It was difficult to find something for a boys bedroom but this comforter set fit the bill! The colors are very true to the picture and coordinate well with the colors of the room. We did get the full/queen set which is on my son's queen size bed. I would have preferred that the queen come in it's own size; it does cover the bed but does not come down as far as I would have like it too. My son loves it and he said it is very comfortable/soft! We are happy customers!
It is difficult to find a decent comforter set for young boys, if one is not interested in animated character print comforters. I am very impressed with the quality and vibrant colors of this set and the price is just unbeatable. I have not yet washed it, but I'm sure it will hold up fine.
Exactly as described and delivered promptly! Excellent!
I ordered this for my 11 year-old son's room. It is exactly as pictured; bright, bold colors and looks great in his room. It was a great price for the item. I would recommend!
My son has been looking for a comforter for the past two years and we found this and he has been happy. The quality was nice and he has been happy.
The colors are vibrant and the fabric is so soft! I would recommend this to anyone in the market for a new comforter!

Goal Choice

Team Ratings
CFR Cluj
Mário Felgueiras
Rarely given much to think about by Braga and could to little for their goal.
Ivo Pinto
Strong defensively as he made sure that barely anything was able to get past him on his side. Stopped a goalbound header from a corner, and was a threat whren going forward.
Ricardo Cadú
A generally consistent display, as he was never really beaten at the back, and did what was required of him with little fuss.
Came alive in the second-half, and but for the brilliance of Beto, could have scored. Tested the Braga keeper with intent three times, but each time was thwarted, with two of his efforts going on to hit the post.
F. Piccolo
Held firm in defence and generally marked Eder well. Forced deeper and deeper as the game went on, but coped solidly enough.
Rui Pedro
A deadly performance that any attacking player would be proud of. All three of his goals - clinical finishes from inside the box - were taken superbly. The timing of his runs from deep positions was also impeccable. Excellent display.
G. Mureşan
As his side saw less and less of the ball, his role became more and more important. A series of timely challenges and all around superb defensive work in front of the back four helped his team to preserve their advantage.
Luis Alberto
Disciplined in the middle of the park during the first-half, but guilty of giving away possession a couple of times in the second period.
Rafael Bastos
Assisted Pedro's opener with a touch of the highest quality, before setting the second in motion with a fine pass over the top.
M. Sougou
Had Pedro not been on fire in front of goal then Sogou would have found himself taking top billing from this fixture. Simply terrorised the Braga defence on the flanks with his pace and ability to get to the byeline.
Sporting Braga
Could not do much for any of Pedro's goals, and came up with three stops to prevent Camora from adding another.
A bit hit or miss at the back, as he struggled to contain the runs of Pinto and Sougou. Needed the help of his team-mates on several occasions.
Nuno Coelho
Suffered from a few lapses in concentration in the first-half, but seemed to grow in stature when defensive partner Douglao left the field. Still a daunting task for him to hold together a patched up defence.
Quite an awful game for the big centre-back, who was found wanting for two of Cluj's goals before shooting his team in the foot with a needless red card for striking Camora in the face.
Some sloppy passing in the middle of the park offered Cluj a few chances to bomb forward on the break. Should have kept his concentration a lot better than he did.
Rúben Micael
Difficult to pick up when attacking just in front of the defence, and set more than a few attacks in motion with his passing. Teed up Alan for Braga's first-half goal, and was a threat with his deliveries from set-pieces as well.
Ruben Amorim
Rather uninspired on the flanks as he failed to really get going in the match. His team could have done with a lot more penetration.
Hugo Viana
Had a few bright moments when he managed to link play effectively between attack and defence, but after his team were reduced to 10 men he had to work twice as hard to try and make a difference.
Leandro Salino
Substituted just before Cluj's third after giving his team absolutely nothing. Suspicions that he may not have been fully fit.
Worked hard up front, and was an active, if not always decisive presence in attack. Forced himself into a number of good positions, but his shooting was off the mark. Eventually succumbed to an injury picked up in the first-half as he limped off for Ze Luis early in the second period.
Briefly brought Braga back into the game with a fine finish, but the skipper could not inspire his team to much more as he struggled to get on the ball.

Berries & Swedish Cream Tartlets Recipe
A friend of mine brought a similar tartlet to a party we were both attending. I knew I just had to have the recipe. I modified it and now my family loves them. Since they use mixed fresh berries, they are great anytime of the year.Maria Gruetzmacher, Stillwater, Minnesota
- 1-1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, divided
- 1/2 cup plus 4-1/2 teaspoons sugar, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
- 1-1/2 cups mixed fresh berries
- 2 packages (1.9 ounces each) frozen miniature phyllo tart shells
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup heavy cream; let stand for 1 minute. In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup sugar and remaining heavy cream over low heat until mixture reaches 160°. Remove from the heat and pour over gelatin mixture, stirring to dissolve. Stir in extracts. Cool slightly; refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Stir in sour cream until blended. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- In a small bowl, toss berries with remaining sugar. Place 1 tablespoon cream mixture in each tart shell; top with berry mixture. Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.
To Make Ahead: Swedish cream needs to be made the day before and refrigerated overnight. Editor's Note:These mini pastries can also be served in puff pastry shells. For six servings, bake frozen puff pastry shells according to package directions and cool. Fill shells with 1/3 cup Swedish cream and 1/4 cup of berries.

