For those who take their sleep siriusly.
Two for Tuesday is back!!! Yahoo!!
Got these a while ago from a previous woot. Great for the price, but definitely a summer bag, too thin for any serious cold weather camping. Can't beat the price, and always fun to zip them up together to form sleeping bag voltron!
I'm no camping expert but, why would you want a mummy-style sleeping bag that's only good down to 50º? It's 50º out, do you really need to have your head covered when you sleep in what I would consider, "pretty darn nice weather"?
I'm afraid of the 'mummy-style' sleeping bags, I'm always afraid I'll mummify myself!
860 grams = 1.89 pounds total weight...maybe 1.5 pounds of filling?
Deals.woot has a similar deal but in a different color for those who don't like this style.
I would be all over this deal. But I sweat at 50 degrees and would die if I enclosed myself in a bag on a summer night.
Yeah, Two for Tuesday is back?

Oh? I don't see anything. Can you provide a link?
well, to use for more winter temperatures couldn't you just double up the two sleeping bags, then you have double the insulation... lol.
Why are these not on Sport.Woot? Because it's a two-fer?
Local camping place has these for $17 each. Their site says it makes a good bag liner for colder weather, and that two can zipped together for those nights when you want to get _more_ snugly. http://www.recreationoutlet.com/p-813-high-peak-sirius-sleeping-bag.aspx
get em fer the grandkids fer their al gone!

^This. Who the heck wants a warm weather mummy bag?
bnbsouthworth wrote:Why are these not on Sport.Woot? Because it's a two-fer?
Woot sells the best deal of the day in any category.
So could you nest these and make a sleeping bag for colder weather?
Wooted the heck out of that woot! Holy crap what a great holiday present for my boys who are growing and may pass up their 6'5" father. Affordable, useful, and if they don't use them... Well zip'em up baby!
Got 3 pairs in a previous woot. Good deal for $11 each. Great for scout troops and those kids that can't afford one ahead of time. It will do in a pinch but it isn't for much below 40 degrees. More for cooler weather backyard camping or one overnight day trips. And kids. The zip together feature is handy and fun.
kmtfk6 wrote:So could you nest these and make a sleeping bag for colder weather?
Sure. But with one being a right-hand zip and the other a left- hand zip you may not be able to get out of your bag quickly for those nightly 'recycling' runs.
I have a feeling that my wife will use one of these as a body bag when she kills me for too much wooting!
Perfect timing! My husband and I have been trying to find super cheap bags for weeks but haven't seen anything that would work for us. Since we camp exclusively on the Southern California coast, these bags will be perfect year-round. At this price I won't even be mad if our dogs destroy them on a camping trip. I just hope they arrive before Labor Day. Hint hint, Woot. Hint freaking hint.
50 degree bag? What's the point? Just have another beer and put on an extra sweatshirt.
1> They fit in the kayak hatch and work when wet. 2> They are cheap to loan to your new friend drunk friend. 3> Zip together for your new girlfriend you just met at that rave. 4> Get some spares for the RV. 5> Two of them fit in the front loader at the laundry mat after Burningman. 6> They are also useful to keep the bedbugs out at that budget hotel you just booked on that website.

A friend of mine said that his wife was so frigid he called her a '50 degree bag'. I wonder why he's divorced now?
Hi Woot Staff, I placed an order but my payment information is incorrect so I submitted a cancellation. Please cancel my order. Do not ship.

I'm not allowed access to customer information (or permanent markers, but that's another story). You can email firstname.lastname@example.com as well. They'll be chained back to their desks in the morning to take care of things.

