Re: Mara Region [Fakedex and other stuff]
I'm going to critique some of your designs, and also draw attention to something I noticed while browsing your fakedex; it seems like you have gotten a lot of "inspiration" from another project,
Pokemon Acanthite
. In particular, the Pokemon that they have crafted appear to have some congruities with yours. Their pokedex can be viewed
. If somebody else has already posted about this, or you are in some way affiliated with them, or I've just overlooked something (because I only read the first few pages), then I apologize.
I will say that I do like the grass and fire starter lines (especially the grass types, although they are a lot like the new grass/goat Pokemon in the 6'th generation, but you probably made yours before Gogoat and whatever it was were public, so I'll let you off on that count), and the names that you have picked out for many of these are pretty clever, so I'll praise you for that. However, the water starters are a bit suspect. Take a look at the water starter from Acanthite, No. 500 in their pokedex. The name and concept are both pretty similar from what I can see.
The Flying/Ghost types don't sit well with me. They're dark colored birds with a skull and crossbones on their chest. If anything, they should be Flying/Dark, since they don't seem to bear any features suggestive of a ghost-type. Maybe you thought the color scheme would be enough to justify that typing, but if we were to go by that logic, Corphish should be a Fire-type, and Lugia would be a Water-type.
Also, your new type, the "cyber" type, is also pretty similar to the "Virus" type that Acanthite uses. Obviously both are man-made types, and are based on computers and such things.
The Glimmy line also seems to be adapted from the Halove line of Acanthite's.
Wallapby also draws my concern. It is a fighting type based on a kangaroo (which, granted, is a concept that I've seen in several Fakemon, not just those made by Acanthite), and the name is almost identical to Wallopy, the first in its evolution line (also a fighting-type kangaroo).
Some of these Pokemon, on the other hand, feel very uninspired, the most prominent to me being the Leo/Leona line. To be frank, they don't appear to be anything more than a cartoon lion and lioness. Dodo, Lemoor, and Gazall, among others, are also big offenders for having a plain, one-dimensional design.
I will praise you for the ideas behind the Fossil Pokemon. It's a really cool idea to use some recently extinct species, and is definitely a refreshing shift from the dinosaur/cambrian/devonian era themes we've seen, although, again, the concepts could have been executed better.
The Ticktock line is definitely not among my favorites, either. Tick is an alright, even good concept, but the other two don't seem be anything special; they just have clocks stamped on their bodies. Hell, if you took away the colors and the clock, you would probably never guess that those Pokemon were even related. This line was, in my opinion, a waste of potential. Something like a big, grandfather clock Pokemon would have been a great continuation of the line.
There are some other interesting lines, like Shoppard, but their evolutions bring very minute changes, and it arguably would have been better off as a stand-alone. The Deevly, Glimmy, and Stalactyke lines also stand out to me for the same reasons. I also dislike the Glimmy line because it is way too human-esque, glamora in particular.
The Champion design just looks like Flannery with more bells and whistles.
Treetop Town.
above the ground? Maybe try sea level. I know that it's Pokemon, but unless your region happens to have a race of mega trees for whatever hippy reason, I would rethink that description.
Overall, there is a lot of things that I think you should work on if you want to make your project stand out, and impress people. I think there is some potential in these ideas, but you're going to need to make some modifications. Don't feel bad, because these can be worked out, but you're going to have to rethink some of these concepts if you want to make them successful. Thanks for reading.

