This is the battery-powered prelit tree that pops up anywhere to form a fully decorated Christmas tree. Exclusive to Hammacher Schlemmer, the branches, lights, and decorations are all contained on the unit's flexible, coil spring-shaped wire frame that telescopes and sets up on the included pole and stand, allowing instant set up. Eliminating the hassle of stringing lights or hanging ornaments, the tree is pre-strung with LED lights that produce a warm holiday glow and pre-decorated with red velveteen bows, woody pinecones, red-ripe berry sprigs, and a shimmering golden tinsel garland. The tree's 3"-long needles create a rich, full tree year after year, and if one of the lights breaks or burns out, the rest remain illuminated. A built-in timer automatically turns the lights on and off. The tree contracts to just 8" tall for easy storage. Requires six D batteries (12 for 9' tree) that illuminate the lights for up to 180 hours. Specify White or multicolored lights. 9' Tree. With 400 LEDs, 33 bows, 35 berry sprigs, 33 pinecones, and 45' of garland. 41"-Diam. (19 1/4 lbs.)

We were not sure how this tree would look, we took the chance and ordered it for our customer lobby. It was very easy to set up and comes in a flat box. We are very happy with the tree. It is full and the decorations look great. We topped ours with a bow topper.

When it comes to history, how do you separate fact from fiction?
Based on the best-selling book, this deliciously demented tour of offbeat American history scours the country in search of the bizarre, unexplained, and really weird stories that never made it into schoolbooks. In this episode, hosts Mark Sceurman and Mark Moran examine if history books are correct when they claim that President Warren Harding died of a heart attack. Was it really foul play? Did the CIA actually spend millions of taxpayer dollars in the 1970s and '80s on psychic research? Did Aaron Burr try to set up his own country in the American Southwest? Sometimes there are stories from history that sound so outrageous they can't be true...but are. Some stories are said to be truth, but are out and out lies. Our two Marks investigate some of the strangest stories they've ever heard, and realize just because something is weird doesn't mean it isn't true. Mark and Mark want to find out: When it comes to history, how do you separate fact from fiction?

Yes that's right ladies and gentlemen, fatfoogoo is heading to the land of fish and chips, one seriously big clock, and drivers on the wrong side of the road.
Last year over 450 attendees from 23 countries descended upon the Virtual Worlds Forum Europe in London. With over 80 speakers, 2 days of workshops, conferences, expos and networking functions this was THE conference to be at.
This year's event looks to meet and exceed expectations. With over 600+ professionals interviewed regarding content, take home podcasts, demo and keynote theatre as well as tech developer streams, that's enough alone to make one shout 'Blimey!'. But wait….there's more! Building upon the overwhelming success of the expo area, this year's Forum includes stands from 25 exhibitors, a shell build scheme, previously mentioned demo and keynote theatre live and in person on the demo floor, live tech developer streams, and 400+ expo only passes.
Direct from Virtual Worlds Forum:
VWF 08 helps you harness the power of virtual worlds to engage with clients, suppliers or customers, connecting brands, corporations, digital and virtual worlds agencies, entertainment and games companies, technologists, academics, regulators and VCs.
We are working on bringing you a bigger expo, more great content and workshops, and parties. We like to party.
Funny…we like to party too!
Our beloved fatfoogoos are raiding London this 6-7 October, are already registered as Associate Sponsors, and our very own Martin Herdina has applied for a speaker placement. Alas, the VWF hasn't gotten back to us quite yet, but if placement if based on knowledge, experience and all around 'He's a good guy to listen to, and knows his stuff'; Herdina's headed to the podium mighty fast.

DOG HEALTH Many new puppies are adopted throughout the year, especially around Holiday time. One responsibility most first time dog owners forget to take into account is the amount of veterinary care that is necessary in keeping your puppy happy and healthy! Learn the basics of finding a vet and getting puppy vaccinated.
DOG HEALTHThere are many benefits to spaying and neutering, but there are also more than a few risks. We want to give you often overlooked information you need to make a full and informed choice.
ADOPTION Are you intimidated by the prospect of "rescuing" a dog from a shelter? One reason that you may be wary of adopting a dog from a shelter is not knowing how to choose. Adopting a dog from a shelter can be a rewarding process, if you're prepared to do a reasonable amount of research.
DOG HEALTH As we get older, most of us probably have at least one prescription medication we take regularly, and for many, some form of pain reliever is a daily necessity. We might think that these same medications can help out our dogs as they get older, but their systems react to these chemical compounds in ways much different than ours.
DOG HEALTH Bringing home a new puppy is so exciting, but it doesn't take all that long for your exuberant puppy to grow into a senior dog who may have special needs. Here are the doggies.com top ten tips for taking care of your companion who has been with you through so much.
DOG FUN Whether you like to go out on your pontoon, a fishing boat, or even a canoe, life on a boat can be even better if you bring your dog along. Here's the doggies.com guide to dogs on boats. (A little different than Snakes on a Plane.)
DOG FUN There 's no doubt about it, taking your dog to the dog park involves a certain amount of good manners. Here's our guide to "keeping your nose clean" while your dog hangs out with his or her friends.
DOG BEHAVIOR Getting bitten by a dog can be scary, and you may be tempted to run around in circles for a while, trying to figure out what to do. Here's our guide to help you manage the situation.

