I love this bathrobe. It's exactly what I wanted. Is the quality superb? No but it's a perfect light weight, unlined, nicely finished summer bathrobe. It is very roomy. The reviews said it would shrink so I bought the lg/xlg. I did wash it and it did shrink. I am 5'4'' 135lbs and after the dryer it is still long and roomy but it is the perfect summer bathrobe.

I am hoping after a wash or two, the robe will soften up. was hoping for a "soft feel" which it does not have when first opening the package. Other than that, the robe meets expectations

Robes are great! Less expensive than most and very absorbent. The only problem we had was one of the belts was not finished properly and was shredding. Overstock's excellent customer support replaced the belt quickly.

I don't buy a robe very often. I've been looking around for awhile and not at all intrigued by what I've seen. Took a chance on this one and so glad I did! I love how BIG it is. Hangs just above the ankles and plenty of room throughout. Nice long sleeves. Gets softer after you wash it! Great value also.

I have had other "terry" robes that were far better for same cost. Robe has terry ties inside...they are thick and very bulky. The terry continues to shed on even after a few washes. Plus it should be longer. I'm only 5'3" and it's a bit too short. It will serve my needs but I am disappointed.

No way he goes to Dallas. He couldn't handle getting yelled at by Gru, he'd start crying after Parcells ripped into him.
What is the logic of thinking behind the idea that a team, any team, will offer a 3rd rounder for a free agent quarterback?He'll hit the market, the only question is if the Bucs will re-sign him or will he go elsewhere. I personally think he ends up in Dallas.
Not that they know anything but all the guys on Foxs preshow say hes a goner
He may not get any good offers. We'll definitely make him an offer, prob the small to med size, but not a starter's offer. He'll need to win back his job, it won't be given to him. I thought no way would he sign, but now hes saying he wants to be back. That's prolly just PC niceness, but if he does want back, we'd prolly take him. Just not for a lotta cash
Quote from: redwolf915 on November 23, 2006, 01:09:30 PMI mean if we re-sign him then they would offer... Hod do you re-sign him? Simms wanted a large contract this time last year, what possible motivation is there for him to take a low-ball deal instead of testing FA.
I mean if we re-sign him then they would offer...
Depends on if the Raiders draft a QB. Al would love to make him a star and shove it in Jon's face!
Anyone who thinks Tim Tebow will be a great NFL QB is an idiot.

I was roaming my favorite blogs one day when I came across this post. I think it is a brilliant idea and it was just the nudge I needed to get a Project Linus quilt made. It is something that has been on my list for sometime and I am so happy to have finally made one to give to them. When my sweet girl was a baby, she was diagnosed with a heart defect that she had fixed with open heart surgery at 22 months. It was such a scary time for us but I will say that it gave me a perspective of gratitude that I find so valuable to this day. I think often of how scared we were that morning we had to report for surgery. Thanks goodness she was so little- she had no idea what was going on. The time we spent there we met other parents whose children had things going on that made us feel like the lucky ones. And we were- they fixed her and we brought her home. But in the midst of that scary morning, a nurse brought Maya a quilt and gave it to her. It was her quilt that someone- a total stranger-made for a child just like her. I can't tell you the comfort it gave to us as her parents that in some way, someone had thought about this and done something so heartfelt for a child they didn't even know. It is an eye spy quilt- made beautifully, obviously by hands who knew what they were doing. She still has and loves her quilt. There was a tag on the quilt with the maker's name and I sent a thank you note to her via Project Linus as I didn't have her address. Somehow that got me on their mailing list and shortly after, I received a newsletter and in it was a list of the top donators for our Portland cahpter. I looked at the list and at the very top was the name of the woman who made Maya's quilt. And next to her name the number 768. As in she has made and donated 768 quilts. I can't tell you how that blew my mind!!
So you might remember the quilt below- I made it for a sample for my first line, Party Dress. It is a cheater print so it sews up nice and quick. You just quilt around the hexagons. Leave a comment and I will draw a name in the next few days for a kit of the fabric to make this quilt. I am going to make one for Project Linus (because once you start it gets sort of addictive!) and so I will cut out another kit for someone else who wants to make it and give it locally to a place who accepts quilts for kids.

