Beyond Fabric x Purificacion Garcia #1
Following my previous introduction to its SS13 collection, I got a chance to style some looks for Purificacion Garcia using my favourite pieces for the season.
Starting with what might just be my first choice among all the garments in the collection, and one of the season's essentials, this suede bomber jacket instantly earned its way to the top spots of my wishlist. The beautiful taupe shade with chambray lining and orange/burgundy highlights on the pockets and zippers, set the mood for the whole look. A contrasting pale blue crewneck sweater underneath, dark denim with contrast orange stitching and supple suede boots pick up the chromatic and texture themes. The stripped knit tie adds a dash of color and pattern to the mix..

Rome: day 4
Despite the mixed opinions regarding cargo pants I have to say they won me over, especially if we're talking about slim fitting alternatives. Cucinelli is king when it comes to cargos (and so many other things), but until I can afford to dish out +€450 for a pair of pants, this version by Uniqlo is the next best thing. Plus, when you're traveling those extra pockets definitely come in handy. Some basic layering on top with an oxford button down, cardigan and timeless denim trucker adds texture, color and visual interest. However, the whole look is focused on the vintage white knit tie I got the day before at a flea market for €1; white is the last color I would ever consider purchasing a tie in, and I probably wouldn't have if it weren't for the price, but the truth is it actually works great with darker shades.
Details: denim trucker jacket by Levi's, navy merino wool cardigan by Purificacion Garcia, dark green oxford button down shirt by Ralph Lauren, khaki slim fit cargos by Uniqlo, brown/navy suede boat shoes by Buttero, sunglasses by Ray-Ban, vintage wool knit tie, vintage braided leather belt, watch by Gucci, socks and scarf by H&M.

Never underestimate the power of a knit tie…plus the color combo with the briefcase is brilliant

Although I have a thing against outlets, the truth remains that there are great deals to be had at a select few. This silk knit tie by Carolina Herrera was originally priced at 110€ and I got it for 10€: perfect feel, pattern and width.
White button down oxford by Ralph Lauren (custom fit), grey wool slacks by Gentleman Tailors (custom made), distressed brown leather boat shoes by Buttero, navy silk polka dot knit tie by Carolina Herrera, brown braided leather belt by Acne and vintage Citizen chronograph.