Cyber/Netcentric deputy director offers tips on life and work

by Warren Russo
Global Command and Control System-Air Force acquisition manager
7/21/2011 -
HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass.
-- For the better part of an hour at Hanscom's Education and Training Center on July 13, Col. Alfonso A. LaPuma entertained 27 Junior Force Council members and guests with witty tales of his unlikely rise in the ranks of the U.S. Air Force.
"I'm the guy who couldn't hold a job," joked Colonel LaPuma, referring to his progression from operations training to weapons controller to program management.
"If you had asked my ROTC commander back at Clarkson University if I would make colonel, he'd probably still be laughing. I'm still waiting for the phone call telling me it's all been a clerical error and that I should get the heck out of here."
Currently serving as deputy director of the Cyber/Netcentric Directorate, the colonel presented his list of 19 humorous "LaPuma's Truisms," covering many aspects of government life and work. Some of his favorites:
On Email Etiquette: Colonel LaPuma strongly advocates waiting 24 hours before responding to annoying email messages, as a way of avoiding the trouble he has experienced every time he has violated that rule.
"If you get one that really torques you," he said, "be sure that you always wait at least 24 hours before responding."
On Management: "You'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar ... always give people an out."
In Colonel LaPuma's view, "you want to be known in your career as the person who hands out the honey. If you always hammer people, they're just going to get demoralized, and you won't get anywhere."
On Intuition: "Trust your spider sense. If your gut is telling you that something's wrong, don't ignore it - it probably is wrong."
Spider sense can help you know facts before you can actually prove them, said the colonel.
On Defense Acquisition Boards: "Even if you have done everything correctly, you had better know the people, as it is a very personality-driven process. They expect you to know what their concerns are, and if you don't, it will work against you."
On Public Affairs: "Don't underestimate the resources needed to execute a public affairs plan. If you wait until the day before a major announcement to draft a script for senior leaders, it's way too late. Anything big or controversial needs to be worked on months in advance."
On Surprise: "Don't think it can't happen to you."
As a prime example, Colonel LaPuma referred to himself as the most unlikely colonel in the Air Force.
"On 9/11, everyone wanted to know why NORAD couldn't see inside the United States. The answer is because it was designed to watch for Russian Bear bombers," he explained. "Things will happen when you least expect them."
On Frustration: "Learn when to stop fighting at your level and kick the ball upstairs. When people appear to be unreasonable, there's usually a reason. If you find yourself facing an invincible wall, there's no shame in kicking the matter upstairs," said the colonel. "Work well with your peers if you want to get anything done."
Generationally speaking
Drawing on another one of his lists, Colonel LaPuma offered practical advice from his compendium of "Unique Lessons Learned."
Work: "Don't take it home. Leave for the day and really leave for the day."
If you constantly take work home, he said, the two parts of the day will merge and you will lose the value of the break. Doing this will actually make you less efficient, as well as less happy.
People: "There are different types of people in the workplace and since people react differently, how you communicate makes a difference."
Citing a favorite volume, "The Challenge of Leading Across Generations," by Peter Ronayne, Colonel LaPuma - who holds a degree in psychology - described some of the basic differences between traditionalists, baby boomers, Generation Xers and millennials.
The colonel described growing up as a "typical Gen-Xer latchstring kid" with no child care who came home to an empty house every day. "Today we're all helicopter parents, constantly watching over our kids."
Other items Colonel LaPuma shared:
- "If you refuse to have balance in your life, at least exercise."
- "When something goes wrong, don't just do the opposite, find the root cause."
- "Of the three - cost, schedule, performance -- politics is the most important."
- "Manage yourself and manage others, but don't give out fish sandwiches. Teach people to fish instead."
- "It's more important to make the donuts than to talk about making the donuts."
- "The psychology of the situation is usually more important than the facts."
- "Mechanics over heroics - make the process easy to understand."
- "When really lost, refog the scope." Recalling his moment of bewilderment while operating a Patriot missile battery, Colonel LaPuma said that a brief mental break can facilitate problem solving.
- "Have a tactical, operational and strategic plan. Think of the 12 key steps you need to get where you're going."
In closing, Colonel LaPuma described his four-step philosophy about goals and measures. When performance is:
- measured, performance improves.
- measured and reported, the rate of performance improves.
- measured, reported and compared, the rate of performance continues to improve.
- measured, reported, compared and rewarded, those whose performance has improved the most will improve even more.

