At Belly Dance Maternity we know the importance of a perfect bra. That doesn't change when you're expecting - in fact, it is even more important. That's why we carry a great selection of carefully curated maternity bras for our customers. These bras offer support, beauty, style, functionality, and comfort.
When you are pregnant, your breasts will change shape with the rest of you. This is where maternity bras come in. The perfect bra will fulfill a number of different purposes; not only will it give you a great deal of support, it can also be gentle on your skin when you are feeling sensitive, or it can work with pads for when you are nursing. Many of our bras are designed to be worn not just during the pregnancy, but for many months after, allowing you to nurse comfortably and give your body time to regain its former shape.
Just because your maternity bra has to be comfortable does not mean that you have to give up style. Don't feel like you are limited to plain beige or white. Browse bolder colors, a glamorous black bra or a pale dusky rose. If you want something simple, choose a seamless taupe bra for support that you can wear under absolutely everything. The options are many - take a look at all the great pieces and you're sure to find something you can't live without.
When you are in the market for maternity clothes, don't forget about what goes underneath them. You need support, of course, and you need fabric and construction that is gentle on your skin. Plenty of expecting mothers get more sensitive the closer they get to delivery, so choose a bra that will take care of you. With our wide selection, you won't be without great choices. Read More...
Transition from Maternity to Nursing with our Stylish Bras
Pregnancy is an exciting time for any woman. In addition to all of the new baby items that you will be bringing into your home, you will need to invest in maternity clothing that will be durable, stylish, and will allow you to get the most wear out of each item as possible. At Belly Dance Maternity we stock our virtual racks with maternity bras that are accommodating to changing body sizes during pregnancy, as well as wearable and highly functional during nursing. Our bras are designed to help you make the transition from normal lingerie to maternity bras, and then to nursing bras. Many of them accomplish all three feats!
Comfortable and Accommodating During Pregnancy
Our maternity bras are specially designed to adjust comfortably to a pregnant woman's growing form. Our bras will give you the support you need during pregnancy, and they are comfortable enough to ensure that you won't spend all day tugging or adjusting the straps. Of course comfort is only part of the equation - our selection also brings plenty of great style and sexy construction.
Stylish and Chic
Just because you are an expectant mother does not mean that you have to give up your beautiful clothes or your sartorial confidence. Our maternity bras are sleek and stylish, and are available in a wide array of colors and designs. They are designed with the modern mom in mind, and no matter what your size, there is guaranteed to be a bra for you that will not only provide a comfy fit, but will also enable you to look glamorous through all nine months. Now what about when you need to think about transitioning to post-partum nursing? We've got you covered there too!
Easy to Wear Nursing Bras
Nursing bras might sound like elaborate, hard to wear items, but our selection of stylish and functional nursing bras are completely the opposite. Designed with the "on the go" mom in mind, they are designed to allow mothers to sleekly and easily nurse their child, without sacrificing style, comfort, or support. Clever construction and easy to use straps and hooks make it simple to breastfeed, while sophisticated design makes it even easier to look and feel great.
Transitioning Back to your Normal Size
Most of our maternity bras and nursing bras utilize forgiving, durable fabric, which means that the bras will fit to your changing size as you transition back to your former shape in the months following your pregnancy. With our spectacular collection of bras, you will never find yourself in a situation where you cannot find a bra in your wardrobe that accommodates your shape.
Finding a bra that fits your changing body and suits your needs as a nursing mother is incredibly important. With our large, varied selection, you can find a multitude of fits, styles, colors and designs that will work with just about every outfit in your ever expanding wardrobe. Whether you have just found out that you are expecting or are a nursing mother who is looking for a bra that works, we have the perfect solution to your unique needs.
Maternity Bras: A Must-Have for Pregnant Women
Having a baby doesn't mean you must give up your style or your body. But you will have to make sure you have the right basic structural garments like maternity bras and lingerie, which help you stay comfortable and supported during your term. At Belly Dance Maternity we've made it a priority to provide our customers with the very best in designer maternity bras - there are few items of clothing more important to a pregnant women. Our beautiful, comfortable, well-built bras not only appeal to your personal sense of style, but are necessary to help decrease the skin irritation and sensitivity brought on by pregnancy. The additional boost to your self-confidence is simply an added bonus!
Women everywhere are rejoicing over the technological innovations behind maternity bras. Unlike other bras, which may become too tight during pregnancy (further causing discomfort in that area), maternity bras by Belly Dance offer great support and contour for your changing body shape. Regular bras are also difficult to manage while breast-feeding. Because you often have to cradle your crying child in one hand and adjust your clothing with your other hand, breast-feeding with a normal bra can be quite difficult. Belly Dance maternity bras offer options for breast-feeding mothers, further easing the stress of pregnancy and motherhood.
Before you start stocking your wardrobe with great maternity dresses, tops and bottoms, make sure you get the right maternity bras and underwear to serve as a comfortable foundation for the rest of your wardrobe.
Q and A
When should I buy nursing bras?
We recommend buying nursing bras two to three weeks before your due date. However, just buy one or two before the baby. You can wear it in the hospital and then grab some more later when you know what works best for you.
Why are there so many different nursing bra options?
Like your pre-pregnancy bras, there are different bras for different occasions. We carry a wide variety, whether you are looking for something a little sexier or something to sleep in comfortably.
Are there any cute nursing bras on the market?
Absolutely, just because you are nursing doesn't mean you should sacrifice style. We carry pretty and feminine nursing options.
Roughly how many nursing bras should I have?
There's no specific number to shoot for, but plan to have several so you aren't stuck in a pinch in between laundry loads.
How does nursing bra sizing work?
The majority of our nursing bras are sized from S to XL. Our team will be happy to help you find the perfect fit for you.