The MAA Department Liaisons Program links the MAA with mathematics departments across the nation. Built on the former "department representative" program, this program establishes an important two-way communication link between departments and the MAA. In emails to Liaisons, MAA shares information about events, professional development activities, student programs, regional and national teaching awards, and other relevant opportunities. Liaisons are asked to distribute this information to their department colleagues and to respond with comments and suggestions from them for ways the MAA can better serve their departments.
View and share the latest MAA Liaison news here.
Download a one-page flyer on MAA membership benefits to share with your friends and colleagues.
Another important goal of the MAA Liaisons Program is to strengthen the ties between departments and MAA Sections. Section officers are informed of the names and addresses of the MAA Department Liaisons within their Sections so they can communicate directly with Liaisons on matters of importance to the Sections. Some sections link Liaisons electronically, and others bring Liaisons together at Section meetings. Each Section has its own Liaison Coordinator.
The MAA's goal is to have every mathematical sciences department in the US and Canada represented by a Liaison in order to facilitate effective communication. To learn more about the program, please review the Liaison Responsibilities.
To designate or update the Liaison contact for your department, please email firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you have other questions about the program or the committee, please contact Cal Van Niewaal, chair of the MAA Committee on Departmental Liaisons.

With Hurricane Sandy expected to make landfall on the East Coast in a few days state, local and utility officials are gearing up their emergency response plans.
Forecasters currently aren't sure if Sandy will hit in the mid-Atlantic states or New England, but at CL&P, which took a public drumming last year after two major storms cut power to hundreds of thousands of state residents for days, the utility is already preparing, and urging its customers to prepare, for the possibility of widespread power outages.
The utility has sent a request to utility companies and contractors in the Midwest for help and is seeking 2,000 workers to come to Connecticut by Sunday night, said Mitch Gross, CL&P's spokesman.
He said the utility is doing everything it can to prepare, but "there's no way to prevent widespread outages from a storm like this."
Emergency personnel for the town of Simsbury announced Thursday morning that they were taking steps to prepare for the storm.
CL&P, which provides power to more than a million residences and businesses, is warning its residential customers to prepare a home emergency kit and has begun reaching out to local officials to update them on how the company will respond if there are widespread power outages.
The utility, Gross said, learned valuable lessons after Hurricane Irene last August and the October Nor'easter. Each storm cut power to more than 700,000 customers, some for more than a week. In the months that followed the company beefed up its liaison program with towns, as well as tree cutting and tree trimming near utility lines.
"This past year has been all about improving our storm response," Gross said.
"We're closely monitoring weather forecasts and preparing for high winds and heavy rain that can devastate the electric system and cause power outages," said Bill Quinlan, CL&P's senior vice president of emergency preparedness. "…We stand ready to respond as quickly and safely as possible. While we hope for the best, we all need to prepare for the worst."
At United Illuminating, which serves some 324,000 customers in southwestern and western Connecticut, the utility also is seeking additional workers to help out in the event Hurricane Sandy hits the state hard.
Michael West, the UI's spokesman, said the company hopes to have an additional 300 contractors to augment its staff of 100 work crews.
"We'll just continue to watch this storm and try to be as prepared as we can," West said.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's office also issued a press release Thursday urging state residents to be aware of the storm's progress and to be prepared if it hits the state.
"Just as the state is monitoring and preparing, the public should do the same," Malloy said. "Some models predict that Sandy may move onshore somewhere in New England early next week. Although we are not certain the storm will impact the state, we need to be prepared. That means everyone, especially the state's utility companies."
The state's Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security is monitoring the storm and is prepared to coordinate any needed state response, officials said. DEMHS is also participating in National Weather Service conference calls to get the latest information on the storm's track and is sending out regular updates to all municipalities and tribal nations, state officials said.
DEMHS is communicating with CL&P and UI.
"Although hurricanes are unpredictable, this storm has the potential to impact Connecticut and we need to be prepared," said DEMHS Deputy Commissioner William P. Shea. "Because a shift in the track of the hurricane of just a few miles can have a significant impact on the state, it is important to stay informed by listening to TV and radio and heed the warnings of public safety officials."
CL&P and the governor's office offered the following for preparing a home power outage kit:
Flashlights with spare batteries
- A battery-operated radio or TV
- First-aid kit and medications
- Canned, freeze-dried or dehydrated foods
- A manual can opener
- Bottled water
- Baby or pet supplies (if needed)
- Important phone numbers

