Questions & Answers
"Hi, will this barstool have a plastic floor protector on the bottom of the pedestal?" asked by Nagsharyli
Hillsdale Aspen 24" Adjustable Swivel Bar Stool with Cushion
Beyond my expectations
Mary from ,– Verified Buyer
Way beyond my expectations, extremely comfortable, HUGE seat (about 23" wide, really, really big!) and ridiculously simple to put together. Glad I took the risk. And the color is beautiful as well. I suppose the base could be a tad bit heavier - but not a huge issue in my mind.
Tammy from Crownsville, MD
Excellent price, easy to assemble, nice adjustable height, very comfortable for extended sitting. Love these stools!
Nice Stool
Tamara from DEARBORN HEIGHTS, MI
Love these stools --- very comfortable !
Not too modern.
Summer from Spring, TX– Verified Buyer
This was a great deal for an adjustable, swivel barstool that I felt was not as modern as most. The color is as pictured and the construction seems sturdy. We've been using them for about two weeks now every day. The one thing that was slightly frustrating about putting them together is the chair to post screw holes were not drilled very accurately. This made at least one screw per chair very difficult to get secured. Great chairs otherwise, I find them very comfortable and functional.
Love these chairs!
Lissa from Woodward, OK– Verified Buyer
They were easy to put together. Sturdy and great quality!
Good Product
Steven from Woodstock, GA– Verified Buyer
The chairs are very comfortable. The assembly was easy and the bronze looks great in my kitchen. The adjustable feature is easy to use.
great barstools

Dawn from Apple Valley, CA– Verified Buyer
These are exactly as described and pictured. They are comfy and they look great in my bar room and kitchen island.

I did receive and am very happy with this barstools. It is working out very well for me. The size and the quality are both great and exactly what I was expecting.
Great product
Tea from Orange, CT– Verified Buyer
Great looking and functional product. It has a rich leather look and my clients loved it! Would purchase again. My only issue was the color was a bit off - but that is to be expected when computer review.

Police work with Hamp residents
1:00pm Saturday 8th March 2014 in News By Kirsty James
POLICE have been working with residents in Hamp this week.
PCSO Sarah England, who covers the Hamp area, has been leading a scheme to encourage residents to come forward and report issues to the police.
Yarlington Housing Group visited Manley Gardens with the community beat team offering help and advice with their housing officer to the residents there.
Hamp Children's Centre has also been working with the beat team with their community bus, engaging with people on the estate and at Lakeside Caravan Park.
PCSO England added: "It acts as a great link to the community and we have also been fortunate to be able to use a translator to help reach out and communicate with some ethnic families that now live on the estate.
"I hope families now feel less isolated and encouraged to engage with police and children are more aware of how they can get involved in local activities."

1. Curb Appeal
This is the first impression your home makes on any visitor. In the real estate industry it's referred to as "curb appeal" because many prospective buyers won't even get out of the car to look inside if they don't like your home from the curb. But, your home can have the same effect on your visitors, as well. Take a good hard look from your curb: Does your home feel welcoming? Is it a place that makes you want to come inside?
Here are a few other questions to consider:
2. Kitchen
A kitchen is generally the first thing prospective homeowners look at and for good reason: Today's kitchen is the life of the home, often serving as a dining area, office, entertaining and gathering place. With so many important functions, the kitchen should be the most welcoming room in the house.
Here are a few factors to consider:
Here are a few factors to consider:
If you can only do one thing...Update your kitchen cabinets.
The cabinetry generally sets the tone for the kitchen, so with this one project you can instantly revitalize the room. If you can't afford to replace all of the cabinets, consider a more affordable option: Stain or paint them a new color or reface them with new cabinet doors. Don't forget to add new hardware to complete the look.
3. Bathrooms
Bathrooms are the smallest space in your home, yet they usually get the most visitors. It only makes sense to ensure that this space, repeatedly by both residents and guests, is a welcoming environment. Fortunately, due to its small space, the bathroom is probably the easiest room in your house to update.
Some other factors to consider when examining your bathroom:

SOHH Whatcha Think: Young Jeezy's Artist Snuffed In Philly, Nicki Minaj's Smoking Hot X-Mas Outfit, Trinidad James Jacked Martin Lawrence?
Wednesday, Dec 26, 2012 11:47AM
Wishful Wednesday. It's all about wishing for the best today as we start off with one of Young Jeezy's boys getting punked, jumped and snuffed in Philadelphia. Ouch? Too bad they couldn't think of more peaceful things to do for the holidays, like gawk at Nicki Minaj's Christmas attire in New York City. It was just a Turnpike ride up north. And 'tis the season to be giving, but did Trinidad James jack Martin Lawrence to create his rap persona? All this coming up in SOHH Whatcha Think.
[Editor's Note: The views expressed in this column do not necessarily reflect those of SOHH]
1. Can't We All Just Get Along?
Isn't there too much violence going down in hip-hop? It's not enough that we have horrific shootings like in Connecticut and in Florida, but now knuckling up outside of clubs? It's way too cold to throw punches this time of the year, but apparently that message did not get across to Young Jeezy associate Tone Trump and some of Meek Mill's guys. Bossip has more:
Another Rapper Jumped On Video: Jeezy Artist-Philly Rapper Tone Trump Gets Jumped By Meek Mills Artist-Philly Goons Over Twitter Beef! Of course Louie V is pushing his own music heavy after the beating... and on twitter has promised a part 2 of the video. Tone Trump said the usual on his twitter... "N__gas be hatin!" PS: If you look at the video closely... you will see Tone pull out some kind of hammer or something. What was that? (Bossip)
Is this just a case of Corporate Thugs Entertainment and Maybach Music Group really beefing or is this something we should just ignore? Even though violence is never a key to resolving issues, maybe a good whooping every once in a while keeps things entertaining. At least no weapons appeared to be used. Question is, why are people more insistent on recording violence rather than doing something to stop it? #SOHHWhatchaThink?
2. Hot Tamale
It might have been a cold Christmas for most of us, but Nicki Minaj got things sizzling for her Hot 97 X-Mas concert last night in New York City. It's never been doubted that she's much more than your average female emcee, look-wise and that was obvious at her Webster Hall show. Huffington Post has the proof:
Nothing says festive holiday attire like a studded, plunging, spandex catsuit. When Nicki Minaj stepped out to host a Christmas Extravaganza event at Webster Hall in New York City on Dec. 25, her getup was definitely more naughty than nice. (Hey, at least the red-trimmed shoulder panels and cheerfully hued sunglasses added a seasonally appropriate touch.) Fans of the "Starships" singer will be happy to know that the Season 12 premiere of "American Idol," which sees Minaj joining fellow diva Mariah Carey at the judges' table, is now just three weeks away. (Huffington Post)
Check please? With "American Idol" on deck, big endorsement deals with Pepsi popping, album-selling ability and earning the title of one of the most respected and envied women in the rap biz, Nicki has the world in her palms. #SOHHWhatchaThink?
3. Gimmie The Loot
Is Trinidad James the real deal? There's buzz behind him ever since "All Gold Everything" dropped and he landed a big record deal at Def Jam, but there's always been something a bit off. His appearance, while stunning at first glance, resembles somebody but most of us couldn't put our fingers on it until now. All Hip Hop Rumors has the inside:
LOL! You probably saw this a couple days ago, but I missed it shopping for my dog. Well, it looks like Trinidad James may have a lawsuit on his hand from the co-creator of "Martin." "Nobody's that unattractive in real life. Gold chains, gold rings, and rotten teeth, that's Jerome!! ...Martin created that," said 'Martin' Creator Gerald Levin. Levin believes - as I did - Trinidad James is some parody, not a real rapper. This means he can be sued because he looks too much like the parody on "Martin." He's gonna sue for $5 million dollars if Trini James doesn't chill! (All Hip Hop Rumors)
Is there really any argument? Looks like there could be some real legitimate issues at hand. Trinidad does strike an amazingly similar resemblance to Martin's character "Jerome." Could there be some copyright infringement case looming over Def Jam's head? We all remember how well Freeway Ricky Ross made out trying to sue Rick Ross on similar charges. Any chance this could hold up in court? #SOHHWhatchaThink?
That about wraps it up for today. This is SOHH On The Spot giving you the morning scoop from your favorite gossip sites.

Rap stars Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, Drake and more will all battle it out for categories like "Best Hip Hop Video" at MTV's annual Video Music Awards next month.
While there are plenty of hip-hop nods, "Suit & Tie" hitmaker Justin Timberlake and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis lead the annual ceremony with six nods.
The 2013 MTV Video Music Award nominations are finally here! The network took to social media early this morning to announce the nods on their Vine and Instagram accounts. Justin Timberlake and duo Macklemore and Ryan Lewis lead this year's nomination list with six each! Bruno Mars is up for four moon men. Miley Cyrus, Pink, Robin Thicke, and 30 Seconds to Mars are all up for three. The award show will take place on Sunday (August 25) at Brooklyn's Barclay's Center, which will air live from MTV. Be sure to tune in! (Just Jared)
R&B singer Robin Thicke also managed to snag a handful of nods.
Robin Thicke (Blurred Lines, featuring T.I. and Pharrell), who received three nominations -- the same number as Pink, Miley Cyrus and 30 Seconds to Mars -- and Taylor Swift (I Knew You Were In Trouble) round out the field. Swift was tapped twice, as were Drake, fun., Calvin Harris, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and first-time nominees Kendrick Lamar and Lana Del Rey. Contenders for best video with a social message, a category introduced in 2011, include Kelly Clarkson's People Like Us, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's Same Love, Snoop Lion's No Guns Allowed, Miguel's Candles in the Sun and Beyoncé's I Was Here.