Best Uses
Ample coverage for table but would like to see holes on the bottom for extra tie down for the high wind days and just a bit longer on the bottom. Very happy with the purchase
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Good Enough Fit
- Doesn't Last
Best Uses
Purchased to cover round table and chairs so we could leave them outdoors in our mild pacific NW winters. Within 10 months the cover had UV degraded and ripped multiple places as well as simply disintegrated on top portion and is now completely useless. Recommend to not waste $40 each season and invest in a better cover.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Easy to use
- Fell Apart After One Year
Best Uses
- Not For Use Outdoors
We had our old metal dining set powder coated and it looked great. To protect it, we bought this cover. It worked great on our small table and chairs for one year, but after a year, it is so destabilized by UV damage from the sun, that it is falling apart when we touch it. Will be ordering the next step up.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- 1 Plastic Toggle
- Thin Cord To Secure Cover
Best Uses
The thin cord used to secure bottom of cover is too thin, with 1 plastic toggle. this cover needs grommets and a thicker cord. I had to use rocks to keep it from flying away.
- Light Weight
- Will Not Fit 5 Chair Set
Best Uses
We have a 5 chair patio set. The cover would not go over the full set. It covered snugly when we removed one of the chairs. It has a tie string at bottom to secure but cover fit snugly enough that I do not think it would blow off without it. The material is light weight and easy to handle but seems to be durable enough to protect the patio set.
- Drawstring Is Useless
- Too Short
Best Uses
The drawstring is useless, it does not pull easily and does not serve the purpose it is suppose to.
Bought this product years ago. That product had grommets around the base so that you could tie it to your furniture preventing it from blowing off. This updated product has only one pull tie at the base that doesn't work. Every day i have to go find it in the yard. Don't make the mistake i did . Don't buy it. I'm planning on sending it back of a refund.
- Drawstring Design Poor
- material too stiff
- Needs tie downs
Best Uses
This table cover has no tie downs to affix to chairs and the drawstring does not easily pull the cover in tight enough.
- Fits beautifully
- Heavy duty
- Protected For Winter
Best Uses
- Barbeque
- Porch Furniture
we've been meaning to cover our porch furniture for a couple of years now but hadn't found anything as durable or good looking as this - feel really good looking out at the deck & seeing all our furniture protected at last!
- Economic
- Good Quality
- Great Color
- Great size
- Sturdy
Best Uses
I was surprised by the quality of the product. When I first opened the package, I thought the material was cheap. But, to the contrary, looks can be deceiving. I purchased the round dinette set, the stacking chair cover, the 6' bench cover and the cushion bag. All have withstood whatever the weather would bring--and we've gone through Superstorm Sandy with wind, rain, and snow. I would definitely buy his item again!

Marcelle At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; Marcelle provides complete ingredient lists on its Web site; drugstores that retail this brand provide testers, including makeup testers; almost every product is fragrance-free; some good cleansers and makeup removers; impressive eyeshadows; great lipsticks and lip glosses.
Weaknesses: The hypoallergenic claims are misleading because this claim isn't regulated and there are no standards governing its use; formaldehyde-releasing preservatives not recommended for those with sensitive skin; the anti-acne products are mostly alcohol, which is damaging to skin and can increase oil production, making acne worse; dated moisturizer formulas; some greasy cleansers; a general lack of state-of-the-art ingredients; foundations with sunscreen do not provide sufficient UVA protection; average to poor mineral makeup; no shades for those with tan or darker complexions; mostly lackluster mascaras.
Nestled among the flashier lines filling the shelves and display cases in Canadian drugstores is this unassuming, attractively priced skin-care and makeup product line. The packaging is simple and the message clear: These are "hypoallergenic and perfume-free," ergo great for sensitive skin. In reality the claim that these products are hypoallergenic isn't accurate in the least—much like Almay—but that claim is Marcelle's major selling point.
First, the term "hypoallergenic" is not regulated; that is, there are no standards in place for that term so a cosmetics company can attribute hypoallergenic to any product they want, regardless of the ingredients. The second point is that even the most scrupulous company, even if it takes the greatest care about what ingredients it includes in its products, simply cannot know what your skin may be allergic to. Marcelle showcases the elimination of "perfume," (aka fragrance) but fragrance is not the only potential culprit in a cosmetic formulation. And third, allergic reactions are not the primary problems that a cosmetic can impart to skin. Irritation is far more pernicious and, indeed, many of Marcelle's products contain ingredients that have a high potential for causing irritation, such as alcohol, sodium lauryl sulfate, and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives (e.g., imidazolidinyl urea, DMDM hydantoin, and Quaternium 15; one of their products even contains hydrochloric acid. (Can you believe that?!) Irritating skin-care ingredients not only cause free-radical damage but also lead to an increase in oil production in the pore and break down collagen.
Aside from the erroneous claims, Marcelle hasn't kept up to speed with their formulas in comparison to several other lines at the drugstore. You can easily find moisturizers from other lines that have far more elegant textures and formulas teeming with beneficial ingredients just not from Marcelle. Almost every product Marcelle sells is woefully out of date; their rudimentary formulas are akin to using a typewriter instead of a computer.
Color-wise, you'll find the foundation, concealer, and powder shade ranges are limited to those with fair to medium skin tones. Although it's great that the Marcelle displays provide testers for the makeup, much of it is better left alone. There are some high points, particularly the powder eyeshadows, lipstick, and lip glosses, but the mascaras are barely exciting, the pencils all need sharpening, and the powder blush fails to impress.
All told, Marcelle is best viewed as a line with a few sleeper products worth checking out at price points that won't stress most consumers' budgets, although a few dollars more will get you infinitely better options.

A new show with classic characters from the Lantz era, joined by an assortment of new ones.
Cartoon character Woody Woodpecker sporting a makeover, (similar to the one he had from 1944-1949) courtesy of Universal Studios animators, appeared on the Fox Kids Network in new broadcasts which began airing Saturday May 8, 1999.
Forty new cartoons, the first new Woody adventures since 1979, were produced for Fox. Each new program consisted of three seven-minute cartoons.
Emmy nominee Bob Jaques, known for his work on the popular cartoon series The Ren and Stimpy Show, produced and directed the series. Jaques was joined by writer and story editor Jim Gomez, who has worked on Ren and Stimpy and Tiny Toon Adventures.
"We are preserving (Woody's) great legacy by introducing a hip, contemporary Woody to a whole new generation around the world," Nancy Steingard, executive vice president of Universal Cartoon Studios, said in early 1999.
Billy West, who has worked on such animated pictures as Space Jam as well as Ren and Stimpy, voiced the new Woody. Also providing voices were Mark Hamill of Star Wars, Tress MacNeill of The Simpsons and Nika Futterman of Suddenly Susan.

