Happy to oblige.
I totally agree with the previous comments. But that was the aim of this episode. That's why Richard - who has shockingly bad taste - was saved instead of Tu. Because they were setting up for drama and they got exactly what they wanted.
This challenge was extremely difficult because:
- most of those designers didn't do menswear
- most of those designers never designed tearaway clothes
- none of those designers ever designed for bodies this unusual
So in giving them just one day, it was bloody obvious that they would fail. There's just no way it could have worked. But that was the aim. Create drama. I feel sorry for the designers.
On the other hand, I feel a little horrified that they don't know anything about menswear.
At least they have made the right decision in sending Amanda home. Her pants were clearly the worst of what was shown and she's been turning out poor quality work throughout the series.
Fortunately next week there's going to be a proper challenge (although who knows maybe they will get one day for that as well ).

I just don't get these decisions.
After last week, I gave up on this season. If the judges can't even pick a clear winner in the final 7 for a challenge, then it's done. This team concept killed the show for me. I will miss the divine Tim Gunn. That's about it though.
So who was aufed?
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
Tonight's episode was OK, but I don't understand why Richard is still there. There are some things I like about the team challenge--when they listen, having other designers critique your work because they're invested has been a good thing. I like seeing the designers interact with each other. Patricia's outfit with Stanley was a TOTAL win. Had Stanley's dress not been so boring, I think she would have been up there with Michelle. It looks like the concept was done on the fly and they didn't have a plan in place; it looks like they're reacting episode to episode and just pulling stuff out of the air.
I will say though in defense of PR, I've been watching Fashion Star on demand. It's everything you think you want. The designers just design (seamstresses and fabrics are provided), the emphasis is definitely on the runway and not the personalities, and the mentors and buyers are professional--critical without being mean; complimentary without being over the top. And btw, when it comes to fashion, Jessica Simpson knows her stuff. She might be dumb in other aspects--or it's an act--and her speaking voice is awful, but her advice to her designers is bang-on. The fasnion is current, and you can buy the looks instantly. The designers are not really judged against each other, so beyond a broad concept (this week was "sexy") designers can do young, older, professional, men, sporty, whatever. If the buyers think it will sell, they buy it. For the most part, I agree with their decisions or I at least see their points when I do disagree.
And yet, for all that, I could freaking care less. I can't keep the designers apart, I'm not invested in any of them. I don't know their personalities, their points of view, if the clothes came out bad because they had issues or because they're bad designers. I only vaguely care about Jessica Simpson because she's been pregnant for five years and it's a modern-day miracle.
I watched them back-to-back tonight and the difference was eye-opening. It's sort of like 6.0 v. COP. Fashion Star is definitely COP friendly, but it doesn't have the emotional impact of an even not-so-good 6.0 PR.
"The practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of practicing sport, without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play." Olympic Charter
Richard, as Michelle said, keeps doing the same thing over and over.
I'm long "over" him.
I wonder what format they will use for the next series.
"Teams" has not worked, IMO.
Richard should have been aufed. But I guess the show wants to keep the drama he brings. Daniel's outfit was SO bad, as was the way he styled the model.
I was shocked when Patricia and Stanley weren't the team winners.
I now like Patricia. I think her outfits and creativity are interesting. I only see her or Stanley as the winner.
Well guess what, of course they did end up giving them one day.
For a challenge where the created product is supposed to be sold in an upmarket department store nationwide. Great.
I cannot believe they have kept Richard. Again. I am so so angry right now.
Well I can believe it. The producers needed the drama.
Richard has created the same dress he did before. And it didn't make sense for this challenge at all.