Last year's event featured a variety of music stars gracing the stage and going home with trophies.
Chris Brown pulled off something of an upset in the best male video category. Rihanna's former boyfriend won for his self-directed video "Turn Up The Music." Drake won best hip-hop video for "HYFR," which featured Lil Wayne. Nicki Minaj, dressed in a skintight full-body outfit, won best female video for "Starships." Coldplay took best rock video for "Paradise." And Calvin Harris - the show's house DJ who's featured on "We Found Love"_ won the first best electronic dance music award for "Feel So Close." Beyonce, Perry, Skrillex and Demi Lovato won awards not televised on the show. (Huffington Post)

Chicago Tribune: Shevchenko to consider Fire
Can't say I know too much about the guy, but any starter for an European national team must be good. I almost feel that we are good on strikers with Dom and Rolfe. This could mean seeing Rolfe playing more attacking midfield and Alex taking Grazzini's place.

Even though talks to bring UFC 81 to network television didn't prove to be fruitful, a landmark TV deal for the mixed martial arts industry could be on the horizon, according to Gary Herman of 15rounds.com:
The long awaited debut for the Ultimate Fighting Championship on a major network may not be very far off. Ongoing conversations are heating up. UFC President Dana White expects major progress in the next few days.
"I am going out of town tomorrow for a week. Hopefully, I'll come back with good news," White said.
Recent rumors have suggested that the UFC's planned June event in the UK could be earmarked for CBS.

i hope it happens but when the first huge cut from a elbow and that blood is all over the mat……that's my only concern with the UFC on a major network….
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
This kind of talk doesn't necessarily mean very much in terms of its correlation with reality. Remember, the UFC said in April 2006 that it would be on HBO "very soon," and then guaranteed in mid-2007 that it would be on HBO "by the end of this year." Then last month in an SI.com interview, they "guaranteed" that they would have a network TV deal signed "soon."
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
Ivan hits on the head. Unless they start the UFC Network, I don't see a network deal anytime soon.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
I agree with paddiosf. What is going to happen if there is a bloodbath fight and someone like Babalu doesn't let go of a submission?

Thornton Tomasetti has been named the structural engineer of record for the $105 million redevelopment of Texas Christian University historic Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas, home of TCU's Horned Frogs football team. Thornton Tomasetti is partnering with the Dallas-based architectural firm HKS Inc., with which it has previously collaborated on more than eight sports facilities. The TCU project will begin immediately after the Horned Frogs' final 2010 home game.
Improvements include a newly raised upper seating bowl at the stadium's west and north ends for enhanced field views; new press box, support spaces, vertical circulation elements, plazas, landscaping, ornamental fencing and stadium facade; new elevators for better stadium access and crowd flow; and the addition of 18 new suites, club seating, and a founder's club lounge.
The stadium's design references, including suites, lounges, graphics and navigational signage, will reflect the 1930s style of Southwestern art deco prevalent throughout Fort Worth and the surrounding area. HKS has integrated TCU's colors into the design to create a pleasing and comfortable look and feel for the new and improved stadium.

(WBEN) School transportation officials are still trying to pin down how a 5-year-old student was dropped off by a school bus driver yesterday in Cheektowaga when the youngster was supposed to have been dropped off in the Village of Blasdell.
So far, officials have theorized that the bus driver may have been confused because two young passengers aboard the bus had the same first names.
The bus driver is with the West Seneca school district and was driving the boy home from a Buffalo charter achool

Arnold Schwarzenegger voicing Darth Vader makes 'Star Wars' way better
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh3Wveg4DMk&w=640&h=360]What would Star Wars episodes 4-6 look like if clips from other Arnold Schwarzenegger movies had been the voice of Darth Vader? There's an edge that James Earl Jones simply isn't capable of.
It makes me sad that it took this Internet mashup to be the first time someone called Luke Skywalker a pussy. That was long overdue. (via Filmdrunk)