These were tasty. The cream was not as smooth as I would have like, with some "chunks" in it from the gelatin that wouldn't go away no matter how hard I stirred. The chunks were less obvious once the dessert was put together in the shells. Everyone liked them. Topped with strawberries and blueberries.
Reviewed Jul. 6, 2012
These were a BIG hit!! Great recipe. The only thing I had questions on the the Phyllo dough. I had never used them before and the pkg directions were not that clear. But they turned out amazing.

I was looking for somewhere to eat in and thought I had found a really cool place - until I realized they didn't have anything vegetarian on the menu and couldn't do anything to accomodate my dietary restriction.
Since I was hungry and it was lunch time, my husband and I decided to try out because, well, it was close. And, it had a really cool name. Let me tell you, it was the best mistake I have ever made. We live in Cartersville, but we've already said we will make the drive to Marietta to eat here again. And again. It was that good.
Service: We were greeted by a very friendly hostess who took us right to a table, which I was pleasantly surprised by since it was high noon.
Our server was fantastic. She came by the table just the right number of times - not too often to be annoying but not too infrequently so that we were left wondering where she was. She also put up with my bevy of questions because I am probably the world's most picky eater. And, she did so with a smile on her face. If she didn't know the answer, she went straight to the kitchen and came back moments later with a response.
When we left, a host held the door open for us and invited us to come back.
Location: Chicken and the Egg is located on Whitlock Avenue to the east of .
Ambiance: What I loved about this restaurant is that it's the perfect mix of upscale dining and being down home on the farm. Booths line the walls of the main dining room. In the middle are long, family-style tables with wicker chairs, and between those and the booths are smaller tables made out of dark wood. The bar area is located when you first enter the restaurant.
The decor gives you the feel of being on a farm. There are windows with faded wooden shutters and prints of roosters on the walls.
The servers' uniforms also give you the feel of being on a farm with their blue jeans, long-sleeved blue shirts and long green aprons. They mixed the two genres very well.
Food: Our meal started with complimentary biscuits served with a molasses butter. The biscuits were very light and probably the best I've ever had, and the molasses butter was a pleasant change from regular butter. It had a nice sweetness that complimented the biscuits well.
I had a sandwich called the Plant. I love that name for a veggie sandwich. It had grilled mesquite portabella, zucchini, eggplant, balsamic dressed greens, roasted red pepper and pesto aioli on focaccia, and boy, was it good. I told my husband it was probably one of the best veggie sandwiches I've ever had. The bread is made in-house, and it was delicious. I had fries as my side, and they were perfectly crisp and salted. And, the food was so filling that I didn't even finish half my sandwich and some of the fries. That just means I have another meal now!
My husband had the small fried Carolina catfish plate with hush puppies and green beans. The fried catfish will delight any seafood lover, but the real stars were the hush puppies. Diners will be cutting them open to figure out all the flavors packed inside. Diners from the South will appreciate the green beans cooked with onions that round out the dish.
Dessert: We don't usually get dessert when we go out to eat, but the chocolate cream pie caught our eye and, despite being full from our meals, we had to get a slice. I am so glad we did. It was the lightest pie I've ever eaten. It just melted in my mouth.
Bottom line: While Chicken and the Egg has prices a little higher than I typically like to spend, the food and service are definitely worth the money. This is definitely a restaurant to check out. Like I said before, we plan to make the trip from Cartersville to dine there again.

Enter The Dominatrix Spanks Saints Row IV On October 22
Posted on Thursday, October 10 @ 10:49:38 Eastern by Nicholas Tan
Owners of the Saints Row IV Season Pass have been waiting for this. With a humor that may literally be slapstick, the Enter the Dominatrix DLC will be available on October 22. If you wish to purchase it standlaone, it will be safely priced at $6.99 on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.
In this first expansion, Zinyak thrusts the Saints into an alternate reality, in a world with the Dominatrix as a devious AI program that sticks her army of prostitutes and latex-clad twinks against the Saints who may or may not slap them with the iconic giant, jiggly purple dildos. Along the way, the gang will meet new weapons and new friends to help take her down, in a threesome or a foursome or "however many people you want"-some.
Volition will be livestreaming content from the game on October 23 from 1-4pm CT on Twitch TV.