"The economic and technological triumphs of the past few years have not solved as many problems as we thought they would, and, in fact, have brought us new problems we did not foresee"
"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."
"The spending philosophy of those consumers who 'live for today' is no surprise in light of soaring debt statistics nationwide. What is surprising are the types of people who actually live this big spending philosophy. While the strongly agreed/agreed response was spread fairly evenly over 18 to 54 year-olds, there was a definite division along income lines."
"I believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me. With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about."

Hi guys, nice to meet you in Magento blog!
Have you guessed out the topic of our talk this week through the title above? So obvious, isn't it? Yeah, today I bring you a story on an extension, which I am sure most of you are so familiar with. It's One Step Checkout. The guest of our interview this week is Alejandro, the owner of La Rage Shirts (LeRageShirts.com). His store is located in Florida, US and specializes in providing high quality and unique tees at great prices. Alejandro has worked with some of our extensions like One Step Checkout, Facebook Comment, Affiliate Plus, Social Recommend, and Daily Deal. Today we will explore how One Step Checkout has been helpful for his business.
In the senior year of studying Marketing at Florida Gulf Coast University, Alejandro launched his online T-shirt store as a hobby. "Now it is not only my hobby, but also my passion for seeing people wearing the funny designs that we make, and the response from our clients is amazing and very motivational," he said.
Home page of LeRageShirts.com
With a motivation of fostering his business, Alejandro tried hard to find something which is really useful for his website. "I found Magestore when I was researching for some extensions for my website," he told me. He found out at Magestore valuable supports for his online business. "In terms of checkout process, One Step Checkout is a milestone. How convenient it is for customers to edit the fields. The checkout process is much faster now."
Checkout page of LeRageShirts.com
All Checkout information such as billing address, shipping, payment method will be all displayed together in one page at the same time for Customers to fill in or edit any step without waiting, going back and forth. Consequently, Customers save much time on Checkout and more quickly place order with a pleasant feeling for the convenience of your site. Moreover, Alejandro was also impressive with the support team: "I have worked with them several times, and they have always been helpful and knowledgeable. In case you have any issues they would be able to help."
Alejandro – Store Owner of LeRageShirts.com
Alejandro always had good experiences with Magestore and Magento One Step Checkout is one of them. It is worth trying this module!

$400 million of rated debt affected
New York, June 16, 2010 -- Moody's Investors Service today placed Quiksilver Inc.'s ("Quiksilver") B3 Corporate Family Rating and Caa2 Senior Unsecured Note Rating on review for a possible upgrade. Moody's also affirmed the company's Speculative Grade Liquidity rating at SGL-3.
The review for possible upgrade reflects Quiksilver's announcement that it has entered into an agreement to exchange $75 million of outstanding principal amount of its senior secured term loans for newly issued common shares. Quiksilver also has an option, exercisable in its sole discretion, to require the lender to exchange up to an additional $65 million of the remaining outstanding principal amount of senior secured term loans for common stock. These transactions are subject to certain conditions, including but not limited to Quiksilver shareholder approval. The review for possible upgrade is also being undertaken in the context of recent improvement in Quiksilver's operating performance -- most notably its higher gross margins. These benefits are partially tempered by weak performance of the company's Roxy brand and sluggish performance in the Asia/Pacific region.
Moody's review will be focused on Quiksilver's ability to repay a significant portion of the secured term loan by concluding the exchange offer and/or from proceeds of alternative equity or equity-related financing. Repayment of the senior secured term loan with proceeds (via exchange or otherwise) from an equity offering would result in a material improvement in credit metrics.
The following ratings were placed on review for possible upgrade. LGD assessments are subject to change:
Corporate Family Rating at B3
Probability of Default Rating at B3
$400 million senior unsecured notes due 2015 at Caa2 (LGD 5, 80%)
The following rating was affirmed:
Speculative Grade Liquidity rating at SGL-3
Moody's last rating action on Quiksilver Inc. was on October 7, 2009 when the rating on its $400 million senior unsecured notes was lowered to Caa2 from Caa1.
The principal methodology used in rating Quiksilver Inc. was Moody's Global Apparel Rating Methodology published in May, 2010 and available on www.moodys.com in the Rating Methodologies sub-directory under the Research & Ratings tab. Other methodologies and factors that may have been considered in the process of rating this issuer can also be found in the Rating Methodologies sub-directory on Moody's website.
Quiksilver, Inc. is a designer and distributor of branded apparel, footwear, accessories, and related products under brands including Quiksilver, Roxy, and DC. The company generates annual revenue of about $1.9 billion.