Drug: haloperidol plus lorazepam IM
5 mg haloperidol plus 2 mg lorazepam, IM
Other Name: haldol and ativan
Detailed Description:
To date, there have been no published reports of clinical studies of IM olanzapine versus IM haloperidol plus lorazepam in patients with schizophrenia. The latter combination is used quite often as a traditional way to treat agitated schizophrenia patients.
Study Design:
This is a randomized, single-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group study, consisting of screening and treatment phase. Patients completing the screening phase would be randomized to receive either 10mg olanzapine IM or 5 mg haloperidol plus 2 mg lorazepam IM . The ratio of randomization was 1:1. Treatment assignments are based on a computer-generated randomization code supplied by central unit with block designs. Patients can receive a maximum of 3 injections within the first 24-hour period. Second and third injections are used under the clinical judgment of investigators. The second injection is allowed after 2-hour has elapsed since first injection. The third injection is allowed after 4-hour have passed since the second injection. Prohibited medications include antiarrythmics, antipsychotics, antidepressants, anticonvulsants, antiemetics, and other psychotropic drugs.
Efficacy Assessments:
Patients are assessed by the study investigators at the screening visit and at 15, 30, 60, 120 minutes after first injection. The primary efficacy measure is PANSS-EC, which includes the items tension, uncooperativeness, hostility, poor impulse control, excitement and is derived from the PANSS by its originators using a principal-components factor analysis. Agitation is further assessed by the Agitation-Calmness Evaluation Scale (ACES) (Copyright 1998, Eli Lilly and Company; all rights reserved). Clinical Global Impression-Severity(CGI-S)scale37 is used to assess general psychiatric condition. For each patient, the same rater conducted the assessment throughout the study.
Safety assessments:
During the 24-hour treatment period, safety is assessed by clinical examination and laboratory investigations, recording spontaneously reported adverse events, completing the Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS3) and Barnes Akathisia Scales (BAS).
Statistical Procedures:
The efficacy analyses are based on intent-to treat (ITT) population defined as consisting of all randomized subjects. The last observation carried forward (LOCF) dataset is used to estimate the missing data. The primary treatment comparisons are 2-hour PANSS-EC scores after first injection. Continuous efficacy data (eg, change from baseline) are evaluated by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), adjusting for baseline values and the fixed factors treatment, center, and treatment-by-center interaction. The treatment-by-center interaction was tested at the 0.10 significant levels and dropped from the model if it was not statistically significant. The 95% confidence interval is used to provide the test of hypothesis of efficacy of olanzapine is superior to haloperidol plus lorazepam. Categorical efficacy data are analysed using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test with center control. For primary efficacy analyses, the hypothesis was one-sided and evaluated at the 0.025 significant levels. For other analyses, the test was two-sided and evaluated at the 0.05 significant levels.
Response is defined a priori as a 40% reduction or more in PANSS-EC scores. Response rate is also analysed using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test with center control, and the Breslow-Day test to investigate the homogeneity of odds ratio across sites.

Sox owner John Henry buys Boston Globe for $70 million
Friday, August 2, 2013 4:42 PM EDT
Saturday, August 3, 2013 10:33 AM EDT
BOSTON (AP) - Businessman John Henry, the principal owner of the Boston Red Sox, has entered into an agreement to buy The Boston Globe for $70 million, a massive drop from its record $1.1 billion price two decades ago.
The impending purchase from The New York Times Co. marks Henry's "first foray into the financially unsettled world of the news media," the Globe said Saturday. The deal will give Henry the 141-year-old newspaper, its websites and affiliated companies, it said.
The Times announced in February it was putting the Globe and related assets up for sale four years after calling off a previous attempt to sell it. The company's CEO said at the time selling the Globe would help the company focus attention on The New York Times brand.
Times spokeswoman Eileen Murphy confirmed the planned sale of the Globe and other media properties to Henry. The Times said the all-cash sale, expected to close in 30 to 60 days, includes BostonGlobe.com, Boston.com, The Worcester Telegram & Gazette, Telegram.com, the direct mail marketing company Globe Direct and the company's 49 percent interest in Metro Boston, a free daily newspaper for commuters.
Henry, in a statement published by the Globe, cited the "essential role that its journalists and employees play in Boston, throughout New England, and beyond."
"The Boston Globe's award-winning journalism as well as its rich history and tradition of excellence have established it as one of the most well respected media companies in the country," Henry said.
Henry, who also owns the English Premier League soccer club Liverpool F.C., said he would reveal details about his plans for the Globe in the next few days.
Globe editor Brian McGrory said the newspaper's Red Sox coverage and its editorial decisions won't be affected by the sale.
"We have no plans whatsoever to change our Red Sox coverage specifically, or our sports coverage in general, nor will we be asked," McGrory told the newspaper. "The Globe's sports reporting and commentary is the gold standard in the industry."
The Times bought the Globe from the family of former Globe executive Stephen Taylor in 1993 for what it said was the highest price paid for an American newspaper. The price Henry is paying is less than 7 percent of the 1993 price.
The Globe and other newspapers have faced difficulties in recent years as readers have fled to the Internet and advertisers have cut spending on newspapers and moved more ads online. Still, the Globe is a journalistic institution in New England and was lauded for its coverage of the deadly Boston Marathon bombings in April.
A 2009 round of cost-cutting, involving pay cuts, helped put the Globe on better financial footing and prompted the Times to call off a planned sale. In late 2011, the Globe started charging for access to its online version at BostonGlobe.com, which helped to boost circulation revenues.
The Times company doesn't separate Globe revenue from The New York Times revenue in its financial statements. But the Globe had an average weekday circulation of 230,351 in the six months through September, according to the Alliance for Audited Media. The newspaper's increase in digital subscriptions more than offset declines in print. But the total is still down significantly from the nearly 413,000 it boasted in September 2002.
The Globe isn't the only newspaper to see a huge drop in its price at sale time.
In April 2012, Philadelphia's two largest newspapers sold for $55 million, a fraction of the $515 million paid by a group of investors in 2006. The buyers of the Philadelphia Inquirer and Philadelphia Daily News included influential New Jersey Democrat George Norcross III, former New Jersey Nets owner Lewis Katz and cable TV mogul H.F. "Gerry" Lenfest.