Before I started covering high school soccer in this area, I never understood the merits of the sweeper.
Outside of one season when I was 6 years old, I didn't play the sport growing up, not paying real close attention until the latter stages of my high school education before it exploded through my college years. During these past six years, I have paid most attention to professional soccer, and by the time I came around, the sweeper position had already became irrelevant, a symbol of the past.
Therefore, when I saw how many high school teams use a sweeper, I couldn't believe coaches still waste a player at such an archaic position.
The sweeper is normally a defender who doesn't have a specific marker or offensive player to cover, and he or she is meant to clean up the mistakes of the backline. Hence, why on lineup cards they are shown to be positionally behind the defenders, although sweepers don't necessarily play behind the backline. From the small sample size of sweepers in this area I've witnessed, they seem rooted behind their fellow defenders.
This differs greatly from the style I'm accustomed to seeing, which involves flat and often high backlines. These styles tend to use the offside rule as their friend, forcing opposing players to time attacking runs perfectly if they wish to get behind the defense. Although the risk of allowing a breakaway is high, a goalkeeper can fulfill the "sweeper role" by charging off the goal line and clearing off dangerous balls. With this defensive tactic in mind, the idea of sweeper seems counterproductive.
After watching the teams in this area, it makes sense as to why teams employ a sweeper. Goalkeepers don't tend to come off their lines and seem afraid of stepping outside of the penalty box, where they can no longer use their hands. This makes the tactic of a flat backline impossible to use, although the goal totals would soar if it is used.
To go along with this realization, witnessing one of the best defenders in the state, Champion's Jenna Parry, play a nearly flawless match at sweeper in the Golden Flashes' 1-1 tie against Lakeview on Monday changed my perception on the position.
The two-time all-Ohio defender showed why she earned first-team honors in 2012 by stymying Lakeview's striker duo of Alli Pavlik and Rachel Braunegg. Parry planted herself in the middle of the field to take away the through passes that put the Bulldogs' forwards on net, and whenever the two managed to get behind the defense, she won a tackle to clear the ball.
She was a major reason the Flashes held strong during the first half and kept it close in the second half before Amber Walker's equalizing goal in the 71st minute. She had a Man-of-the-Match performance.
Now, I can see the merits of using a sweeper on defense. While I'm not going to champion the position for all levels, at the high-school level, it's importance is justified.

Technical Committees
The Emergency Management Committee's mission is to provide APWA members with resources and a forum for exchanging and developing ideas, knowledge, and technologies for minimizing the impact and consequences for disasters. It also intends to foster recognition of public works' important role(s) in emergency management, including its strong involvement in mitigation and recovery, as well as to influence public policies that will strengthen the ability of government at all levels to better address disaster management.
A message from Kurt Blomquist,
Emergency Management Committee Chairperson, 2013-2014
Public Works organizations across the country are facing the "new normal." In the last year we have seen devastating wildfires in the west, historic flooding in Colorado, terror attack in Boston while still recovering from Tropical Storm Irene and Super storm Sandy and working to address the impacts of climate change. Public Works professional are on the front line for planning, responding, and recovering the countries life sustaining infrastructure following manmade and natural events.
Emergency management continues to grow in importance for public works leaders from preparation, response, and recovery from natural disasters to Cyber Security. The committee's membership in 2013-2014 consists of representatives from a broad spectrum of professional expertise, regions; from the west (California) to the Midwest (Iowa), to the south (Florida) and New England (Massachusetts), and jurisdictional sizes. Collaboration is a fundamental tenant of the committee. We will be working with the other APWA Technical Committees to broaden technical and educational opportunities. Each one of the Emergency Management members has devoted countless hours representing APWA to ensure and strengthen public works by providing comments and testimony on numerous pieces of federal legislation and rules, participating in over a dozen federal coalitions, task forces and workgroups. The Emergency Management committee is working to make APWA your go to resource for emergency management issues.
FEMA brought select APWA members to their EMI campus to evaluate gaps in training for public works professionals. As a result of their recommendations, FEMA allocated funds to develop four on-line training programs geared towards Public Works professionals. The committee recommends that every public works professional takes the time in the next year to take these courses. The programs are independent study and are as follows:
IS-552 The Public Works Role in Emergency Management
IS-554 Emergency Planning for Public Works
IS-556 Damage Assessment for Public Works
IS-558 Public Works and Disaster Recovery
The committee recognizes there is still much work to be done in getting public works professionals recognized for our role as first responders. We believe it is important for all members to acknowledge their role as a first responder by having coffee cup conversations and participating with your other local first responders (Emergency Management Director, Fire, Police, EMS, utility companies) in planning, training, and exercising to ensure our agencies can mitigate, prepare, respond and recover from incidents to the best of our ability to support our communities. To support this effort we recommend that agencies have their employees take the appropriate Incident Command System (ICS) training to become more National Incident Management System (NIMS) compliant.
If you would like to be involved in the work of the Emergency Management Committee or one of the subcommittees, please contact me (
) or any of the other committee members.

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare said Friday that the Scenic Fruit Company of Gresham, Ore., announced it is voluntarily recalling eight ounce bags of Woodstock Frozen Organic Pomegranate Kernels.
The agency says there have been no reported cases of the illness, a contagious liver disease that usually occurs when an infected food handler prepares food without appropriately washing his or her hands.
It can cause yellow eyes and skin and abdominal pain, but those infected usually recover completely.
Recalled bags were shipped to Idaho between February and May to a small number of retail stores in Coeur d'Alene, Moscow, Lewiston, Eagle, Meridian, Ketchum and Rigby.

I stopped in here for the first time on Sunday
Amid rows and rows of giant packs of macro lager there is some really great beer in this store. The back wall of the store is fitted with at least a dozen cooler doors with warm shelves opposite holding the bulk of the micro selections. Large format packaging fills the left side wall of the store. Celebration 12 packs for 12 bucks is pretty good for the area. Lots of mass centric brews as well as a fair assortment of the rest of the country and the world. The beer guy came out and asked if he could help me with anything and even made a phone call about some Firestone Walker beer for me. Pricing is average to a bit above. Its a bit of a drive for me, almost as far as Julio's. I would not hesitate to stop here again if in the area.