text: Although it has not been a popular opinion on other boards, I actually am comending the writers for showing the nuances between Meredith's reaction to Thatcher's alcoholism and the chief's. Meredith certainly has father figure issues, as would most women in a situation like hers. She has few if any memories of Thatcher as her father. When she does come back into contact with him she learns that he has a wife and new family, including a doctor daughter he is very proud of and adores. To her it seems like his drinking is just another excuse of why he wasn't strong enough to be there for her. There are obvious reasons that he wasn't there, but it still does boil down to the fact that Thatcher didn't fight for her. Then you have the chief. They have always had a strange vibe between them. She knows how her mother felt about him and how that played out. At the same time this is also her boss. She grew up in a world where she idolized doctors. The voiceover talked about her getting medical gifts at Christmas and there was the episode with the Anatomy Jane doll. She's obviously going to look up him with a mixture childhood adoration, respect, and anger over his involvement with her mother. To me it makes sense that she would be a little bipolar with her feelings toward him. It's a complex situation. I have two uncles who were or are alcoholics. Admittedly, I treated the two very differently. My older uncle abandoned his wife and two children and became homeless. He would pop up in my life from time to time wanting money or a place to stay. I was pretty mean to him, telling him just what I thought about him and his choices. He died in 2000 from complications. My other uncle is still alive and drinking. I don't condone his drinking or like that he does that so much, but I also don't yell and scream at him. One of the biggest differences I guess is that he and his wife both drink together. He hasn't abandoned his children. He still holds a steady job and is living his life. That is to say that I'm glad they haven't totally destroyed this story yet. I am able to relate to the complex feelings in it.

For more than a quarter century, Re:Gender has promoted the advancement of women and girls and highlighted the benefits of women's participation, active engagement and leadership in decision-making. In this project, the Council brings this same lens to the historically male-dominated spaces of fund management and the financial services more broadly.
Our report, Women in Fund Management: A Road Map for Achieving Critical Mass – and Why it Matters, explores the under-representation of women in the field, draws on research suggesting the benefits women can bring, and lays out concrete action steps for change. Specifically, we call on the financial services industry to develop a "critical mass principle" with quantifiable benchmarks and guidelines for increasing the number of women at all leadership levels.
At this time of historic challenge and change in the financial services industry, the problems are myriad and daunting – but the opportunities are equally huge. We must seize those opportunities and create a more stable, sustainable system – one that includes women as well as men. We hope you will join us in this project as we move forward and press for needed change.

Word of the Day
- Exultant; jubilant; triumphant; on the high horse.
- Tipsy; slightly intoxicated.
This word may come from the phrase 'to set cock on hoop,' or 'to drink festively.' Its origin otherwise is unclear. A theory, according to the Word Detective, is that it's a 'transliteration of the French phrase 'coq a huppe,' meaning a rooster displaying its crest ('huppe') in a pose of proud defiance.' Therefore, 'cock-a-hoop' would 'liken a drunken man to a boastful and aggressive rooster.'

BOSTON, Mass. — The Boston Red Sox World Series Domination Tour ended abruptly Thursday night.
The Sox were thumped by the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-2, in Game 2 of the 2013 World Series at Fenway Park.
That put the Red Sox one victory short of a 10-game winning streak in the World Series, going back to 2004. Had the Sox won, they would have tied the 1927 Yankees for the third-longest streak in the history of the Fall Classic.
At one point Thursday, it appeared everything again was falling into place for the Sox, which has happened even during the most dire moments this October.
David Ortiz — of course! — hit his 17th career post-season home run over The Green Monster, putting the Red Sox ahead, 2-1, in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Yet again, the Sox outlasted a super-uber pitcher, this time 22-year-old Cardinal Michael Wacha.
While Wacha dominated the Red Sox on the scoresheet before Ortiz's blast, allowing only two hits, the Sox eventually ground out 114 pitches in just six innings against him.
But, unlike any other time during this post-season, the Red Sox fell apart.
It began with starter John Lackey, who was outstanding through six innings, allowing only one run. But then he allowed a walk and single before handing the ball over to reliable lefty reliever Craig Breslow, who oversaw the worst half-inning of the post-season.
Three runs, two hits, a double steal, two errors and one walk later, and the Red Sox had themselves a World Series.
The Red Sox messed up, but the Cardinals played a role in those miscues, leading off the big inning by drawing an opportune walk, then getting a key double steal that put runners in scoring position.
"We're not a big base-stealing threat, but I believe we're opportunistic and when it presents itself, we have a few guys that can take advantage of it," said Cardinals manager Mike Matheny, who's next smile will be his first.

Modern parallels can be found in "Adieu" by Bernard Rands and "Of Paradise and Light" by his wife, composer Augusta Read Thomas. Both comment on the unique dynamics of creative/personal partnerships.

When Did You Start at WEIU? August 2006
What Does WEIU Mean to You? Local and national family-friendly radio and television.
Favorite Show on WEIU-TV: Hands down ... Heartland Highways! From the first time I watched, I was hooked; it takes me places in Illinois that I never knew existed. FYI: The hosts of HH (Lori Casey and Kate Pleasant) are as nice in person as they are on the show!
What have you learned while working at WEIU? That local is so important! WEIU has the opportunity to inform and involve the people who live in and around Central Illinois. The staff at WEIU take our jobs very seriously and we believe in communication with our viewers.
Why should someone become a member of WEIU? This is an easy question. If you value family friendly television and radio, then you should be honored to support your local television station.

