dr. M was my surgeon for breast reconstruction after a mastectomy for breast cancer. I was so worried and scared about the diagnosis when I went to my first appointment with him, but by the end of that visit, most of my concerns were gone. He is the kindest, most caring and compassionate doctor I have ever met. He took the time to discuss all the options I was considering and gave me full confidence in the course we decided on.
As my treatment continued, it was obvious that he has a passion for helping breast cancer patients. My treatment is finished now and I can honestly say that I look better now than I did before. I would trust him completely for any plastic surgery.


text: When photographing a wedding, what do people choose to wear? I've photographed a couple of weddings now as the 'official photographer', and I've always wore a suit (or shirt, tie and waistcoat at least as the jacket is often too restrictive) but I've been to several weddings this year as a family\friend guest and I've noticed the photographer has often wore an unobtrusive 'smart t-shirt' (polar neck with company name on the chest) or similar outfit - much more comfortable and practical and equally highlights him as the Official Photographer which, these days, with so many people owning DSLR's, seems to be increasingly difficult!) Equally, other weddings the photographer has been suited and booted so I don't really know what the norm is? I have a series of smart black polar neck t-shirts and sweaters with 'Ted Smith Photography' across the back that I wear at less formal occasions. I'm not sure if this would be suitable for a wedding though? What do you guys wear when photographing a wedding as the official photographer? Ted

Yesterday, Bandai Namco teased some big Dark Souls 3 news. That news is clothes.
Specifically, a set of hoodies, T-shirts, and baseball caps are now available. I will grant you, there are some nice designs there (the Venn diagram of Alive/Hollow/Dead is quite good, and if I don't forget about these within 20 minutes then I might well end up buying something because I am terrible with money) but I doubt this is quite what most people were hoping for when the publisher made their anticipation-baiting Tweet.
I'm also not quite sure what that big news could've been if it wasn't clothing. Um. Did we perhaps think this might be some details on the first bit of DLC? Or maybe they were just really excited about our spoiler-free Dark Souls 3 review, which went up earlier today? Apparently not. Clothes ahead. Visions of clothes. Try clothes. Be wary of clothes.
On the plus side, at least it's not a hot wings challenge. Clothing lines for popular games might not be what we were hoping for but they aren't exactly unheard of, while that hot wings thing may go down as one of the weirdest marketing tie-ins of the year.

I was very well prepared for the sinus surgery that I had with Dr. Nachlas. I had several issues, like my nose was bleeding for four or five days and Dr. Nachlas and his staff were great at trying to stop it. I had to go in for surgery, and since then everything has been great. My nose is great and I trust him. READ MORE

Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign banned from flying to Israel
Activists from the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign have been banned from boarding flights from the UK to Israel.
Members of the group had hoped to take part in an event in the Palestinian territories to highlight the methods used by Israeli authorities to control access to the area.
However, when they arrived at Manchester Airport to fly to Tel Aviv on Sunday morning, Jet2.com refused to allow a number of them on to the plane, even though they had booked seats.
The Israeli government is aware that 1,500 activists from around the world are planning to travel to the Palestinian territories, and apparently sent lists of people who would not be welcome to international airlines.
A spokesman for the budget carrier explained: 'Jet2.com is legally required to provide advance passenger information for all passengers departing from and arriving into the UK to the appropriate immigration authorities.
'As a result of providing that information, Jet2.com was informed by the Israeli authorities that certain passengers booked to travel on flight LS907 would not be permitted to enter Israel.'
Twelve people intending to take part in the Welcome to Palestine protest were permitted to board the flight, but a spokeswoman for the group said around 70 others had begun a demonstration at Manchester Airport about the ban.