As Michael Schumacher gears up for the penultimate race of his F1 career, the German insists he will still give his "best" out on track.
Formula One is heading to Austin, Texas next weekend for the United States GP, the last time Schumacher will experience a F1 track for the very first time.
And the Mercedes driver is excited about the new venue.
"I'm really excited to see what kind of track we will find and to see if the American fans will embrace our sport," said Schumacher.
"From the pictures and layouts of the circuit that I have already seen, everything looks very good.
"I think Formula One will put on a good show at the Circuit of the Americas, and naturally I will be giving my best to be a part of that."
As for his team-mate Nico Rosberg, the 27-year-old is aiming to score at the "cool" Circuit of the Americas.
"It will be very exciting to race in the USA again and I'm really looking forward to our visit," he said. "The United States Grand Prix should be a great event and a real show for our American fans.
"I can't wait to drive on the Circuit of the Americas track for the first time in practice next Friday. I spent some time practicing on the simulator at the factory this week so I know what to expect and, as a team, we are as well prepared as we can be from our simulator work.
"The track looks cool with a great double S section to begin the lap and it looks like there should be some good opportunities for overtaking.
"We really want to end the season on a positive note so we'll be aiming to score some points next weekend."

Jean-Eric Vergne says he is no longer friends with Daniel Ricciardo as the competition between the team-mates has grown.
The Toro Rosso drivers used to be friends, however, after joining the same squad last season the friendship slowly fizzled out.
"I don't know if it's because we are in F1 or he thinks he has definitely beaten me that we cannot have any relationship, but, no, we don't see each other away from the track and we are not friends," Vergne told the Sydney Morning Herald.
"But to be absolutely honest, I don't mind. He's a good guy. We are both clever people.
"I have absolutely no problem with it because when it comes to the time when we need to work together to improve the car and to move the team forward, we can do this. We have a good working relationship.
"I don't care about going on holiday with my team-mate. I have my friends and I have enough of them and I don't need any more."
But while they are rivals and very competitive against each other, Ricciardo was quick to point out that they are not enemies.
"We've never come to blows or anything like that," said the Australian. "There's never been a moment which has separated the friendship - it's just grown apart with competition.
"I imagine we're probably like most other team-mates. We don't really talk away from the track. We're just doing our own thing. I think it's how it should be as well.
"I think when you're direct rival with someone, you want to have your own space. I think it would be sort of hard to have a true friendship because at the end of the day, we're fighting for maybe one spot and there can't be any conservative approach about it.
"So I think it's good that we keep our distance. We're very competitive and that's how it should be."

Introduction to Drupal Workshop
What is Drupal? For large and complex websites, nothing beats it! Where do you start? What is the best way to organize your project to get the best chance of success?
This workshop will help you turn your ideas into a concrete todo list — whether you're building the site yourself, handing it off to a developer to build, or something in-between.
At this workshop, you'll have access to Drupal experts at Exaltation of Larks — a Drupal strategy, consulting, development and training company in Los Angeles — learn about Drupal and have a fun day!
This is the perfect workshop for you if:
- You're new to using Drupal and need a jumpstart in planning a large project
- You're investigating Drupal's viability for your next project
- You're wondering whether to invest time in learning Drupal
- You don't have the time to learn Drupal but will be involved in a Drupal project
Registration is required. Sign up at http://www.larks.la/training
Be sure to arrive early to give yourself enough time to park, pick a seat, etc.. We begin promptly at 12pm.
Classroom space is limited, so sign up early.
$30 per person.
No one will be turned away from this workshop. If you are unable to pay, you may be eligible for our Training Assistance Program.
We read every request for assistance but may not be able to respond to every one. We decide eligibility on a case by case basis. This offer may not be combined with any other discount.
What to Bring
This is a lunch and learn-style workshop. Come during lunch and learn about Drupal! You don't need to bring a computer unless you need it to take notes. Bring lunch!
Exaltation of Larks' Mentored Drupal Training
What's the difference between this 3-hour lunch-and-learn Introduction to Drupal Workshop and the Mentored Drupal Training that we're offering next door at the same time?
In short, this 3-hour introductory workshop is better suited toward business owners and project managers. The mentored training is geared for folks who are interested in diving deeper into Drupal's systems and APIs, module or theme development or using popular contributed modules (e.g. Views, Rules, Features, etc.) for site building.
- An active interest in learning about Drupal;
- A basic understanding of the Internet and familiarity with how websites function;
- A conceptual understanding of Content Management Systems (CMS), HTML and CSS is beneficial (but not required).
What we've covered in the past based on the interest of our attendees
- When and why to use Drupal;
- Considerations when starting a Drupal project and how to organize your project;
- The basics of Drupal, from content management to membership ("user") management;
- An introduction to databases and queries;
- How to organize your site using Drupal Content Types, Taxonomy and Views;
- How to turn ideas for features and functionality into achievable tasks using user stories and use cases;
- Which tasks are crucial for a successful Drupal website and how to organize them;
- How to choose the right Drupal version and modules for your project;
- The basics of web hosting and getting Drupal running on your own computer;
- How to connect with the Drupal community, its meetups, conferences and job fairs and online discussion forums and chat rooms.