ITS MY HOUSE !STOMP STOMP STOMP ... YA HAD TO BE THERE.. are these good for kids sleeping inside an rv in the desert. more spicificly are they of good quality ?
I am new to this style of sleeping bag. Does the zipper go all the way to the feet to open up?
rcpaws wrote:I am new to this style of sleeping bag. Does the zipper go all the way to the feet to open up?
It depends on whether you enter the bag head first or feet It's SUMMER!
I remember from a backpacking course in a college P.E. class where it was recommended to get sleeping bags designed with sewing seams that are horizontal to prevent any filling inside from sliding all the way down to one end or the other. Sometimes I've seen these referred to as horizontal baffles or baffling (or sections) with multiple sections or baffles running the length of the sleeping bag. If the sewing seams are vertical or running in the direction of the length of the sleeping bag, then obviously the filling inside the bag for insulation can slide down to either end instead of being equally distributed. For anyone who has bought or seen these before or if you see any photos where you can see the sewing seams, can you tell if these have multiple horizontal seams across the width of the sleeping bag spaced approx. 1-2 feet apart??? Thanks.
Since they're not refurbished I wooted for these. Nothing like being cuddled by a warm 'mummy' at night.
Looks like these lightweight sleeping bags would be good for weekend backpacking trips during warm temperatures or seasons.
This + emergency mylar blanket (10 for $7.95) = At least 40° sleeping bag?

'Dancing With the Stars' Recap: Sherri Heads Home
Sherri Shepherd and Val Chmerkovskiy eliminated in a shocker
This was an incredibly tough -- maybe downright shocking -- elimination. Sherri's grace and enthusiasm for dance made her a favorite early on and seeing her in tears as she was eliminated was heartbreaking. Sherri thanked the producers for letting her "live the dream," and gave a shout-out to her partner, Val. She also encouraged everyone to live their dreams. Sherri thanked everyone and said she had the most amazing time dancing.
Bing: More about 'Dancing With the Stars' | Photos: Meet the cast of Season 14
Here's a quick look at how the remaining stars did this week:
Last Night on TV: Watch recaps | Video: Watch clips and more
Melissa Gilbert
After a close shave – Melissa suffered a mild concussion after this week's performance round – Melissa is still in the game. Her paso doble actually left Maks with a shoulder injury as well! Nonetheless, it was a good dance. Melissa has great rhythm and this dance really highlighted her stamina. Melissa got off to a rough start in this competition, but she has really brought her A-game the last two weeks. Let's hope the trend continues.
Gavin DeGraw
Gavin's tango was moody and measured, but a bit problematic. He had trouble moving with Karina, though they did pull off an amazing turn-and-roll toward the end of the routine. The judges didn't love this dance, but they did acknowledge how far Gavin has come this season.
Maria Menounos
Maria's tango was a coup, considering that she was dancing on an injured foot. She and Derek moved beautifully together. Bruno was a fan of the staccato action of the routine, which he dubbed "brilliant." Unfortunately, it's not clear how much Maria's injury will affect her performances going forward.
Jaleel White
Jaleel's winning tango was a lot flashier than his other routines have been. He and Kym moved well together and the routine struck a good balance between actual dance and flips and tricks. Jaleel has been strong throughout the competition, but he might need to set aside his cool-as-ice persona if he really wants to win hearts and minds.
Gladys Knight
Gladys' tango was a bit too studied, though, as always, her footwork was very precise. Len said Gladys needs to make her steps a bit quicker and that her posture isn't what it should be. This wasn't Gladys' best performance but everyone has an off week.
Donald Driver
Donald's shirtless paso doble was intense to the nth degree! There were some incredible spins in the routine and Donald kept pace with Peta and made sure his footwork was sharp and precise. The judges loved this one, especially Carrie Ann, who called it one of the most memorable dances of the season.
Katherine Jenkins
Katherine's intense paso doble was a hit with the crowd but wasn't exactly the judges' cup of tea. Bruno commented on a lack of precision and Carrie Ann took issue with the lack of cohesion in Katherine's footwork. Katherine has been No. 1 almost every week, but will she vault back to the top of the judges' leaderboard in the next round?
William Levy
William's rock 'n' roll jive brought out his funny side, though the routine was a bit of a disaster. William got thrown off in the middle of the routine and never quite got his groove back. In judges' critique, Carrie Ann encouraged him to stay focused. Let's hope he listens!
Roshon Fegan
Roshon's Viennese waltz was a real departure from his usual supercharged hip-hoppy routines. Bruno praised his elegant lines and Carrie Ann compared the routine to "watching the climax of a Disney movie." Roshon took a risk this week, and it paid off. I can't wait to see what he does next week.
Who won the week: Donald and Roshon
Who needs to step it up: Gladys
"Dancing With the Stars" airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT and Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
Let's face it, in the end it is a popularity contest, and certainly not the best dancers. I do think this is the best cast ever. I think Katherine is probably the best, but I don't believe that she is not a dancer in addition to being an opera singer. I doubt Mark would have made her that good. I think it is sad to see anyone go from this group.
IMHO, I think Gladys was the weakest of them all this week and should of been the one to go home last night.
This season is fantastic. In all fairness to the entire dance group, I think the audiences vote count should be lessened, in order to take away from them voting for the most popular rather then the individuals dance performance. This is a dance contest and not a popularity contest. Too many good dancers were sent home because they had a much smaller fan base ... not fair at all !!
This Rock week thing is the Biggest waste of time and crap I have seen .. Honestly.
The music NEVER matches the dance ... none of the dances look right .. none of the dancers had real rhythm (even the pro's) and they all looked lost most of the time ... even the judges had no base to score it ...
It should never be repeated ... Dancing and music is suppose to match .. there is waltz, polka and latin music for a reason .... anyone who takes dancing seriously had to find monday a total joke
I had a difficult time understanding the criticism of William's dance considering Cheryl was dancing on top of her high heels after her shoe was partially knocked off during the fumbled move early in the dance. While Cheryl did her professional best to keep up with the pace, the shoe situation threw her timing off just a hair and William was trying his best to adjust to the loss of Cheryl's lead. Of course, unlike the judges, I have the benefit of a DVR and was able to see just when Cheryl's shoe situation began and how it effected their dance.