Snow Country, MI
Snowmobile Central
Snowmobiling, copyright
Cadillac Area Visitors Bureau
Surrounded by the Manistee National Forest, the reborn lumber town of Cadillac reigns as the Lower Peninsula's snowmobiling capital. More than 200 miles of routes fan out from this town on the shores of two inland lakes.
Zip over the new White Pine Trail, a converted railbed that stretches almost all the way to Grand Rapids. Or take another popular route, the Boon Trail, through the pines to the Boon General store, a century-old wayside stop. The owners stoke a roaring bonfire, and even lend long forks for roasting hot dogs. Pick up detailed trail maps at the Cadillac Area Visitors Bureau.
You'll need a home base for trailblazing. McGuire's Resort, a posh retreat on 300 acres just south of town, entertains guests with a 10-kilometer Nordic trail system, themed weekend packages, and moonlit rides in horse-drawn sleighs. Budget-minded vacationers can opt for the Cadillac Sands Resort, with motel-style rooms on the lake and on-site snowmobile rentals.
The North American Snowmobile Festival brings thousands of sledders and their machines to town every winter. Join cheering spectators, or race along with the speedsters through snowy woods and across the sparkling frozen lake. You'll see displays of the latest gear and haggle for equipment bargains at the "swap meet."

The DUI trial for former Albemarle Democratic Party Vice Chair Cynthia Neff will have to wait. Neff appeared in Albemarle Circuit Court Tuesday for a scheduled hearing.
She was arrested and charged with driving under the influence in October. Albemarle police say an officer pulled her over after he observed her driving erratically along Route 29. They say she failed the field sobriety tests and admitted she had a few glasses of wine at an art fundraiser that evening.
The court continued the bench trial, but did confirm four witnesses Tuesday afternoon.
Neff will be back in court on July 30.

Right now, the MSM is just loving the whole "gutty little Bruins upseting big, bad, heavily favored SEC powerhouse Tennessee to start the Rick Neuheisel returning home era" story. WWL, Fox Sports, SI, etc. are all running some variation of this story (which you can check out here, here, here, here, here, here, and here)
Got to love the national exposure. Hopefully it translates into better recruiting returns, which in turn, hopefully leads to this program returning to its rightful place of national prominence.
But, what I find particularly amusing isn't the MSM exposure and hype after our big win over the Vols. What I find really amusing is that so many of the haters out there can't seem to stop talking about UCLA and our Bruins. Now, I'll admit I was a bit curious to see what our fellow SBN blogs were saying in the wake of the MSM love-fest for our upset win. I started over at Rocky Top Talk (by the way, Vols fans, you have been a class act in defeat, which, unfortunately UCLA fans don't get to see very often, having to play certain teams with a**hole fanbases) to see what they saw from their side (I like to get a balanced look at a game when possible). I eventually made by way to some of the haters' blogs, and boy, was I bit shocked by what I found.
The folks over at California Golden Blogs just can't get enough of UCLA. And, well, many of them are so taken with our good looks, beautiful blue jerseys, etc. that they couldn't wait for us to upset the Vols: they had to talk about us before the game.
In sum, you can catch our cocky (yet secretly envious) 'big brothers' discussing UCLA, the Bruins, or our program here, here, here, and here. Sure, they take their shots at Neuheisel or our Bruins, but it makes one wonder, why so much talk about a team they dismiss out of hand, hmm? Perhaps a few Bears, while loathe to admit it, secretly house a secret crush on UCLA.
No worries CGB guys. I don't blame you. After all, you guys have to look at this:
Image Credit: KTVU
Meanwhile, those of us who are fortunate enough to be Bruins, get to see this on a regular basis:
Image Credit: UCLA Dance Team
The folks over at Conquest Chronicles, on the other hand, don't share the Bears' envy of UCLA. Which isn't too much of a surprise, because, while I hate to admit it, the trOJans actually win once and a while. But, while they don't share the Bears' figurative penis envy of the Bruins, they, like the folks in the People's Republic of Berkeley, can't help but talk about the Bruins, as in here, here, and here.
Not that I mind the chatter. We hear a lot of snide jibes about the recent LA Times ad where a picture of Neuheisel bodly declares the football monopoly in LA is over. Yet, despite U$C jumping Georgia in the polls to take the top spot, everyone can't stop talking about the "gutty little Bruins."
Monopolies aren't just measured in wins and losses, folks, and CRN is already showing how these Bruins are going to start loosening the absolute stranglehold U$C had on LA the last few years.
Love the coverage from all corners of the interwebs, even from those out there who proclaim to not have any love for the greatest university in the world.

