Former brides answer our nosy questions about their wedding attire
What goes into the choosing of a wedding dress? We cooked up an unscientific survey and inflicted it on our friends and acquaintances in an effort to find out. We asked whether they took a risk with their wedding dress, whether they were glad they did and what they liked best about their dresses. The survey comes first; responses follow.
2. Pick the three that best apply to your thinking as you were gown shopping:
I wanted to look: gorgeous; beautiful; sexy; sophisticated; like me; understated; I wanted to surprise people; I wanted to blow people's minds; I wanted to feel relaxed.
3. Did you take a risk with your dress (i.e., poofy, low-cut, clingy)?
4. If so, glad you did? If not, wish you had?
5. Greatest anxiety about your wedding dress:
6. Spanx/no Spanx?
7. What did you really love about your dress?
One to five? Wedding #1: Wanted to look like a 5. Wedding #2: Wanted to look like a 1.
Three sentences? Wedding #1: I wanted to look beautiful, I wanted to look like me, I wanted to show off my figure. Wedding #2: I wanted to look like me, I wanted to feel relaxed, I wanted to set a celebratory mood.
Risk? Wedding #2 I wore a red cocktail dress by Max Azria for BCBG (on a pregnant bride!)
Glad you did? Yes.
What did you really love? For the first, I felt rather fairy tale beautiful.~ (I also started hyperventilating right before walking down the aisle!) My father, a physician, started telling me jokes to calm me down.~For the second, I felt like me--just reveling in what I knew would be a memorable, beautiful day and trying to take it slow.
Maureen Davidson, Santa Cruz
One to five? 5, definitely
Three sentences? I wanted to look beautiful, I wanted to look sexy, I wanted to look like me.
Risk? My biggest risk was not having time to look for a dress till the night before! I found it in the sale rack of Nordstroms.
Glad? I felt fabulous...and it's entirely me to be secretly chuffed that I only paid $50 for it on sale.
Anxiety? When am I gonna have time to shop? My old boyfriend was coming, and I wanted him to feel an extra bite of loss.
Maura DeWandler, Austin, Texas
One to five? I'd say a 2... better than my best day, but definitely still myself.~I did not want guests or my husband to wonder who the sultry stranger in warpaint strutting down the aisle was.~
Pick three? I wanted to look like me, be beautiful, and be comfortable.~
Risk? Nope, no risks whatsoever. Very glad I did not take any risks
Anxiety? My greatest anxiety about my dress was discovering at the final fitting (two days before the wedding) that I had gained some weight in my hips and it was all bunchy and ill-fitting. Completely noticeable, like I had shoe-horned my way in. They had to slit both sides of the tighter-fitting slip layer to give me enough room.~ In the end, the seamstress did her magic and in the end, you never would've known.~
Spanx/no spanx? Hells yeah, Spanx! See previous question.
Loved the most? I loved the lacy, old-fashioned femininity of my dress (typically not my style... I'm definitely not a frilly femme).~Apparently, the technical name of the particular lace is "alencon lace," and it made me feel every bit the blushing bride.~ Oh, and I loved loved loved the fact that I didn't have to wear any sort of bra or contraption underneath, it had built in cups, nothing else needed.~ Except when my husband dipped me low during our dance, I think my nips may have made a sneak appearance out the top.~ Oops.
Marcelle Fiedler, Albuquerque, New Mexico
One to five? 1
Three sentences? I wanted to look like me., I wanted to feel relaxed, and I wanted to look beautiful. I really did not want a white dress, but Seth made me. So I said I would look. Once shopping I got carried away and could not decide on a dress.
Take a risk? I had a petticoat that made it poofy and impossible to go to the bathroom. Just read on Wikipedia that the petticoat was designed (in the 1500's) to complement a large bust (something I do not have). Well, it did make the dress poofy.
Glad? I like my dress but it was not exactly my style. I go caught up in the wedding thing and bought a dress that was simple yet not simple.
Anxiety? That it would fall down. At the last minute I added straps to a strapless dress.
Spanx/no Spanx? What is spanx?
Love most? I loved the color and how it tied up the back. But I tied it too tight because I was afraid it was going to fall.
Gretchen Giles, Santa Rosa
One to five? 5, duh.
Pick three: gorgeous/beautiful/show off figure
Risk? Yes. I bought a halter style form-fitter that was black with white stripes that ended in geometric poofs below the knee.
Glad? I felt gorgeous in it but I don't really think that it did me any favors.
Anxiety? That at $500, it cost exactly as much as the entire rest of our wedding.
Spanx/no Spanx? I have absolutely no idea what that is and am loathe to google it. I did, if this is a "foundation" question, have to wear the most obscene garment from my thighs to just under my breasts. My husband has still never seen this piece of stretchy horror. It's like the kind of thing a surgeon would give you to wear after extensive liposuction.
Love most? That it was all about curves, and being short and stout, I gotta be all about curves.
Vicky Hoppin, San Jose
One to five? 4
Pick three: beautiful/show off figure/understated
Risk? Had to go with a strapless bra (quite the trick with size double d's) as dress was netting at the top.
Glad? Strapless was not a smart option.