The Continuing Power of Karl Rove
BILL MOYERS: If you want to see the personification of how the Citizens United decision is playing out in this campaign, look no further than Karl Rove. Yes, that Karl Rove, the political strategist once known as Bush's Brain. Rove was a big winner in 2000, when the court's conservative majority gave the presidency to his client, George W. Bush. Rove went with Bush to the White House as his political czar, but left seven years later as damaged goods. He was enmeshed in the president's failures and in scandals of his own, including millions of missing emails, congressional hearings, and a near indictment over leaks that outed covert CIA agent Valerie Plame and exposed her to danger.
But then the five conservatives on the Supreme Court – three of whom had been appointed by Rove's two Bush patrons, Bush the First and Bush the Second – came down with the Citizens United decision, giving Karl Rove a second lease on life as a bagman – the biggest in town.
You could see him at the Republican National Convention, backslapping and glad-handing plutocrats and politicos. He told a private breakfast meeting during the convention that the super PAC he helped create, American Crossroads, plans to spend $200 million dollars on the presidential race and another $100 million dollars on this year's Senate and House campaigns.
Then there's his affiliated nonprofit, Crossroads GPS, that's a 501(c)4 where all donations are anonymous, perfectly cozy and covert. Just a few days ago, Crossroads GPS bought $2.6 million worth of TV ads in Nevada, Ohio and Virginia, three states where Republicans hope to grab Senate seats, and bring them that much closer to the permanent GOP majority of Karl Rove's dreams.
Bush's Brain has become Boss Rove, virtuoso of what BusinessWeek calls "partisan money management," the undisputed maestro of the politics of plutocracy.
How does he do it? Investigative journalist Craig Unger has been on the case for years. The author of two books on the Bush dynasty, he's now written this account of an astonishing comeback, "BOSS ROVE: Inside Karl Rove's Secret Kingdom of Power."
Craig, welcome to the show.
CRAIG UNGER: Thanks for having me, Bill.
BILL MOYERS: You've taken on Karl Rove in this latest book. What prompted that?
CRAIG UNGER: It was really, once the Citizens United came down, I saw him go into action. And I could see what was happening was not being followed by the mainstream press. And I thought, "Here is going to be one of the great untold stories of the 2012 election." And we saw it start to play out in 2010. And the Republicans won, I believe, with 63 seats in that. It was a tremendous victory for them.
And this was at a time when Rove was supposedly out of it. And there he was behind the scenes with these super PACs, with American Crossroads. And I could see that he was preparing himself for 2012. And not just 2012, but beyond. That he was something other than people had thought he was. Most people thought he was a creature of the Bush family. And I think he's a force that's more powerful than that.
BILL MOYERS: I actually mapped the connections where you place Rove. From the Republicans in Congress to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which is the largest business lobby in America. To multibillionaires like the Koch Brothers, to the Tea Party, to the Christian Right, Ralph Reed. To Grover Norquist. To the National Rifle Association. To Rupert Murdoch, the Wall Street Journal. Fox News, to the super PACs, by which he directs multimillions of dollars. How does he hold it all together? What's his secret?

The ONLY scenes not in 3D are the real world scenes. Once Sam sets foot on to the Grid it's in 3D throughout till it goes back to the real world at the end. One of my favourite movies of the year on Blu Ray, picture quality and sound quality (Especially the soundtrack!!) is excellent both in 2D and 3D.

Film Review: 'Skyfall'
Date: November 14, 2012
by: Pam Nadon | Film Critic
What's the secret behind the enduring lure of James Bond a.k.a. 007? For five decades the cultural icon has been transcending generations simply because he's always the right choice. In the latest addition to the franchise, "Skyfall," it's Daniel Craig (his third time playing Bond) and he's pure perfection personified.
The first 15 minutes of the film are so adrenaline-pumping, those weak of heart may want to keep their nitroglycerin handy. Bond is chasing a man through the crowded streets of Istanbul and ends up on top of a moving train. 'M' (Judi Dench) commands another agent in pursuit (Naomie Harris) to take a risky shot, Bond takes the hit and 'M' writes his obituary.
But, of course, 007's mortality has not been compromised and he decides to take his time before resurfacing. Holed-up in some sweaty not-so-exotic locale, he shoots scorpion (live) shots at a sleazy bar, looking extremely rough hewn.
Soon, duty calls and back in London 'M' has been called on the carpet by her superior (Ralph Fiennes) for leaking a hard drive containing a list of operational NATO agents. 'M' assigns 007 to locate and take down the culprit responsible.
Enter the nefarious nemesis, Silva (Javier Bardem), a homoerotic cyberterrorist. Way beyond creepy, Silva has an interesting history with 'M' and diabolical plans for Bond and his associates.
Sam Mendes ("American Beauty") is the first Oscar winner to direct a Bond film and it shows. There's a vast difference between the somewhat disappointing "Quantum of Solace" and "Skyfall." The writing (Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan), cinematography (Roger Deakins) and magnificent Oscar-laden cast put "Skyfall" at the top of the list for best Bond films ever made.
The film also gets up close and personal with its main characters. We get a never-before glimpse into Bond's tragic childhood. On an emotional level, some of MI6 employees are in the throes of becoming obsolete. They're aging in a world which is rapidly changing and, perhaps, no longer requires their services. Is old-fashioned human intelligence becoming passe?
Not if producers extraordinaire Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are in charge. They recognize the need for exotic destinations, slick soundtracks, balancing the past and present and evolving. They also get the fact that the villain needs to be as important as Bond.
But most importantly, James Bond has to be perfectly cast and let go before even a whisper of losing his charm surfaces. Daniel Craig has signed on for two more sequels and at the end of "Skyfall" we're informed that, "James Bond will return." It's a comforting reassurance.