The MMA Rant 1.05.12: Daniel Cormier, Nate Marquardt, Pat Healy, and Dan Severn
Posted by
Scott Kuczkowski
on 01.05.2013
From Daniel Cormier being considered to fight Jon Jones in his first UFC bout and Dan Severn's retirement to Pat Healy's revolving opponents and more, 411's Scott Kuczkowski takes a look at the week in MMA!
Welcome to The New Year's Edition of the MMA Rant. While I'm sure the majority of you spent New Year's Eve in a state of ultra-intoxication, I was unfortunately at work. The result was that I witnessed a ton of buffoonery and can actually remember every freakin' minute of it.
UFC 155: Dos Santos vs. Valesquez II
unfolded quite nicely for us this past Saturday, and although much of the PPV card was fairly forgettable (and thankfully so) the co-main event and main event saved the entire card.
But, before we get to that, lets address some reader comments from last week:
Regarding Strikeforce: I'm sure we will eventually find out what the real story is. I just think it was such a shitty situation for the fighters whereby their contracts were with Showtime, and they just couldn't jump off the ship that everyone saw sinking. I liked Strikeforce, their HVweight tournament PPVs were all worth the money I paid to order them, which as a fan it's basically all you ask for.
I'm not sure we'll ever know the truth about Strikeforce or if there is even a truth to discover. I think Scott Coker sold his soul to make deals with Showtime and the promotion was screwed afterwards. Still, you can't deny that closing Strikeforce really just eliminates one of Dana White's many headaches. He can claim that he didn't want Strikeforce to fail, but the result is he doesn't have to deal with Showtime anymore and he gets to pillage the fighters he's always wanted fighting for the UFC.
Paul Daley: I just think this guy is an idiot. Koscheck proved his shortcomings, he got himself fired, got an extremely lucky break with Strikeforce, and then Diaz knocked him out. Some guys are just their own worst enemy.
I can't agree with you more on this.
On 2012 and injuries: Yeah in a perfect world maybe. Of course in a perfect world there wouldn't be injuries. I don't think you tell guys to lighten up in training. Realistically all you can hope for is that guys training for fights have the space to do so so they don't get injured like we've seen with people sparring knocking into another pair sparring and putting their knee out.
You can't stop guys from training hard though, it just wouldn't work. Is a solution needed? Yeah, maybe. Do fighters dropping out have anything to do with the insurance? Maybe. Do I have that solution though? No.
I'll answer this in my next portion.
Our own
Jeff Harris
from the 3 R's makes the woeful mistake of trying to correct me:
Scott your ideas about the injuries aren't really effective or possible if you think about. Regarding a study with doctors about these injuries that have been occurring, this was brought up on the MMA Beat a little while ago. One of the reporters on the panel asked a doctor about a study basically like what you just mentioned. And the doctor basically said a study would like this would cost in the millions. The injuries aren't isolated to just UFC fighters either.
As is typical, you've missed the point. A study like this would cost the UFC a lot of money (with that, you are correct, but only that). Paying for a study like this is called 'investing in your business.' This is that businesses do when they have a problem that is costing them money; they hire smart people to come in and study the issue and figure out how to solve the issue or at least minimize the effects of it. No one in the business world throws up their hands and says, "There's nothing we can do" when a problem is costing them money. In the case of the UFC, it is fighter injuries. And the UFC doesn't have to worry about fighters that don't fight for them; the UFC roster is large enough that they should get a very good idea about what injuries are plaguing fighters the most.
The other thing is, you are basically saying that the UFC now needs to regulate how fighters train. I mean the UFC already says rankings when they do their Fox shows. I mean they are hardly official but its about as close to official as you can get right now. I think right now, it's not practical to regulate how fighters train. We know they've now started the dangerous policy clause though we don't really know the specifics.
I don't know how you went from regulating training to fighter rankings. And, I can't help but notice that I never said regulate; you did. I don't think the UFC needs to regulate fighter training; I think they need to educate fighters on methods and techniques that are less likely to cause injury. If you think that is somehow regulating training, then I'd suggest you research the term 'regulate.' If the UFC was going to discourage some training techniques that studies show are more likely to cause injury, then the UFC has to educate fighters on alternate techniques that still give the same results but without the risk of injury. At the end of the day, it would be up to the fighter and their camp, but the UFC can at least make the information available to the fighters looking to avoid training injuries.
I mean honestly though what you are talking about is already kind of happening. Look what happened with Dan Henderson. His fight with Lyoto Machida isn't even being dubbed a title eliminator fight anymore. That was given to Shogun/Gustafsson.
Dan Henderson's dishonesty about his injury directly contributed to the cancellation of a PPV; he has no business even sniffing a title shot. And this is what should happen with every injury situation; the guy who was injured can work his way back into contention, but especially when he hides an injury for weeks. I'm not looking to punish fighters for getting injured, but other fighters are winning/losing while one is sitting out with an injury. I think it is a crime for the injured fighter to return and be put back right where they left off – that spot should go to someone else.
The other thing is that MMA training is not like training in any other sport. I'm not sure how the injury issue can be avoided even if you try and institute the ideas you are suggesting.
This is where you would be the businessman throwing his hands up in the air and proclaiming nothing can fix this problem while your company goes down the tubes. I'm not
this idea will fix
issue; I'm saying this is square one where the UFC needs to begin to head-off this issue. And no, this won't eliminate all injuries, but if the efforts save one main event, then isn't that enough? And while MMA training is unique in its own way, the fact is that nearly everything done in MMA training is added from another discipline; nothing is truly "created" just for MMA training. Wrestlers, boxers, jiu-jitsu guys, and other athletes train on this stuff all the time; there isn't anything superhuman about it.
I think fighters need to not be working in such crowded gyms where someone can slip or roll and cause serious injury to another guy for one thing. Or if you have a top guy or main event guy he needs to maybe not be filled up in an area with a bunch of other dudes.
See? Now you're trying to regulate their training and the number of people in their gym.
But, enough of that malarkey; let's get on with the news.
: Some down and dirty notes:
Todd Duffee
scored a nice knockout win on his return bout with the UFC; here's hoping he's learned where and when not to shoot his mouth off in interviews about fighter pay.
Melvin Guillard
Jamie Varner
both put on a really good fight; there were no losers in that bout.
Derek Brunson
Chris Leben
are scheduled to fight on another main card of a PPV, I won't be purchasing that particular event. That was 17 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Alan Belcher
Yushin Okami
was as pathetic as I worried it would be. Belcher lost all his stock with me.
I'm still not sold that either
Tim Boetsch
Costa Philippou
will ever be title contenders.
Joe Lauzon
Jim Miller
put themselves in the running for Fight of the Year with their performances. Really awesome.
Cain Velasquez
did to
Junior Dos Santos
what I expected him to do the first time they met. Junior has said he used the wrong strategy (gee, do ya think?) but I don't know that he can beat Cain with anything but another well-placed punch.
Dana White
made this statement about
Daniel Cormier
"He's is going to bring a lot of excitement to the heavyweight or light heavyweight division. And he could be next in line to fight
Jon Jones
Really? The guy isn't even in the promotion and there's already talk he could face the LHW Champ? How about making him win a fight in the UFC first? Or how about making sure he can make 205? Or better yet, how about making him win a fight in the LHW division before first ushering him to the front of the line for a title shot? Don't get me wrong, Daniel Cormier is a stud, but shouldn't he have to win in the octagon before he's given a title shot? Isn't that how things are supposed to work?
I guess guys like
Dan Henderson
Phil Davis
, and
Alexander Gustofsson
are shit-out-of-luck on this deal. (You know, since they've actually been winning fights in the division and whatnot…)
Uncle Dana also spoke about
Nate Marquardt
's potential UFC return: "Yeah, probably. I would have to say so...I was never in a bad way with him. I like Nate Marquardt. He's one of the nicest guys ever. But you know how I get. I get bummed out when guys do stuff like that. You're a professional. Show up here and do what you're supposed to do."
Yeah…that's real nice. Dana White gets bummed out when guys do stuff like illegally use performance enhancing drugs and ruin the main event of a fight card the day prior to the event…little stuff like that makes him bitchy.
Of course, Nate's been doing well for himself since his UFC release; he's fought one whole time between March 2011 and now – you can't fabricate a record
impressive. Nate seems like a nice guy and all, but how can the UFC even pretend to trust him ever again? This wasn't the only time Nate was caught with something in his system; he was suspended for steroids after his first UFC win in 2005. I know that doesn't make him a chronic abuser, but it does mean that he's dabbled in performance enhancing supplements in the past. I just hope he doesn't turn into the Josh Barnett of the 170 lbs. division.
MMA pioneer
Dan Severn
announced his retirement on 1 January 3, 2013 at the ripe age of 70 after 1,270 professional fights. Actually, that's a joke; Dan is much younger than 70 (and he's had fewer fights). Unfortunately for his fans, his retirement speech was somewhat muffled due to his coffin, but from what I hear, the pallbearers all said it was nice.
Pat Healy
said recently that he's frustrated he hasn't received a guaranteed contract with the UFC. He recently posted on Twitter that he's tired of fighting scrubs and being ducked.
Really Pat? The only guys you've been able to beat lately have been scrubs. When you're losing to the likes of
Josh Thomson
TJ Waldburger
, you're not exactly setting the world on fire. Doesn't this guy realize that the only reason he sniffed a title shot against
Gilbert Melendez
was because there wasn't anyone else on the roster for the champ to face?
Sorry Pat, but I don't see you beating anyone in the UFC's Lightweight Top 10, which means you'd be lucky to wind up as a gatekeeper.
Wake up, Pat; you're probably destined for Bellator or OneFC if you're lucky…MFC or Score if you're not.
And that's it for this week, gentle readers. Join me again next week when I hash through the news and cut through all the spin.
Thanks for reading…now go surf some porn.