After an at times racially charged debate, the East Baton Rouge Parish School Board voted 9-1 Thursday to create a new attendance zone for Lee High School that is similar to but smaller than the zone the school had when it closed in May 2009.
The board also agreed with the recommendation of new Superintendent Bernard Taylor to keep Lee High School just for grades nine and 10 at first, allowing juniors and seniors to stay at McKinley, Tara and Woodlawn high schools. Those are the three schools that took in Lee High students in 2009 when the low-performing high school was closed to avoid a potential state takeover. McKinley and Woodlawn, in particular, have suffered overcrowding since.
Taylor defended the "start small" approach — the new school will have an estimated 263 ninth-and 10th-graders.
"It allows us to build a quality program," he said. "You can bring the kids in there and scaffold up."
Robert E. Lee High School is scheduled to reopen Aug. 8 at the start of the 2012-13 school year. Taylor said the first year will be a planning year. He said by 2013-14, he would like to open an additional program, perhaps a magnet program, that would attract new students to the school system.
The board members voting in favor of the new attendance zone are: Jerry Arbour, Connie Bernard, Craig Freeman, Randy Lamana, Vereta Lee, Kenyetta Nelson-Smith, Tarvald Smith, David Tatman and Evelyn Ware-Jackson.
Board President Barbara Freiberg, who represents most of the Lee High area, abstained.
Jill Dyason, who represents the area that includes Woodlawn High, was the lone vote against the new zone. She pushed hard to persuade the board to expand the new Lee attendance zone to include an area east of Siegen Lane that feeds into Woodlawn High.
"We either are going to embrace neighborhood schools or not," Dyason said.
Dyason also noted that the recent attempt to create a new southeast Baton Rouge school in the Woodlawn area called for a high school bounded on the south by I-10.
Board members Lee and Nelson-Smith, both black, questioned why Dyason, who is white, is pushing to have even more Woodlawn students attend Lee High School.
"What people are not saying about this, it is a racial issue," Nelson-Smith said. "It is, and it's not being addressed.
"We have to make decisions based not on what's good for one neighborhood, but what's good for one district," she added.
Lee addressed Dyason directly at one point.
"These schools belong to all of our children. We can go to this school as well as her children," Lee said referring to Dyason.
Dyason did not respond to Lee directly.
But after the meeting, Dyason said that Woodlawn High School is not unfriendly to black students. She said the high school has a five-member Student Council and the student body elected four black students to the council.
"You can't say this is racial," she said of her effort to expand the attendance zone.
Board member Evelyn Ware-Jackson objected to Dyason's proposal.
She noted that most of the students in the area that Dyason wants to transfer from Woodlawn High to the new Lee High actually live closer to Woodlawn.
"I know that if I was living right there I would much rather go that short distance to Woodlawn than to go all the way to Lee," Ware-Jackson said.
Dyason was also upset that Lee High won't include middle school grades to relieve overcrowding at Woodlawn Middle School.
Taylor presented a choice of five attendance zones. The board selected Option 4.
The five maps are included in a presentation at the website: http://sbcentral.ebrschools.org/eduWEB1/1000144/docs/06.21.12item30.pdf
The board did not rename the school, but referred that matter to a school naming committee that Taylor is planning to form per board policy.
At a June 14 community forum, about 150 came up with several ideas for the new school, including several possible new names for the high school, originally named after the famous Civil War general. Some alumni, black and white, have made clear they don't want the school name to change.
"I've been threatened mayhem if you try to change the name of Lee High School," board member Jerry Arbour said. "So I think you can disabuse yourself of the notion that we're going to rename Lee High."