The 2013-14 Mid-American Conference should have several strong women's basketball teams and a very competitive season. The league's schedule is full of appetizing games against powers from top conferences and mid-majors alike, as well as a great slate of conference battles that ought to keep the championship race interesting down to the final day.
Now, the header for this post is TOP 25 GAMES, but we're going to cheat. See, there are so many good tilts that it actually seems better to just do the 25 best dates. You'll see why. Note: these are listed in chronological order and are not ranked.
1. November 9th -- Drexel at Toledo
The heat gets turned up right away in this battle of mid-major elites. This game features the winners of two of the last three WNIT postseason tournaments. Toledo won in 2011, and the Dragons matched the feat last March.
2. November 15th -- Akron at Dayton
If Akron wants national respect, then this would be a good place to start. The Flyers had a perfect regular season in the Atlantic Ten during the 2012-13 season and were a #7 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
3. November 17th -- Purdue at Toledo
The Rockets have a very tough non-conference schedule, but it helps when you get to host games like this. It's not often that MAC schools can host a team from a power conference, especially one that was a #4 seed in last season's NCAA Tournament. Purdue plays other MAC teams this season, but the Boilermakers get to host those games.
4. November 22nd -- Bowling Green vs Marist (Columbus, OH -- Basketball Hall of Fame Classic)
The Red Foxes are one of the best programs in the country, period. Forget the mid-major distinction; they've won games at an incredible pace over the last decade. At this point, Marist has been to eight consecutive NCAA Tournaments. This should be a great game in one of the better early-season tournaments.
5. November 28th-30th -- Central Michigan vs Kansas / Duke / Xavier (Virgin Islands -- Paradise Jam)
How are you spending your Thanksgiving weekend? Central Michigan gets to enjoy the holiday in the Caribbean playing against some of the best basketball talent in the country. Their 3-games-in-3-days gauntlet begins on Turkey Day with Kansas. After they digest that matchup, they tangle with Duke on Friday before capping the tournament against Xavier. Just how good is CMU? We'll find out.
6. December 1st -- Florida State at Miami
As noted above, it's not often that a mid-major gets to host a game like this, so Miami needs to take advantage of having FSU in Oxford. The Seminoles won 23 games last season.
7. December 5th and December 30th -- Dayton at Central Michigan (12/5) and Central Michigan at Dayton (12/30)
This is a rare instance of a home-and-home non-conference series in the same season. The Chippewas will have two more chances to prove themselves. And just how ambitious is their non-conference slate?
8. December 17th -- Louisville at Ball State
Louisville played in the national championship game against Connecticut last spring. That's all that really needs to be said here.
9. December 22nd -- Bowling Green at Purdue, Central Michigan at Notre Dame, Dayton at Toledo
This is definitely the best day of non-conference action for the MAC in the 2013-2014 season. Consider it an early Christmas present. We've already been over Purdue and Dayton, so how about Notre Dame? The Fighting Irish only went 35-2 last season. Their only losses were to Baylor and then to eventual-national-champ Connecticut in the Final Four. Again, how ambitious is CMU's schedule?
10. January 4th -- Ball State at Akron, Buffalo at Bowling Green, Toledo at Central Michigan
The league office certainly isn't messing around, as they get the conference schedule off to a rousing start. The UT/CMU game will go a long way towards determining who wins the West (and who gets a top seed in the MAC Tournament). Ball State/Akron is a key inter-divisional matchup, and the BGSU/Buffalo tilt could also be very important later for tournament seeding purposes.
11. January 9th -- Central Michigan at Akron
Just five days after hosting one very difficult inter-divisional game, Akron has to host another, this time against the MAC's preseason favorite Central Michigan. This could ultimately be a preview of the MAC Tournament championship game.
12. January 12th -- Akron at Bowling Green, Central Michigan at Buffalo, Miami at Toledo
Akron's early-season gauntlet continues against perennial MAC power Bowling Green, while Central Michigan and Toledo face two problematic games that they'll need to win in order to maximize their place at the end of the season.
13. January 15th -- Akron at Miami, Bowling Green at Ball State, Toledo at Buffalo
Miami will get a shot at Akron in Oxford, and this could be a golden opportunity for the Redhawks to get a big win early in the conference season. Akron may be worn down after those first three league games. The other two continue the early-season trend of great matchups between the East and West; we'll know quickly which division is better.
14. January 18th and February 19th -- Bowling Green at Central Michigan, CMU at BGSU
The MAC is playing 18 conference games this year, rather than the 16 played in years past. This means that teams will have to play two extra games against the other division. In BGSU and CMU's case, they have the disadvantage of having to play each other twice. But for the fans? These should be two very good games.
15. January 23rd -- Ball State at Toledo
These two will probably be trying to play catch-up with Central Michigan, so a win in this game would be very important. It could also mean the difference between a tournament bye or a first-round game.
16. January 30th -- Akron at Toledo
For both of these teams, the early portion of the MAC schedule is not kind. As with Akron's battle against CMU, this could also be a preview of the MAC championship game.
17. February 2nd -- Bowling Green at Toledo
You really thought we'd leave this game off the list? The games between these two teams over the last couple of seasons have been close and intense. We would expect no different this year.
18. February 6th -- Central Michigan at Ball State, Toledo at Miami
This could be an important day for the teams in the West. The game between the Cardinals and Chippewas will help determine the division champ, while Toledo has to play a tough road game in Oxford.
19. February 9th -- Miami at Bowling Green
Akron is the favorite to win the MAC East, so the loser of this contest will have more work to do elsewhere to keep up with the Zips.
20. February 15th -- Akron at Ball State, Miami at Central Michigan
These are the last inter-divisional games on our list, as the conference schedule is heavy on games within the division at the end of the season. Both matches will be important for seeding purposes.
21. February 26th -- Miami at Akron
One of the key divisional games down the stretch. Miami will probably need an upset here.
22. February 27th -- Ball State at Central Michigan
See above, but substitute Ball State for Miami.
23. March 2nd -- Central Michigan at Toledo
The Rockets and Chippewas play in Mount Pleasant on the opening day of the MAC schedule and then have to wait nearly the entire conference season for the rematch. That should make the stakes for the return game very high.
24. March 5th -- Akron at Buffalo, Bowling Green at Miami
The final week of the season begins with two important games in the East. Jockeying for tournament seeding will be in full effect here.
25. March 8th -- Bowling Green at Akron, Toledo at Ball State
Final day of the regular season -- will division titles or top tournament seeds be on the line?
So, there it is -- 25 dates to remember. It should be one great season of #MACtion from start to finish.