Daniel and Richard really have issues. Daniel is not very well connected to reality and should probably be locked in psychiatric ward and Richard doesn't have a shred of of self-awareness.They also have shockingly bad taste and they should have left the competition a long time ago.
Stanley's Lv5 control freak was really ugly also. I am very surprised that Patricia didn't lose her temper and murder him. I definitely would have.
I'm even more surprised that Michelle has produced something as incredible as that dress. Really simple, really commercial but also beautiful and sophisticated. It was perfect for this challenge.
Leyana - definitely what Heidi said. A hot dress with a horrible print.
I think the top 3 should be: Patricia, Stanley and Michelle I guess (Leyana is good but doesn't excite, Daniel and Richard are TERRIBLE).
I really hope Patricia wins.
I didn't like Leyana's dress less because of the print than the length. It works okay on a very tall model, it would drown a woman of average height even allowing for it being made to size. Hack it off at the knees/just above and the print would be fine because there'd be LESS of it and it wouldn't seem so living-room-drapey. Nothing about it was bad but as a maxi it was overwhelming.
The winner escapes me, but I don't like stick-figure clothes (it's a rectangle. If you're any shape other than toothpick, it won't flatter, the straight horizontals mean if you're not tall, it'll make you downright squat.) But the color was a nice change from "relentless black" or "spring means pink!" (And I LIKE pink.)
I don't even REMEMBER Patricia's dress and I still want her to win overall. Not least for not waiting until Stanley dozed off and smothering him to death with damp muslin. (Seriously, I wanted to beat him.) The woman is clearly a saint.
It is not bad designers or the team concept. It is LACK. OF. TIME. No one can conceptualize, shop, pattern-make, cut, sew, fit, and show in 24 hours on borderline-no sleep. I don't think the answer is doing a Fashion Star because yeah, that show is just...blah...but going back to one-day challenges being the exception rather than the rule.
I'm slowly getting on the Patricia bandwagon as well, although she is a little too crunchy-granola for my taste. The next challenge is the fabric design challenge; she better knock that out of the park. (Between that and me getting on the bandwagon, she'll probably be going home next.)
Layana and Michelle are egotistical and b*tchy, but they know how to design.
Stanley's dress was a snooze this week, but I'm rooting for him to be in the top three.
Richard and Daniel, time to go home.
I don't care for the team concept; but, the one-day challenges are even worse!It is not bad designers or the team concept. It is LACK. OF. TIME. No one can conceptualize, shop, pattern-make, cut, sew, fit, and show in 24 hours on borderline-no sleep. I don't think the answer is doing a Fashion Star because yeah, that show is just...blah...but going back to one-day challenges being the exception rather than the rule.
I wasn't. The L&T honcho obviously wanted Michelle's dress and would have picked Michelle and Daniel as the winning team even if Daniel had sent his model down in sackcloth.
It would be nice if the judges were consistent. Sometimes they send home the boring well-made dress (Richard) and other times they send home the more interesting but less well-constructed dress (Samantha). This time Samantha drew the short straw.
^^ ITA, Rogue. Also, what reckless and others have said!
The Thunder From Down Under Challenge was the worst PR results show ever, no thanks to Heidi and the producers. The designers needed at least 2 to 3 days for that challenge, if the emphasis was actually going to be on judging quality efforts, as it used to be when this show was first developed. The thunder challenge was disastrous because of Host/ Producers' choices. Also a disservice was done to the gorgeous Aussie guys group and to the designers. Sure the designers seemingly should have done a better job even in the time they were allotted, but there were too many strikes against them. One of the best past PR shows was the one where the designers created outfits for women boxers, so the thunder down under challenge might have worked had the designers been given sufficient time to think creatively, figure out menswear construction, and execute their ideas.
As far as this past week's Lord & Taylor episode, I think it further illustrates the weaknesses of the teams concept. Too often good efforts are only safe. Patricia and Michelle had the best designs, so it's too bad they weren't teamed. If Daniel and Stanley had been teamed together, they would probably have been the losing team and perhaps Daniel would have been sent packing. I thought Stanley's tone and his effort were very bad. His dress was so blah, boring. And he was such a total pill toward Patricia -- so nasty and aggressive, which was uncalled for. Perhaps, after Tim's input Stanley began to settle down and he may have been somewhat helpful to Patricia in the end, but for himself Stanley was totally against taking Tim's advice and he was wrong about that too. It was one of Stanley's worst designs. The team challenge has taken a toll on all the designers.