Really a massive store. Wines and spirits dominate the majority of the extensive space, and a couple walls of beers are in the back of the store, one refrigerated and the other shelved. Not the most blow-you-away sales, but the deals in this store are relatively easy to locate. Decent craft beer selection with plenty of growlers and big bottles (22oz and the like) are priced more reasonably as far as I have found than the larger quantities of craft brews are. This being said, colonial has a little something for everyone, and it is a fine store to get "lost" browsing in. Look for 22-24oz bottles of Victory and Sierra Nevada in the $3-4 range, or go here to look for that elusive specialty growler of Berkshire, Opa Opa, etc. I have not scoured the shelving section because it is unrefrigerated, but am not giving up on it either, as I have heard really wonderful things about what is kept over there across the aisle from the beer fridge. If you are looking for liquors other than beer, this place is chock full of 'em.

Colonial Spirits is my go to place. Good selection, with a very wide variety of Belgians, as well as most every US microbrew you'd expect to see. Good selection of local brews including growlers from Berkshire and a few other places. Lots of Pretty Things, which can be hard to find. Prices are decent but you come here for the selection - they rarely have any kind of amazing deals. They have pretty frequent tastings on weekends so check out their calendar and get on their mailing list.
Pretty anonymous place, which is why the service scores low. If you know what you a looking for, they likely have it, but don't ask for help choosing something.
Also, I really like the automated wine tasting - ask for a tasting card at the registers. They need an automated beer taster too.

This is a huge store with an enormous wine and spirits selection. Probably the best I have ever seen. I'm not really into anything but beer but I was still quite impressed.
At the very back of the store is a large shelf containing warm selections and facing this shelf is a huge row of coolers featuring their cold selection. The left-most aisle of the store (running the entire length of the store) contains their clearance section and shelves upon shelves of cases of beer. At the very front of this row is their super-high end glass case (saw a Utopias in there for example).
Overall, excellent selection. Good spread of styles and brewers. Beer seems to come and go fairly quickly here as the selection seems mostly new, dust-free and is ever changing.
Prices are quite good, and they offer 10% off 6, 15% 12 and 20% off 24 singles. Very nice if you are stocking up.
They have a decent web presence and Tim (the beer guy) is very quick to respond to email. He will try to get you things if he can, he will hold specialties for you as well. Very nice.
Overall, quite excellent. I would rate Colonial second to only the super amazing places like Redstones and Julios.

I go to Colonial regularly as it usually gives me more than enough to choose from. It is near my girlfriend's house, so I make a trip here every two weeks or so for the past year or so.
Pros: They have a huge selection and amount of options. They do have a few coolers dedicated to BMC, but three times as many dedicated to craft and import brews. I'd guess there are 12 or so coolers total mirrored by an extremely long four level shelf filled with more imports and crafts.
Their international selection is extremely comprehensive and what sets this apart from most other stores in MA. If you are looking for an obscure beer from another country, they very well may have it if its available.
Their craft selection is pretty good and covers most of the basics from all the different domestic craft brewers available in MA. I never seem to find the really highly in demand beers here (Big John being a big recent exception), but I have picked up Breakfast Stout from Founders, Lukcy Bastard, and Bitches Brew over the past few months. Almost forgot that this place had Zoe when almost every where else sold out of theirs in days.
They also seem to have a good amount of local New England and MA brewers. I can always count on the whole BBC line-up to be their, along with Wachusett., People's Pint, Clown Shoes, Pretty Things and Opa Opa.
Their wine and booze selection seems to be huge as well. Can't say I have ever really looked at those parts of the store closely, but it is big, no doubt about it. This place is big and almost has a supermarket vibe. Nice and bright, which helps it to always seem clean.
I hesitate to call these cons because I'm a pretty low maintenance customer.
There isn't always a knowledgeable person on beer. Their beer manager is really top notch and is there often, but when he isn't their, don't count on folks up front to help you find the something really intricate. The beer manager is about the only one that can give you really good recommendations.
I usually know what I'm looking for and how to find it, so this isn't too bad in my book. Their check-out staff is always friendly and wraps/boxes things very well.
I think the prices are pretty much in line with most stores that I frequent. They offer the discount at 6 single bottles, regardless of size, so a mix a six is always a solid option here. The discount get bigger at 12 bottles too.
Overall: If you are a craft beer fan and live near Colonial, you should really get to know it if you haven't already. Good prices, a beer for every occasion and style, and the great find every once in a while make this a place to frequent if you love good beer.

This is hands down the BEER STORE of all beer stores. A (3) movie movie theater turned into a store. I must start by saying that Colonial is a bit pricey as compared to local packys. But, their selection is unmatched.
Colonial must have (I have to guess) 1000+ beers for sale. Every country and virtually every state is represented here. If you love beer, Colonial is a one stop shop. You become like a kid in a candy store in there. They frequently have deals and tastings here ans staff is well knowledgeable in their product however broad.
If you need a Beer Advocate brew that you have seen here, Colonial usually will have it and if not they are happy to get it. They also have a mix-a-sixer. All beers can be purchased bottle only too.