Fantasy Beat
The 'Predicting Pedro' Problem
Rumors swirled for days and even continued through the All-Star break, but Pedro Martinez is now officially a Philadelphia Philly. It is to be seen just how much help he provides to their rotation, but, at the least, they picked up a pitcher at low cost financially. Whether or not the cost in production and run value will be as kind as that of the contract is something I want to look at today. Just like in real baseball, there never seems to be enough pitching in a fantasy league, so news that someone with Pedro's history was now available is big; will he be able to provide you with the quality innings you crave, or is Pedro's time as a useful pitcher over?
Pedro's first season with the Mets in 2005 went well enough, as he posted an ERA of 2.82 and an FIP of 2.95. He lost nearly a strikeout per inning against the previous year, but he also shaved nearly the same rate of walks off as well, and kept the ball in the yard. He brought the punchouts back up in 2006, but saw both his walks and homers increase; his 4.48 ERA was high given his peripherals, but his 4.05 FIP was a career high and the highest it had been since 1995 with the Expos. Pedro would toss just 28 innings in 2007 due to injuries, but they were fine innings. The problem I have is the sample size: Pedro didn't allow a single homer, which was out of line with what he had been doing the previous three seasons and in the next, when they were his downfall.
Pedro managed to throw 109 innings in 2008, but with some numbers that make you wonder about how well he will do in 2009. He struck out 7.2 hitters per nine, the lowest rate of his career. He handed out free passes to 41 batters-he walked 44 in 217 innings during his first season with the Mets-for a rate of 3.4 per nine. Lastly, he gave up 1.6 homers per nine; as high as that is, it could have been worse. Pedro gave up four homers in 45 innings at Shea Stadium, a park notorious for its pro-pitcher leanings due to swirling winds, for a rate of 0.8 homers per nine. On the road, Pedro gave up 14 bombs in 64 innings, or 2.0 per nine. Over 200 innings, we're talking about nearly 44 homers allowed. I've read some people claim that because Pedro's HR/FB was high, we shouldn't be too concerned, as it was possibly a blip. Let's toss his 28 innings from 2007 out for a moment due to the size of the sample and check out his HR/FB from his past four more full years:
Year HR/FB% 2004 10.2% 2005 7.5% 2006 12.3% 2008 15.0%
It makes sense that there would be a dip between 2004 and 2005, as Pedro went from Fenway and the American League to Shea Stadium and the weaker National League. He struggled with homers a little more in 2006-giving up 1.6 homers per nine on the road (13 in 73
Pedro was also a much different pitcher as far as pitch selection goes in 2008 then in other years of his career. From 2004-2006, Pedro relied on a fastball notable for its ever-decreasing speed, but he still had that filthy slider/curveball/changeup triumvirate that had made him the greatest pitcher in the land during the late Nineties and early Aughties. When he returned in 2008 after his shortened 2007, the slider was almost nowhere to be found-according to Fangraphs, he threw it just 1.6 percent of the time after using it over 17 percent of the time just two years before. There may be a classification issue here, however, as Pedro claims to have thrown a cutter while with the Mets; the speed and movement of the cutter and the slider is similar. Whether these were intentional cutters or not isn't as important as the fact that they catch too much of the plate and are a little too close in speed to his fastball to be very effective.
There are two things Pedro needs to do to rebound from 2008. He needs to improve his walk rate, and he needs to cut down on the number of homers he allows. If he just succeeded at the latter, the former would be less important, as he wouldn't be allowing so many runs on the long ball. The problem is that the second point is going to be harder to fix. Martinez is in Philadelphia, where 2.9 homers per game are hit. That's higher than every park in the majors this year with the sole exception for Yankee Stadium 2 (on the other hand, Citi Field has just 1.5 homers per game; I bet the Mets could have used a pitcher like Pedro this year). Shea Stadium and injuries were the things that kept Pedro from giving up bombs at a 40 homers in 200 IP clip last year. Now he doesn't have Shea, and though he won't throw enough frames to give up a full 40, he can still hit that rate as a result of calling Citizen's Bank Park his new home. He threw just 18
Luckily we can run Pedro's numbers through PECOTA and see what the system expects from him at Citizen's Bank Park. Pedro's weighted mean ERA with the Phillies is projected to be 4.67, with 17 homers allowed in 115
Between those two medium-range poles, we're essentially looking at the difference between Pedro being a useful pitcher for the Phillies and worth a win or more over replacement level from the time he hits the mound through season's end on the one hand, and Pedro struggling to the point where he might be hurting Philadelphia's chances. The Beta-which measures the volatility of the projection-is at 1.17, meaning that PECOTA's effectively unsure of just where Pedro will end up. Based on the massive range of outcomes, it's easy to see why that's the case. Because his poor homer rates look realistic and he's moving into an offense-oriented park, I think his 40th percentile projectioin-about halfway in between the 25th and 50th-fits the bill as far as what I expect: a 5.47 ERA and 1.5 HR/9. Whether or not that ends up working for Philadelphia's beleaguered rotation is of little consequence to you as a fantasy owner, because those numbers are not pretty.
Pedro still should have his curveball and changeup in working order, and his fastball still has a lot of movement to it, even if the speed isn't where it used to be. He's also a smart pitcher, so it isn't like he's going up to the mound unarmed. I just don't know if he can pull off the Mike Mussina and Greg Maddux late-career high-wire act given his home run problems, especially not when he's pitching at Citizen's. If he's not capable of that, his chances of helping you in fantasy are slim, because the damage to WHIP, ERA, and the lack of wins would be more trouble than they are worth.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Pedro end up being used like Chan Ho, getting 1 or 2 inning stretches out of the pen. The Phillies have two weeks or so of minor league starts to see if he makes sense as a starter, but if he doesn't have the gas to reliably get through 5 innings then he might add to the Phils problems as much as solve them. The team is already concerned that it is putting too much stress on the pen, so adding a mediocre 5 inning pitcher might not make that situation any better. If Pedro can 'let it go' more and keep his velocity up as a guy who goes 20-30 pitches (or less) an outing, then he might slot in there. And if not Pedro, the Phils still have a few other guys they can rotate into the 5th spot until someone sticks.