Richard was awful this week in his grudge against Layana. Richard should have just been thankful that Amanda had been sent home for the thunder challenge instead of him. Richard could have taken the high road and made amends with Layana. Of course Layana and Amanda were OTT against Richard during the thunder challenge, but Richard should have tried to put that aside. Apparently though, that kind of animosity and backbiting is what the producers want to see. For his bitterness and his lack of taste, Richard should have been sent packing for the L&T challenge.
Clearly the judges were ready for Samantha to be auf'ed. She was even an afterthought in being paired with Layana and Richard. It also kinda seemed like a set-up that Tim approved Samantha's design choice and encouraged her re "bringing a new kind of customer to Lord & Taylor." The heart cutout was not a good idea. As soon as Samantha said, "Oh, I never got such a good critique from Tim. Now, I'm really going to play up the junior," I suspected she was going down the wrong road completely. Plus she and her teammates were totally indifferent toward each other which did not help. Silly that from week-to-week none of them has learned the importance of working together without all the bi*ching and blaming.
Daniel had a total melt-down in the workroom, and Michelle got overly defensive re Daniel's craziness. Michelle was lucky she followed Tim's advice and ditched the rain vest. If she was going to go with that idea, why did she choose black anyway? Her dress was a winner, but it did not look great to me in the Lord & Taylor window. It looked like they changed the trim color and it looked wrinkled. Also, altho' it was never brought up, it seemed like Daniel was trying to make a rose effect with the way some of the fabric of his dress was puckered, either that or it was simply a bad sewing job.
Too bad for Samantha, but once again, the producers had had enough of her -- she apparently wasn't pulling it for them in the exciting, controversial department, despite her nose ring (ugh). I was not that fond of Samantha's aesthetic, but I think she's more creative than Richard, who just generally has poor taste. Richard's choice of styling and accessories is horrible, and his loud, cutesy act has totally worn thin. The L&T challenge was definitely a case where the poorest outfit was auf'ed, but again Amanda was saved a few times when she had the worst executed outfit, so in the end the judges' decisions have nothing to do with taste, or with who deserves to go home.
BTW, clearly Heidi's taste is very much in question. Heidi recently wore a tasteless, crevice-plunging outfit to an event that showed off most of her breasts, leaving nothing to the imagination. It seems as if Heidi has lost her mind along with her marriage.
I really enjoy Tim Gunn but I wonder whether he's often been biting his tongue and his lips during this awful season. But Tim is nothing if not loyal to the show, I suppose. As far as guest judges, I love Rachel Roy. She always tries to find something nice and constructive to say to the designers, even for poor efforts. Rachel definitely seemed to be defending Samantha over Richard, and so was Nina surprisingly. But Heidi and the producers won out.
Ultimately the teams concept doesn't work well for an entire series because the individual designers aren't being rewarded for what they do well. Plus, the show is a joke re not giving the designers enough time to complete these crazy challenges.
IMO, Richard and Daniel need to go next. Possibly the top three might be Michelle, Patricia, and Stanley, but Layana could get lucky at the expense of one of those three. I think Michelle is talented in a funky way, but I'm not in love with her tattoos or her personality. I'd like to see what Patricia and Stanley can do for a full collection. I agree with others that it's hard to determine the skill level of these designers because they aren't being given a decent opportunity to show what they can do. Perhaps that's why Stanley was so angry and aggressive toward Patricia...
Even at the beginning of the L&T show, Stanley seemed pissed off with his comment about wanting to finally get a real clothing design challenge. But even though he did, he came up with nothing special. He was apparently too worried about what Patricia was doing.