Let me start out by saying that this is the best beer store I have ever been to, and then let me say that I have never been to julios. This place has an amazing selection of craft breweries from around the country, as well as from europe. I have only been a few times, as it is quite a hike from my house, but I never regret making the trip. I always end up with a few new bottles to try, as well as my favorites. The beer manager here is also very helpful. I have emailed him asking about several beers, and I had a response the next morning. most places have an email address, but never check or respond to emails. This place is large, clean, with a great selection, and very well run.

4.2/5 rDev -3.9%
Since moving to the area I've explored a few shops.
I really like Colonial, they have an amazing selection of beer and the mix-a-six is definitely a plus in my book.
The prices seem reasonable compared to other shops in the area and the discount on 6/12/24 is appreciated.
Customer service is okay. The hour I spent browsing was uninterrupted, which some may feel to be a plus, but I would have like at least some acknowledgement.
Altogether this is a fine shop, they have lots of space to browse and a huge selection (which makes me question how long some of those beers have been on the shelves, I did notice some dust). I will be back.

Continuing our count down of the top 20 Panthers to watch in 2012 as determined by the CSR staff we have rookie OG Amini Silatolu. It might seem improbable that a rookie could be ranked in the top 20 so quickly by James Dator explains his vote:
It's proof positive that so many of us think that Amini can make an impact year-one that he made this list without playing a down. As it stands the Panthers are putting the rookie guard in a role where he can succeed (much like Cam last year) by playing him at LG, and allowing Jordan Gross and Ryan Kalil to help him with his pass blocking. As the pulling guard Silatolu will immediately help the Panthers option plays, and create a formidable challenge to linebackers who look to take down the ball carrier past the LoS.
He does seem to have the best of arrangements with two Pro Bowlers on either side of him. Plus the thought of him pulling and getting out front and taking on a LB and bull dozing him like Brad Hoover used to do is a sight I would love to see.
Also, Rick Bates points out what Silatolu brings that we have been missing on the offensive line:
For Silatolu, I would add that he adds a much needed nastiness, and he is relentless through (and sometimes beyond) the whistle. He's a master pancake maker that many scouts compare to Jahri Evans. Amini definitely has pro-bowl type potential once he learns the nuances and adjusts to the speed of the game. Coming from a Division II program, there will likely be a steep learning curve, but he'll be getting his training while playing with the first team offense.
Those of us that did not include him were typically considering the kid has yet to play a down in the NFL. That's a reasonable explanation but he does come with high expectations. Hence he is definitely a player to keep an eye on in 2012. A revived running game will be a key to giving Cam more time in the pocket where he is just learning how to hurt an offense in all facets of an offense.

Updated 4:50pm Tuesday 19th February 2013 in What's on in Lancashire By Anna Mansell, Features writer
A TRADITIONAL pantomime for all the family opens at Sion Baptist Church, Burnley, tonight.

"It will be great fun for all the family."

Hahahahaha! Yup, I was drawn in by the title. Thought it was Richard too. But I like the tongue in cheek title. It IS true. So no harm done. And my kudos to Dr. Dawkins for acknowledging that many rational thinking scientists choose creationism based on common sense and the facts.
BTW, I asked a professor of biology who taught at a college in Philadelphia (up until June '12) what he had against the creation scientists' arguments and after much hemming and hawing he admitted that he had NEVER READ ONE ARTICLE BY THEM!....Oh. So I guessed that his denial of the credibility of their points were either a) regurgitation of what he heard other academics say or b) evidence of his "faith".

FOX 12 Oregon is now your official Rose Festival station, it
was announced Wednesday.
All of the festival's major parades will be broadcast live
on FOX 12 and PDX TV, including the Grand Floral Parade on Saturday, June 9.
Jeff Curtis, the chief executive officer of the Portland
Rose Festival Foundation, said the festival is excited to open a new chapter
with FOX 12 as the broadcast home of Rose Festival parades.
"FOX 12's commitment to showcase the Rose Festival
across a wide variety of its media assets will create new promotional
opportunities for our events and our major sponsors, resulting in continued
growth and overall success of the Portland Rose Festival," he said.

in new and unique ways," said Patrick McCreery, FOX 12's vice president
and general manager. "To us, the
partnership is a natural fit. The Rose Festival is Portland's marquee event and

KUSA - For three straight days the Broncos have been required to talk to the media, however some have spent more time talking to themselves.
UNITED IN ORANGE: Super Bowl XLVIII Special Coverage from 9NEWS - Home of the Broncos
The most marquee players get the podium on the first floor. Others get to sit at their own table on the third floor. All the rest sit somewhere in the middle on the second floor, bunched up together with two or three players per table. They still get the nice name tag, but they don't always get talked to by the media.
So he'd rather not have 200 cameras and microphones in his face like Peyton Manning has dealt with all week?
Britton shakes his head, "Don't feel bad for us, we're loving it."
Broncos running back Ronnie Hillman agrees, "That's fine with me, I don't have a problem with it. I'm not much of a media guy so I don't have a problem being a guy sitting here alone," he says with a smile.
The required 45 minutes to be available during media sessions can go pretty slow without any interaction, thank goodness for electronic devices.
Hillman was one of those with his head buried in an iPhone, "I was playing it was a little quiz game about music, just pass a little time."
It also helps to have a fun teammate handy. Broncos linebackers Nate Irving and Wesley Woodyard were sitting at their own table when Nate asked for our microphone.
Nate: "How do you feel just sitting here and nobody coming to talk to you?"
Wesley: "I feel like a lonely child that's been abandon. Good thing I have my good friend Nathaniel Irving around me."
Nate: "And there you have it."
Yes you do, it's not so bad being the "other" guys.