Amuso: Give Summary Offenders A Fresh Start
"If we give them hard community service so they remember the six weekends they spent cutting weeds along the Wissahickon or cleaning out the kitchen at the local hospice or hospital they won't do that again, but just as importantly they will have an opportunity to move on. They won't have this record that's going to pop up instantly on anybody's iphone."
Amuso says the records are readily available on the internet, and he gets calls in his private law practice from parents who are concerned that a shoplifting guilty plea, for example, will prevent their son or daughter from getting into college or getting a job. He says his program will let them have a fresh start. He appeared Wednesday on the WNPV talk program Legally Speaking.

SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness
| |||
Rodeo CrueltyAnyone with a heart knows it's wrong to clothesline a baby animal, body slam it to the ground, tie its legs so it can't move, and drag it by the neck. If this were done to a puppy or kitten, the offender would understandably be charged with a crime, and likely be jailed. In rodeos, however, it's called calf roping, and supporters claim it's a sport. But the abuse of baby cows is just one of rodeo's cruelties. Click to see SHARK's video proof from years of rodeo investigations. Pigeon SlaughterPigeon shoots are competitions wherein thousands of live birds are shot to win prizes. A typical 3-day shoot contest can kill and injure up to 15,000 birds. Pigeon shoots are nothing more than a vile excuse for entertainment for the dull-witted or psychopathic. Illegal in other countries and in all but a couple of American states, most people realize the despicable nature of these bird-killing contests. Bullfight BloodbathBullfighting is one of the most indefensible types of animal abuse. SHARK's graphic footage shows the horror of what happens at these events. Dare to look at this. The pointless barbarism and cowardice is undeniable. Hunters Rape NatureCage-raised birds shot as they are ejected from cages -- deer populations purposely inflated to excess -- government slaughters in the name of "nuisance control." Hunters claim they "harvest" wildlife, but in fact they are raping nature for the thrill of the kill. Check out SHARK's undercover videos exposing these horrors. Horse KillersThe American tradition of loving and respecting horses existed long before there was a United States. Americans counted on horses to build this nation; to plow the fields and to carrying soldiers to battle. Horses are for many people part of their family. Unfortunately, not everyone in the United States gives the horse the respect it deserves. There are those who are willing to see horses killed for profit, and that is who this website seeks to expose. Horse slaughter proponents claim to care about horses, but the facts and the video footage tell a very different story. Support SHARK!Your donations are always greatly needed and appreciated.

THE vastness of Earth's oceans and the limited extent of our knowledge and occupation of them often invites comparisons with space. But they are much more attainable than the moon or Mars. Hence the enduring fascination with "seasteading", the idea of building permanent settlements at sea (see "Brave new sea worlds to redefine society").
Those who push the idea are often dismissed as libertarian fantasists. The seasteading movement has its fair share of those, but it is also home to pioneers longing to conquer a new frontier.
We already have The World, a private residential yacht with permanent wealthy occupants cruising the globe. That hardly fulfils the vision of wagons rolling west. But it may be the start of something bigger. Shifting climate was what drove our African ancestors to colonise the world (see "Climate change determined humanity's global conquest"). As climate and population pressures ramp up, perhaps the lure of the wide blue yonder will prove irresistible.

