Wearing MBT Shoes for the first time? Watch the MBT Shoes Instructional Video
This is the third pair of MBT's I have bought, the second from FOOTWEAR ETC. To be brief, these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I'm on my feet 12 to 15 hours a day, and these shoes are lifesavers.. I tried a knockoff copy called Shape up's, They lost their buoyancy in a few months. The original pair of MBT's I bought 3 years ago, are still as comfortable as ever, holes and all.
You can't beat these MBTs for comfort. They are especially great for folks with foot sensitivities. Great feel for the money.
I already own 15 pairs of MTB (I won't wear anything else) and these are the most comfortable pair yet.

Projections for every ranked quarterback are below. Players are ranked based on PredictionMachine.com's 2013 projected statistics for what each player would be expected to do as a 16 game starter on a totally average NFL team against a completely average NFL schedule. Read more about how rankings and projections are done (also includes 2012 quarterback rankings and projections). See biographical and statistical data on each QB prospect here.
Some highlights:
This year, I have added an impact score (0 - 10 scale) for each player that is a relative value based on the projections that can put players in context across positions and draft classes. In the score, a seven or above can generally outperform a replacement player in the NFL at his position as a rookie; an eight or above can be expected to start and a player with a rating over nine is a unique, standout player who could star. As a matter of context, at this time last year, using the same process leveraged for 2013 below (independent of actual drafting teams), the top five quarterbacks last season had scores of: Robert Griffin III (9.5), Andrew Luck (9.1), Russell Wilson (8.5), Brandon Weeden (8.0) and Nick Foles (8.0).
In other words, Geno Smith (8.2), would have ranked fourth on last season's board and is significantly behind RGIII and Luck in value. Smith's best comparison from my ten years of analysis is Andy Dalton. Based on his collegiate performance and measurables, Smith fits somewhere along a spectrum that ranges from Packers' backup Graham Harrell (on the low end) to Russell Wilson (on the high end).
As Matt Richner and I have been discussing, Landry Jones is the real intriguing piece to this draft class. Matt likens him to Kurt Warner due to his arm, passing ability and lack of mobility. For what it's worth, Jones' score (7.5) is just a tenth of a point lower than former Oklahoma Sooner Sam Bradford. Unfortunately for those looking for a quarterback in this class, we do not necessarily think either Bradford or Jones is or ever will be an above average NFL quarterback.
Some players with lower scorers, yet higher variance (potential "boom or bust" players) include: E.J. Manuel, Tyler Bray, Tyler Wilson, Tino Sunseri, Matt Scott, Sean Renfree and Jordan Rodgers. By 2016, most of these players will be out of the league. However, rather it be scheme fit, coaching, luck and/or motivation, one or two of the players in this group could also be a quality starter in 2016. Manuel is the most likely of this list and falls just behind Matt Barkley.
I have not mentioned Mike Glennon yet. His floor and ceiling seem to be as a career backup. For what it's worth though, from strictly a scoring perspective, Glennon (6.7) is tied with Ryan Tannehill from 2012 and is almost a full point ahead of our 2011 projection for Blaine Gabbert.

11/24/2014 Highlight: Using the ResultsFinder for the Week of November 17th - 23rd, one could find that all highlighted college football "normal" or better plays went 6-3 (67% ATS and O/U), highlighted by the Lock of the Week, Appalachian State (+10 vs. LA-Lafayette), winning outright, 35-16, to cover by four touchdowns. The Lock of the Week has won seven of the last eight weeks and is 22-7 (77% ATS) in the last two seasons. Against-the-spread, "normal" or better halftime plays in college football also were solid going 4-2 (67% ATS).
While there have only been three "normal" NFL ATS full game picks in the last two weeks, normal or better NFL against-the-spread halftimes have provided additional value by going 6-1 (86% ATS) in Week 11 and Week 12. Over the last six weeks, all playable full game against-the-spread NFL picks are 39-26 (60% ATS). In that same stretch, "normal or better halftime picks in the NFL are 17-8 (68% ATS). All halftime picks are free for the week!
Finally, in the NBA, all "normal" or better picks went 5-3 (63% ATS and O/U). And, on the ice, all normal NHL plays stayed strong once again returning a profit for the fourth straight week. In the last four weeks, all normal or better NHL picks are 66-44 (60% ML, O/U and PL).