Parents in the Mexican state of Sonora will no longer be allowed to name their children "Facebook," ''Rambo" or 59 other now banned given names.
The names have been found at least once in state registries. And the list could grow because officials are still checking the state's 132 newborn registries, Sonora state Civil Registry director Cristina Ramirez said Tuesday.
The law banning a list of 61 odd or offensive names took effect Monday. It seeks to protect children from being bullied, Ramirez said.
"The law is very clear because it prohibits giving children names that are derogatory or that don't have any meaning and that can lead to bullying," she said.
Ramirez said that in the town of Navojoa a boy was recently named "Juan Calzon," or "Juan Panties," and a girl was named "Lady Di."
Other odd names include a girl called "Marciana," or "Martian," and a boy called "Circuncision," or "Circumcision."
Sonora is across the border from the U.S. state of Arizona.

Rap Genius Lines of the Week 2013: Lyrics From Raekwon, AZ, Kool Keith & More
Happy New Year to all of our loyal LOTW readers. The end of 2012 and the first few days of 2013 gave rap fans music for a variety of moods. There was something in the air (perhaps it was all the Champagne) that made punchlines sharper, jokes more absurd, disses more pointed, and serious moments more thoughtful. Let's hope that trend continues after the hangovers have worn off. Below, the Lines of the Week.
5. "Pink and black Glock, like 'What you think, though?'/ Butt to your head, Ochocinco" — Jane Doe, "Puffy Dance" lyrics
Most rap fans were introduced to Jane Doe with her astounding performance on Black Star's "Twice Inna Lifetime" back in 1998. We haven't heard that much from her since, but she makes up for it with her guest spot on this song by Ransom. She manages to breathe some life into the played out "hashtag rap" format with this pun on NFL star Chad Ochocinco's recent domestic violence arrest.
4. "Stay set, sequel in the making/ Three sixty my beliefs in the Nation/D's frisk me, they peep reparations/ With a real n—- aura, though, I speak education" — AZ, "Genesis" lyrics
We at RG have been listening to a ton of AZ lately, so this freestyle was a real treat. Over the beat from the Illmatic intro, Anthony Cruz rips into a polysyllabic stream that, on second listening, reveals tons about his outlook. The shout-out to the Nation of Gods and Earths, the relationship between police repression and black political organization, the motivation to teach through art — so much knowledge is dropped in these few bars that it's head-spinning.
3. "The lifestyle is real, it can switch in a flash, kid/ From living right to living, then gone in a splash, kid" — Raekwon, "Neither One Of Us" lyrics
Rae is the master of sophisticated, ever-changing slang. But sometimes, the most direct statements are also the most affecting. That is certainly the case with this bleak reminder of the ever-present threat of death that resides in the street life he chronicles so well.
2. "The Army don't want you in here with dreadlocks/ The Marines say they can use a mascot/ Your girl ass so small, she could sit in the dial of my watch" — Kool Keith "Get It While You Can" lyrics
This is one of the tamer lines on Keith's new mixtape, Total Orgasm 2. Still, even on this (relatively) safe-for-work sample, his irrepressible humor and bizarre sensibility come through loud and clear.
1. "All my n—-s straight greasy/ Balling out like I ate Wheaties/ I can't give your state props 'cause they put on this fake Peedi" — Chubby Jag, "Worst Nightmare (Meek Mill Diss)" lyrics
The Meek Mill/Cassidy battle has thus far been pretty tame. A few good shots by Cass, an overheated and not-well-received return by Meek. Thus, it was a bit of a surprise when Cassidy's Larsiny Family partner Chubby Jag to have the best volley of the whole contest thus far. This comparison of Meek to State Property member Peedi Crakk, a fellow Philly rapper whose career pre-dates the MMG lieutenant and whose voice and style are, in fact, pretty similar, is pretty vicious.