The Tanzania National Parks (Tanapa) has finally decided to revise upwards entry tariffs across the country's 15 national parks after considering stakeholders' concerns.
The agency has announced that alongside the review, it has renamed park entry fee as 'conservation fee'.
Areas to be affected by the new tariffs, which take effect July 1, 2013, include filming, which the agency has described as 'very low and out of date'.
Fees for walking safaris have also been changed chiefly owing to the popularity of that particular hobby in some parks and among tour operators.
Also affected are guiding, fly camping, sports fishing, boating, canoeing, night game drive, vehicle guiding, aircraft landing, public camping, special camping, bush lunch or dinner and student visits.
According to Tanapa, it is years since it reviewed park entry fees. The last time was in 2005, when tariffs for Serengeti and Kilimanjaro national parks were increased from USD30 to USD50 and USD60, respectively.
Attempts by the agency to do the same recently touched off stiff opposition from tourism operators, some claiming that they ought to have been informed well in advance so that they could rearrange their businesses and thus offset the hikes in costs that the revision was bound to trigger.
This time round, however, Tanapa has been cautious enough to see to it that there was ample time for the operators between the announcement of the fees and the time the new fees would come into implementation.
This time, there is no doubt whatsoever that the agency has acted properly and therefore fairly. One reason is that the tariff review was long overdue. Previous reviews were made in 2000 and 2005, while since then many things have changed a lot.
Inflation has skyrocketed, with the value of the shilling fluctuating many times over and taxes ever rising.
But also, as stated by the agency, the tariff revision will cater for things like the levels of the prices of most commodities and services that have been endlessly on the rise.
Improvement in tourism facilities and infrastructures, meant to cater better for the increased number of visitors and to diversify the sector and provide more enriching visitor experience, is yet another reason cited by the agency.
Despite these efforts, Tanapa needs to make a lot more effort, including undertaking internal restructuring and motivating staff through a range of incentive packages, if it is serious about raising more revenue.
We support this paradigm because we know for a fact that it will help to push forward tourism and therefore boost the economy.
However, this support is with reservations because of two things. One is the quality of the services on offer in our parks, which need to be re-examined. The other is the recent spate acts of sabotage apparently supported and perpetrated by some corrupt public officials and costing the nation massive sums of much-needed money.
There is every need to weed out all these elements and their criminal activities, short of which it would be impossible to see the rationale of raising tariffs.