Defense Department Investigating Military Child-care Centers
The Department of Defense is looking into the personnel and hiring practices at military facility-based child-care centers around the world after questions surfaced about the suitability of some employees at a center at Fort Myer in Arlington, officials said.
The investigation was ordered in connection with the arrest of two employees who worked at the Child Development Center at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall, which services children of personnel who work at the Pentagon and other Washington-area military facilities. The two employees, who were arrested Sept. 26, are accused of assaulting two 2-year-olds. The alleged abuse was initially reported by a suspecting parent. The two employees appeared in federal court in Alexandria last month on assault charges, officials said.
The investigation into that case disclosed that as many as 31 employees at the facility may have backgrounds that make them unsuitable to work with children, including drug use and prior allegations that they abused children, officials said. As a result, the employees were suspended and Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta ordered that hiring practices and personnel backgrounds be checked at military day-care facilities around the world.
"Military children are precious members of our Defense Department family," Panetta said in a statement. "As a department, protecting our service members and their families is paramount. That includes doing everything we can to provide for the safety of children attending CDCs throughout the department, and ensuring they are provided with the highest-quality care by dedicated professionals."
Army officials replaced the Fort Myer facility's managers in October, a few weeks after the arrests. The center was temporarily closed and the children were relocated to another Fort Myer center.
The Fort Myer Child Development Center, one of many on foreign and domestic military installations charged with caring for children of military personnel, is the largest among those operated by the Department of Defense. The center measures about 51,000 square-feet and was conceived as an ideal learning and enrichment facility for children. It provides care for more than 400 children aged from six weeks to 12.
"The safety of the children under our care is our most important responsibility," said Col. Fern Sumpter, Fort Myer's commander. "The quality of their care and safety has been and will continue to be our most important priority."
The Washington Post reported that the assaults on the two young children were captured on surveillance cameras.

Gov. Pat Quinn says he'll make a decision on whether to sign a concealed carry bill "very shortly."
Illinois faces a July 9 deadline to legalize carry of weapons after a federal appeals court found Illinois' ban unconstitutional. But Quinn has given few hints about what he'll do, even after lawmakers asked him to make a decision quickly to they can plan next steps.
Quinn could veto the measure which outlines who can carry. Quinn declined to give details Monday after signing a school safety bill. He says a decision is "imminent."
Experts argue about what happens if Illinois doesn't have laws in place by the deadline. Gun-rights advocates say it would mean any gun could be carried anywhere. Others say it would allow local municipalities to adopt carry laws.

29 March 2012The Japanese-built FEG-EPMA (Field Emission Gun Electron Probe MicroAnalyser) forms an integral part of the suite of electron microbeam equipment in the School. The €1 million FEG-EPMA was funded through an ERC Advanced Grant to Professor Jon Blundy entitled 'Critical Behaviour in Magmatic Systems' (CRITMAG). The new instrument will be used to analyse the composition of rocks and minerals at a scale of a few hundred nanometers. In particular, scientists intend to unravel the complex sub-volcanic processes by analysis of lavas and ashes from volcanoes such as Mount St Helens (USA), Nevado de Toluca (Mexico) and Corbetti (Ethiopia).

Town Square
New asphalt on Alma will be torn up?
Original post made by Nayeli on May 9, 2013
If so, this is a TERRIBLE lapse in communication between Palo Alto and PG&E.
I am also frustrated that PG&E is scheduled to burden commuters and residents along Alma for another six weeks!
It seems just like yesterday that PG&E promised "minimal noise" over a period of "4-6 weeks" that ended up taking quite a few months with incredibly loud noise.
Will this be a yearly intrusion?
on May 9, 2013 at 4:02 pm
Here is the City of Palo Alto announcement (which we also received in the mail):
Web Link
"Line #132 - Mid-May: Additional valve work on this line is required and there will be exacavations impacting northbound traffic at Alma near Oregon Expressway. More details will be posted as soon as they are finalized."
It seems that excavations are needed...which doesn't make sense given the recent completion (two weeks ago) of the expensive repaving project.
IF PG&E excavates the street, will they simply fill up the holes that they dig...or will the street be repaved with the same special mixture (containing recycled tires) to reduce noise?
If all of this is true, then someone really dropped the ball with this one.
on May 9, 2013 at 8:09 pm
I have lived in PA for 23 years, and since I moved here, I have regularly seen recently repaved streets be torn up for utility work. It's nothing new. However outrageous it is, it's just a routine thing in PA, including on major roads.
on May 10, 2013 at 10:14 am
I have lived here twenty years, and have witnessed the repaving of Alma twice before now. On one occasion, the street was torn up only two weeks later! On the other occasion, it was less than one month later.
Obviously, there is no coordination between utility departments and paving departments.