Boston bombing suspect's hearing rescheduled againMay 24, 2013 @ 5:44 am
BOSTON (AP) - A federal judge has rescheduled a probable cause hearing for surviving Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-HAHR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv).
U.S. Magistrate Judge Marianne Bowler on Thursday scheduled the hearing for July 10.
Bowler earlier this week granted a joint request from prosecutors and defense attorneys to postpone the hearing originally scheduled for May 30 until July 2. The lawyers say they need more time to obtain and review evidence.
The bombings near the finish line of the marathon killed three people and injured more than 260. Tsarnaev is charged with carrying out the April 15 attack with his brother, Tamerlan, who died four days later following a shootout with police.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is recovering from gunshot wounds at a federal prison hospital in central Massachusetts.

Damon Hill believes that if Sebastian Vettel was up against any other driver than Fernando Alonso, the title would almost certainly be his.
Heading into the season-ending grand prix in Brazil, Vettel needs only to finish in the top four to win the Championship, while Alonso needs to win the race and hope Vettel finishes fifth or lower.
With the rampant form that Vettel has enjoyed over the second half of the season (he has been on the podium in the last six races, winning four of them), it seems a near impossible task for Alonso to unseat the current title holder.
However, Hill, a World Champion himself in 1996, has warned Red Bull that Alonso is more than capable than of producing the incredible.
"If he had any other opponent, I would say that Sebastian would definitely win with his 13 points advantage," Hill told Die Welt . "But you can't write off someone like Fernando Alonso. He is such a clever and tough driver and he always seems to pull off something extraordinary.
"Anything is possible in Brazil," he added.
"If I had to put a percentage on it, I would say the odds at 65 per cent in favour of Vettel."
Should Vettel triumph, he will have three Championships to his name at the tender age of just 25.
Hill believes that if he wins in Brazil there is a chance he could challenge Michael Schumacher's record of seven titles.
"[The record] is still a very long way away. But he can certainly come close to that number. If Vettel wins in Brazil, then he could quite possibly win two more Championships in his career. At least."

The Buffalo Bills are staying in Western New York for at least the next seven years. Governor Andrew Cuomo, Erie County and the Bills organization signed a 10-year lease agreement Friday to keep the team at Ralph Wilson Stadium. YNN's Kaitlyn Lionti tells us more about the deal.
"I am on the team. Go Bills, go Buffalo, go Western New York!" said Governor Andrew Cuomo.
New York State, Erie County and the Bills have a new lease agreement that lasts 10 years and locks the team in for at least seven, regardless of ownership.
"This is another shining example of Mr. Wilson's loyalty, his commitment to Western New York, and our unwavering belief that this franchise can succeed long term in this region," said Russ Brandon, CEO of the Buffalo Bills.
After that, Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz says the Bills could buy out the the last three years for about $28 million.
But he says, if they wanted to leave, they could have already done so for much less.
"Last year, they could have left this community for $2 million dollars based on the prior lease. I know we have a strong commitment from Mr. Wilson and the Bills organization," said Poloncarz. The agreement also focuses on improving the fan experience. It includes a combined $130 million from the Bills organization, the county, and the state to make upgrades to the stadium.
Cuomo said, "It's an investment in the Bills, it's an investment in Western New York and I'm proud to make that investment."
The agreement also calls for a "New Stadium Working Group," bringing together the county, state and the Bills to explore the potential for building a new stadium in the future.
And he says the agreement also allows the county and state to set aside money for a new facility in the last three years of the lease.
"Half of the money we would normally spend for Ralph Wilson upgrades would be put into a separate account to be used for design and construction of a brand new stadium," said Poloncarz.