Not done yet, but...while on pure construction, I can see Richard going home. But I'm kind of hoping karma comes down on crybaby Layana, who was SO CONVINCED she was the team genius (and I didn't see anything in the workroom that really showed HER telling Daniel what to do that entitles her to "That's HALF my dress, and the avant-garde is all me but the other one is half mine and you betrayed me!")
Layana is ridiculous. She helped Richard with the concept but that jacket is all him. That's maybe the best jacket I've seen on this show. That black jacket was INCREDIBLE!!!!!
The blazer/jacket was all Richard. Layana does not have the skill set to construct a blazer like that. Richard's construction skills are the best of all the designers.
Michelle and Patricia are the best designers.
I'm cheering for Patricia or Stanley to win. I would love to see a collection from Michelle, Patricia and Stanley. Patricia is a designer's designer. She's like a combo of Thea Porter and Bob Gibb from the 70s.

So I know a lot of the trading from the Grab Bag has died down, but there are still a few people trying to trade - and I thought instead of adding to long pre-existing threads, or ten different size threads, it may be a good idea to have one thread for the late traders.
Some things I would ask:
1. Including your email address would be great. I hate when someone asks for a trade and then never checks in again to say whether or not your proposed trade is OK. It also can help to declutter this page if correspondence is via email and not here.
2. Try not to quote the person who you're trying to trade with - again, it clutters the page. Maybe try addressing them as: @wrongheaven, for example?
3. Don't forget to include the size you have/want!
4. It would be great if you could update the post when you can no longer offer a shirt/it has been traded!
Of course, these are just suggestions, not rules!
Hopefully this thread works out!

I'm doing my best to avoid looking. I got my hatin' and debatin' jollies out when I was younger and battling with people on the internet doesn't appeal much to me anymore. Teams in the spotlight will always garner more vitriol and criticism than anyone else, of course, and I just accept it and move on. As long as the judges aren't hating, I can't bring myself to care about other people's dislike. I don't think D/W could do anything now and not face some sort of resistance from someone.
But suffice it to say that the audience did love the FD. I swear it. There was gushing all around me, and from people who were and were not obvious skating fans and would not necessarily know or care about D/W's reputation and records. I'd say that everyone really loved the dance portion as a whole, even the lower ranking teams.

Oakley Spreads Love at Loveland
Oakley brought the storm to Summit County this week, with the biggest dump of the season coinciding with the final stop of the Oakley Revolution Tour, a seven-stop tour spanning five states and two weeks.
The six-member Rolling O Lab team arrived at Loveland Pass Thursday morning to set up for the first of three days of Oakley events in the area. Close to a foot of snow had accumulated overnight and athletes from Oakley's global ski and snowboard team began trickling in from all over the world. They came for a photo shoot and stayed for the Revolution Tour mayhem.
A huge gathering of retailers had already formed in front of the O Lab before the lifts opened at 9am. More than 400 invitees showed up for a day of education and entertainment, which included a lift ticket to Loveland, a tour of the O Lab, a free pair of custom goggles, a BBQ lunch, an athlete signing and après beverages at the Ratskeller.
The revelations people experienced coming out of the O Lab were obvious. And immediately after the breakthrough educational session, participants were directed to the goggle bar where they were thrilled to create custom eyewear. The unique, colorful goggles everyone was rocking lit up the flat light encompassing Loveland like glowsticks in the night. The poster signing drew everyone from lifties to groms to shop owners for an easy opportunity to get a poster or even your own snowboard signed by a pro rider.
The next day was more of the same, plus another eight inches of powder. Eero Ettala, Sammy Carlson, Seth Morrison, Tanner Hall, Gretchen Bleiler, Kristi Leskinen, Danny Kass, Pep Fujas, Marie-France Roy and other Oakley teammates descended on Loveland, creating the most star-studded day for a Colorado resort that usually stays under the radar.
Colorado ski and snow media, RSN television and the Discovery Channel were parked in front of the 80-foot Oakley set-up all day long, interviewing athletes in between laps. Retailers and media had the chance to mingle with their favorite Oakley riders in an intimate, authentic setting.
The laps only got better as the day wore on—it went from dumping to puking in the matter of an hour. The energy at Loveland was unreal—everyone was shredding powder in new custom goggles with world-class athletes making up the lift line.
As everyone made their way into the Ratskeller for free beer and the base area calmed down, the Swedes took the opportunity to poach the closed lift line stash everyone had been eying all day. They pulled the "I don't-a speak English" move on Loveland Ski Patrol and managed to escape unscathed.
After packing up the Rolling O and redeeming some tickets at the Ratskeller, it was off to Breckenridge in a full-blown blizzard.

Thinking about getting one does anyone have them and what do you think?
My mom is a big coffee drinker and she loves hers. I also a enjoy a cup when I visit.
My experience with hers is that the preparation is easy, quick, and clean.