Today's Lead: Cuomo's Corruption Panel Kills Investigation of Democratic Party by David Howard King, Oct 03, 2013 Twitter Gov. Andrew Cuomo's anti-corruption panel has faced increasing criticism as of late that it is unduly influenced by the governor and his aides. The Daily News reports today that the Moreland Commission killed a subpoena requesting fundraising records from the Democratic Party that Cuomo heads. Sources told The Daily News that the subpoena requested information about the Democratic Party's use of "housekeeping accounts" that raised millions of dollars that fueled a campaign to support Cuomo's policies. The administration also reportedly exerted pressure to stop other subpoenas. A spokesperson for the commission declined to comment.

A passenger plane bound for Roanoke was forced to make an emergency landing at Charlottesville Albemarle Airport on Thursday.
At 11:30 a.m., the pilot called the tower to report a small fire and cracked windshield. It safely landed at CHO. All 13 passengers and 3 crew members on board got off safely.
It was Piedmont Airlines Flight 4339 that was scheduled to leave Philadelphia at 10:05 a.m. and arrive at Roanoke at 11:50 a.m. Piedmont Airlines is operated by US Airways.
According to a spokesperson from U.S. Airways, it appears a malfunction in a heating device on the windshield caused it to ignite, cracking the windshield, and then causing smoke to fill the cockpit.
The 13 passengers were provided ground transportation to get to Roanoke.
The 50 seater De Havilland Canada DHC-8-300 Dash 8 plane is grounded right now while the airlines tries to figure out the cause of the malfunction and fixes the problem.

Part of what I love so much, is it has given us a peace of mind when it comes to my daughters activities in school. How could someone not notice them with the bright colors and neat designs.

Dividend Yield: 1.7%

Join SI Premium – FREE
Last quarter, Apple reported selling 26.91 million iPhone units and AT&T said it sold 4.7 million iPhone units. That means AT&T accounts for about 17.47 percent of total iPhone sales.
Also, the 4.7 million iPhones were about 77 percent of AT&T's total smartphone sales of 6.1 million units last quarter.
If AT&T still accounts for 17.47 percent (or so) of all iPhone sales, that means a best-case sales number of 7.7 million iPhones in the most recent quarter would equate to sales of just 44.1 million units for Apple.
That is a lot of smartphones, but it may not be enough for Apple. There are a few opinions, however.
Forbes contributor Chuck Jones said last month that if AT&T can sell 7.5 million iPhones, Verizon (NYSE: VZ) with 5.5 million, and Sprint (NYSE: S) at 2 million, it should be possible for other carriers to chip in 35 million and Apple to reach the magical 50 million unit number.
One of the more noted Apple bloggers, Horace Dediu of Asymco, sees iPhone unit sales of 55.5 million units, making today's guesstimate even worse.
This quarter won't be like previous ones for Apple, as manufacturing and distribution improved enough for a massive acceleration of offering the latest iPhone model in China about a month quicker than the previous model's introduction. Adding another 3 million units to our number still doesn't put Apple at 50 million, though.
Does this mean Apple will miss first quarter estimates when it reports on January 23rd? Hardly, the iPad mini is very hot and might put the quarter over the top. Second quarter guidance, however, is a big worry among investors.
Shares of Apple are up in early trading Tuesday.

Worried about second quarter? Trying to understand why these investors continue to be on pins and needles every quarter. Apple actually beat on the top line last quarter and barely missed on eps. Google missed badly and it seems those investors are thinking more long term....
AT&T q4 iPhone sales
AT&T said they sold 7.2 million IPhones which was more than 300% higher than Android phones. That is is like the Alabama-NDame game a good old fashion butt kicking .
stupid neg spin
and with more global rollouts this quarter, first time all 100 countries this quick, ATT will not be 17% of global sales. More like 15%. 55M iPhones looks like the better number to forecast.
AT&T said it sold MORE than 10m smart phones
AT&T said it sold MORE than 10m smart phones. Also it said "This included best-ever quarterly sales of Android and Apple smartphones" At&t best every iPhone quarter was 4th qtr 2011 where it sold 7.6m iphones. this would bring the iphone sales to around 8-8.5 which would mean around 50-55m iphones.