Bulls can't get Rose, Rip back soon enough after Pacers' 80-76 win
BY JOE COWLEY email@example.com December 4, 2012 9:51PM
Bulls center Joakim Noah sinks a hook shot in the first half of the Indiana Pacers 80-76 win over the Chicago Bulls December 4, 2012 at the United Center. | Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: December 5, 2012 12:07AM
Life without Derrick Rose has been hard enough to deal with.
Life without Rose and now veteran shooting guard Richard Hamilton while facing an Indiana Pacers team with Central Division title aspirations? There are only so many defensive sets on coach Tom Thibodeau's dryboard to try to overcome that.
Thanks to 34 points from Pacers forward Paul George and an apparent no-call on Luol Deng with five seconds left, the Bulls dropped to 8-8 on the season in an 80-76 loss Tuesday night at the United Center.
''In my eyes, he got wiped out,'' Thibodeau said of Deng's drive. ''In my eyes, wiped out. He had a layup. It was a train wreck, a train wreck.''
With the Bulls trailing by two, Deng made a back-cut toward the hoop, got the pass and was going up for the layup when Pacers center Roy Hibbert — all 7-2 of him — seemingly made contact with Deng, knocking him to the ground. No whistle was blown.
''I got to see it again, but I thought I got fouled,'' Deng said. ''I didn't want to do anything to get a tech or anything. I'm mad at myself that I didn't get a shot up. When he contacted me, I should have just somehow — I lost the ball — but if I would have got a shot up and even if I missed it, I think a teammate would have got the rebound. I've got to do better with that play.''
The Bulls were forced to foul David West, who made both free throws with five seconds left, ending any comeback hopes.
''I don't put it on the officials,'' Thibodeau said. ''We've still got to get it done. It was a tough call that went against us. We shot ourselves in the foot.''
Rose was at the arena Tuesday, shooting by himself hours before the game while the anxiety about his return continued to climb.
A source told the Sun-Times on Monday that several Bulls players believe Rose could be back practicing with the team before Christmas. Nothing was said Tuesday to dispute that, even as the Bulls' protocol on the subject seems to be to say as little as possible.
''He's going to be back. I hope soon, but right now it's important for us to win games,'' guard Marco Belinelli said.
How soon? Thibodeau wasn't budging on answering that.
''He's doing fine, but we're not going to get into daily updates,'' Thibodeau said of Rose, who has been rehabbing from surgery last May to repair a torn left anterior cruciate ligament.
Asked if there was any chance Rose could be back practicing with the team by the end of the year, Thibodeau said: ''Who knows? He's a long ways from that. But he's doing well.''
Hamilton tore the plantar fascia in his left foot in the Bulls' win over the Philadelphia 76ers, and the hope is to have him back in a week or two.
''Rip definitely helps us a lot,'' Bulls center Joakim Noah said. ''But no excuses. It was a game that was definitely winnable.''