Anxiety? Strapless bra was going to lose gravity
Spanx? Had never even heard of Spanx 12 years ago.
Love most? Despite the fears of the strapless adventure, I really loved the way the netting at the top looked sexy yet contained.
Traci Hukill, Los Gatos
One to five? 2
Pick three: beautiful/relaxed/like me
Risk? Plunging neckline; also bought the dress three sizes too big and had to have it dramatically altered.
Glad? Neckline worked out fine; in pictures I'm afraid the dress looks like it was a little big on me.
Anxiety: Terrified I would start my period. Or trip. Also, I didn't know what I was going to do with my hair until an hour before the wedding! That was a mistake.
Spanx? No
Love best? The dress made me feel beautiful and regal and very much in tune with a certain part of myself that I don't always remember exists. Also, my god, that fabric! I just felt good to put that dress on.
Michelle Parnell, Austin, Texas
One to five? 5
Pick three: /beautiful/sophisticated/relaxed
Risk? No.
Anxiety? None, really.
Spanx/no Spanx? Spanx always.
Love most? Second wedding and I have worn it again! Classic St. John suit.
Tamara Righettini, Austin, Texas
One to five? 1
Risk? No risk.
Wish you had? I wish I had looked in the mirror and saw my gut in time to do something about it.
Anxiety? That I wasn't going to find it. I didn't want a real wedding dress.
Susan Shoen, Sapulpa, Oklahoma
One to five? 3
Pick three? Beautiful, me
Take a risk? I didn't practice walking up stairs in it!
Glad? I wish I had! I started to trip and my prince (that turned into a frog 25 years later) caught my elbow and steadied me. I'm not sure, but there was probably a tiny collective gasp from the audience. I forgot to lift the front of the dress for the steps because I had my bouquet in my hands (because I hadn't handed it to Kathi like I was supposed to).
Anxiety? Collar not pressed!
Spanx/no Spanx? What the heck is that?
Love most? I felt like a princess.
A friend who prefers to remain anonymous:
Thinking about these questions makes me realize how ambivalent I was about the man I was marrying...and that ambivalence must have gone into my choice of dress. It was a gauzy, ethereal, ivory-colored thing with a floral design, three-quarter sleeves and a scoop neck. Nothing sexy about it. Not a dress that would stop any traffic. For the life of me, I can't remember what I was thinking when I bought it. I had no idea who I was, and that airy, insubstantial dress seems to emphasize that fact.
Jessica Sather, Austin, Texas
One to five? 3
Pick three? I wanted to look beautiful, I wanted to feel relaxed, I wanted my choice of dress to be meaningful.
Risk? Yes! I wore my mother's wedding dress (her wedding was 35 years prior).~ Her dress was simply a vintage 1930s dressing gown/slip.~
Glad? Absolutely glad--couldn't imagine it otherwise.
Anxiety? Finding a seamstress who works with vintage silk and lace.
Spanx/no Spanx? Considered, but ultimately chose not to.~ It's Texas summer--c'mon!~ Also, I wouldn't wear Spanx on any other day, so didn't want that to be a lasting impression.~ I choice pantylines!
Love best? I love that it was my mom's. I felt like I was carrying a bit of my past into my future with me.

Tabi Zarrinnaal, San Jose
One to five? 2
Pick three: classic bride/better version of me/ skinny
Risk? Considering this was the only occasion where I could get away with wearing a big poofy dress, I went poofy and strapless but really simple.
Glad? YES YES YES!!! i didn't have to worry about sucking it in and it was the most romantic dress I could find! I was so comfortable all night!
Anxiety? It was 100% silk and I didn't want it to look shiny in pictures, and I had lost too much weight and it was getting too loose on me.
Spanx? No.
Loved most? I loved that it was romantic and simple. It had no beading or anything... just a silk flower on my waist that matched the one in my hair.

Oh the times, oh the customs! These days, with every Tom Dick and Harry CEO maintaining a Twitter account and public Facebook page, it's easier than ever to violate the S.E.C.'s rules about where you can disclose key information so all your shareholders see it. That's already gotten Netflix CEO Reed Hastings into a little trouble (not that his example stopped rogue Tesla CEO and would-be Martian Elon Musk).
Well today the S.E.C. announced that it's a-okay to announce "key information" (like sales figures) via social media, "so long as investors have been alerted about which social media will be used to disseminate such information."
So, to clarify:
"One set of shareholders should not be able to get a jump on other shareholders just because the company is selectively disclosing important information," said George Canellos, Acting Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement. "Most social media are perfectly suitable methods for communicating with investors, but not if the access is restricted or if investors don't know that's where they need to turn to get the latest news."
In other words, an announcement from the company's designated Twitter feed is fine, but no random personal Facebook updates, even if you have a quarter of a million subscribers. Okay, Reed? Think you can handle that?