A real time single cup can be an advantage, of course, and the quality is good.
One pays a premium for the convenience, though. The gizmo is expensive, and the per-cup cost of the prepacked cups is high.
A very good and inexpensive way to make single cups (mugs!) of coffee is to get a funnel, a package of (conical, not flat bottomed) coffee filters and a package of good coffee. Heat water to very hot (near boiling) in a microwave and do a "pour over". Fast, easy, cheap, and yields an excellent cup o' joe.
all the best,
I've had 2 Kuerig's ,one crapped out about a year ago, but the company sent me a new improved one free of charge. Makes a decent one serving cup of coffee, but mhardy6647 has it right, hard to beat pouring HOT filtered or distilled water over freshly ground whole beans in a coffee filter dripping into your cup. Now that beats the hell___ out of any cup of coffee I got from a Keurig machine.
I've had one for about three years. Very convenient and makes a good cup of coffee. Well worth it for the convenience. We buy bulk packs of the coffee at Sam's club which significantly lowers the per cup cost.

I gotta be honest - we grind about a week's worth of beans at a time and store 'em in an old coffee can :-)
Not optimal but I am deeply and profoundly lazy!
Please note first and foremost is that there's nothing to go wrong with the "hardware", no up-front "capital" cost (unless you need a grinder) and the per cup cost is way less than the Keurig gizmo. :-)
all the best,
The cost could be going down slightly since Green Mountains patent just expired. That should lend itself to a little more competition, though the price will probably not drop significantly.

My woman has one and basically its a proprietary trap. You pay for it dearly too. As soon as they run the course on the V cup they will come up with a new format to force people to buy new junk. They will do it over and over when people find ways to get around their high prices. I am not a coffee person I admit that but I do know business and I can spot this tactic from a mile away. There is no more profitable business than if you can sell something at a high price which the machine is, and then sell them constant consumables in fancy packages. Stay away that is my suggestion.
This works well also: http://aerobie.com/products/aeropress.htm a bit more labor intensive, but tastes good.
I love ours. We only used distilled water in it to avoid early failure from lime scale buildup. We buy and grind various "gourmet" coffees in a burr machine and use a refillable/permanent K-cup. Much better and cheaper coffee than buying the cups. I don't miss burnt,stale coffee one bit either !
i love mine! i like having all the different flavors and you can get a filter basket thing so you can use any ground coffee. we buy our k-cups bulk online and the are cheaper that way.

My wife has one and loves it. We bought a couple of those stainless steel cups that are fillable and she can use her own coffee. It's not quite as convenient as buying the cups at the store, but is still easier than a traditional setup and is much cheaper than the K cups

I bought one for my wife and the newly remodeled office and she's hooked. It's convenient and easy to use....I make tea from it and couldn't be happier. The Kcups are almost always on sale and not expensive in bulk.
If you love coffee, it is the way to go.

i saw a machine at sams that uses k-cups in the $30-$40 range you just have to put the water in each time for a cup.

We got the Cuisinart Keurig coffee maker and love it. You can adjust the water temperature, has more drink sizes than most, has a larger tank than most and has a rinse feature. One of the big complaints with the Keurig is clogging. The rinse takes care of that issue. The other complaint is the taste quality of the coffee. This can be caused by the K-cups you choose but also the brew temperature. I think many of the cheaper models do not get hot enough to properly brew and extract the coffee flavor in such a short time. I set the Cuisinart on the highest temperature and it does great. This model is built very well with a mostly metal frame mechanism. It is a little more expensive. Bed Bath and Beyond sells them and you can use their coupons that they so frequently send.
I tend to like strong coffee. The K-cups that you choose make all the difference. I typically get the Starbucks Sumatra or Anniversary blend. The output rivals what you get in the Starbucks store.
Another option is Starbucks Verismo? System. I had some samples if its output in the store and it is very good. You can get more creative with your coffee drinks and make Caffe Latte or espresso too. The downside is that you have to use the Verismo pods which you can only get at Starbucks. http://www.starbucksstore.com/verism...efault,pg.html