Located in a peaceful area between the mountains, Mozaik Hotel is just 600 metres from the beautiful Oludeniz Beach.
Score from 22 reviews Wonderful
|Offering an outdoor pool and a restaurant, Star Hotel is located in Oludeniz. Free WiFi access is available. Each room here will provide you with a TV, air conditioning and a balcony.
despite being in a very touristy town, this hotel was away from the hustle and bustle but still close to amenities, shops, beach etc
Location was good. Staying in Fethiye could be better.
Reception, not clean, old facility, breakfast
Very nice hotel located 3 minutes from the beach, beautiful view from the terrace
Anywhere in the page of the hotel in the Booking are not warned that payment is made in cash, so if you visit this hotel you have to take with you more money. Wi-fi sometimes lost or becomes very slow. Breakfast is not sufficiently varied as other hotels in Turkey where we were before.
The condition of bed is terrible. Air conditioning is very loud but service and mood is good. Cute pool!
- Location near the sea - Nice staff
- Wifi simply doesn't work: no connection or ultraslow speed - Breakfast is always the same, nothing change in 8 days - Tents are with light colors, so at 8am the light comes in the room - Tv is too small - No free parking, just the street - Pay in advance and not at the check out day
Blue Star hotel is located in the heart of Oludeniz. You are 100 meters off of the beach and the main street is one block away. We stayed in room 218. Nice shower with good water pressure, good size room, and the A/C worked well. Standard Turkish breakfast. We enjoyed several drinks at the poolside bar. Staff were great, would definitely return.
My only complaint is the wifi is terrible. You can do some basic things, but it is very slow.
Location,food. Very,very profesional staff(receptionists,cleaners,waiters)
Location near the beach, friendly staff.
Breakfast needs more variety. Hotel main currency should be in turkish lira not in sterlin pounds ( not all visitors are british).
Kınd staff,clean rooms and pool. Location was super. The owner and all of his family were helpful and trust. Restorant staff also was very attentive. I recommend this hotel to everybody who is going to travel to Fethiye
super location!
right off the main drag. can get loud at night. Have to pay in cash when checking in.
An overall improvement in the hotel since my last stay around 5 - 6 years ago, ie new bathrooms with reliable hot water. Rooms well cleaned and tidied every day.
Very close to the beach, quiet place.
Don't stay there in April!!! They were not ready to accept customers.