Visitors to Nassau County's Garvies Point Museum and Preserve were transported back in time on Nov. 23 and 24 when the museum held its Annual Thanksgiving Native American Feast. More than 1,000 people attended the two-day event, which showcased the lives of Native Americans. Numerous hands-on activities gave participants the opportunity to try their luck at spear throwing, corn grinding, cooking over an open fire and pottery making.
The feast was the perfect outing for several Cub Scout troops and group home organizations as well as for families from across Long Island. For Sea Cliff siblings Zeke and Uma it was a special day at a place they visit often and have strong ties to. Their grandfather had been one of the museum's early volunteers. For the Ferrera family of Islip it was a new adventure. Renee Ferrera is a social studies teacher who had taken her classes on trips to Garvies in the past and always enjoyed it.
"When I saw they were having this event, I just knew it would be a perfect time to bring my husband and my own kids here," said Ferrera.
One of the most popular attractions of the weekend was the outdoor fire pit. Volunteer Ted Strickroth (Tipi Ted) of the Wilderness Travel Museum engaged the crowd by demonstrating how to make a fire by, literally, rubbing two sticks together.
"The fire was the TV of long ago," said Strickroth. "Children would sit in the wigwams, watch the fire and listen to the stories of the elders."
Children and adults alike had the chance to prepare and cook native foods over the fire, including popcorn soup, fish and squash. Once the food was cooked, Strickroth explained that in the days of the Native Americans, the young ones
made an offering of food to the elders and, in turn, the elders offered wisdom to the young. The children were then asked to come up to the fire where they were given food that they then offered to an elder in the crowd. The fish and the squash were declared "delicious;" the popcorn soup not so much.
Brian Nugent, the recently appointed Chief Deputy Commissioner of Parks, Recreation and Museums for Nassau County, dropped by on Saturday to survey the festivities.
"This is fantastic," said Nugent. "It shows the true meaning of Thanksgiving in the past and I hope this weekend is the beginning of a great Thanksgiving week for all the families who came here."
Garvies Museum has been celebrating its Annual Thanksgiving Native American Feast on the weekend before Thanksgiving for more than 30 years explained Kathryne Natale, former museum worker and current President of the Friends of Garvies, who first conceived of the idea. Close to 40 volunteers work hard each year to make it a very special event.

Sea Cliff author Margaret Gay Malone is one of 11 authors whose short stories have been selected for publication in the Tuscany Press Anthology in 2015.
The story, Jimmy's Gift, centers around a boy whose generosity and selflessness put him in danger on a brutally cold and snowy day. Malone says it is based on a true story after reading a blurb in Reader's Digest a few years ago about a 12-year-old boy who walked through the snow to help deliver food baskets to those in need; and it turned out that his family's name was also on the list of those in need of help in the community.

I can't even believe it's been 14 years," says Correale. "And so many of the same people come back year after year."

For HIT, Innovation, Not ROI, is the Benchmark
Healthcare IT is expensive. Just for starters, consider that the per-bed cost to implement EHRs and CPOE runs between $14,000 and $65,000 in the US, according to the federal Office of Management and Budget. Even at the low end of the estimate, that's an astonishing amount of money, and it doesn't include higher-order IT systems such as clinical decision support.
The high cost of IT creates a catch-22 for healthcare leaders already strapped for cash and forecasting declining revenues in years to come. IT systems offer a way—perhaps the only way—to lower healthcare system cost in a sustainable manner. But where do you find the money to invest in IT?
A useful perspective comes from a US–European Union comparison. Jean-Pierre Thierry, MD, MPH, points out that the comparable cost for implementing EHR and CPOE is a magnitude lower in western European countries—under $6,000 per bed, on average, and as low as $3,000 per bed in Germany. Part of the discrepancy comes from higher administrative costs in the US due to the multiplicity of payer approaches and billing systems.
Put differently, it's bureaucracy, but not in the usual sense of the word. The state-organized payment systems in Europe run more efficiently than the maze of homegrown systems in the US.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Innovation in itself is not a metric to be measured. You're confusing activity with results. ROI is a result. Change in ROI due to innovation is a result attributable to Innovation. "Innovation is the necessary benchmark" - what does that mean?

'Unconditional Surrender' returns to Sarasota
Date: December 3, 2012
by: Roger Drouin | City Editor
This week is the big week for Sarasota's big sculpture.
Starting Tuesday, "Unconditional Surrender," the 25' tall sculpture of the famous kissing sailor and nurse created by artist Seward Johnson, will be re-installed on Sarasota's bayfront.
The installation will begin at 8 a.m. Tuesday, as a crane lifts the sculpture into place. Work will be complete by Friday, Dec. 7.
The larger-than-life sculpture was removed in April, after a woman driving a four-door white Mercedes Benz smashed into the base of the statue, causing enough damage to the structure to force it to come down. It was shipped to Johnson Atelier, a New Jersey studio that fabricates and installs art sculptures.
Superstorm Sandy delayed the delivery of the sculpture back to Sarasota.
"We are very excited to be bringing the sculpture back to Sarasota, to its permanent home where it belongs," Paula Stoeke, Director of The Sculpture Foundation, said in a press release.
Those who love and those who hate the controversial sculpture have noticed its absence.
Johnson said when he created Unconditional Surrender he wanted to evoke a time of unity in the country.
The moment captured in the embrace of these two strangers encapsulates the spirit of having fought a successful campaign defending our values, and celebrates the expression of sheer joy at the homecoming," said Johnson.