What are the pros and cons here?
The only I can see is that the BluRay edition lets you trade it and the PSN version lets you have a cloud install of it available wherever you are.
I love my PSN cloud installs for PSP games so this feels like the right choice for me.
Are there other factors when considering a major retail release like this BluRay vs PSN?
They have done well in supporting PSN purchases. EVen old discontinued titles like Gran Toruismo concept and Calling All Cars are available to those who bought them in the download list. So far we have almost 4 years of solid user support for purchases. I can re-download them whenever needed etc...
This is a great question. I hadn't even thought about it until now. Personally, I bought it on Blu-Ray because I like having a physical copy. I also got a $20 promotional credit from Amazon. Purchasing from PSN doesn't seem like a bad decision. It will probably take a considerable amount of time to download and then install, however. I suggest the Blu-Ray, but I have no real support or reasoning for that though. I just feel like it's the better decision. I'm interested to see if anyone has actually utilized this option.....
I still haven't bought the game yet hahah can't decide!
I'm not fond of the digital concept yet. Probably never will be a fan either. 1) I like to have a physical copy especially since I trade in 4 out of 5 games and 2) I'm not fond of down load times.
Yes, I've downloaded some PS1 classics but that's the only way to get most of them cheaply. Otherwise, I prefer a hard copy.
Downloading a PS1 game is also like a fifth of the size of a game like ME2. I also prefer to have a physical copy. The game should also be significantly cheaper in the digital form. That would be something that would persude me to purchase a digital copy.
You seriously want to download a game that'll be 24 GB in size before the additional DLC? I DL'd Record of Agarest War for this system & it was 9GB (before additional DLC); I started the thing at 9pm & it didn't finish until 4am, including the install. After that experience I said, "Never again, not something even close to this size & not for this system, it's simply too slow." Imagine how long a 24GB game is gonna take you to download.
If size isn't an issue on your HDD, and you didn't mind not having a physical copy, then the Digital version should be fine.
I still like physical copies for PS3 games. PS1, PSP, PSN games I couldn't care less, so I usually just get the digital version.
McBonk wrote:
I can understand the filesize factor as a deterrant to digital distribution. But the time factor? meh... it's not like anyone will be sitting there with the controller in their hand waiting to "Press Start." Er.... will they?
That's why it's called, "Download in background."
I actually did that the first day I got ME2 while the Cerberus Pack was downloading. That took 15-20 minutes. It wasn't terrible torture or anything, but I wouldn't wait around for hours like that. That'd just be silly.
I ended up getting the PSN edition.
I actually wish I had PSN edition Warhawk, GT5 Prologue, Socom Confrontation, Infamous, Red Faction, Borderlands etc...With those titles, the PSN edition came out after I had bought the BluRay
The reason being is thats its a infinite supply cloud installer for any of your PS3's anywhere whenever you might need the game. Your house could burn down, get robbed etc... without needing any disks you can download and reinstall your titles on any PS3 you own/activate.
I also like having a ton of games to play on my 500GB HDD so having something top shelf like this a button press away really is nice. The quality jump over most PSN titles is obvious.
The game is only 12 GB on my HDD BTW. Way too small for a BluRay. Most X360 games sized for DVD's make great PSN titles on the PS3.
The mantra here - mass server storage / hosting and having an on demand installer in the cloud is really an appreciated format for me.
BTW - loving the game so far.

Learn About Fundred
Draw your unique Fundred Dollar Bill, mail it to a Fundred Collection Center and be part of the solution to eliminate the devastating effects of lead-contaminated soil that currently places children at risk for severe learning disabilities and behavioral problems. This nationwide drawing project will honor the value of your action. Make a Fundred! Make a Difference!
Everyone and anyone, students, teachers, artists, parents and celebrities, are all making their own Fundred Dollar Bills–original, hand-drawn interpretations of U.S. $100 bills. The goal is to collect over 3 million of these unique artworks. This cumulative total of 300,000,000 Fundred Dollars supports the equivalent cost (in U.S. Dollars) required to make safe every lead contaminated property in New Orleans, so that every child is protected.
Completed Fundred drawings are sent to official Collection Centers to be counted and securely held!
Then What?
These valuable drawings will be picked up by a special armored truck and presented to the U.S. Congress with a request for an even exchange of the creative capital–your Fundreds–for real funding to make safe lead-polluted soils in New Orleans. Once we create a lead-safe New Orleans, this innovative environmental model will be available to other lead-polluted cites.
When Will This Happen?
Fundred is an ongoing project; it is continuing through the 2012/2013 school year. We encourage your participation! There is no time like the present!
The Sous Terre Armored Truck tour began its first nationwide tour in November 2009 when the truck departed from New Orleans. After traveling 18,000 miles across the country for 117 pick-up events, the tour ended New York City on June 8, 2010.
See the pick-up schedule here for future events
Who Can Participate in Fundred?
Everyone! Children are the most affected by lead, and therefore, are at the center of this project. However, teachers, parents, administrators and community members are encouraged to contribute as well!
Download or order templates and draw your Fundred Dollar Bill today! Send your Fundred to a Collection Center to be counted!
Fundred For:
The Fundred Dollar Bill Project offers meaning for all participants:
- Teachers: Download lesson plans and other resources. See how other teachers have worked with the project in their classrooms.
- Service Learning: Engage as a demonstration and celebration of the power of youth voice.
- Parents: Lead poisoning affects children's health. Your child can be part of a solution and make a difference!
- Students: Lead affects your health and the health of children everywhere. Draw a Fundred and contribute to a solution! Help make your environment healthy.
- Groups: Your school, faith-based organization, business or social group can take advantage of this community-building opportunity. Make a big difference with your creative contributions!
- Politicians: This is more than a drawing project; it is a nationwide call for your attention. Your constituents are voicing their support for Operation Paydirt through the Fundred Dollar Bill Project. See activity in your city, state, and/or district here.
- Press: This is an important local and national project of interest in the areas of art, science, health, education, environment and social activism. An armored truck, three million kids, Congressional leaders, need we say more?