Among the remarkable starters are a truffle pizza topped with black truffle, caramelized onions, truffle oil, and reggiano; and the agnolotti of butternut squash and burrata, topped with brown butter, sage, and pecorino. A unique lunch main dish is the Cinque Terre. A daily, ever-rotating collection of five small dishes influenced by five Italian villages, the choices can include duck confit with green apple risotto, sage and reggiano; unique pasta and seafood dishes; seasonal salads; and one dessert. The desserts are remarkable. The pear fig tarte tatin is served with pear paper (a tuile made of pear puree), spiced warm caramel, and crème fraiche gelato, while the chocolate bread pudding is enhanced by chocolate sauce, house-made marshmallow cream, and candied walnuts. The attentive service, unfussy but elegant atmosphere, and excellent culinary creations make Café del Rey an ideal escape."
Located in Marina del Rey, Cafe del Rey transports diners to a beautiful, romantic, Mediterranean locale with its seaside views and crisp, recently refreshed interior décor. Cafe del Rey provides diners with a sophisticated, yet approachable dining experience, representative of the best of what Southern California has to offer in terms of both cuisine and ambiance.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass.—Look out. That familiar sight is the New England Patriots romping through December, looking like a Super Bowl team.
The Patriots rolled over Houston 42-14 on Monday night, stamping themselves once again as the team to fear in the AFC—and making the Texans look like pretenders.
Tom Brady threw for four touchdowns and 296 yards as New England manhandled the team with the league's best record. The Patriots (10-3), who already own the AFC East title, won their seventh straight and moved one game behind the Texans (11-2) for the conference's top seed.

pictures too small hard time seeing items, but over all ok
why can i not find the old fashion solitare as it was on my old windows 7
Very happy it loaded. Good game which I enjoyed, but far to short.
Game surely wasn't long enough.
I put in a load of laundry & started this game thinking I would have to take a break from the game to switch out my clothes, boy was I mistakening. I don't even think it's hit the spin cycle yet... lol.
All in all though this is a decent game, it loaded fine & though some of the items were difficult to find that was good, put up for some challenge to make up for such a short game.
I like the old site better, much easier to navigate
Too small of a screen!
would like to go to game I click on, not explore your domain
dont like this sit
Hard to see items, would be ok if I could see.
bewitched doll will not load. I tried several times. System sucks.
The graphics for Bewitched Doll are not very clear it is hard to see the items. They look nothing like what the game is claiming them to be. They are best to just take actual photos of the items instead of drawing them and then we will no what we are looking for.**
game not long enough, but it was ok
Fun but way to short.
Enjoyed it immensely ! Thank You and lets have more like it !
challenging with some of the objects, FUN
short but good fun
I enjoyed Bewitched Doll.......
i like your new format
how r u?
i like your new screen
objects are too small to clearly see in some frames.
great game
leave this site and play your game on your windows 7.
@debsvny Correct !! Much to short would have liked to play more too !

The Expert Parent on sibling rivalry
Q: My two young children are constantly arguing. Is this normal? How can I help them deal with sibling rivalry so life isn't always an argument?
A: Be reassured that your children are perfectly normal. You'd probably worry if they didn't ever fight.
Most parents soon come to realize that sibling rivalry is a natural and inevitable part of life with children. The only surefire way to avoid it is to have an only child. Spending so much time together can not only bond brothers and sisters, it can also cause the usual conflicts over toys and TV time, as well as competition for their parents' love and attention.
The good news is that it doesn't have to turn your home into a constant battlefield. "Sibling rivalry can be a headache, or an opportunity to teach children the life skills they'll need in all their relationships," says Adele Faber, coauthor of the best-selling "Siblings Without Rivalry" (Avon). Daily dealings with a sibling and the inevitable squabbles help children learn how to negotiate, compromise, respect others and how to be a good friend, she says.
Don't take sides when your children are having a fight, Faber says. Instead, "State, 'Wow! We have a real problem here. Sally, you're angry because Bobby took your car. Bobby, you really wanted that car.' Acknowledging their feelings cools them down immediately," she says. "Then ask, 'What can you two do to work it out? Think it over and let me know what you come up with.'"
Faber's key advice: "Learn to stay out of normal bickering...as long as no one is getting physically or verbally hurt. You'd be amazed how kids can work things out themselves when given the chance." Here are some books you can read for solutions to everyday sibling scenarios so you help smooth the way to family harmony and those you can read with your children to help them work out some of their issues or just to let them know they're not alone in their feelings.

This was pretty good, next time I will add some sliced mushrooms to it. Only thing I changed was to replace the soy sauce with Bragg Liquid Aminos bc it is non GMO.

This was pretty good, but it took the vegetables a longer time to cook
Reviewed Aug. 21, 2010
this was excellent! my entire family enjoyed it, even my veggie picky daughter.
Reviewed Apr. 25, 2009
Very good flavor, a little time consuming but worth it for dinner. Needed more crunchy vegetables and there was plenty of the sauce to support them. I like my stir frys with a lot of veggies. We served over quinoa instead of brown rice and it was very good.