Edwardian Natural Saltwater Pearl Necklace
Natural uncultured pearls are among the rarest of the gem world. Natural pearls have no bead inside and were not aided by man in any way. That being taken into consideration, most pearls are judged by how the pearl is seen in relation to specific standards of roundness, surface smoothness, the color (often, but not always the degree of whiteness), sheen or luster and when in a strand, the uniformity.
Using those criteria, the pearls in this necklace are truly exceptional in every category. Natural pearls of such quality are extremely difficult to find. Graduated in size from 6.18 mm to 2.46 mm, each of the cream colored gems is individually hand knotted between every pearl. The strand is well matched in color and has fine lustrous pearls which are round except for a few just slightly off round (very hard to detect with the eye). A delicate yet strong platinum clasp is marquise shaped, engraved and set with three (3) old European cut diamonds of a total estimated .21 carats. For added security a hidden safety latch is beneath the clasp.
The necklace is accompanied by a Gemological Institute of America (GIA) certificate stating that all pearls are natural saltwater except one cultured pearl – the smallest pearl next to the clasp with the tongue.
Date: Circa 1900.
Measurements: 19 inches (48.3 cm) in total length by 1/4 of an inch (0.8 cm) in width. Clasp is 1/2 of an inch (1.2 cm) in length by 1/4 of an inch (0.8 cm) in width. Weight of 8.0 grams (5.1 dwt).
Condition: Excellent.
Note: Diamonds were not removed to preserve the integrity of the setting. Weights are approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights.

Ever wished you could sail through the sky? Designer Damien Grossemy wants to make that dream a reality with his Zep'lin, a flying sailboat designed for Renault. The vertically-built Zep'lin concept features solar panels and on-board lithium ion batteries to store extra energy as it soars up above.
According to the designer, Renault is planning a race around the world in a zeppelin in 2015 as a promotional tool for its line of electric cars. The Zep'lin is Grossemy's attempt to build a light, aerodynamic structure for the race. No word on whether Grossemy's design will actually be chosen, but the electric vehicle looks like a fun ride to us! Check out a video of the Zep'lin in action below.

@777rak, solar airplanes exists, we'd just need one with a wing span measured in miles to be commercially viable.
Zeppelins are the future, as is sale ships. We might have to adjust our expectations on how fast we plan on getting to our vacation destinations in the future.

Wow looks like something from Star Wars. What next solar airplanes?