As International Women's Day approaches, three women arrested on suspicion of homosexual practises prepare for the hearing.
The public prosecutor's case against Martine A., aged 26 years, Estelle B., 29, and Leonie D. could not be held Monday, February 20, 2012 as originally planned because of the large crowds that this case had drawn to the City Court of Ambam.
Arrested on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 (Valentine's Day—the day to celebrate love), the three girls were held on suspicion of homosexual practices after a scene of jealousy between them made it possible for the police to arrest them. At that time they were taken to the gendarmerie in Ambam where they spent nearly a week in custody. They were released Monday, Feb. 20 from the Court of Ambam as the hearing could not be held due to the large crowd. It was rescheduled for March 8, 2012, the International Women's Day. The gay community in Cameroon is very concerned about the former Deputy Prefect of the Ambam region, who denounces "a vast network of homosexuals from Equatorial Guinea and Gabon that supposedly live in the region."

It's being made available by My Carolina Alumni Association in conjunction with the University of South Carolina Athletics Department.
Legislation, authorizing the plate, was authored by Rep. Michael A. Pitts of Laurens, and Rep. Garry R. Smith of Greenville, both of whom are alumni of the university, and was approved by the state legislature last year.
"This is a great way for alumni and fans to not only show their support for the Gamecocks, but also to help build support for the university and its students in a meaningful way," My Carolina Executive Director Jack Claypoole said. "We appreciate the efforts of Representative Smith and Representative Pitts in supporting the university through this legislation, and thankful for the work of Ray Tanner, Chad Holbrook and their staff and players for giving Gamecock nation a continued sense of pride in the university with their team's accomplishments."
The tags will be available for purchase from the S.C. Department of Motor Vehicles beginning Tuesday, Feb. 19. It will cost $70 plus regular registration fees. You'll have to pay the fee every 2 years.
Proceeds from the purchase of the license tags will benefit student scholarships at the university.

4th SOS Emblem Significance: Blue background represents the sky, the primary theater of Air Force operations. Yellow refers to the sun and the excellence required of Air Force personnel. The black disc with crescent suggests a night sky in which the unit is especially adapted to operate. The ghost specter reflects the unit's history and the aircraft named "Spooky." It further alludes to the squadron's ability to appear and disappear. The flames spewing from the ghost's arm denotes the firepower of the unit's aircraft from high altitude. (The ghost represented on the unit emblem was originally portrayed on nose art on the first gunship (AC-47). The AC-47 was universally called "Spooky" and inclusion of the "Spooky" ghost on the patch ties the AC-130U gunship to its original ancestor.)

Located at Hurlburt Field, Fla., the 4th Special Operations Squadron (4th SOS) is the largest of nine flying squadrons within the 1st Special Operations Wing. The unit employs the AC-130U Spooky gunship.
The squadron plans, prepares and executes AC-130U Spooky gunship missions, providing precise delivery of 25/40/105mm munitions supporting joint conventional and special operations forces. In addition, it directly supports unified and theater special operations commands by conducting close air support, armed reconnaissance, and interdiction missions worldwide in support of Secretary of Defense taskings.
The AC-130U is the very latest in a distinguished line of gunships. The gunship adopted its Spooky nickname from the AC-47, the original, first-generation gunship. The U Model gunship is one of the most complex aircraft weapon systems in the world today, containing more than 609,000 lines of software in its mission computers and avionics systems. Although it still uses the venerable Lockheed C-130 airframe, the AC-130U incorporates the latest sensor technology, along with an entirely new fire-control system, to substantially increase the gunship's combat effectiveness. The fire control system offers a dual-target attack capability, whereby two targets up to one kilometer apart can be simultaneously engaged by two different sensors, using two different guns.
All light-level television, infrared sensors, and the Hughes APQ-180 radar (also found on the F-15E Strike Eagle) provide night and adverse weather capability. To enhance survivability, emphasis has been placed on increasing the stand-off range of the gunship's weapons system and improving first-shot accuracy. In addition, a set of electronic countermeasures has been installed to help defend the AC-130U against modern threats.
The AC-130U is armed with a 25mm Gatling-gun cannon (capable of firing 1800 rounds per minute), a single-barrel, rapid-fire 40mm Bofors cannon and a 105mm Howitzer.
The squadron traces its lineage back to the 4th Air Corps Ferrying Squadron, which was activated in April 1942 and was subsequently redesignated the 4th Ferrying Squadron in May 1943. It ferried a variety of fighter, bomber, and non-combat aircraft to locations in Alaska, Africa and Europe. The squadron was disbanded in March 1944.
The 4th Liaison Flight was activated in October 1949 and was redesignated the 4th Liaison Squadron in July 1952. Its mission included transport, air evacuation, courier duty and reconnaissance. The squadron flew the L 13, C-45 and L-20 aircraft. The unit inactivated in March 1954.
The 4th Air Commando Squadron (Fire Support) was activated in August 1965 and was redesignated the 4th Special Operations Squadron in August 1969. The squadron's primary mission was to fly strikes against enemy forces in Southeast Asia. The 4th also flew reconnaissance, forward air control, search and rescue and equipment test missions. The squadron flew C/AC/FC and HC-47s. In December of 1969, the squadron was inactivated.
The 4th Airborne Command and Control Squadron was activated in April 1970. It provided an airborne and auxiliary command post and a communications link for Fifteenth Air Force and Strategic Air Command. It occasionally flew "Looking Glass" missions to back up the SAC airborne command post. The squadron flew the EC-135A/C and G models and was inactivated in September 1992.
The squadron entered its latest iteration in 1995, with the activation of the 4th SOS at Hurlburt Field, Fla. Following an extensive flight test program at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., AC-130U operations were transferred to Hurlburt Field in late 1994. At that time, the aircraft were delivered to the 16th Special Operations Squadron, which operates the AC 30H, the U-model's immediate predecessor. The squadron was officially activated May 4, 1995.
The 4th SOS Airmen participated in their first deployment soon after in October during Exercise Foal Eagle in the Republic of Korea. In September 1996, the squadron made its first operational deployment to Brindisi, Italy, supporting Operation Joint Endeavor in the skies over Bosnia-Herzegovina. Operating from Brindisi, Italy, the AC-130U conducted its first combat operations over Kosovo during Operation Allied Force in April 1999.
In the fall of 2001, the 4th SOS was again called upon, this time to fight the war on terrorism. It earned great distinction flying long missions in direct support of the Special Ops war in Afghanistan. The successful routing of Taliban and Al-Qaeda forces was of such great magnitude that congress approved the funding for an addition of 4 new AC-130U gunships.
In the spring of 2003, the 4th SOS played a pivotal role during Operation IRAQI FREEDOM by firing the first shots of the conflict. During the initial 2 months of action Ghostriders flew more than 1000 combat hours from 3 separate forward operating locations. Again the unit served with unwavering distinction and proved invaluable to the coalition's effort to topple the former Iraqi regime.
The AC-130U represents a major advancement over previous gunships and incorporates features to enhance maintainability and supportability making certain its crews, nicknamed the Ghostriders, are available -- "Any Time, Any Place."