Ah, well you want to talk about analogue coffee making. I used my Shark steamer that I clean records with to make foamed milk for cappuccino. No joke, before I got what I have now I used the Shark in combination with the Aeropress. My wife thought I'd finally gone round the bend when she saw me holding the Shark's nozzle in a glass of milk trying to foam it up.
thanks guys its for the wife . I like mine a little strong so ill keep the bunn and she can use this one when i get it.
I do like all the different flavors of k cups.maybe ill have to try it.
I got one and love it. It makes a wonderful cup of coffee. You get to select from a very wide range of different brews. My advise is to get the Sampler pack. This way you can tryout many different kinds and not waste money on a box and hate it.
We also have a Tassimo which I like as much and better. It makes a more organic tasting cup as it changes the time and brew temp on the fly depening on which disc you put into it. It has a bar reader. You also can do Cappuccino as they come with 2 discs , one is the Expresso and the other is the milk. It comes out excellent. I have not seen that on the Keurig. But there is more to select from with Keurig. Star Bucks and Duncan Donuts both make K cups along with a very wide range of companies.
I say get one , I believe anyone would enjoy a cup from it. Hardcore Coffee drinkers who only like preparing their own beans and such may not like it. But those of us who drink one maybe 2 cups in the morning max it's a blessing. You don't have to waste a pot as I have many times as I use to make a pot and I would end up throwing a lot of it away.
My personal quest is to save to world of bad audio, one thread at a time.
Started using one of these when camping about 35 years ago. I think there are still 3 or 4 of them flaoting around in my camping boxes.

I got the Nespresso U last month...pretty happy with it. Most of the choices are pretty good, but its difficult to remember which color container was your favorite. If you don't mind the limitations of their weird coffee club its good and convenient....
I have one for years and I've given away many for christmas and gifts in the past.
Lately I've been drinking a lot of expresso and I really don't want to make a pot of expresso for one cup for myself so I'm thinking of getting an expresso machine as well.
My biggest client has one of these: http://www.bettymills.com/shop/produ...FQeynQodk1sAJQ
Makes really Great Expresso but it is way too expensive for me.
I was thinking of getting one of these: http://www.nespresso-us.com/item_detail.cfm
Another client of mine has one of these nespresso and it makes very good expresso.

- Health Notes
Do You Need More of this Vitamin for Vitality?Do You Need More of this Vitamin for Vitality?In addition to bone health, vitamin D may be vital to muscle function and mobilityDecades of research have focused on the importance of vitamin D for maintaining healthy bones, especially as we age. The relationship between vitamin D and bone health was cited as the most important consideration when the Institute of Medicine expert panel updated the vitamin D recommendations in 2010 as well. But vitamin D may be vital for healthy aging for another reason: Without enough of it, muscle function and mobility can be impaired, which is a leading cause of falls in seniors, and can lead to broken bones and other injuries.
More D for more muscle
To examine the connection between vitamin D, muscle strength, and mobility, researchers studied 302 women between ages 70 and 90 with low blood vitamin D levels. The women were divided into two groups, receiving either 1,000 IU of vitamin D per day or a placebo. Lower body muscle strength was measured at the beginning and end of the study. Mobility was assessed with the timed up-and-go test, which measures how long it takes a person to get up from a chair, walk a short distance, and return to the chair.
After a year of supplementing with vitamin D, compared with the placebo group, women with the weakest leg muscle strength and poorest mobility at the beginning of the study had significantly greater forward and backward (extensor) strength, side-to-side (abductor) strength, and faster timed up-and-go tests. Only the group who took supplements showed significant increases in blood vitamin D levels.
Getting the right dose of D
Keep the following tips in mind about vitamin D and how to help yourself age well:
- Ask your doctor or dietitian for a recommendation on what amount is right for you.
- Stay active as you age. It's easy to do less over time, and the best way to remain active is to never stop being active in the first place.
- If you have an injury or simply struggle to complete activities of everyday life, ask your doctor for a referral to a physical therapist or exercise physiologist. A targeted program to strengthen the body can go a long way toward helping us stay independent and healthy as we age.

Comments about Irwin Naturals Steel-Libido™:
I would usually take 4 capsules one hour, to sometimes several hours out before engaging in sexually activity and it did wonders for my erections, and sex drive. I'd be ready to go again 10 minutes after getting some. ROCK hard erections to the point where it almost scared me. The girth I gained in my manhood was amazing from this product!!! You'll love it, and she'll love it even more!!! They should put 76 capsules instead of 75 per bottle, since you have to take 4. That's the only negative I had with it. When you reach the end of the bottle there is 3 left, when the dosage is 4. Otherwise this is some potent stuff!!!