9/16 in Yankee History
The red-letter day –
1939: The Yankees clinch their 4th successive pennant, and their 11th in club history, with a 10-3 win over Detroit.
On other 16ths of September…
2009: A brand-new member joins the pie party: An early 2-0 lead over Toronto on 1st inning RBI by Mark Teixeira and Hideki Matsui evaporates in the middle innings with Chad Gaudin on the mound. Toronto have a 4-2 lead when Matsui's two-run homer ties it up in 8th. Johnny Damon strokes
a single to start the bottom of the ninth, moves to second on a
fielder's choice, and scores on a walkoff single off the bat of Francisco Cervelli for the 5-4 Yankee victory. Mariano Rivera's appearance in the 9th earns him his third win of the year.
2008: In action against Chicago, Derek Jeter eclipses Lou Gehrig's mark for hits at Yankee Stadium. Andy Pettitte's disappointing year continues, though, as he loses to the pale Hoase, 6-2. .
2006: At the Stadium, the Red Sox and Yankees split a pair, with the
Sox winning the first game 5-2. New York take the nitecap 7-5. Derek
Jeter has hits in each game to run his consecutive game hitting streak
to 25.
1997: The Yankees take a pair from the Red Sox' winning 2-0 and 4-3. Andy Pettitte pitches 8 innings in the opener' striking out a career-high 12. Willie Banks is the winner in the nitecap with 6 2/3 innings of work.
1996: Backed by two 3-run homers from Tim Raines, who is celebrating his 37th birthday' Jimmy Key stops the Blue Jays 10-0 at the SkyDome. Raines' second homer, a 457 ft. blast to straightaway center, is the longest hit
by a Yankee this year. The Yanks are now 3 games up in the AL East.
1978: With 55'091 looking on' the Yankees snap a 2-2 tie with a 9th inning triple by Willie Randolph and a sacrifice fly by Thurman Munson to beat the Red Sox 3-2. New York now lead by 3 1/2 games. The Yanks open the scoring with a Reggie Jackson 2-run blast in the 5th. Both starters' Catfish Hunter and Mike Torrez, go the distance.
1961: At Detroit' Roger Maris connects for #57' off Frank Lary' to stay a game ahead of Babe Ruth's 1927 pace. But Lary wins his 21st' 10-4' over Ralph Terry, with help from Norm Cash, who belts a homer – his 37th – and a triple. Al Kaline adds 4 hits and a sac fly.
1960: The Orioles (83-58) and Yankees (82-57) open a crucial 4-game series
with the O's just .002 in back of the Bombers.. Hector Lopez and Roger Maris swat homers to back Whitey Ford's 4-2 win over the Birds. The 2 runs off Ford are the first the Birds
have scored off him at the Stadium in 33.2 innings. Bobby Shantz mops up for Whitey in the 9th.
1958: Frank 'the Yankee Killer' Lary is the third pitcher to beat them 7 times in the same season' as the
Tiger ace tops them 4-2. Ed Walsh (9-1 in 1908) and Ed Cicotte (7-1
in 1916) were the others. But Lary sets the AL record for most wins in a
season against a pennant winner. The NL record is 8' by Bob Buhl, who beat the Dodgers 8 times in 1956 while pitching for the Braves.
Off the field, former Yankee star (and AL batting champion) George 'Snuffy' Stirnweiss is killed in a train wreck in Red Bank' NJ.
1956: In twinbill action at Cleveland's Municipal Stadium' Mickey Mantle launches an 8th inning shot'
his 49th of the year' off the facade of the upper deck in right' matching a blast by Ted Williams earlier in the year' but Early Wynn hangs on for a 4-3 nitecap win for the home side.The Yankees win the
opener 10-3' though, to clinch at least a tie for the pennant and eliminate the Tribe from the race. Bob Lemon loses his bid for his 20th win.
1955: The Yankees' trailing the Indians by a 1/2 game with 11 to play' open a critical series with the Red Sox. The Yankees take a 3-0 lead' but are behind 4-3 in the 9th. Hank Bauer then hits a homer off reliever Ellis Kinder to tie it' and with 2 outs' Yogi Berra cracks the game-winning round-tripper to win it 5-4. When Detroit beat Cleveland' 3-0' the Yanks move into first to stay. Mickey Mantle tears a hamstring muscle running out a bunt. He will make just 2
pinch-hit appearances in September' and he will go to bat in the WS just
10 times
1951: At the Stadium' Joe DiMaggio's long triple off Bob Feller scores two runs in the 5th, and Allie Reynolds holds on for a 5-1 Yankee win. New York take over first place for good by a margin of .003 points over Cleveland.
1950: Rookie hurler Whitey Ford tosses a 6-hitter to give the Yankees the rubber game in Detroit' 8-1 and move them back into first place.
Joe DiMaggio hits his 30th HR and the Yanks score 7 runs in the 9th as Ford
cruises to his 7th win without a loss. The Red Sox will follow the Bombers into Detroit and sweep three from the Tigers.
1948; In Detroit' Joe DiMaggio bags out his 300th career homer, off Freddie Hutchinson' becoming the 8th player in MLB history to attain the mark. It is the only score for the New Yorkers as they lose 2-1. The
Yankees take the nitecap' 8-4' with Joe Page (below) the winner in relief.
1945: At the Stadium, the Browns and Yankees split a pair' the Bombers losing the opener' 6-2' to Bob Muncrief. Vern Stephens belts a 3-run homer and drives in 4 runs. Leadoff hitter Pete Gray is 1-for-4' collecting his safety off reliever Tiny Bonham. It is the
last major league hit for the one-armed outfielder as he goes 0-for-3 in
the nitecap' a 5-4 win for New York. Spud Chandler' the winning pitcher' drives in 3 runs.
1944: The Yankees lose to the A's, 6-3, to drop into second place, a 1/2 game behind the Browns. Bill Bevens (below) takes the loss for the Bombers.
1940: Rookie Johnny Lucadello (below) of the St. Louis Browns homers from each side
of the plate against Yankees in a 16-4 Browns romp. Only Wally Shang' in 1916' had accomplished the same in the AL. Mickey Mantle will be the next AL player to do it, in 1955. Today's blasts are the
only home runs Lucadello will hit all year. The Browns sweep by winning the
nitecap' dropping the Yankees 3 1/2 games in back of the Indians.
1937: Lefty Gomez allows only three hits as the Yankees roll to an 8-0 win over Cleveland. Gomez has now won 19 games' while the Yankees increase their lead to 10 1/2 games over Detroit.
1922: Pennant fever rages in St. Louis' as the Yankees come to town with a half-game lead Bob Shawkey outpitches Urban Shocker 2-1' as George Sisler ties Ty Cobb's 1911 record by hitting in his 40th straight game. While chasing a fly ball in the 9th' New York outfielder Whitey Witt is hit in the head and knocked cold by a soda bottle thrown from the
bleachers. Ban Johnson will initially offer a $1'000 reward for the name
of the culprit. Then' to calm the crowds' the AL offers the
explanation that Witt stepped on the bottle, which then and it flew up and hit him. The
incident leads to a ban on the sale of bottled drinks in ballparks.
1920: Chicago's Dickie Kerr (below) tops the Yankees 8-3' the loss dropping New York to second place behind Cleveland.
1905: The Highlanders find themselves short on infielders, so right fielder Willie Keeler, who is lefthanded' plays second base in both games of a doubleheader with visiting Washington.
The talented Keeler played two games at shortstop for the Giants in 1893.
New York split' winning 5-2 and losing 3-0.

Hello everyone,
My name is Dee and I live in southern Alberta, Canada. I am quite new to Buddhism, and started practicing Vipassana about 8 months ago, and feel as if I've 'come home'. I'm learning about the Dhamma, and am still sorting through the various traditions and teachings, but I like to stay open to any and all ideas about spirituality. I've become very passionate about spirituality and understanding myself and the world, and have been intensely enjoying my journey this past year. I look forward to getting to know many of you and learning about the Dhamma and having many lively discussions.
With Metta,