Final Thoughts On Ranking 351 D1 Teams
In case you missed it, last Thursday I presented my upgraded projections model. Then I presented my 13-14 season projections on ESPN Insider. My projections included the median simulation, best case, and worst case for every team. I also did a Q & A session with Eamonn Brennan and another one with John Templon. I have also been answering a few questions on Twitter. You would think after all those words I would have run out of things to say, but here are a few thoughts that did not quite make the cut in those articles:
The Underrated Club
Q: Why does the simulation hate Arizona St.? Jahii Carson is one of the best players in the country.
A: Arizona St. is a team with a lot of two-star players on the roster. In fact, they have the second lowest average star rating in the entire Pac-12, ahead of only Utah. Luckily a few of those players are transfers who played well for other teams. But what this really means is that Arizona St. just doesn't have the same upside as many of the other schools in the Pac-12. Herb Sendek's track record on defense is also a huge concern.
Q: Why does the simulation hate Maryland? A lineup of Shaquille Cleare, Evan Smotrycz, Dez Wells, Nick Faust and Roddy Peters sounds like it could hang with anyone. And Seth Allen, Charles Mitchell, and Damonte Dodd all seem like solid reserves. Why is the model so pessimistic?
A: The simulation is concerned that Maryland has only nine scholarship players on the roster. There is real downside risk with such a short bench because if a couple of players struggle or get injured, there are no alternates. Last year N.C. State entered the year with just nine scholarship players and things turned south early. Now, that doesn't mean Maryland is destined to fail, but depth is a risk with this type of roster.
Q: Why does the simulation hate Denver? They had a great margin-of-victory numbers last year.
A: While I truly believe star ratings are important, the focus on recruiting evaluations really hurts the small conference squads in my projections. Only when a small conference team has virtually no lineup questions will that team be ranked near the top. (This year the two exceptions are North Dakota St. and Harvard. North Dakota St. brings back 95 percent of its minutes and gets a player back who was injured for much of last year. Meanwhile Harvard gets two star players back who were suspended last season.)
In Denver's case even with several efficient players back, particularly star Chris Udofia, winning seems likely. But Denver has to replace two of the three players that played the most minutes last season. And the likely replacements will only be two-star athletes. That's not to say that head coach Joe Scott cannot build a winner again. But it is very hard to get a Top 50 margin-of-victory in a small conference. And if Scott does it again, that should be considered a huge accomplishment. It shouldn't be the expectation. (The real issue for Denver is finding another ball-handler to compliment Udofia. Last year Royce O'Neale and Udofia both were key distributors for the team, but with O'Neale transferring to Baylor, the remaining options are not great.)
Random Thoughts on Some Major Conference Teams
- In my Insider column, I said that the Spartans were the lowest risk team in the nation which sparked some jokes from Michigan St. fans on Twitter. I think this points out how insanely volatile college basketball can be. Even when the Spartans bring back five of their six top rotation players including three clear stars, their fanbase in nervous. Part of that is the fact that Tom Izzo's teams notoriously struggle in November. But when a team with Top 10 talent brings nearly everyone back and their fans are nervous, you know that anything can happen in college basketball.
- Michigan's position in 12th in my rankings is a little misleading. I honestly believe that Mitch McGary and Glenn Robinson can lead this team a long way. But I am legitimately concerned about the guard rotation. John Beilein was very reluctant to play Jordan Morgan and Mitch McGary together last season because they weren't outside shooters. So I have to assume Robinson will play most of his minutes at the four-spot again this year. But then how does the guard rotation work? Does the team play Spike Albrecht, Derrick Walton, and Nick Stauskas together? What if Albrecht and Walton aren't ready? That is why my model has such a low downside for the Wolverines. (And don't tell me Caris LeVert is the answer. He was a low-ranked recruit and nothing he did last season leads me to believe he should be a key player on a Top 10 team.)
- When I first ran the model, I was a little surprised the downside for Kentucky was not lower. After all, a young Kentucky team lost in the first round of the NIT last season. But this is what happens when you return two efficient high potential players (in Alex Poythress and Will Cauley-Stein), and add five Top 10 recruits. With that many high potential players, even if two or three of them struggle immensely, Kentucky can still win. Kentucky could not afford for Archie Goodwin to struggle and Nerlens Noel to get injured last season. This year if Julius Randle struggles and Will Cauley-Stein gets hurt, the team can just say "Next man in."
- I love the range for Indiana in my ESPN Insider rankings. The team has 7 top 100 recruits, and an elite season is still possible. But given all the new faces and how little most of the returning sophomores played last year, the downside risk is major.
- If you want to vote any of my model's Top 34 teams into the Top 25, I can see arguments for all of them. But I stick by my model's skepticism of Baylor. Pierre Jackson carried the Bears last year and I don't see how they can be a better team without him. Their margin of victory was 26th last year (thanks to winning the NIT) and I only give them about a 20 percent chance to do better than that.
- If you have ESPN Insider, look at how painfully low Alabama's downside is this year. After Devonta Pollard was arrested this offseason, the team is down to nine scholarship players who are eligible this year. If someone on Alabama's squad doesn't play well, there are no alternatives. This is too bad because Anthony Grant is such a talented young coach, but off-court issues keep derailing his teams.
- Iowa St. made a great move adding Marshall transfer DeAndre Kane. But I suspect Fred Hoiberg needed to add a couple more transfers to keep his transfer winning streak going. With 64% of the lineup gone and four of Iowa St.'s six most efficient players departing (Melvin Ejim and George Niang return), expect Iowa St. to take a step back.
- My model is more optimistic about Seton Hall than what you see in some other rankings. Texas transfer Sterling Gibbs will be a huge upgrade over Tom Maayan and his 50% turnover rate. And with fewer injuries, Kevin Willard should have the defense playing better.
Random Thoughts on Some Mid-Major Conferences
- I've still got St. Mary's on the NCAA bubble. Many will discount the team after Matthew Dellavedova's departure. But Beau Leveasque and Stephen Holt aren't suddenly going to forget how to shoot. Brad Wadlow isn't going to stop being a physical force on the boards and finishing over 60 percent of his shots. This team still has talent.
- The team I think most pundits have over-rated this year is Northeastern. The Huskies were extremely lucky last year. Despite the 7th best MOV in the CAA, they won a ton of close games, including a 4-1 record in OT. Their conference title is very deceiving. With the team's leading scorer and most efficient player Joel Smith gone, a repeat conference title seems unlikely.
- One team I am buying is Weber St. Weber St. had the best margin-of-victory in the Big Sky last year. They even outscored Montana by 19 points in their three meetings. But somehow they went 1-2 against the Grizzlies and that 1-2 mark gave Montana the regular season and conference tournament title. Weber St.'s aggressive and efficient inside-outside combination of Davion Berry and Kyle Tresnak is going to make sure that doesn't happen again.
- The conference champion I expect to come out of nowhere this year is Manhattan. Manhattan somehow lost 10 games to conference foes, but only one of those games was by double digits. This team was much better than last year's conference record would indicate.
- The race for the Big West title is wide open. I have five teams projected within one game of first place in that league.
- The CUSA race should also be highly entertaining. Louisiana Tech is the only team in CUSA that returns over 70 percent of its minutes from last year. (Tech brings back 85 percent of its minutes.) And Tech's losses won't hurt the offense. The team loses its least efficient player Brandon Gibson, and the extremely passive JL Lewis. With an already solid defense and an improved offense, Louisiana Tech could be headed for the NCAA tournament. But Southern Miss is just as formidable a competitor. The newest Golden Eagle, transfer Aaron Brown, shot the ball extremely well as a sophomore at Temple. His addition could give Southern Miss the CUSA title.
- Speaking of transfers, transfer Jay Harris was the PG on a Valparaiso team that won the Horizon league title in 2012. He could be the key addition that gets Wagner an NEC conference title in 2014.
- Finally, Indiana St. PG Jake Odum has to be kicking himself that RJ Mahurin transferred out in order to play his senior year with his younger brother. Mahurin was the team's only efficient big man, and the Sycamores could have been a more realistic NCAA bubble team had Mahurin returned.
Late Breaking News
- The news that Josh Smith was eligible immediately didn't break until after I finished my rankings. With a full season of Smith you can move the Hoyas up to 27th in my projections. But as many people have noted, because of his conditioning, it still isn't clear how much Smith will play. The downside risk for the Hoyas remains real. However, I do think that it is a major break that Smith will be around from the start of the season. The Hoya offense is a nuanced system that depends on precise cuts and passes, and integrating Smith mid-season would have been much more difficult.
- I had already assumed Joseph Young would be eligible for Oregon so their ranking is not affected by that news. It is clear that the transfer combination of Mike Moser and Young could be one of the best inside-outside combinations in the country. But I want to offer several cautionary tales. Ryan Harrow, Trey Ziegler, and Aaric Murray were three transfers that received a ton of hype last summer, and they were all such poor fits in the new environment, they have all moved on again. We've seen teams bring in a bunch of transfers and live up to expectations (like Iowa St.), but we have also seen teams take in a lot of transfer and disappoint (like Missouri last year.) Transfers are high risk players, and that is why my model has such a large range for the Ducks this season.
Dan Hanner vs Ken Pomeroy
Ken Pomeroy also released his preseason rankings on Saturday. While he is rather humble about his algorithm, I think it is important to note how well his system did last season. From a modeling perspective, a more complex system is not always better.
I would argue that the real advantage of my lineup-based system is not the predictive power. The advantage is that by focusing on the lineup, my model has fewer head-scratching conclusions. For example, Ken's team level model has Miami at 62nd this year. With basically everyone in last year's rotation gone and Angel Rodriguez electing not to apply for a transfer waiver, that's an extremely optimistic prediction. But that prediction is based on how well Miami did last season, not any reasonable evaluation of the current roster. The same can probably be said of Minnesota at No. 35. The Gophers had strong margin-of-victory numbers last year, so Ken's model loves them again this season. But my model sees that the Gophers made a substantial downgrade in the front-court and added an unproven coach. My model based on the current lineup has Miami at No. 102 and Minnesota at No. 63, and I think that's much closer to what I have seen in most expert rankings.
But while Ken's model can cause us to scratch our heads at certain results, do not overlook his predictions. The last five seasons of data are a very strong predictor in the aggregate. (If a team had a great offense before it tends to have better facilities, higher caliber recruits, and better coaches today.) And when the results of both our models agree, those are probably the strongest predictions of all.