Archived:Combining Qt Animation and State Machine Frameworks
This article demonstrate how to combine Animation and State Machine Frameworks. We will see how to implements the application's logic using a state machine rather than managing it all ourselves. And finally we will add both the animation and state machine frameworks to show how they can be used together, and where the animation is of standard widgets rather than of the graphics items.
Animation Framework In Use Qt's animation framework is quite interesting and the concepts are easy to understand. Practically the framework is based on QObjects and Qt's property system. . The simplest approach is to create a QPropertyAnimation for each property of each QObject we want to animate, and to give the property animation a duration, an initial value, and a final value. In this example we give a duration of 5000 milliseconds and initial and final geometrics specified as QRects. When the animation starts the object is immediately set to the initial geometry and then its geometry will be changed over a 5 second period to reach the final geometry. So if the initial width is 50 pixels and the final width is 360 then the width would be 112 pixels after 1 second, 174 pixels after 2 seconds, 236 pixels after 3 seconds, 298 pixels after 4 seconds and finally 360 pixels after 5 seconds. In this case the increment is 62 pixels per second which is calculated from the difference between the final and initial widths divided by the duration ie (360- 50)/5 = 62. Qt uses a much more better time granularity then seconds , so the actual change of width might be from 50 pixels to 52 pixels to 54 pixels and so on. We will also use the QEasingCurve class which offers over forty different interpolation graphs.
State Machine Framework In Use Using Qt's state machine framework we can maintain the state of an application. And like the animation framework is is heavily dependent on QObjects and Qt's property system. To set up a state machine we start by creating a QStateMachine. Then we create the states we nee (of QState or QFinalState) and for each state we assign property (QObject, property, value), so that the state machine set the property to the given value. Once the states have been set up then we create the transitions which specify how the state machine goes from one state to another. When ever there is a change in the state it emits an exited() signal to the state it left behind, it emits entered() signal to the state it enters and emits a finished () signal if the state is completed. Now when everything is set up we tell the state machine which state to use as its initial state and then call QStateMachine::start() to start the things. There are many functionality of state machine, but here we have used very basic of it.
Basic Idea To demonstrate the core functionality of the State Machine, we will create an example, where a state machine has three states, s1, s2 and s3. The state machine is controlled by a single QPushButton; when the button is clicked, the machine transitions to another state. Initially, the state machine is in state s1, also along with the state change we animate the button from an initial position to a final position.
The three screenshots recorded in each state changes
== Class Definition==
. #ifndef STATEMACHINEQT_H
#define STATEMACHINEQT_H
#include <QMainWindow>
#include "QPushButton"
#include "QVBoxLayout"
#include "QStateMachine"
#include <QPropertyAnimation>
#include "QEventTransition"
#include "QMessageBox"
namespace Ui {
class StateMachineQt;
class StateMachineQt : public QMainWindow
explicit StateMachineQt(QWidget *parent = 0);
Ui::StateMachineQt *ui;
QPushButton *iButton;
QStateMachine *machine;
QPropertyAnimation *animation;
public slots:
void animate1();
void animate2();
void animate3();
#endif // STATEMACHINEQT_H
The slots animate1/2/3() are used to animate the button from one position to another. The QStateMachine class provides a hierarchical finite state machine. QStateMachine is part of The State Machine Framework. The QPropertyAnimation class animates Qt properties. QPropertyAnimation interpolates over Qt properties. As property values are stored in QVariants, the class inherits QVariantAnimation, and supports animation of the same variant types as its super class.
Class Implementation
First we create a button of size 50x50.
iButton = new QPushButton(this);
iButton->setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Expanding, QSizePolicy::Expanding);
Then we create the state machine and states .
machine = new QStateMachine(this);
QState *s1 = new QState();
s1->assignProperty(iButton, "text", "S1");
QState *s2 = new QState();
s2->assignProperty(iButton, "text", "S2");
QState *s3 = new QState();
s3->assignProperty(iButton, "text", "S3");
The QState::assignProperty() function is used to have a state set a property of a QObject when the state is entered.
Then we create the transitions by using the QState::addTransition() function.
s1->addTransition(iButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), s2);
s2->addTransition(iButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), s3);
s3->addTransition(iButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), s1);
Next, we add the states to the machine and set the machine's initial state:
Finally, we start the state machine:
The QState::entered() signal is emitted when the state is entered
QObject::connect(s1, SIGNAL(entered()), this, SLOT(animate1()));
QObject::connect(s2, SIGNAL(entered()), this, SLOT(animate2()));
QObject::connect(s3, SIGNAL(entered()), this, SLOT(animate3()));
In the following snippet, the widget animation() slot will be called when states are entered.
animation = new QPropertyAnimation(iButton, "geometry");
animation->setStartValue(QRect(0,0, iButton->width(),iButton-> height()));
animation->setEndValue(QRect(310,135, iButton->width(),iButton->height()));
The button is animated from (0,0) position to (310,135) position while entering to state 1. and so as the others. We have also added an easing effect with setEasingCurve() function. Finally start() is called to start the animation.