Upton and Inhofe in POLITICO: Fighting off the war on coal

Fighting off the war on coal
By Rep. Fred Upton and Sen. Jim Inhofe

"When the work underground stops," a TV reporter in Boone County, W.Va., said last Friday, "everything above pays the price." She was reporting that two local coal mines would soon start laying off workers. One was preparing to lay off 116 miners in a matter of weeks, the second had yet to finalize the number to be let go.
This is a situation that has sadly become all too familiar under the Obama administration's war on coal. Alpha Natural Resources Tuesday announced it will be scaling back its coal production, eliminating 1,200 jobs and closing eight mines in Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia. Alpha's chief executive officer, Kevin Crutchfield, lamented "a regulatory environment that's aggressively aimed at constraining the use of coal."
The House on Friday plans to launch a counterattack to the administration's relentless efforts to regulate coal into oblivion, by voting on the Stop the War on Coal Act to prevent more job losses and plant closures. This is a series of bills that aim to stop the Environmental Protection Agency's regulatory assault on the U.S. coal power sector.
The package includes the Energy Tax Prevention Act that we introduced in the House and Senate respectively - and passed the House with bipartisan support. Our legislation would stop the EPA from using the Clean Air Act to impose a costly cap-and-tax agenda that would burden broad sectors of the economy.
Consider, OhioAmerican Energy, this summer announced it would close its coal mining operations in Brilliant, Ohio. It cited "regulatory actions by President Barack Obama and his appointees" as the "entire reason." GenOn announced in February that it would shutter 13 percent of its generating capacity by 2015, again due to new environmental regulations. FirstEnergy announced in January the early retirement of six plants in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland, due to the high cost and uncertainty associated with new EPA regulations.
The list goes on. And the EPA is not only targeting coal mines, it is targeting the most significant source of our affordable electricity, coal-fired power plants. More than 200 coal-based electric generation units are due to be shut down, partly due to the EPA's regulatory assault, accorded to the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity analysis, released this week. The closing of 204 coal units stretches across 25 states and represents 31,000 megawatts of generating capacity. This is the equivalent to turning off the lights across the entire state of Ohio.
There has been a lot of discussion on how close we are to achieving North American Energy Independence by developing our bountiful domestic petroleum resources and partnering with our neighbors in Canada on important infrastructure projects like the Keystone XL Pipeline.
We often take for granted, however, that we are already electricity independent, since we have abundant and reliable resources to power homes and businesses for centuries - unless the Obama EPA gets its way. The Obama administration's "all of the above but nothing from below" energy policy threatens our electricity independence.
It is coal communities like Boone County, which have struggled mightily during this economic downturn. Every time they get knocked down, they get right back up. Unfortunately, the government has now turned into one of the biggest obstacles to their very way of life.
As more plants and mines shutter, more and more folks will continue to struggle. The Stop the War on Coal Act puts jobs first. We are united in our efforts to protect jobs and stand up for those communities paying the price when the work underground stops.
Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.) is chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) is ranking member of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.

Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare form of cancer. It involves white blood cells called B lymphocytes. White blood cells protect the body from infection. HCL gets its name from the tiny hair-like projections that stick out of the surface of these cancer cells. Illness results from the build up of these cancer cells in the bone marrow and spleen.
HCL usually develops slowly over time. Early on, there may not be any symptoms. The cancer cells eventually overgrow the bone marrow. This affects the growth of normal cells such as red blood cells and platelets.
Symptoms may include:
- Abdominal swelling
- Fever
- Easy bruising
- Night sweats
- Swollen lymph nodes
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your bodily fluids and tissues may be tested. This can be done with:
- Blood tests
- Bone marrow biopsy
Images may be taken of your bodily structures. This can be done with a CT scan.
HCL is a slow-growing cancer. As HCL progresses, treatment may include:
- Surgery— A splenectomy may need to be done to remove an enlarged spleen.
- Chemotherapy —This is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. It may be given in many forms. This includes pill, injection, and via a catheter. The drugs enter the bloodstream and travel through the body.
- Medications, such as cladribine, pentostatin, and interferon, are used to fight the hairy cells.
- Blood transfusion —A blood transfusion may be done to treat anemia.
- Antibiotics or other medications to fight infection

Novitec Rosso hatches plans for Ferrari FF
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on Jun 19th, 2012 at 3:44PM
Monotony can be draining, but there are certain forms of it we could get used to. Like being around Ferrari models all day, every day. Sure, they're all two-door, rear-drive sports cars, but they're exciting ones at that. But then comes along the FF to break the mold of monotony with its unique all-wheel drive and four-seat hatchback "shooting brake" bodystyle. Like any others around Ferraris all day, we could imagine the boys at the Novitec Rosso workshop standing up and taking notice. And this is what resulted. The Ferrari specialist shop has enhanced the new FF with a series of... Read More

Let's Make A List: Cool Things People Are Doing In The RPG Hobby
I'll go first: have you checked out 6d6 Fireball and Chris' ideas for the 6d6 RPG? I definitely have some questions, but I'm curious to see more, and thingk the basic concept is pretty neat.
Really looking forward to seeing what people come up with. Don't be afraid to be optimistic or enthusiastic. I know that's sometimes presented as anathema to the seasoned vets of our hobby, but it shouldn't be!

Well, I'm writing about three dozen adventures to be used with Dark Fate but also easily adapted to any other retroclone. The idea is to come with some nice hooks that blend together and allow for a large campaign without hindering the Referee if he want to use them out of the main context.
FYI, I'm telling you this before I post it on my blog, so you have this news before everyone else. ;-)

How about free characters?
Kinda like what Jason Richards has been doing at Jason Richards Can Not Be Trusted. The free characters are cool and work for a variety of different games. Great resource if you need character or campaign ideas really.

I'm revamping the Star Wars D6 system—making a rules compendium and universe sourcebook. Yeah, I know I can't publish it for money or anything, but Star Wars has always been my 'true love' when it comes to gaming. And even if you don't like the system, the sourcebook part of it could be of interest to folks—I'm trying to make it more 'information' than 'game stats'. Anyway, completion is still a while off, but I am posting about it on my blog.

Hate to toot my own horn, but I started a blog not too long ago for the three games i'm regularly playing dnd 4.0, dnd 3.5/pathfinder, and classic battletech. I've been a player, and as a game master/dungeon master for the better part of the past 30 years of various role playing games in various genres. The blog focus's on creating cheap terrain for my gaming needs as well as game accessories/aids to hand out to players. I hope a few of you check it out, thanks!

Ninjas, pirates, and dinosaurs. A fantasy Asia, filled with warring island nations. Samurai mounted on domesticated raptors. Bigger dinosaurs hunted by quasi-Polynesian tribesmen. Dueling factions of shadow warriors. Privateers and buccaneers battling the servants of the Imperial Navy. Fallen kingdoms deep in forgotten jungles. And we call it...
DPoNI is a free ruleset based on True20, streamlined and tweaked to encourage the sort of fast-paced Awesome that the setting expects.
The setting itself is evolving - because Corey Reid has used a Creative Commons license, anyone can add islands and NPCs to the archipelago, and it's all hosted in a Wiki on the DPoNI site.
It's sort of like a blender with a Not-Awesome-Enough filter on it - throw in some pirates, ninjas, and dinosaurs, hit Pulse a few times, and you end up with a Smoothie of Cool.