Our stay in Chateau Inn & Suites was absolutely amazing. The entire decor of the main dining room was so welcoming and cozy, especially with the warm fireplace and cookies awaiting us. We chose a $20.00 upgrade per night for the suite with a jacuzzi, which I thought was completely worth it. Coincidentally, we were given room number 8, which so happened to be our anniversary date (by then, we were completely sold!). The staff was great and very responsive to whatever we needed. The suite was very nice and comfortable. Also, we highly recommend going for a bike ride along the shore and around this cute little neighborhood. Overall, we loved our two night stay here and would definitely love to come back again.

Defendant Tom Hayden revisits the famed trial of the Chicago 7 in this in-depth look at one of the most bizarre court cases ever carried out in America.
It was the closing chapter of one of the most troubling events of the '60s the brutal riots of the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago. Eight of the radical leaders including Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin and Tom Hayden were accused of "crossing state lines with intent to incite a riot, and conspiracy to violate that law." When it ended, one of the defendants had been severed from the case and the "Chicago 7" trial made its mark as the most chaotic and divisive political trial in American history. Trace the incredible events of this landmark case through incredible footage, contemporary news accounts, and interviews with the men who were there including defendant Tom Hayden and attorney William Kunstler. From Judge Hoffman's order to bind and gag defendant Bobby Seale to the ultimate acquittal of all the defendants on all the charges, this is the definitive examination of a landmark case that defined an era.