Palmer is in to face Tiverton
9:30am Saturday 29th September 2012 in Local Sport By Adam Summers
ED Palmer has signed for Weymouth ahead of this afternoon's clash against Tiverton Town at the Bob Lucas Stadium (3pm).
The news comes as a timely boost for boss Brendon King following a nightmare week of injury concerns.
Sam Poole and Alex Jeannin still face late fitness tests but with skipper Scott Walker pronouncing himself fit, things are looking a lot more encouraging for the Terras who are desperate for a morale-boosting win.
Speaking ahead of the FA Trophy first qualifying round tie, King told Echosport: "I have spoken to Scott and it looks like he is going to be okay. Obviously, he is a massive player for us so it is a huge boost.
"We are still waiting on Sam and Alex but unless we are sure they are ready they won't be risked. With the size of our squad that is something we can ill-afford to do."
When asked about Palmer's return to the Terras, he went on to add: "His inclusion in the squad all depends on whether the paperwork gets done in time.
"We are pretty confident it will be but you never know. He has signed the necessary paperwork at our end but we just need to make sure it is done properly at the other end too.
"Ed has been at the club before and can play in several different positions.
"Primarily he is a defender but he can also play in midfield and will provide us with a lot more options."
Palmer, who has signed non-contract terms, left Kettering Town earlier this week along with another former Terra, Ben Gerring, who has since joined Cambridge City.
Weymouth have picked up just two wins from 11 and will need to be at their best against a Tivvy side that currently lie second in the league below (Evo-Stik Southern League Division One South & West).
The Terras are also scheduled to host Gosport Borough in the Southern Premier Division on Tuesday night (7.45pm) but that fixture will be replaced by a replay at Ladysmead should today's game end in stalemate.

Rated 4.5 out of 5�by 72 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by BonitaS Moving breasts? This is absoulutely THE BEST sports bra ever made for women with a bust size C cup or larger. Its somewhat a challenge to get off (especially since Im overweight), but its worth the challenge. After all, the goal is to lose weight and I cant do that with sore, heavy breast. Worth every penny ($50) August 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Activeincali Tough to get on, but great bounce control! So, I agree with others who have said this is a contortionist feat to get on initially, and it fits much tighter in the cups than other moving comfort styles. It provides excellent bounce control and is quite comfortable though! I have 2 of these and will wear them often. I'm a 36 D. August 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by RunnerChick1 Best sportsbra.. ever! Moving Comfort Juno sports bra is the bra I use for high impact activities. I highly recommend this bra to my runner & bootcamp friends, especially those that have larger busts. It's tricky at first to fasten, but after a couple times it's no problem. August 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Laura I love the adjustable straps and substantial construction! This bra is working out so much better for running! My usual bra size is a 32 D and sports bras are usually difficult to find. I had been buying the under armor variety which worked moderately a few years ago, but when they changed their design, they no longer worked at all. August 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by KK Juno moving comfort Great sports bra. Actually made for DD figure! Comfortable and super support July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Everblue15 Great support and attractive I'm very pleased with this product. Good support and straps adjust really nicely even making it possible for me to nurse my baby out of this bra, which I've never been able to do out of a good sports bra. Great supportive bra, I can do high impact sports and be help perfectly in place. July 15, 2014