JACKSONVILLE, Tex. — The feel-good story about a homeless man who lost, then recovered, his service dog has turned out to be a hoax.
Charles Lee Boothe, 54, described by local police as a "drifter-grifter" with multiple convictions in seven states, pulled off the deception in a recent interview with the Jacksonville Daily Progress, authorities said. They said he intended to receive money from sympathetic readers.
But the hoax was exposed when Boothe showed up drunk and muttering conspiracy theories at the paper late last week. Police were called and Boothe was jailed. Authorities said he had tried the same false story in Palestine, Tex.
"If he hadn't come back into our offices in the throes of a meltdown, we might not have ever known that something was wrong, very wrong, with his version of events," Daily Progress Editor Amy Brocato Pearson said. "I feel bad for all the people who tried to help him."
Details for this story were provided by the Jacksonville (Texas) Daily Progress.

From 1971 to 1974, Rattle studied atRead more the Royal Academy of Music in London. In his graduation year, still in his teens, he entered the John Player International Conductors' Competition and won first prize. He was soon appointed assistant conductor of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, remaining with the orchestra until 1976.
In 1976 Rattle made his United States debut on tour with the London Schools Symphony Orchestra. His first American performance with a professional orchestra was a concert with the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra in 1979. In 1981 that orchestra named him principal guest conductor, a post he retained until 1994.
Rattle made his first Glyndebourne Festival appearance in 1977, and retained his association with that insititution, lead productions of operas from the Classical period on. From 1977 to 1980, he was assistant conductor of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic. During this time, he also appeared frequently with major American orchestras.
Rattle's longest-lasting association with an orchestra began when the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra named him its principal conductor and artistic adviser in 1980. With a change of title to music director in 1990, Rattle remained with the group until 1998. During their time together, both orchestra and the conductor attained remarkable artistic growth; they went on frequent wide-ranging tours, including visits to Europe, Scandinavia, the Far East, and North America. Even after giving up his directorship at the CBSO, Rattle continued to conduct the orchestra's ten-year Towards the Millennium festival of modern music. In 1992 Rattle became principal guest conductor of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment; his appointments also include artistic adviser of the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group.
Rattle became a well-known television figure in Britain with an award-winning series, Leaving Home, the most extensive video production ever devoted to twentieth century orchestral music. He has made over 60 recordings, and today remains an exclusive EMI artist. Particularly honored are his recordings of Mahler's Symphony No. 2 (three Gramophone Awards), Gershwin's Porgy and Bess (Gramophone, International Record Critics' , and Charles Cros Grand Prix Awards), and Szymanowski's Stabat Mater (Echo Award). His projects for the year 2000 included Szymanowski's opera King Roger, Bernstein's Wonderful Town, and Mahler's Symphony No. 10.
The conductor has frequently appeared at the Salzburg Festival, and made 55 appearances with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra before that ensemble announced in June 1999 that Rattle would become the orchestra's chief conductor and artistic adviser upon Claudio Abbado's retirement in 2002.
Rattle's other honors include Commander of the Order of the British Empire (1987) and a knighthood (1994). Read less