This list would not be complete without mentioning Christian Kennig's Dungeonslayers. If you haven't checked out this fine game, you should definitely do so. It's free, released under a CC BY-NC-SA license and Christian is currently working on a 4th edition which will even be released in print in Germany later this year.
And since tooting one own's horn is obviously ok, I would like to point you towards Stargazer Games, my site for all the free stuff I've created. You definitely have to check out Warrior, Rogue & Mage, a rules-light fantasy game which will be released in a revised edition soon (I hope). :)

I'd like to plug The Cyberpunk Revival Competition over on http://www.1km1kt.net
The entries will be in at the end of the month and I'll do a few reviews. Some of the ideas of near-future worlds are superb. There's nothing wrong with Cyberpunk but it feels 80s, these feel more like the naughties with climate catastrophe on the cards too.

I make a scalable dry erase gaming surface. You can use it like a scrolling map surface for your table top.
We call them Battlegraph Dry Erase Boards. ( or just Battleboards for short)
I use them in my weekly games, and feel that no GM should be without a set.
I have a couple of other projects in the works, so keep your eyes on us for useful Role Playing accessories.

I like the games that Marque Press put out in the 1990's and just started running another Legendary Lives campaign. I even have a section of my blog that is recording the parties crazy antics. So far the group consists of a Ratling Necromancer, a Wolfling Duelist, a Goblin Assassin, a Draconian Demonologist and a Nomad Necromancer. Should be one wild ride.
I also started a website for all of us that used to game as a way of life (like my 9 games I played in 7 days a week back in college) but who now find that they have a gamer family they are busy raising. Check it out at The Halfling
Perhaps the most exciting new game I have found is Horror Rules, which I have played at Portland, Oregon's GameStorm convention for the last several years. I plan to run it at Con again this next March.

Despite missing out on a front wrong grid slot in Melbourne, Nico Rosberg reckons he didn't do much wrong - but he also didn't get it all right.
The German driver entered Saturday's qualifying for the Australian GP as the one to beat having set the pace by more than a full second in the weekend's final practice session.
But with the rain coming down, the conditions in qualifying were very different.
Rosberg lost out to not only team-mate Lewis Hamilton but also Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo as his 1:44.595 was only enough for third.
"I'm not sure what the others were doing - we didn't get everything right, but we didn't do much wrong, but all in all it was a good qualifying session," he said.
"I'm pleased with third - we could do better, but at least with that a good race is possible."
And a good race come rain or shine is what Rosberg expects to have come Sunday's 58-lap Australian GP.
"It will be a different story tomorrow depending on the weather. There is a small chance of rain but it's more likely to be dry and totally different."
However, the Mercedes driver, like his rivals, will have to cope with fuel consumption for the first time as drivers are now limited to just 100kgs of fuel per grand prix. And that, Rosberg concedes, won't be easy.
"Melbourne is the most difficult track for fuel consumption so it will be difficult to save fuel during the race. It will be a big challenge."

Keith Haring
June 5, 2013 to November 4, 2013
Through its partnership with the National Gallery of Canada, the Winnipeg Arts Gallery is proud to present Keith Haring (1958-1990), one of the Pop movement's most important and recognizable artists. These quintessential public works capture the artist's belief that "art is for everyone" with their accessibility, bold colour, and powerful symbolism that begs for interpretation.
The son of a professional cartoonist, Haring left commercial art school in Pittsburgh to study at the School of Visual Arts in New York City at the age of 19. Heavily influenced by New York's graffiti scene, he started to look at the city as an open canvas - especially the subways where he first gained attention for his public art. Inspired by a course on semiotics at school, Haring used symbols that "cut through all of culture and history" to celebrate life, death, war, and unity. Following in the steps of his idol (and eventual friend) Andy Warhol, Haring quickly gained the respect and attention of both the art world and the general public with his signature style of bold lined, figurative drawing.
While graffiti art influenced Haring's style, the 80's provided many social and political concerns to respond to through art. Raised in the climate of the Vietnam War and Civil-Rights movement, Haring was a natural activist who used his art to bring awareness to the issues of his time such as Apartheid and the AIDS and crack-cocaine epidemics. The 80's were also a prosperous time that fueled an unprecedented art market boom. The media embraced Haring and Warhol, making them household names. When Haring opened his own store called Pop Shop, he was criticized for "selling out". He defended his embrace of commercialism by stating that Pop Shop was simply another platform with which to bypass the artworld establishment, making his work more accessible to a larger audience. Those same critics would be silenced once they discovered that Haring donated proceeds from Pop Shop to the AIDS cause.
Haring died in 1990 of AIDS-related complications but his legacy lives on through his public art and The Keith Haring Foundation.