Jan Vertonghen admits Tottenham 'will have to improve' if they are to qualify for Champions League
Finishing in the top four looks a tough task
Tuesday 04 March 2014
Tottenham Hotspur are running to keep pace with the top four, but with Liverpool starting to pull away, Jan Vertonghen knows that they might have to catch someone else instead.
Although Manchester City are the closest team to Spurs, just four points ahead of them, Manuel Pellegrini's side have played two fewer league games. City, most probably, will finish strongly. If Tottenham chase down one team and beat them to a Champions League place, the likeliest could even be Arsenal.
"You don't only have to watch Liverpool," said Vertonghen, after Spurs beat Cardiff City 1-0 on Sunday night. "I think there are other teams who can drop down so we are just watching fourth place, no matter who we catch."
Tottenham play Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool this month, and Vertonghen admitted that Spurs "will have to improve, especially as we're playing better sides this month."
Wins against any of those teams would drag them back towards Tottenham – Sherwood said he would like to "mess up" the other team's seasons - and the immediate focus is on Saturday evening's trip to Stamford Bridge, to face Jose Mourinho's title chasers. Vertonghen, who came to Spurs to play elite games like this, is looking forward to it. "For both of us, it's a very important game. We want a good result and they want to win, obviously so it'll be a nice game. I'm looking forward to it."
The game that stands out the brightest, though, is not this weekend but next. Tottenham host Arsenal in the season's third north London derby. If Spurs beat Chelsea they will be just three points behind going into that game at White Hart Lane. Arsenal are just starting to stutter, having won two of their last six league games. There were tight chases for Champions League places between Spurs and Arsenal in the last two seasons, and there might just be another one this time.
If Tottenham have a good March, and a good end to the season, much will hinge on Roberto Soladado, the £24million striker who scored just his sixth league goal of the season – and his second from open play – on Sunday. Vertonghen said that Soldado "needed" the goal, and there is a hope that he can take this new confidence into these big games.
"Of course, he's a striker and he wants to score," Vertonghen said. "We know he is doing a lot of work for us without scoring goals but for himself and for the press and for everyone, it's good that he scored a goal. It keeps the pressure off him. We all like him and we know he is doing well. He has had some bad luck and that's why we were all happy for him."

I have been a guitar and voice instructor for over 15 years, and a piano teacher for 3. I have currently added beginning violin and ukulele. I have also tutored elementary students and worked for Montessori's for many years. I really love this job! I had a real hard time learning guitar when I was growing up because of an accident to my left arm, but I wanted to play so much that I was able to overcome it. Because of this, I think I have learned to be a very patient teacher. I see students who get frustrated and think that it's too hard to play the guitar, but I promise you my program is fun and simple. I can show you the steps to success. I have taught over 500 students in a variety of cities from Minneapolis Minnesota, to Los Angeles California, and now Portland ...
I have taken piano lessons for the past 17 years and have been teaching for the last 5. While working on my Bachelor of Arts in Music at Willamette University, I decided to give piano lessons during the summer and found it to be an exciting way to connect with new people of all ages, give them a skill that they can use for the rest of their life, and grow as a pianist myself. Now that I have graduated, I am focusing on teaching more full time, and could not be more thrilled about it. Now giving Skype lessons!
*** Lesson Details ***
Having had the experience of putting in a lot of practice during the week, only to be too tense and nervous during my lesson to play well, I try to make my lessons a place where students can feel calm and relaxed. I do this by implementing humor into the ...
I studied viola at Oberlin Conservatory of Music and moved to Portland this year to pursue performance and teaching opportunities. I am a regular performer and participant in Classical Revolution PDX. I have also been known to frequently take the music of J. S. Bach out busking on the streets of Portland.
My initial studies were on violin using the Suzuki method, which has greatly influenced my teaching approach. However, I am dedicated to customizing the lesson time and structure to the needs and priorities of my students.
Very few "viola teachers" play viola as their primary instrument. As a full-time violist, I can help you learn how to play this idiosyncratic instrument from my own experience.

Over the years, I have learned many skills, primarily because of my willingness to try anything once. I have taught children as young as two years old in China how to speak English, I help people every day with their nutrition, I mentor business leaders all over the world who run businesses that are designed to heal the Earth, and I even taught my 6-month old kitten how to play fetch.
I love to teach because it creates something even more powerful than Education - it creates connections. Connections to the world around us, to life, to happiness, to fun. I care deeply for others and the most beautiful thing to see are the smiles on peoples faces when they succeed. Let us succeed together!