Bojangles' franchise owner Tim Biakabutuka opened his fourth restaurant in the metro Augusta market.
The former National Football League player opened a 3,800-square-foot store Monday at 4544 Washington Road in Evans, just past the Wal-Mart Supercenter. The new restaurant has about 40 employees.
"That area is just a tremendous area, and the demographics there are probably the strongest in the CSRA as we've seen so far," Biakabutuka said.
A pair of new Appling businesses – a local hardware store and a discount retailer – will give residents more convenient shopping options.
Appling Hardware opened June 7 at 3146 Ray Owens Road. The 1,800-square-foot store carries everything from lumber, shingles and siding to tools, ceiling fans, animal feed and lawn equipment, owner Pat Marano said.
"Everybody out here is tired of running to town, including me," said Marano, who lives in Appling.
A corner lot in Evans currently home to a historic landmark will soon look different as a new fast-casual chain restaurant takes shape.
The small white and stone building at North Belair and Washington Roads, which once served as a teachers' dormitory and later as a gift shop, will be replaced with the state's first PDQ, a Tampa, Fla.-based restaurant that specializes in chicken tenders.
Plans are underway for PDQ, People Dedicated to Quality, to purchase the property in the next few weeks, with an estimated opening this summer, said spokesman Jeff Kamis.
A Sonic Drive-In-turned-barbecue restaurant in Martinez is changing back.
Sonic will reopen at 498 Furys Ferry Road in early August under new management. The chain drive-in restaurant closed Dec. 31.
The new franchisee, Mark Irvin, operates a dozen other Sonic s across the metro Augusta area, said his daughter and marketing coordinator, Jessica Irvin.
"The rest of the Sonics have been hugely successful here," she said.
Richmond County authorities are looking for a man suspected in a shooting Thursday morning on Second Avenue.
At about 9:20 a.m., police said DeShawn Demetrius Lowe, 27, shot a 26-year-old man at least once in the chest during an argument in the 2000 block of Second Avenue, according to Richmond County sheriff's Lt. Calvin Chew.
A nearly $2 million renovation project is underway to turn a vacant Evans storefront into a Walmart Neighborhood Market.
Earlier in May, Columbia County Development Services issued a building permit to Walmart for $1.9 million for renovations at the former Food Lion in the Village at Furys Ferry shopping center on the corner of Furys Ferry and Evans-to-Locks roads. That grocer, in addition to two other Food Lions in Columbia County, closed more than a year ago.
When local KFC franchisee Billy Wingate made the final decision to close his remaining three restaurants, it was done with a heavy heart.
"It was the toughest decision I ever made in my life," said Wingate, owner of the family-operated franchise. "It really hurts."
It was lights, camera, action for the Harlem High School marching band.
As part of Lauren Kent's senior project, the 65-member band and flag corps were filmed for a 30-second commercial the band member created.
The TV ad is meant to drum up membership and booster support.
"I just want people to know that band is out there," said Lauren, a clarinet player in the band. "I wasn't planning for the commercial to have this message but at the end of it, I realized it might just encourage kids to join band."
An Evans shopping center in danger of foreclosure was pulled from the auction block Tuesday morning.
An agreement between Bank of America and the owner of Shoppes at Camelot was reached the morning it was scheduled to be auctioned off at the Appling courthouse, said Pam Baldwin, a vice president for Blanchard and Calhoun Commercial who handles leasing in the center.
The bank and the shopping center owner, Detroit-based DH-Evans LLC, are working on new terms for the property at 4446 Washington Road, across from the Evans Wal-Mart, Baldwin said.
The prevalence of people texting while driving so alarmed Taylor McChesney that the Evans High School senior decided to devote two school projects to it.
As part of her Family, Career and Community Leaders of America project, Taylor wanted to let students see firsthand the dangers of texting while operating a vehicle, so she arranged for AT&T to bring the It Can Wait car simulator to the Evans campus.
Students were given special goggles to wear while behind the wheel as they texted a generic message. Nearly 100 students participated.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
No brand elevates British eccentricity quite like Mulberry. "Oh yes, we're absolutely bonkers," creative director Emma Hill said last night at London's Somerset House. "That's why Tim is so perfect for us." The Tim in question was photographer Tim Walker, whose new exhibit, Story Teller, sends English whimsy through the stratosphere. The Mulberry-supported show presents some of Walker's favorite photographs over the years, including Karlie Kloss jumping over a gigantic Humpty Dumpty, Alexander McQueen and a skull both smoking a cigarette in a poignant memento mori, Alber Elbaz in rabbit ears, the Monty Python gang for good measure, and, smack-dab in the middle of the floor, a giant deranged doll that once chased Lindsey Wixson through one of Walker's Vogue Italia shoots. Like we said, bonkers.
Kate Moss and Jamie Hince, Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton, Kristen McMenamy, Cara Delevingne, Tallulah and Amanda Harlech, Katie Grand, and more came by to take a look. "Tim understands the way we think, where we are coming from, and that is a rare thing," Hill added, explaining why Walker has shot the Mulberry ad campaign for the last few seasons running. "We're both slightly nutters, so there it is, a perfect match."