This product worked great for me. I had just started a new relationship with a younger woman who wanted sex twice a day. I was having a tough time staying erect, since I had been married for 28 years and wasn't used to it so often. I took the 4 pills for the first time and it worked like a charm, without the de-sensitizing effect that Lavitra or other drugs give you. If anything, it really gives you more feeling and sensitivity! Awesome stuff!

Cardiomyopathy is a weakening of the heart muscle or another problem with the heart muscle. It often occurs when the heart cannot pump as well as it should, or with other heart function problems.
Most patients with cardiomyopathy have heart failure
Different types of cardiomyopathy exist, and they have many different causes:
When possible, the cause of cardiomyopathy is treated. Medicines and lifestyle changes are often needed to treat the symptoms of heart failure, angina, and abnormal heart rhythms.
Different procedures or surgeries may also be used:
Recently, implantable artificial heart pumps have been developed. However, very few patients are able to have this advanced treatment.

'Raiders of the Lost Ark' Headed for IMAX Re-Release: 5 Reasons This Is Great News
By Kelsea Stahler on August 15, 2012
As someone who has in her possession an actual Indiana Jones costume and has worn it multiple times, let me just say: this is really, really great news. Director Steven Spielberg and executive producer George Lucas have finally decided to take their classic (amazing, life philosophy-inspiring) film Indiana Jones and The Raiders of the Lost Ark back to theaters the right way. No, they're not releasing it in 3-D, they're taking it to IMAX for a Sept. 7 release date. Yeah. As in September 2012. As in next month. It will only run for one week, but there are a few very serious reasons this re-release is awesome news. 1. The Opening Scene Was Made to Be Seen... Read More
Steven Spielberg says 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' looks better than ever in IMAX
By Matt McDaniel on August 15, 2012
"Raiders of the Lost Ark" was one of the biggest Hollywood hits of all time, and next month it will finally be projected on screens gigantic enough to suit it. It was announced on Tuesday that the first Indiana Jones adventure will have a limited one-week run on giant-sized IMAX theaters across the country starting on September 7. The picture and sound have been digitally re-mastered to look and sound better than they ever have before. The IMAX conversion process was so thorough, it even won over the toughest audience you could... Read More
That's a Big Boulder, Indy: Steven Spielberg on the IMAX Rerelease of 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'
By Dave Itzkoff on August 14, 2012
It's the kind of revelation that would melt the face of any die-hard Indiana Jones fan (this time, with joy): "Raiders of the Lost Ark," the 1981 adventure film that introduced that globe-trotting archaeologist, will receive a one-week Imax release next month, Lucasfilm said on Tuesday. "For me, it's always been the bigger the screen, the better," Steven Spielberg, who directed "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and the three subsequent "Indiana Jones" sequels, said Tuesday in a telephone interview. "It's the only marked contrast we have to the generations that are seeing our movies on phones and hand-held platforms. It's a complete relief to be able to see a film... Read More

How IMAX Became the Hottest Brand in Movies
By Brent Lang on August 05, 2012
In a summer where Hollywood has fielded nearly as many high-priced flops as blockbuster behemoths, one sector of the movie business has remained remarkably consistent – IMAX. Audiences, particularly fanboys, have remained intensely loyal to its mammoth 70mm screens at a time when theatrical attendance domestically has declined. Overall, IMAX, which has struggled in the past with the seasonal ups and downs of the movie business has been a more consistent performer. In the most recent quarter IMAX posted revenue growth of 22.7 percent. That outpaces the industry average of 13.4 percent. Profits increased six-fold to $11.1 million. And even while the...

It was clean, the breakfast bar was the best. People were very nice. The guests there were nice too. The sundries that they put out were very excellent. And when we came back exhausted, it was good having such good cable TV.
We only had one problem, the toilet in our room kept plugging up. One plummer told us that we should put the toilet paper in the waste basket instead of flushing it down the toilet. Ugh! Plus someone spilled in the elevator my granddaughter had a fall.The location was very good. We walked to Times Square, we were close to the subway, and there were always taxis available, being a senior citizen that walks very slowly that was good. We could see the Empire State Bldg from our room. Shops were close.