With the 66th Cannes Film Festival just mere days away, producers are looking to get the buzz going early with some trailers for upcoming premieres. We just had our first look at James Franco's adaptation of As I Lay Dying and now the debut trailer has landed for Ari Folman's follow-up to the stellar Waltz with Bashir.
The Congress sees Robin Wright star as a version of herself, depicted as an aging actress who has sold Hollywood digital rights to her younger likeness. The animated segments, which look somewhat insane here, take place 20 years in the future, as Folman loosely adapts Stanisław Lem's The Futurological Congress. Check out the wild trailer below for the film also starring Kodi Smit-McPhee, Danny Huston, Harvey Keitel and Paul Giamatti.
A loose adaptation of Stanislaw Lem's "The Futurological Congress," a 1971 black humour science fiction detailing the exploits of the hero of a number of his books, Ijon Tichy, as he visits the Eighth World Futurological Congress at the Costa Rica Hilton. The book is Lem's take on the common sci-fi trope of an apparently Utopian future that turns out to be an illusion.
The Congress premieres at Cannes Film Festival.

New York's top court says communications between federal and state environmental officials are not exempt from New York's sunshine laws and should be made public.
The Court of Appeals, reversing a midlevel court, says Thursday that New York's Freedom of Information Law has a disclosure exemption for inter-agency or intra-agency documents to protect their process in reaching decisions.[dmc-related-post-wp numitems="3" title="Also read"]
But the court says the statute defines agencies as state and municipal entities, and therefore the exemption doesn't apply to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency materials shared with state officials.
The Department of Environmental Conservation refused to disclose 344 records about dredging PCBs from the Hudson River to the town of Waterford, which sued.
Town officials sought material exchanged between state and federal officials about alternative water supplies and permissible PCB levels.

Great location on Cape Cod Bay with a private beach,(Priscilla Beach). Have vacationed here since childhood. Fortunate to find a private ocean front cottage near the action. Our cottage is close enough to Boston & the Hustle & Bustle of Old Cape Cod, yet set in a peaceful hide-away in Beautiful & Historic Plymouth, Massachusetts.
Guestbook comments from the owner
We just got back from our vacation at your cottage. Thank you so much for letting us rent it. It was like a little bit of Heaven, so quiet and peaceful. We all had such a great time and the view is unbelievable, sunrises and sunsets were amazing! The beach was also beautiful, we hated to leave.
Thanks once again and we hope to rent it next year.

November 25, 2014
Meridian, Miss. Meridian's WIN Job Center was packed Monday morning for the beginning of their five day seasonal job fair. Local employers such as FedEX, UPS, Maurice's, and Hotel and Restaurant Management were meeting with applicants, but as WIN Job Center Branch Director Nellie Satcher says, they expect close to one thousand job seekers to come through their doors this week.
"It is a job fair where we're not only hiring seasonal workers, but permanent workers as well, so the employers are really getting a good shot at meeting a lot of applicants here this week."
As soon as you walk through the front doors, you'll be greeted by a WIN Job Center employee who will walk you through the entire process, and ensure that you get to meet with the employers of your choice."
"At that time you can just select which one you would want to see, or who you would want to be interviewed by or with because they are taking applications and hiring on the spot."
Leona Nealy with Maurice's in Meridian Crossroads says that they were at the job fair last year, and it was a success, so they're back this year looking for more help.
"We were invited to come over, and we are looking for holiday help, and we're always accepting applications, so we just thought this was a smart move to get a jump start on the holiday."
Getting a large number of applicants jobs last year led to the continuation of the fair this year, and Satcher says she hopes this year will be even bigger and better.
"We did get over 120+ that were employed through the different employers. We're really looking forward to that amount and even more this year.
The fair runs through Friday from 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM.