Summer's Already Over But I Can't Let Go of Beach Girls
And just like that, summer is gone. It's like it wasn't even here. At least that's certainly how I've felt every single summer after college ended. Summer just isn't the same as it used to be. Granted I like it way better than winter because the weather is tolerable, but life is generally the same all year around.
But one thing never changes in summer: girls at the beach. I'll always look forward to that.

Unplanned absences from work don't always find their cause in feeling ill. Cited in an article by Diane Stafford of the Kansas City Star, one-third of workdays suddenly skipped are due to reasons such as running errands, needing to relax, or just simply because individuals "'didn't feel like going to work.'"
An important point made in the article surrounds the topic of stress and this issue of "presenteeism" where an employee shows up to work but is too drained to perform well in his or her job that day.
For the SHRM, Kathy Gurchiek writes that "twenty-five percent [of workers surveyed] … said sick days were just extra vacation days and they treated them as such … [and] some people see sick days as 'mental health days.'"
As a result it's important for employers to keep in mind the mental and physical well-being of their employees in addition to their PTO policy and sick -leave in general. December is the month when most employees take an unplanned day off. But is this simply due to the cold and flu? Likely not. The weather is more gloomy, it's dark, it's cold, holiday shopping needs to be done, parties need to be organized or attended, and so on.
As a business leader or HR professional do you find these numbers surprising at all? What do you think needs to be communicated to employees?

You know I sure hope they know what they are doing this could turn out to be a very expensive movie. It has to be longer then 2 hours to actually give us a story. I don't know I think they are pushing it a little fast for my taste but hey I don't own all the marvel movies for nothing lol.
Review Rating: 0
Considering i hope they add a soundtrack that features the song by Nas 'Hero' clean version,it wouldn't matter to me how long the movie turned out.However,Avengers seems like it has all the pieces in place:Each character filling in the gap to show how they became an Avenger.The only problem i have is that War Machine was in Iron Man 2 but,he got dissed in Avengers(he won't be in it).No Wasp and no Antman(as strange as that is cause those two were in Ultimate Avengers part 1 and 2 the cartoon movie).

A mousepad is a small, portable surface that sometimes provides better traction for the ball on a computer mouse and, at the very least, provides a bounded area in which to move the mouse. On very smooth table or desktop surfaces, the mouse ball may tend to glide instead of roll unless pressure is continually applied. Some mousepads provide a slightly rougher surface so that it's easier to get the mouse to move the screen cursor. A mousepad usually has a plastic surface and a thin rubber or plastic cushion.

Athlete of the Week
Mickens Reaches 1,000th Career Point, Breaks Basketball School Record
Mickens, Summit Patch's Athlete of the Week, became the team's all-time leading scorer on Feb. 14. Here, Mickens talks about the team, this season and his plans for the future.
Ba'Shawn Mickens is having his best season yet with the Summit Boys' Varsity Basketball team. The #3 senior point guard reached his 1,000th career point milestone against Hillside in mid-January and just last week, Mickens scored 20 points against A.L. Johnson to become the Hilltoppers' all-time leading scorer. He needed 17 points entering the Feb. 14 game to break the record set by West Virginia University star and Summit native Wellington Smith in 2005. "I was actually nervous. My coach told me not to worry about it because he knew I would get my 1,000th point. He told me to get it done quick and easy so I could focus on the game," said Mickens, who reached the 1,000th point milestone in the first quarter against Hillside on Jan. 15. "…