NCF Nation: Wildcats-Eers-102012
Big win has K-State thinking Big Bowl
October, 21, 2012
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Bill Snyder doesn't deal in the hypothetical very often, if ever.
What is, is. Preparation and hard work fuel success. Not the catchiest of catch phrases, but it's worked OK for more than a couple of decades for a man who just might be the greatest coach in college football history (and is certainly its most underappreciated).
Get better every day. That's what Snyder asks his players to do.
This year, it's exactly what the Wildcats have done, and that improvement was on display in Saturday's 55-14 laugher in Morgantown, where Kansas State embarrassed yet another team picked to finish ahead of it in the Big 12 preseason poll.
"We've found a level a consistency that was good and that we want to see, but there's still things we can't have," quarterback Collin Klein said, citing a failure to score a touchdown on the game's opening drive, when K-State settled for three points.
Never mind that it scored touchdowns on its next seven drives, while Klein passed his opponent, Geno Smith, as the Heisman Trophy front-runner in the process.
"They kicked our butts," Smith said, adding that he'd never faced "adversity of this magnitude" after a pair of blowout losses to Kansas State and Texas Tech.
Klein led the way with a career-high seven touchdowns and 323 passing yards, scoring four times on the ground and throwing three touchdowns to just two incompletions on 21 attempts. He was slinging it well enough to lead Chris Harper to start calling his quarterback "John" late in the game.
As in Elway. We'll see about that, but the defense played as big a part as any in the 41-point beatdown.
[+] Enlarge
AP Photo/Christopher JacksonKansas State hounded QB Geno Smith into his worst yardage total under Dana Holgorsen.
The Wildcats picked Smith off twice Saturday, twice more than all six teams the Mountaineers had previously faced this season. The defense held him to 143 yards on 21-of-32 passing, his lowest total under coach Dana Holgorsen.
Hold a mirror up to these Wildcats and you'll see Snyder, who had a lengthy face-to-face visit on the field to encourage Smith after the game, and left the gridiron to chants of his own name yet again from a visitors section packed with purple.
His 16 goals? His demands for one thing above all -- to improve each day? Kansas State has followed the path this season, and that daily improvement has it in position to make a run at the BCS title game. It's beaten the two teams most likely to beat out the Cats for a Big 12 title, and did so on the road as an underdog.
"We are just what we are," Snyder said, again wearing his commemorative windbreaker jacket from last year's Cotton Bowl, again sipping on some coffee with cream and sugar while fielding postgame questions. "I believe our players embrace those values. ... They're the same values you've taught your son or your daughter."
The win over Oklahoma looks better by the day -- the Sooners have beaten their last three opponents by 21, 42 and 45 since -- and the SnyderCats are the lone undefeated Big 12 team standing.
Alabama and Florida stand above the Cats and are on a crash course to meet in the SEC title game. Oregon (maybe) sits above the Wildcats at No. 3.
Still, if Kansas State keeps winning, the cards are likely in place to finally give Snyder a shot at the national title that eluded him back in 1998, thanks to an upset loss to Texas A&M in the Big 12 title game. Any talk about that, though, wouldn't be Kansas State's style.
One game at a time. Better every day.
"One of those [16 goals] is no self-limitations," Snyder said. "However good we may or may not have been today, tomorrow, there isn't any reason why you can't be better."
When you've gotten as good as Kansas State has, there's plenty of time to relax. After picking Smith off twice, Snyder joked on the sidelines that the Wildcats would stop the game and hold a pep rally if they picked him off a third time. That didn't happen, but Snyder's feeling a lot looser these days now that he's cleaned up the mess his successor/predecessor, Ron Prince, left behind.
"He's a lot looser than when he first got here, but we sucked when he first got here, so I would be mad, too. We've gotten way better, 20,000 times better," Harper said.
Harper saw that turnaround in Year 2, when the Wildcats jumped from 7-6 to 10-3, losing one of those games by just seven points on the road to Big 12 champion Oklahoma State -- and with a few more seconds, Kansas State might have escaped with a win.
"We understood that what we were doing," Harper said. "It worked."
It always has for Snyder. Will it work better than ever, and keep a healthy zero in the loss column through December?
By now, it's getting harder and harder to bet no.