We're back with the prediction contest. With the 49ers on a bye, we simply add another game to fill up the options.
If you are new here or just want to refresh your memory, bignerd has broken down all the rules and regulations for this year's contest. For returning people, we've tweaked a couple rules, so I'd recommend checking them out.
I've posted the formatting rules required for posting your results. Please read over that (it's fairly short) so we can have consistency in the posting. All times are pacific and you are not required to predict every game, but obviously it helps your chances of winning to predict all the games. If you forget to pick the Sunday morning games, you can always predict whatever games remain on the slate.
Once again, please review the formatting rules before posting your results.
Philadelphia @ New Orleans - MNF
Dallas @ Atlanta - SNF
Denver @ Cincinnati - 10:00am PT
Miami @ Indianapolis - 10:00am PT
Tampa Bay @ Oakland - 1:05pm PT
Minnesota @ Seattle - 1:05pm PT
We implemented this rule last season and it seemed to make things easier for us. Previously, folks had just posted their scores in any particular fashion, although howtheyscored had made requests for a specific format. Given the amount of time and effort howtheyscored has to put into determining the final results, I am implementing a requirement for how to format your scores (based on the spreadsheet howtheyscored has created). If you fail to follow this format, any incorrectly formatted scores for the week will be disqualified. The format is "Team A @ Team B: A score - B score." That basically is visitor @ home: visitor score - home score." Here's an example of how to do it:
Using Minnesota @ Seattle below, if you think Seattle will win 24-14, here's how it needs to appear:
Minnesota @ Seattle: 14 - 24
If you think Minnesota will win 24-14, it needs to appear as this:
Minnesota @ Seattle: 24 - 14
If you'd like you can bold the winner (Minnesota @ Seattle: 14 - 24), but that is not required (although probably a good backup in case you reversed the score by accident.
If you make a mistake in the formatting I'll reply to your score reminding you to correct it. To correct it, simply reply to your picks and post them in the correct format. Do not post your scores again at the bottom of the thread. I'll make sure and include these directions each week so people do not forgot and lose out on points.
If anybody has any questions at all about this, or anything related to the contest, let me know (email@example.com) and I'll answer them.

Daimler India to drive in Actros trucks next year
Our Bureau
New Delhi , Sept 2
DAIMLER Chrysler India on Thursday said it plans to launch its premium commercial vehicle, Actros, in India early next year and will also introduce the next generation S-Class Mercedes in the latter half of 2006.
"We are at the end of the homologation stage and will deliver the first Actros in early 2006. This would be in the completely built unit (CBU) format," the President of Daimler Chrysler India, Mr Hans Michael Huber, said here on the sidelines of the SIAM Annual Convention.
He said the company sold 80,000 units of Actros globally last year, with the major markets being Europe and West Asia. The Actros trucks will compete with Volvo in India. According to sources, Daimler Chrysler would be coming out with two models of the Actros - a 33-tonner and a 40-tonner.
On the pricing of the new Mercedes S-Class, Mr Huber said that it would be priced above the present S-Class price band of Rs 60-65 lakh.
This year the company has so far sold about 125 S-Class cars, which are priced at about Rs 65 lakh.
Meanwhile, company officials said that Daimler Chrysler expects to buy auto parts worth 85 million euros from India in the current calendar year.
In 2004, the company sourced parts worth 79 million euros from the country.

The Nevada State Contractors Board (NSCB) is warning about an unlicensed contractor who has been operating in both southern and northern Nevada.

Smith is known for taking on commercial projects but may also do residential work.
Smith is described as 5'11", 185 pounds with blonde hair and blue eyes. He has tattoos on the back of both arms. He currently has a warrant out for his arrest for contracting without a license.
"Unlicensed contractors who refuse to adhere to state laws are placing their customers at a huge risk and disadvantage should something go wrong during the project," said NSCB Executive Officer Margi Grein. "We encourage anyone who comes into contact with Mr. Smith to please contact the board or their local law enforcement immediately."

Arris Group Rises On Unusually High Volume (ARRS)
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Arris Group (Nasdaq:ARRS) is trading at unusually high volume Thursday with 4.7 million shares changing hands. It is currently at four times its average daily volume and trading up 47 cents (+3.6%) at $13.66 as of 2:51 p.m. ET. Arris Group has a market cap of $1.6 billion and is part of the technology sector and telecommunications industry. Shares are up 17.6% year to date as of the close of trading on Wednesday. ARRIS Group, Inc. develops, manufactures, and supplies telephony, data, video, construction, rebuild, and maintenance equipment for the broadband communications industry worldwide. The company has a P/E ratio of 19.7, equal to the average telecommunications industry P/E ratio and below the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 23.5. TheStreet Ratings rates Arris Group as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, reasonable valuation levels, solid stock price performance, expanding profit margins and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income. You can view the full Arris Group Ratings Report.