Cobb Cole attorney, Michael J. Woods, elected 85th President of the Volusia County Bar Association
Cobb Cole Partner, Michael J. Woods, was sworn in as the 85th President of the Volusia County Bar Association at the VCBA's annual luncheon held at Daytona International Speedway. He succeeds Immediate Past President R. Brooks Casey and will serve as President for one year.
Mr. Woods was sworn in by Seventh Judicial Circuit Court Judge, Robert A. Sanders, Jr., himself a former President of the VCBA. Mr. Woods graduated from the University of Florida in 2000 with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. While attending law school at the University of Florida Levin College of Law, Mr. Woods clerked in the office of the University Vice President and General Counsel for two years. After graduating Cum Laude in 2004, he began his practice with Cobb Cole in Daytona Beach. Mr. Woods is now a partner and works from the firm's DeLand office, practicing in the areas of land use, zoning, local government and administrative law.
In addition to serving on the VCBA board, Mr. Woods also serves as the Immediate Past President of the DeLand Area Chamber of Commerce, Past Chair of the West Volusia Young Professionals Group, board member of the Volusia Building Industry Alliance, board member for the Central Florida Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and is the former President of the House Next Door Board of Directors.
Cobb Cole attorney, Chelsea Sims, appointed to Volusia County Bar Association Young Lawyer's Board
Cobb Cole Associate, Chelsea Sims, was recently appointed to the newly formed Board of Directors for the Volusia County Bar Association's Young Lawyer's Division. The term of office will be one year. The Young Lawyer's Division has been a fixture for a number of years with the VCBA, but a separate board was created this year to focus on programming and educational opportunities for those attorneys new to the profession.
Ms. Sims joined Cobb Cole in 2013 as an associate in the Environmental and Land Use Department. Ms. Sims practices primarily in the areas of environmental law and land use law, but she also practices business and corporate law as well as some civil litigation including employment law matters.
Ms. Sims received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Ecosystem Science and Policy and Political Science with a minor in Spanish from the University of Miami in 2010. She received her Juris Doctor from the University of Florida School of Law in 2013 with a Certificate in Environmental and Land Use Law. While attending the University of Florida School of Law, Ms. Sims participated in the Environmental Moot Court Team; was President of the Environmental Law Organization, GreenLAW; and was Co-Chair of the annual Public Interest Environmental Conference held at the law school. Currently, Ms. Sims is a member of the Surfcoast Chapter of the Florida Planning and Zoning Association, the Volusia County Association for Responsible Development, the Volusia Flagler Association for Women Lawyers, the Volusia County Young Professionals Group, and serves on the Board of Directors at PACE Center for Girls Volusia-Flagler.
Cobb Cole Attorney, Katherine Hurst Miller, named VFAWL "Woman of the Year"
Cobb Cole attorney Katherine Hurst Miller was given the 2014 "Woman of the Year" Award from the Volusia Flagler Association for Women Lawyers, known as VFAWL. At a luncheon in her honor on May 8, Ms. Miller was recognized for providing friendship and support to other female attorneys in the region, raising the profile of women's leadership, and creating a dialogue on work-life balance issues. Ms. Miller joined an accomplished list of previous recipients of the Woman of the Year Award, including lawyers, judges, doctors, and non-profit leaders. Ms. Miller said she was "delighted and humbled to receive the award and follow in the footsteps of previous award recipients."
Katherine Hurst Miller is a partner at the law firm of Cobb Cole in Daytona Beach. She practices commercial litigation and works in insurance defense, insurance agent defense, condominium and homeowners association law, as well as other contract and tort disputes. She also serves on the Young Lawyers Division Board of Governors for The Florida Bar, the Seventh Judicial Circuit Nominating Commission, and the Stetson Lawyers Alumni Advisory Board. Ms. Miller is a Past President of VFAWL, a Past Representative of Young Lawyers to the Volusia County Bar Association, and a past board member of the Junior League of Daytona Beach. She has been recognized by the Florida Association of Women Lawyers as a Leader in the Law, and by Florida Super Lawyers as a Rising Star.
VFAWL's Woman of the Year is selected by a vote of the board of directors of VFAWL after review of written nominations. Criteria for selection includes serving the people of Volusia and/or Flagler counties; making substantial contributions to an area of importance to women; integrating a work area or profession traditionally reserved for men; outstanding service in her chosen profession; achieving recognition in her field; serving as an example to other women. Candidates need not be an attorney for award consideration.