October, 20, 2012
By ESPN.com staff | ESPN.com
Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein talks about the possibility of being K-State's first Heisman winner and his big night in a 55-14 win over West Virginia.
Instant analysis: Kansas State 55, WVU 14
October, 20, 2012
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- That was about as complete a beatdown as you'll see in the Big 12.
Kansas State dominated from start to finish and rolled to a 55-14 victory Saturday. Here's a little instant analysis:
It was over when: Kansas State answered a Tavon Austin 100-yard kickoff return with yet another touchdown to take a 31-7 lead with 17 seconds left in the first half. It was West Virginia's only sign of life all night, and Kansas State stomped it out systematically.
Game ball goes to: Collin Klein. He took control of the Heisman race with a virtuoso performance against an overmatched defense, carrying the Cats to the blowout. He finished with 323 yards on 19-of-21 passing and rushed for 41 yards. He accounted for seven touchdowns (three passing, four rushing). It was his first game with three touchdowns of each variety.
Stat of the game: Kansas State scored on its first eight drives of the game, including seven consecutive touchdown drives after settling for a field goal on the opening possession. When the streak ended, K-State led 52-7.
Stat of the game 2: Geno Smith broke Trent Dilfer's NCAA record with 273 passes without an interception to start the season, but Arthur Brown ended that run on Smith's first attempt of the second half. Brown also was the first player to intercept last year's Heisman winner, Robert Griffin III, in the fourth game of the year.
What West Virginia learned: Woof. What is wrong with the offense? Hey, the defense figured to have issues coming into the season, but the offense has just disappeared, going scoreless until the game was well out of hand. This after managing only seven relevant points in last week's blowout loss to Texas Tech. The Mountaineers are reeling, and both sides of the ball are in trouble.
What Kansas State learned: It just might have what it takes to go all the way. There are plenty of quality teams left on the schedule, but the Wildcats will be favored the rest of the way and look very capable of going undefeated. Plus, unlike in the 1998 season, there's no Big 12 championship game at the end if the Cats do win out.

Morgantown: Perfect for Big 12 clash
October, 20, 2012
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- The clouds covering Milan Puskar Stadium are expected to clear by kickoff and the town is hoppin' before tonight's game against Kansas State. I'll be on hand all night to bring you coverage via Twitter during the game and on the blog once it's over.
Stedman Bailey (ankle) is expected to play tonight, but how effective will he be? If he's clearly hobbled, you may see Kansas State's defense focus on Tavon Austin like Texas Tech did a week ago and have some success limiting the high-powered Mountaineers offense.
The task ahead of Allen Chapman and Nigel Malone is a tough one, but they'll get plenty of help from the offense. Kansas State is without a doubt going to win the battle of time of possession. How lopsided that battle is won should be a major indicator of whether or not Kansas State gets out of Mountaineer Field with a win and a comfy seat at the head of the Big 12 title table.

Top 5 Convertible Bags: Multitask Force
Bags are the only accessories that can truly multitask (other than shoes, which make for pretty handy bug exterminators when the occasion arises). The oversize pouch is the "it" clutch if there was ever such a thing, which is exciting because that allows you to justify investing in a luxe laptop case (finally!).
Marc Jacobs Fall 2014 Collection: Oh, You Pretty Things
Freezing rain and slush-filled sidewalks aside, Marc Jacobs' Fall unveiling (the first without a second gig on his agenda in 14 years) was the best show of the week for me. Billowing clouds reaching down from the ceiling instantly set a mood of freewheeling lightheartedness. And why not? After well over a decade at Louis Vuitton, the man is free.

Snowmageddon have you stuck inside? No worries! You've still got a front row seat to the best ticket in town – the Marc Jacobs Fall 2014 runway show. Make a hot cup of cocoa, put up your feet, and enjoy! It all goes down at 8 p.m. EST.