Now they're talking about something just as unlikely -- winning the AL Central.
"We're just four games out of first place and in baseball anything can happen," catcher Victor Martinez said Monday.
Actually, the Indians are 5 1/2 games out but, hey, who's counting in the giddy, upbeat atmosphere of the 75th All-Star Game?
"We probably could," left fielder Matt Lawton said. "You look at our division and nobody really runs away. Nobody has really been dominant."
Martinez and Lawton were joined at the AL media madness by second baseman Ronnie Belliard and pitchers C.C. Sabathia and Jake Westbrook. The Cleveland section dominated the room, why not the division?
Martinez, 25, is probably the most surprising choice. The players voted him in behind Ivan Rodriguez of the Tigers but ahead of the Yankees' Jorge Posada. AL manager Joe Torre said telling Posada he didn't make the team was the toughest thing he's done in connection with this game.
"I knew I might have a chance," Martinez said, "but I knew it was going to be tough with guys like Ivan Rodriguez, Posada and Javy Lopez."
The Rodriguez-Martinez pairing is a delight for the Indians' catcher.
"It's a great feeling for me," Martinez said. "He's my favorite player right now, my favorite catcher."
Martinez, from Venezuela, and Rodriguez, from Puerto Rico, got to know each other in Spring Training. Martinez asked "Pudge" to let him know if he spotted anything he could do to improve his catching skills.
Martinez came into his own with the bat this season, hitting with power (12 homers, 63 RBIs) as well as average (.290).
"To me, he was great behind the plate and he hit both right-handed and left-handed [pitching]," Belliard said. "He even surprised me. But he didn't surprise the guys who were his teammates in the minors."
Lawton is hitting .305 and Belliard .304. Lawton has 15 homers, 49 RBIs and is in the heart of a productive lineup.
Sabathia is 5-4 and Westbrook is 6-4. Modest records, but they rank 4-5 in the AL's ERA standings, Westbrook at 3.21 and Sabathia at 3.33. The Athletics' Tim Hudson leads the league at 2.98.
They've got a pretty good supporting cast, too. Maybe they could make a second-half run at the title.
"Victor Martinez is definitely going to be one of the great catchers in the league for a long time," Lawton said. "C.C. Sabathia is one of the best pitchers in the American League, and we've got a whole lot of young guys.
We've tightened up the bullpen. We're looking forward to the second half."
Martinez senses a return to the Indians' glory days of the 1990s.
"I do have a real good idea of what they did in the '90s," he said. "They were a very special ballclub, always winning the division and always in the playoffs. Now we're rebuilding again."
Westbrook, who replaced injured Curt Schilling of the Red Sox, became the fifth Indian selected.
"It says a lot about our team," Westbrook said. "We have young guys and we're hungry."

Traveling Exhibits
The Orlando Science Center is home to some of the most exciting traveling exhibits in the country. When these exhibits are in town they are only here for a limited time, so don't miss the opportunity to see them!
Exhibit Halls
As great as our traveling exhibits are, there are some exhibits that are the staple of the Orlando Science Center. NatureWorks will have you up close and personal with some of nature's most fascinating reptiles. At DinoDigs, you'll step back into the prehistoric age. Discover the dynamic forces and systems that shape our Earth, as well as other planets in Our Planet, Our Universe. Explore such concepts as electricity and magnetism, lasers, soundwaves, and nature's forces in Science Park. No visit to the Science Center is complete without a trip to KidsTown, an interactive world dedicated to our smaller explorers.
Science Live! Programs
What's the difference between a great visit to a Science Center and a memorable visit? Live programs. Our exhibits are designed to inspire curiosity and exploration, our Science Live! programs are designed to bring the exhibits to life. Whether it's a show in the Digital Adventure Theater or a one-to-one interaction with a volunteer at the Crosby Observatory, our live programs create the kind of impact that can last a lifetime.
Science Stations
Looking for little more "hard science" in your next Science Center visit? Look no further than the Science Stations located throughout the facility. Science Stations are a cross between exhibits and live programs in that they're exhibits that typically include a live program to truly bring the experience to life. Science Stations provide an in-depth look at their respective subject matter in an entertaining way. Be sure to check your program schedule to see which Science Stations are conducting demonstrations on the day of your next visit.
Crosby Observatory
The aluminum-domed Crosby Observatory atop Orlando Science Center houses Florida's largest publicly accessible refractor telescope. This one-of-a-kind custom-built telescope, along with several smaller scopes, are available at selected times for solar and night sky viewing.

Posted in Science Park
Are you ready for some football?! Super Bowl fever is gripping the nation and the Science Center is no exception! Did you know that professional football players don't just have talent and luck on their side? There's also a science behind the perfect pass!
ESPN Sports Science partnered with NFL QB Drew Brees to find the scientific secrets behind his extremely accurate throws. Using a football outfitted with sensors and devices to measure everything from release angle to velocity, Brees tossed 10 perfect passes at a target only 4.5 inches in diameter.

Has anyone noticed that under the tutelage of Greg Olson, this pre-season Blaine Gabbert is 18-26 (69%) for 174 yards (6.7 YPA) with 3 TD's and 0 INT's and he's only been sacked once? Are we sure he didn't know what he was doing?
Olson is another teams problem now.
Not sure why anyone would use preseason stats are a way to determine if someone knows what theyre doing. To be fair though Gabbert has no WRs in Jacksonville.
What is your point? I was wrong? Ok. You win. I was wrong.

I've been craving polenta cake. Don't ask me why. Okay, ask me. It was the lemon polenta cake in the movie Dinner with Friends. Such a cake! And I didn't have any lemons on hand. But I did have a few ripe bananas. So I thought, Why not make a banana polenta cake? How bad could it be?
Turns out, not bad at all! I used my Banana Snacking Cake recipe as a starting point. The cake was tender and sweet with a big banana flavor.
Polenta Cake Recipe with Bananas
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare a 10 x 13" baking pan by lining it with greased parchment.