Who can resist historical trivia? Those tasty little tidbits about life in the "olden days" are just too delicious to pass up. But when it comes to medieval trivia, beware. Many of the stray "interesting facts" you'll encounter about the Middle Ages cannot be considered at all accurate.
Medieval studies, much like ancient history, is fraught with common misconceptions. When dealing with a historical period about which more is unknown than known, it's easy for an unsubstantiated theory to work its way into the lore of our past and become entrenched in popular culture. Disproving some of these so-called "facts" can be exceedingly difficult -- even impossible; and while the theories themselves cannot be substantiated, they die hard.
Erroneous trivia comes in all flavors. Sometimes, it's a generalization or imprecise factoid that can lead people to make assumptions about the entire Middle Ages. For example:
In medieval times, silver was once considered more precious than gold because of its scarcity.1
Anyone reading this might think that silver was scarce throughout medieval Europe. Yet, while the Byzantine gold standard influenced other coinage systems in Europe for centuries, standards for various economies in Europe varied from region to region and from era to era. Silver was generally considered inferior to gold, and silver coins were almost always less valuable than gold coins of the same size or smaller.
In the eighth century, thanks in part to a gold shortage, Charlemagne's father Piippin the Short replaced gold with silver in the Carolingian economy when he introduced the denier coin. The silver-based system, later reorganized by Charlemagne, would serve as the basis for most medieval coinage in northern Europe.
There were definitely gold shortages in parts of Europe at various times, and there may once have been a silver shortage that lasted long enough for silver to be considered rare, and therefore more valuable than gold. But if so, this little tidbit of info does nothing to shed light on where or when the shortage took place.
A Scandalous Queen?
In some cases, eyebrow-raising facts are accompanied by one scandal too many. Take this remarkable woman:
Eleanor of Aquitaine accompanied her first husband, Louis, King of France on the second Crusade. At one point she dressed her ladies as Amazons and rode barebreasted.2
It's true that Eleanor rode on Crusade with Louis; she did indeed dress to resemble an Amazon, or so it is recorded in the chronicle of an eyewitness. And knowing what we know about the indomitable Eleanor, it's not inconceivable that she should have tried something as brazen as showing some skin. Yet if there is any contemporary documentation about Eleanor going bare-breasted, it remains obscure to the point of nonexistence.
This lovely little legend may be impossible to kill. Katharine Hepburn as Eleanor in The Lion in Winter delivered a delightful quote about the alleged incident ("Louis had a seizure and I damn near died of windburn... but the troops were dazzled."). Rumor has it that the item appears in a biography of Eleanor, though I have yet to find it. But even if it was printed in a history book, it's not necessarily the truth. Unless there is an opportunity to examine the sources this alleged biography used, the rumor can only remain a rumor.
Obviously, it's impossible to prove a negative; just because we can't find any evidence that Eleanor rode bare-chested doesn't mean she didn't do so. But such a scandalous act would have been extremely difficult to suppress, especially when those who chronicled events were not under the thumb of the pious Louis, or of anyone else who would not want the event recorded. Until someone shows you a 12th-century chronicle or letter that mentions Eleanor risking serious sunburn, it's probably safest to consider this a fable and nothing more.

For millions of people, travel by air is a confounding, uncomfortable, and even fearful experience. Patrick Smith, airline pilot and author of the Web's popular "Ask the Pilot" column, separates fact from fallacy and tells you everything you need to know:
Cockpit Confidential covers not only the nuts and bolts of flying, but also the grand theater of air travel, from airport architecture to inflight service to the excitement of travel abroad. It's a thoughtful, funny, at times deeply personal look into the strange and misunderstood world of commercial flying.

"Stuck on the runway"
This book is as boring as the narrator was who read it. If this book was the black-box flight recorder, you wouldn't recover it to find out what went wrong. Just leave it.
A trivial man
"I want my time back!"
A petulant, whiny author with a self serving agenda, who took time from flying around on his high horse to write an almost unreadable book. Kudos, to the narrator for breathing at least a little life into this otherwise benighted tome.
"air travel 101"
Sadly, not much here. A mile wide and an inch deep. Patrick Smith has good intentions here, but chooses no to go into depth on anything, except his commentary on airplane logos and paint jobs.

Must-See DUMBO: 10 Great Things to See and Do
by Ben Detrick, 01/01/2010

- more neighborhood guides/
- recently/
With its rumbling of trains overhead, cobblestone streets and cavernous spaces carved out of former factories, DUMBO (an acronym for "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass") exudes a cool, urban grandeur that sets it apart from bustling Downtown Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan. Nestled between the Manhattan Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge, this neighborhood has transformed during the past few decades from an industrial zone into an enclave of airy lofts, unique galleries and fashionable boutiques. DUMBO has a little bit of everything in precisely the right proportions—you can browse through a hip bookstore or two, visit several galleries, pick up some Japanese pop-culture magazines and then take in an avant-garde theatrical performance. The outdoor expanses of Brooklyn Bridge Park provide the perfect place to unwind and let the kids run free as well as offer striking, iconic views of the East River and a magnificent perspective of Lower Manhattan. Then it's back to scampering across the cobblestone streets for art books, Danish furniture and French chocolates.

The city of Picayune will issue $3 million in utility system revenue bonds to upgrade and extend the local natural gas lines. The city operates its own natural gas system
The Picayune Item reports that city clerk Amber Hinton told the city council that the bonds would be repaid out of the utility fund. She says no tax increase or increase in utility gas rates would result from issuance of the bonds.
A recent annexation means an extension of the natural gas lines and utilities into new areas of the city. The city also must remove a large portion of old cast iron gas lines that officials think are leaking.

Can we just go ahead an admit the truth?
by Socraticsilence, Wed Mar 19, 2008 at 09:59:11 PM EDT
I think we should just go ahead and be honest, any major black politician in the Democratic party today is likely to have ties or associations to a Pastor like Wright. Given that can we just go ahead and admit that there wont be a Black Presidential Canidate with crossover appeal on our side until the Civil rights generation dies off.
Once we go ahead an realize that I think we should also realize that it would be wise for any smart ambitious African-American politician to join the GOP, as in the Democratic party the only way to rise is through the Black Church structure (lets be real outside of the inner city a Black man will not win the Democratic primary). I think that unless we wait half a century or so, the first Black President (unless Obama pulls it out) will certainly be a Republican, and in the end thats probably fitting given that they are the party of Lincoln.
As a final thought, its ironic to note that if we applied the same standards to whites that we do to Blacks, Clinton wouldn't even be a canidate, what with Bill's mentor being Fullbright a member in Good Standing of the George Wallace wing of the party.