Founded in 1997, causemedia, inc. — a SDO certified, minority woman-owned firm — is a full service social marketing agency specializing in innovative marketing and targeted outreach to diverse audiences. In 2012, causemedia, inc. established MORE Advertising to reach new audiences, in more ways. See our transition.
Successfully using social media to promote an organization isn't easy. As we all know, social media requires time, commitment, resources, and a well-developed plan. Sometimes, even all of this isn't enough for an organization to achieve social media success. Therefore, it's important to study how other organizations use social media in order to learn what to do (and what not to do). Here are three nonprofits that do social media well.
1. American Red Cross
The American Red Cross is actively engaged on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Flickr. The organization also has its own blog. But it's not the number of social accounts that make the American Red Cross successful in social media. It's the organization's ability to create an active and open social community. The American Red Cross Facebook page is an open forum where fans can engage and share. The organization encourages conversation by asking questions, highlighting volunteers, posting disaster relief updates, and providing useful disaster preparedness information. What can we learn from American Red Cross? Your online community is more likely to respond to and share information that interests them. Content should have personality and new content should be posted frequently.
2. charity: water
Only six years old, the organization charity: water has used social media to help spread awareness about its mission to bring clean water to communities in developing nations. The organization has used Facebook, Twitter, and its blog to show completed water projects and encourage other to join the cause. The photos and videos posted focus on the impact charity: water projects have on the people living in these areas. What can we learn from charity: water? Story telling is an important part of social media. Posting photos and videos of projects related to your cause can help tell your organization's story. Photos and videos can also help your audience emotionally connect to your cause. You'll be more likely to receive a volunteer's time, advocacy, or a donation when you need it.
3. Livestrong
Livestrong knows how to build relationships with its supporters through social media. The organization is heavily involved in its social community – promptly responding to nearly every post and comment on its Facebook and Twitter pages. The best part is that the responses are human, not automated. What can we learn from Livestrong? Responding to all posts and comments on social platforms (and responding with a human voice) can help build a connection with your audience. Also, it lets them know they're appreciated.
Do you have any other social media successful nonprofits to add to the list? Please leave your comments below.
It's official. After months of speculation, Facebook Timeline is now available for Pages. So what does this mean for your organization? Although it may be a pain to figure out another Facebook layout, Timeline can be a breath of fresh air for your organization's Facebook Page. Timeline's visually-engaging layout allows organizations to tell their story through compelling images and a colorful history.
Here are three things to keep in mind when setting up Timeline for your organization's Page.
The cover photo is the new landing page. With the old Facebook Page layout, organizations created landing pages to enhance the user experience. With Timeline, the cover photo is the landing page. A visually powerful cover photo makes a great first impression and can tell your organization's story.
Tell your story. Highlight important historic events and milestones for your organization. Telling your story can help create a deeper emotional connection between you and your fans. Livestrong does a great job of using Timeline to share their story. Also, take some time to review past posts and photos in your Timeline to make sure everything fits into your story (delete anything that doesn't).
Update your strategy. Timeline for Pages offers features that weren't available in the old layout. For example, with Timeline you can now highlight important posts by starring them (this makes the image twice as large as regular posts). You can also select a post to appear on the top left spot of the Timeline feed for seven days. Figure out how your organization can leverage these new features.
Not ready for the layout change? Don't worry; you have until March 30 to prepare your Timeline. What do you think of Timeline for Pages? Have you already implemented your organization's Timeline? Please leave your comments below.
Who owns your social media identity? A recent lawsuit between a mobile phone company and a former employee over Twitter followers brings this question to light. The line between personal and professional social media usage has become blurred. A social media policy is the clear solution to this problem. Simple steps can be taken to protect your nonprofit's social identity.
1. Create a clear social media policy for staff

Chris Karns
Few artists who identify as a producer and DJ have as impressive a resume as Chris Karns. Trusted by some of the biggest names in music to set the stage with his blazing turntablism skills, Karns is following up his World DMC Championship title with a packed schedule of party rocking. Having wrapped a highly praised tour with hip-hop superstar Yelawolf in late 2012, Karns has enjoyed an undeniable reputation long-sealed by his live and studio work with some of music's most popular names: Bun B., Kid Rock, Paul Wall, Bassnectar and Travis Barker. This is not a man who burns a few CDs, fades tracks in and out and calls it a day, but rather an accomplished master of his craft.
At a time when the word "DJ" no longer carries with it the weight of a once vibrant vinyl culture, it's a relief there are passionate and talented artists like Chris. Since his early days inspired by his musician father and spinning on a $20 turntable, he's rocked more than a dozen overseas tours and played everywhere from Singapore to London to Japan. Honored with the highest possible DJ title in 2011 at the DMC World Championships, Karns is known as one of the fastest scratchers and beat jugglers in the game, incorporating drum machines and other components into sets stacked with raw energy. Whether he's at home producing beats for renowned rappers (see 2010?s Required Taste album with Othello) or in front of insatiable crowds weaving together a versatile set of hip-hop, dubstep, house or trap, Karns is an obvious natural who's set the bar high for himself and, by proxy, his contemporaries.
Called a "gifted turntablist" by Rapzilla and a man with a "constant, keen ear for musicality" by Amoeba Records, you can immediately hear Chris' taste making skill for sleuthing out new sounds. But you might also hear the vintage serrated guitar riffs of Hendrix, soulful vocal samples by Stevie Wonder, or the unmistakeable funk of Sly and The Family Stone. It's a unique juxtaposition that presents itself as the true stamp of a music lover, compounded by years of passion, commitment and experience, and it's this kind of artist who will undoubtedly take DJing to it's natural next level.
"I'm proud that I've been able to envision myself doing things and achieve them, whether it be at the DMC or playing huge festivals," Karns surmises. "I know good things will continue to happen if I work hard and do my music for the right reasons — the love of music itself."