Hey guys,
I have an assembly that i want to insert in another assembly. When i do insert it i try to make it "Adaptive" but the option is graded out/not available. How can i make it Adaptive?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Adaptive requires geometry from other items to be projected and referenced by items within the sub assembly. Possibly you wish for a sub assembly such as a hinge to move/articulate within the main assembly, look at "Flexible".
RMB on the sub assembly within the main assembly and select "Flexible" from the drop-down menu.
BINGO! yup thats what i wanted.. I want a hinge and a Lift support (two different assemblies with their own constrains) to work together. thanks

Welcome, Coach Jones!
As a life-long Vols fan born and raised in the state of Tennessee, I sincerely hope that our university, state, and fanbase collectively do everything possible to ensure that Coach Jones wins as many games as is humanly possible.Those of us older than ten years of age grew up winning games...lots and lots of games. We like winning games. When we won those games, we were happy, happy, happy. We bought orange clothing and traveled to Knoxville and felt relatively confident that we would drive home with a big fat smile on the face. That smile remained on the face all week.
That was an enjoyable feeling, and a feeling I have not felt in a few years. In fact, in this troubled economy, I have not really wanted to spend my money on the gasoline required to drive home with a frown. Why the frown? Losing football games. Why do we lose those games? There are many possible explanations. Allow me to propose one:
We simply cannot compete in the modern SEC.
Tennessee has a long history of competing in the SEC...in the 20th Century. In the 20th Century, Nick Saban was in the Big 10, Les Miles was in the Big 12, Mark Richt was an assistant at Florida State, and nobody had ever heard of James Franklin. Steve Spurrier was our only problem. Now, he is two problems. He made Florida the national power it is today, and he has completely turned around a South Carolina program we used to dominate.
I do not mean to suggest that the coach in place is the only factor. It is well documented that Tennessee won the national championship primarily with players from OTHER Southeastern states. In the modern SEC, the best players in those states stay home (or go to Alabama). There are only a few SEC players in Tennessee high schools, and Vanderbilt is getting far more than they used to get.
How do we resolve this? Allow me one modest proposal: In this time of conference realignment, Tennessee should move to the ACC.
Some of you will be offended by this proposal. That's okay. The offended will likely be those individuals with:
1. Highly competitive natures
2. A love of the SEC
3. A sense of pride in the SEC
or 4. A genuine belief that we can return to the national title game if we just hire the right coach
I do not possess any of those things. In fact, I hate the 21st Century SEC because my team cannot compete in it. Furthermore, why brag about being in a conference in which you can only win one conference game? I quote Vince Lombardi: "Winning isn't everything...It's the only thing." I like winning. Winning is fun.
Here are my reasons for an ACC move:
1. We could compete for the national championship.
When the new playoff system comes in, the selection committee will likely choose three conference champions and one "at-large" team (according to ESPN). The second best SEC team will likely get the at-large spot. How likely is it that we are one of the top two SEC teams? Not likely at all, for reasons I have already addressed.
If we win the ACC, which is possible considering a .500 Georgia Tech team made it to the Championship Game, we would have to have a better record than any two conference champions from the Big 10, Big 12, or Pac 12. That is completely possible, considering we could compete in the ACC. Would we get killed? Maybe, maybe not. You can talk all month about Notre Dame's strength of schedule, but at least those jokers are IN the national game.
We cannot compete for the national playoffs in the SEC. We will lose too many games to be considered.
2. It would mean less travel for our Olympic sports.
Is Syracuse a long way from Knoxville? Yes, but so is College Station, Texas. Think about how often UT would be competing against the likes of NC State, Duke, North Carolina, and Wake Forest. Those are all in North Carolina, which is EXTREMELY close to Knoxville, relatively speaking. Plus, the ACC would be a great conference for basketball and soccer (two sports in which our women particularly excel).
3. I like winning.
When we beat NC State, I was happy. Why? Winning makes me happy. I think we could win more frequently in the ACC than we could in the SEC. I am tired of finishing 10th nationally in recruiting but 7th in our own conference. I would rather finish with a 17th-24th ranked recruiting class that is Top 3 in our conference. Furthermore, I would rather win actual football games. I would venture a guess that we could win consistently in the ACC and compete in bowl games on a yearly basis. I like going to bowl games, though I am starting to forget what they feel like.
4. Winning football is better for business.
Winning football means more sweatshirts sold, more tickets bought, more willingness to spend on gas, and more smiles on returns home. Joel would not have to worry about diversifying business. Winning means orange, orange everywhere. I never bought one single piece of Tennessee clothing because we are in the SEC. I bought orange clothing because we were winning.
4. We are who we are.
Let's face it. We are not Alabama, LSU, or Florida. We are North Carolina. We are Clemson and Virginia Tech (maybe). Even if other teams leave the ACC (one or more would be happy to take our place) for bigger conferences, I still think the ACC is the best conference for us. Again, to reference #3, I like winning.
I think this 4th one will be the toughest to swallow. The cold reality is this: It's not 1998 anymore.
But, hey, this is just one modest proposal for returning to winning football. If anyone else has a better proposal, I would love to hear it.
And don't say "hire a bigger name." We tried that. Charlie Strong would rather be in the ACC...and so would I.