NEW PEKIN, IN (WDRB) -- The signs and symptoms of the tornado are still prevalent in an open field in New Pekin, Indiana. Aluminum siding is still here, along with a set of stairs that used to lead to ahouse. It's been a difficult year, even for those who survived it.
"We watched it come over the hill. My son video it all," said Gene Lewellyn, a tornado survivor. "He came running down the stairs and said 'Dad, we gotta get out of here.' I said we don't have time to get out of here now."
Gene Lewellyn and his children weathered through the March 2nd, 2012 tornado together - huddled in their basement.
It took heavy machines months to clean up from the tornado that took only a few seconds to wipe out Gene and his wife Jeanie's home.
"We moved back several years about 34 years in 5 minutes time," he said.
The most difficult scene - he says - was learning they lost their neighbors the Babcocks - a young family of five who were killed in an instant. The youngest child, an infant named Angel, was rescued but died days later at Kosair Children's Hospital in Louisville, KY.
"And that little angel, we seen them carry her out of the field and she looked like a little mud baby... She was covered in mud and that was tough," said Gene Lewellyn.
The Lewellyns have since rebuilt their home. But they've been through 7 insurance adjusters, 5 contractors and are still out thousands of dollars.
"It's different. I'm not going to cry," said Jeanie Lewellyn.
Talk of the tornado, makes her upset.
Jeanie says she tries not to think about those who died because it upsets her. She often places flowers at the memorial site across the street where the Babcocks once lived.
Gene Lewellyn says he thinks most of the town has since gotten over the tornado. He says it's still fresh in his mind because of the fact they live in such close proximity to the devastation.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Peoria area residents got a chance to hear from Republican gubernatorial candidates Sunday night.
Gubernatorial candidates State Senator Kirk Dillard and State Senator Bill Brady both spoke at the Lincoln Day Dinner in Peoria.
Both candidates agreed that the state's economy is a number one priority.
"Our whole campaign is about what were going to do to restore economic vibrance to Illinois to bring jobs back and help our fiscal budget," said State Senator Bill Brady. "It will help people get back to work and on their feet and it's going to improve the climate of our state."
"Well the first thing I need to do is make Illinois what I call a destination economy for people who people that create jobs," said State Senator Kirk Dillard. "We are overtaxed, we are greatly over regulated, and we need job creation."
Republican candidates Dan Rutherford and Bruce Rauner did not attend the dinner.

New arrivals at RDC
Riverside Discovery Center announced some new arrivals to the zoo Thursday. A female Muntjac was born on Sunday, April 7 and was named "Boston". This small deer can be seen with her family in the Muntjac exhibit. Muntjac are rare small barking deer found in Asian rainforests. Muntjac are one of 16 Species Survival Plan (SSP) animals at RDC. The SSP are programs are managed by AZA (Association of Zoos and Aquariums) committees to ensure the proper management of rare and endangered species with the ultimate goal of species propagation.
On the day of Boston's birth, RDC also received two zebras from the Tulsa Zoo in Tulsa, Okla. Half-sisters Zia (6 years) and Zelda (5 years) were placed in the sand paddock and were introduced to our male zebra, Amigo, through a fence, during an introductory process called "howdying".
Zoo Director Peter Halliday says the zebras had already completed their 30-day mandatory quarantine at the Tulsa Zoo and it was planned to place them with Amigo as soon as the snow storm and freezing temperatures had passed. Unfortunately, Halliday says circumstances occurred that changed those plans. Just before noon on Wednesday, April 10, snow slid off the roof of the zebra barn and made a loud noise, which startled Zia and Zelda. Both zebras ran into the paddock fence and Zelda received a small cut on her face, but Zia broke her neck, resulting in her death. The temperament of zebras causes them to become stressed when startled, thus making them more susceptible to such injuries.
Zelda has since been placed with Amigo and they have been inseparable ever since. Amigo and Zelda are Grant's Zebra that live on the plains in Africa. The average life span of Grant's Zebras is between 25 and 30 years in human care. Both Amigo and Zelda are part of an animal population managed by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums' Species Survival Plan.
New arrivals, including Zelda and Boston, may be seen at the Riverside Discovery Center daily from 9:30 a.m. 4:30 p.m. Call 308-630-6236 for more information. RDC is an AZA-accredited zoo in Scottsbluff, NE.

Dolphins Extend Winning Streak to Six Games
Related Links
DAYTONA, Fla.--- The JU softball team kept its winning streak alive Wednesday night when it defeated the Bethune-Cookman 1-0 in Daytona. The Dolphins beat the Wildcats for the third time this season.
Jacksonville (27-10, 8-3 A-Sun) did not win big like it had in the previous five wins in its winning streak, but instead a Bethune-Cookman (8-28) miscue and some timely hitting to squeak out the game's only run.
Freshman Taylor Rossman (4-4) gave the Dolphins five innings of scoreless work allowing just four hits and one walk to pick up the win.
The lone run of the game came in the top of the second inning.
Third baseman Ashley Simon reached on an error by the shortstop to lead off the inning. Karson Tuck followed with a double to right field to give the Dolphins runners on second and third. Junior first baseman Meagan Balding then lifted a pitch deep enough into left field for Simon to tag up on and score the run.
The Wildcats outhit the Dolphins 6-5 and loaded the bases twice but had nothing to show for it.