Face-Off: Are Miley Cyrus Photos Inappropriate?by Free Britney at . Comments
Miley Cyrus, 15, has recently come under fire for her controversial topless photos in Vanity Fair. Your comments and opinions are highly encouraged in our Face-Off as The Hollywood Gossip staff members debate the following question ...
YES by mischalova
By law, Miley Cyrus cannot drive a car. She cannot vote, purchase tobacco products, appear in adult videos, serve in the Army or take a sip of alcohol. There is a reason for this: those in charge of this great nation have deemed such activities to be inappropriate and dangerous for a 15-year old.
Whether you think the topless photo of Cyrus in Vanity Fair is "racy" or "artistic," you must agree that it is inappropriate and dangerous, just as sending the singer into the battlefields of Iraq, armed with a voting booth and pack of cigarettes, would be.
At its heart, covering one's bare body with a blanket is a seductive pose.
It's been duplicated throughout time by beautiful women such as Megan Fox and Christina Aguilera. Do you really think they were trying to be artistic, or attempting to sell their records/movies via their sexuality?
Eventually, this may be a permissible path for Cyrus. But not yet. A 15-year old should not be seducing anyone with anything but a catchy beat and a sitcom.
NO by Free Britney
Judge not lest ye be judged.
- Matthew 7:1
How quickly we vilify celebrities - but for what purpose? Jealousy? Self-righteousness? A misguided belief that celebs are (or should be) perfect humans?
Before you get up on your high horse regarding these Miley Cyrus photos, ask yourself what she has ever done to you? By posing for these (tasteful, artistic, innocent) pictures, Miley committed no crime - except in the court of public opinion.
Face it, she is being held to an unfairly high standard simply because the Disney Channel cuts her paychecks. That is preposterous.
Cyrus is a fine young woman who has every right to make her own decisions regarding her body and her image. If offered the cover of Vanity Fair, and a photo shoot with Annie Leibovitz, maybe a lot of us would jump at that chance.
You know it's true. So cut this wonderful, sexy star some slack, enjoy her fine contributions to the entertainment world, and move on.
What do you think? Which side of this Miley Cyrus Face-Off are you on!?
i used to be a big fan of MC....... but now all i like about her is her show Hannah Montana and yet these photos r inappropriate for her younger fans
I rlly dnt c wa da big deal is......its not lyke she showin....."things"........besides er bac??!!....
Im not a big fan but wat is the big deal every 15 year old makes mastakes at leats shes not preganent or got a dui!!!!!!! Every 15 year old makes mastakes and sure shes a roll model but do you think nine year olds are really kenn about this knews?? no, she isnt going to go and pose like that on tv so really!!!!! the thing we dont realize is that shes just like every body else so when she was fascing tough times she died her hair but as much am im sure she loves her fans she cant be perect and the stuiud thing is that if say ur bff got a dui (drunk drivin) no one would know and sure parents and police wouild be made but it wouldnt even be as bad as so "RACY" photos!!!!! Give her a break
i think she should not do that
she is only 15
is was pressured duh duh
I don't think she should have posed for those photos. She is a HUGE role model for young girls everywhere. We don't need 7 and 8 year olds thinking that it is right to do this sort of stuff. Plus, she looks ugly in those pictures. She doesn't look like her normal, pretty self.
I see ribs! She shouldn't become one of those child stars that do drugs become anarexics etc. Personally I don't care about the pictures but she's still 15 and that type of thing should be reserved for the of age crowd.
I don't see the big deal about this. Maybe if i thougt she looked good, but she just look's so pale and bland.Not to mention the photo look's as if any dum ass could've taken it,not pro modeling mag.
I think it was way to seducing of a photo for a 15 year old girl!!! She is only 15! if it's not that big of a deal then why didn't she wait till she was 18 to do the photo?!! Then she would of been an adult and that would have been fine. What makes me most sick is that the adults in her life think that this is ok. Her parents are always trying to make her sound so wholesome and good and innocent and then they let her do a photo like this, they are just like all the other messed up child star parents, they see this poor girl as a dollar sign. So sad
she is a huge skanky slut and needs to stop giving her directors blo jobs to get into movies and she needs to close her legs!!!!!!
I really do not think that they are bad because she is not fully nude I mean she still has some thing on or covering her. I am on your side Miley. Love Ya!!!!!!

Father - Daughter Dance Medley
That was awesome. Faith's going to be lucky if DH really does go on the dance floor with her. LOL
One of the groups at our church actually started sponsoring a "father / daughter" dance (for dads/daughters of all ages). I remember in high school we had that as well and what a special time it was. Dh took some of our girls this year and they had a BLAST. Dh wasn't sure but ended up having a great time. Next year I have to figure out a way to "volunteer" and have a hidden video camera. LOL
I can't wait to watch DD dance with her daddy on her wedding day... OMG I can feel the tears welling up already!