Location is great and the subway station is just in the corner of the block. Comlimentary breakfast is just OK, however if you are a familiy, it is important to have breakfast in the hotel in New York. Breakfast is served in the nearby bar& grill and its atmosphere is great. One of the front office staff was very kind and helpful, so I would like to thank her for everthing that she has done.
The hotel is very old and needs complete renovation. The rooms are not large enough to accomodate a familiy of four. It seemed the most unclean hotel during our visit to USA. Housekeeping staff is interesting (I guess they need a short course to learn how to behave to customers). In conclusion, location is OK, but nothing else...

There was a dark red stain on the comforter of the bed and dark spots on the mattress cover which required changing. Staff was friendly and responsive but it least 45 minutes to have the bedding changed. It ate into the evening.I am conflicted in my overall rating.

We wasted precious time waiting for a train which never arrived.The hotel is what you would expect. We could hear traffic noise from the 7th floor. The room was a bit small and the view from the room was brick and concrete. But this is New York. The price and location are great. The marble sink was a nice touch.

No. 42 Seahawks Begin Spring With Troy
Courtesy: UNCW Athletic Communications
Release: 01/17/2013
WILMINGTON, North Carolina - With three NCAA Tournament appearances in the last four years, the UNCW men's tennis team knows a fourth berth is certainly within reach. That journey starts Sunday with the spring opener against Troy at the UNCW courts.
UNCW entertains the Trojans at Noon and then goes back-to-back, with Appalachian State visiting the courts Monday at 1 p.m. Troy opens its spring slate Friday with a match at Presbyterian in Clinton, S.C.
"We're very excited about our upcoming spring season," said sixth-year UNCW Head Coach Mait DuBois. "It's a very special situation when you return an entire team, especially one that enjoyed as much success as it did last year. I feel very good about the progress that we made over the fall and our two new additions that will be joining us this spring. I believe we have taken strides forward in every position and I look forward to getting our season under way. "
The Seahawks have emerged as one of the CAA's top teams, advancing to the NCAA's in 2009, 2011 and 2012. The impressive run includes CAA titles in 2009 and 2011.
The Seahawks return senior leaders Kosta Blank and Chris Cooprider to anchor a team that remains intact following a 17-7 season last spring. The season-opening match with Troy will be a good test early for DuBois and his team.
"Troy is a team we saw last year and is a very strong and well coached program," said DuBois. "They return most of their team from last year and have made three strong additions. I think they will be stronger than last year, and will be a good early test for us to see where we are."
UNCW is ranked 42nd overall and four players earned recognition recently in the first release of the spring by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA). It marks the first time the program has featured multiple players and doubles teams in the group's poll.
In singles, junior Rafael Aita of Lima, Peru, is ranked 37th and sophomore Sam Williams of Bristol, England, is rated 121st in the NCAA Division I ranks. Aita went 17-4 in singles, mostly at the No. 1 position, last spring and was named the ITA Regional Player To Watch. Williams reached the quarterfinals of the ITA Regionals and led the team in wins during the fall season.
UNCW also has two doubles teams in the rankings. Cooprider and Blank are rated 10th, while Aita and Williams are 53rd. The ranking by Cooprider and Blank, who went 18-5 last spring, is the highest ever for a UNCW doubles tandem.
Cooprider, from Denver, Colo., and Blank, from Winnipeg, Canada, reached the finals of the USTA/ITA Carolina Regional Championships in October, losing to No. 1-ranked Raphael Hemmeier and Henrique Cunha of Duke in Cary, N.C. The pair also won the prestigious U.Va. Ranked+1 event in September by upsetting fourth-ranked Mac Styslinger and Jarmere Jenkins of Virginia.
DuBois has augmented his returning group with two international players who could make an immediate impact - Christiaan Van der Burgh of Stellenbosch, South Africa, and Santtu Leskinen of Helsinki, Finland.
The 6-3, 175-pound Van der Burgh has been ranked as high as 10th in the South African men's rankings, a group that includes the country's top players and many who reside in the top 200 of the ATP.
Leskinen, a 6-1, 165-pounder, won three Finish U-18 championships and rose to 397th in the ITA World Rankings. He represented Finland in the U-18 European Championships and won four ITF doubles event.