7/24 in Yankee History
The red-letter day:
1983: The 'Pine Tar Game'.
With 2 outs in the 9th inning at the Stadium, George Brett hits an apparent 2-run home run off Rich Gossage to give the Royals a
5-4 lead, only to have it taken away when
Yankees manager Billy Martin' at the urging of coach Don Zimmer, points out that the pine tar on Brett's bat handle exceeds the 17
inches allowed in the rules. As a result' Brett is called out for
illegally batting the ball' giving New York a 4-3 victory. Brett goes
ballistic, and the Royals immediately file a protest with AL President Lee MacPhail.
On other 24ths of July…
2004: One of the more eventful contests in the long Yankees-Red Sox rivalry takes place at Fenway. The game almost does not take place at all, as there is a delay of nearly one hour getting the field ready. By the time the umpiring crew agree that the game should go on, several Yankee players have showered and left the park. Tempers flare in the top of the 3rd when A-Rod is struck on the elbow by a pitch from Boston starter Bronson Arroyo. A-Rod yells at Arroyo; when catcher Jason Varitek intervenes, Rodriguez turns on him, and Varitek atatcks him without removing his mask. Both benches clear, then, and in the melee that follows, several players on both sides sustain minor cuts and bruises. After order is restored, A-Rod, Varitek, New York's Kenny Lofton and Boston's Gabe Kapler are all ejected. The game ends when Bill Mueller delivers a three-run homer off Mariano Rivera in
the bottom of the ninth for an 11-10 Red Sox win.
2001: Andy Pettitte gets the ball and goes 7 innings, giving up 4 runs on 7 hits. His replacement, Ramiro Mendoza, will give up an 8th inning moon shot to Detroit's Juan Encarnacion. The blast lands in the 2nd row of the empty blue bleacher seats in left center, and is believed to be the first ball hit into that area since Yankee
Stadium was remodelled in the mid-'70s. Andy gets the 7-4 win, and Mariano Rivera the save.
1999: The Yankees pound the Indians 21-1. The Bronx Bomber attack is led by Chili Davis, who bangs out 5 hits' including a double and homer' while driving home 6 runs.
1998: Darryl Strawberry's 2-run blast in the 6th propels the Yankees and Andy Pettitte to a 5-4 win over the White Sox at the Stadium.
1996: Andy Pettitte gives up 9 hits in six innings of work, but holds the Rangers to only 2 runs. A bases-loaded three-run double in 5th inning off the bat of Tino Martinez is the margin of victory as the Yanks roll 4-2 at home, and Andy goes to 15-5.
1991: In a game against the Mariners' the Yankees score 3 runs on a ground
ball hit back to the pitcher. With runners on 2nd and 3rd and one out in
the 4th' Pat Kelly hits a comebacker to Erik Hanson. The Seattle hurler traps Kevin Maas in a rundown between 3rd and home' but Maas scores when third baseman Edgar Martinez's throw hits him in the back. The ball rolls up the 1st base line into foul territory where it is recovered by catcher Dave Cochrane. Cochrane fires home off Alvaro Espinoza who is also attempting to score. The throw goes into the Mariners'
dugout allowing Espinoza and Kelly to cross the plate with the 2nd and
3rd runs.
1978: In Kansas City' a distraught Billy Martin reads a prepared statement in which he resigns as the Yankee manager. Dick Howser will fill in that night as the Yanks lose 5-2.
1966: The Yankees beat the Angels 9-1 in game one of a doubleheader, and Mickey Mantle hits his 2nd homer in two days. The
roundtripper' his 493rd' ties him with Gehrig for 6th place on the
all-time list. The Yanks take the second contest as well, 4-1.
1961: 50'000 fans' on hand for the Yankees exhibition game with the Giants, save their biggest cheer for Willie Mays. Willie delivers a 2-run single in the 4-1 victory. The only score for the Yanks is a Mickey Mantle homer.
1958: It's Gil McDougald and Mickey Mantle today hitting back-to-back shots' in the 9th' as New York outhit Detroit for a 10-7 win. Paul Foytack comes on in releif today. Mickey Mantle is 3-for-4 as the Yanks complete a 3-game sweep of the Tigers.
1954: Repeating hsi recent experiment, Casey Stengel pulls Phil Rizzuto in the 8th for a pinch hitter and brings in Mickey Mantle to play shortstop. Mantle plays short with Willie Miranda at second against lefthanded hitters. Against righties' Miranda and Mantle switch positions. But Cleveland win 5-4 on Larry Doby's 2-run homer in the 10th' his 3rd homer in 2 days at Yankee Stadium. Sam Dengte fills in at short for George Strickland' sidelined with a broken jaw. The Tribe go 2 1/2 games up on New York.
1940: The Yankees (6) and Browns (5) tie a Major League record for most pitchers in a
9-inning game. The Browns pound out a 14-12 win as Walt Judnich hits a home run' 2
doubles and 2 singles. He had 2 homers in yesterday's win over New York. The
Yanks counter with homers by Joe DiMaggio' Bill Dickey' Joe Gordon and Tommy Henrich.
1934: In a 4-2 loss to the Browns' Yankee star center fielder Earle Combs crashes into the wall at Sportsman's Park in St. Louis and
suffers a broken collarbone and a fractured skull. New York summon George Selkirk as a replacement, but learn he broke his arm today playing for Newark. Combs will
announce his retirement on the 28th' but will come back to play 89 games next
1929: The Yanks edge the Tigers' 7-5' behind the hitting of rookie Bill Dickey. The new starting catcher has 4 hits' including a home run, to back Herb Pennock's pitching.
1926: Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth demonstrate that power hitting is not the only thing they can do when
Lou scores on a double steal with the Babe in a 7-4 victory over the White Sox. They had pulled the same double steal against the Red Sox on April 13th.
1923: In Philadelphia' Yankee pitcher Carl Mays (below) beats the Athletics' 9-2 for his AL record 24th straight win over
Philadelphia. (This matches the ML high of Christy Mathewson, who won 24 straight against the Phillies). He started with doubleheader victories on August
30' 1918' while pitching for the Red Sox. The Yankees score 5 in the 8th
and another 3 in the 9th on Babe Ruth's 3-run homer' which lands on the roof
of a house across 20th street.
1920: After losing 3 in a row' Cleveland salvage a win against New York by
scoring 2 runs in the 11th inning to win 4-2. Both Yankee runs come on
solo homers, by Bob Meusel and Babe Ruth. The Babe, who hit his 34th home run to give
the Yanks a temporary 2-1 lead' moves to first base in the 8th to take over for Wally Pipp who was ejected for arguing a called third strike. Ruth's high throw on a grounder allows Cleveland's Ray Chapman to reach base safely' and he and Joe Wood score on a Larry Gardner triple
that eludes Meusel. Jim Bagby is the winner. Cleveland leave New York
with a slim lead over the Yanks.
1919: At Fenway' Babe Ruth is
intentionally walked twice by Yankee hurler Bob Shawkey with runners
on. But in the 8th' with a one run lead,he gives up a single to Braggo
Roth and pitches to Ruth, who hits his 15th homer. The Sox win' 4-2.