Or if Rodrigo Lopez can continue to be serviceable, Pedro could potentially be a bullpen pitcher who warms up alongside Jamie Moyer; if Moyer isn't facing the Marlins, or struggles early on, quick hook, go to Petey.
Jul 17, 2009 11:40 AM
Or they drop him. Not sure what I missed, but if you pro rate Adam Eaton's contract out, I am sure they will pay him more money than Pedro for the rest of the year. When you sign a guy for a million, I think it's pretty assumed that it's a gamble. It's only slightly more interesting because this was one of the best pitchers in baseball for an amount of time.

'13 CSE Sports Marketing Symposium: What's Trending In Activation, Fan Engagement
Published October 3, 2013
THE BIG GAME: Super Bowl XLVIII will be played at MetLife Stadium on Feb. 2, and panelists were asked about the challenges that brands face in trying to break through the clutter of a marketplace like N.Y., and if that might deter their companies from activating around the event. D'Sylva said, "We'll have significant activation around the Super Bowl both in the market as well as on television. We think it's a tremendous opportunity and there's going to be a lot of energy and excitement around an outdoor Super Bowl." CSE President of Marketing Adam Zimmerman echoed the uniqueness of the event and said, "In a lot of ways it's a throwback. We're playing outside in the Northeast and I think that's going to be fantastic with all that that's going to bring."
when discussing the rise of the second-screen user
--Zimmerman on the second-screen experience: "There's a realization that TV plus social is better. People are engaged, whether it's sporting events or how Twitter and other media exploded around 'Breaking Bad.' It is a part of how people are engaging with content. Everyone should be exploring what that second screen experience is, and that becomes an opportunity to be ownable for a brand, to own that second-screen."
--D'Sylva on consumer-created content: "Everything we do these days in marketing is really social at the core. ... We're constantly looking for ... how do we involve the consumer in the creation of whatever we're doing? ... The millennial consumer today wants to be a part of it. They want to help create it."
--Zimmerman: "(Social media) helps us get closer to the holy grail of sponsorship, which is, what if I knew what my target, what my fan really wanted to do? ... Well now social conversations, and us being able to listen and infiltrate those conversations, tells me exactly what that fan would like to do. … Knowing what we know, we can lift that insight and be so much more impactful with our activation and be real time because actual fans are telling us what they want to do as opposed to us supposing what they want to do."

text: Preparing for your appointment By Mayo Clinic Staff Print Your high blood pressure may be discovered during a routine physical. At that point, your primary care doctor may order more tests, or refer you to a doctor who specializes in treating whatever the suspected underlying cause of your high blood pressure may be. For example, if your doctor believes that a kidney problem is causing your high blood pressure, you'll likely be referred to a doctor who specializes in treating kidney disorders (nephrologist). Because appointments can be brief, and there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to arrive well-prepared. Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and what to expect from your doctor. What you can do Be aware of any pre-appointment restrictions. At the time you make the appointment, be sure to ask if there's anything you need to do in advance, such as restrict your diet for a certain number of hours before your appointment. Write down any symptoms you're experiencing, including any that may seem unrelated to the reason for which you scheduled the appointment. Write down key personal information, including any major stresses or recent life changes. Make a list of all medications, vitamins or supplements that you're taking, as well as information on the dose you take for each. Write down questions to ask your doctor. Your time with your doctor may be limited, so preparing a list of questions can help you make the most of your time together. For secondary hypertension, some basic questions to ask your doctor include: What do you think is causing my high blood pressure? What kinds of tests do I need? Do these tests require any special preparation? Is my high blood pressure temporary or long lasting? What treatments are available for the cause of my high blood pressure and which do you recommend? What types of side effects can I expect from treatment? I have other health conditions. How can I best manage these conditions together? Are there any dietary or activity restrictions that I need to follow? What types of lifestyle changes can I make on my own that might help lower my blood pressure? Is there a generic alternative to the medicine you're prescribing for me? How often do I need to come back to have my blood pressure checked? Do I need to check my blood pressure at home? If so, how often? Which type of blood pressure machine is best? Can you help me learn how to use it correctly? Are there any brochures or other printed material that I can take home with me? What websites do you recommend visiting? In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment. What to expect from your doctorYour doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask: Has anyone in your family ever been diagnosed with high blood pressure? If yes, do you know if there was an underlying reason for the high blood pressure? For example, does your relative have diabetes or kidney problems? Have you experienced any unusual symptoms? How much salt is in your diet? Has your body weight changed recently? If you were ever pregnant, was your blood pressure elevated during pregnancy?