Sarah Michelle Geller sports Rag and Bone ankle boots that can take you from day to downtown with ease.
NET-A-PORTER Sale: International Edition
What better way to start the week than with some sale shopping? NET-A-PORTER's markdowns went international just in time for the holidays. Consider it an early gift! The bag selection is heavy on neutrals, which makes rationalizing these well-priced purchases even easier.
TheCorner.com Sale: 50% off plus additional 20% off!
I woke up bright and early to shop the sales but could not decide if I should indulge on winter stuff now or splurge on spring in a few months. But you know what they say, a bird in the hand is….
Louis Vuitton vs. Balenciaga: Ghesquière's Next Chapter
From the enigmatic and avant-garde to the upbeat and ladylike (and oft monogram-laden): While both have storied histories, the house of Balenciaga could not be more different from mega-brand Louis Vuitton. Yet the wise choice of Nicolas Ghesquière to succeed Marc Jacobs was of no surprise to me.
Top 5 Day Bags for Fall: Carry On…and On…and On
There are days when it's all about the bag. You take out your wardrobe's best and enjoy putting forth the energy to baby it with precious treatment. And then there are those days when life gets in the way and you're too busy to worry about taking care of an investment piece while you go about your business.
Louis Vuitton Spring 2014 Collection: Paint It Black
The biggest buzz at Paris Fashion Week: the rumor that Marc Jacobs is set to depart Louis Vuitton after 16 years at their helm. While confirmed immediately after the show, all the attendees, myself included, hoped the rumor wasn't true. Not that the show itself didn't send the message.

Devine Intervention
Location: N/A
By: Anthony
I am with the armed services assigned with a special unit to work on the terrorist communist groups in my country. We were then given a week-long mission purposely to recover war materiel hidden by the communists in a remote community. As we learned during the briefing before we departed for the mission, only two armed bandits were guarding the supposed hide-out. Our commanding officer decided, the three of us could handle the job plus the guide who will accompany us to the target area. Two days passed and we hadn�t carried out the mission due to some circumstances. Unknown to us, some twenty heavily armed communist insurgents were holed-out in the area by then. On the fourth day we proceeded with our plan and headed for a recon on board an SUV. We did not consider arming ourselves with high-powered firearms and brought only pistols. My commanding officer did not even bring a stick to protect himself, but just put-on an armor vest confident that our plan will work out. The plan was, after the recon we turn back, the guide will trick the two commies and we jump on the two and subdue them. As we passed-by on the heavily tinted SUV, we marked the target and drove ahead for 200 meters and made an abrupt turn towards the target. We were still unaware of the danger lurking ahead. It has been my habit saying a prayer of protection from Mama Mary when going to work. I was holding a small wooden crucifix hung around my neck when I asked �Lord if it is your will deliver them to us� when we make the recon. Then the odd thing happened, when the SUV was heading for the assault. At about hundred meters from the target, I said to the team �Get ready!� And that was the last thing I remembered and all the rest of us. As if the world had disappeared and time had stopped for a couple of minutes. We all regain our senses some seven kilometers away back heading our home base and exclaimed in unison �what happened!� We are all flabbergasted and cannot believe what had just transpired. When we returned to the command post everybody is still awake at 1:30am waiting for us to return because the commanding officer joined the mission. In the morning it was decided to stand-by for another operation but was completely cancelled the following day after receiving negative report on the objective. The whole picture of the incident became clear, God sent an Angel to protect us from harm. A young soldier among those waiting for our arrival told us that we had a �company� when we returned. He told me that there were four of us except the guide in the vehicle. A young boy dressed in white was positioned between you and the driver of the SUV, he said. The boy never left the vehicle while the mission is on stand-by. He just left when commanding officer finally terminated it. A few days later we learned from intelligence report of the twenty terrorist waiting for us and had also left after our first day of operation. Home in our headquarters in the capital, I told the young soldier, �why did you not inform me at once�, I demanded. And he replied �Sir, I thought you�re aware of the boy beside you; and I thought all along that the boy was the informant�s son or you�ve just pick-up along the way�. And I thank God the more and pray too to His Holy Angels.
Some may never see with earthly eyes these heavenly beings or know that they exist. Many are unaware of the numerous ways they have protected and guided us. We would like to share with you the stories of people who take pleasure in expressing how real angels are.