text: (WGR 550) -- With the 2013 season behind the Buffalo Bills, the attention now turns to the off-season and what the team could do in the off-season to get themselves over the hump and back to the playoffs. There are many reasons why the Bills ended up one the wrong side of the scoreboard more often than not throughout this past season, and they have some clearly defined needs. There are some decisions that need to be made throughout the next four months that will dictate how important each of the needs will be. Before any of that happens though, here are some of the areas that the Bills may look to address: Wide Receiver Players under contract in 2014: Stevie Johnson, Robert Woods, Marquise Goodwin, T.J. Graham, Marcus Easley, Cordell Roberson, Kevin Elliott, Chris Hogan (ERFA) Why it's a need: The idea behind all the talk about adding a wide receiver is surrounding quarterback EJ Manuel with as much playmaking talent as possible on the offensive side of the ball. Right now they have four receivers in their normal rotation, and their skill-sets are essentially duplicates in a lot of ways. Stevie Johnson and Robert Woods are each savvy route runners that won't necessarily break a game open with their speed or leaping ability. Marquise Goodwin and T.J. Graham are both speedsters that are lacking in the size department. Because of the similarities and some other reasoning, there is a chance Johnson and possibly Graham are not around by the start of the 2014 season. Johnson's cap number goes up by nearly $3 million in 2014, and the Bills could essentially come out even and then save a lot of money on their cap in 2015 and 2016. The Bills need to add a target that has a top-notch catching radius. To quote Buddy Nix, they need a receiver who is open even when he's not. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Draft pick, 1st or 2nd round Tight End Players under contract in 2014: Tony Moeaki, Lee Smith, Chris Gragg, Mike Caussin (RFA) Why it's a need: Scott Chandler enjoyed a few successful seasons as the team's starting tight end, but was limited as a blocker and showed only average athleticism. As evidenced by their signing of Moeaki late in the year and the drafting of Chris Gragg, they are looking to get much more athletic at the position. It is entirely possible that the Bills may look at the combination of Moeaki and Gragg and be satisfied heading into 2014. However, a matchup mismatch playing at that position is the X-factor for most successful offenses in the NFL, so the Bills might be best served to add someone with that kind of pedigree. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Draft pick, 1st or 2nd round Offensive guard Players under contract in 2014: Kraig Urbik, Doug Legursky, J.J. 'Unga, Mark Asper, Antoine McClain (ERFA) Why it's a need: Doug Legursky was terrifyingly bad at left guard and Kraig Urbik definitively regressed as a right guard. Urbik also carries a high cap number based on his production, so the Bills may elect to move on from him. Head coach Doug Marrone likes the potential of the trio of young guards they have on the roster, so J.J. 'Unga, Mark Asper or even Antoine McClain may get a shot to start in 2014. The Bills could have both of their guards replaced by the time the 2014 season starts with the Bills potentially looking to fill it with players more geared towards their offense. One of the big problems throughout the season was the ability for the guards to get out in front of screen plays, so bigger and more athletic offensive linemen could end up being brought in. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Draft pick, round 4, 5 or 6 & priority undrafted free agent Right tackle Players under contract in 2014: Erik Pears, Chris Hairston Why it's a need: If Chris Hairston remained healthy, Erik Pears may not have made it through final cuts because of his contract. Entering the final year of his deal, if the Bills were to cut ties with Pears they would save $2.9 million to the 2014 salary cap. Carrying a cap hit of $3.45 million for the upcoming season, his level of production falls way short of his salary. If Hairston can resume his playing career that would be a bonus for the Bills, but still look for them to address this position at some point in the draft. It depends on your philosophy, but teams that are void of talent at other more important positions are likely to be much better served by waiting and drafting a right tackle in the middle rounds. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Draft, round 3, 4 or 5 Running Back Players under contract in 2014: Fred Jackson, C.J. Spiller, Ronnie Wingo Why it's a need: The Bills need to start looking towards the future at running back. Fred Jackson will be 33 in 2014 and entering the final year of his contract. C.J. Spiller will also be entering the final year of his contract in 2014, and under the current regime at One Bills Drive, they might be hesitant to re-sign him for the likely salary he will command on the open market. If the front office is aggressive, they could even stand to trade Spiller ahead of the 2014 season while he still has some good value. From what we've seen happen on the field, the Bills portrayed a team that doesn't believe Spiller is a feature running back and that he can't be trusted on third downs to protect the quarterback. For all these reasons, running back is one of the more under-the-radar needs of the Buffalo Bills heading into this off-season. Even if they keep Spiller, they should draft a young player and if he shows something in the preseason and training camp, then look to deal Spiller. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Draft, round 3 or 4 Linebacker Players under contract in 2014: Kiko Alonso, Nigel Bradham, Manny Lawson Why it's a need: Arthur Moats wasn't great in 2013 and is a free agent, and Nigel Bradham seems to be more of a depth and special teams player than someone that can make an impact on defense. They need someone to take the 20 to 50-percent of snaps that position dictates in any given game to help out the run defense. The player they add doesn't have to be a stud or an early round pick. They just have to be a player that excels in diagnosing the run plays and can help out Kiko Alonso and the defensive line to continue down the path of becoming a top notch defense in the NFL. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Middle tier free agent and draft, round 5 or 6 Pass Rusher Players under contract in 2014: Mario Williams, Jerry Hughes, Ty Powell, Jacquies Smith Why it's a need: While both Mario Williams and Jerry Hughes are going nowhere anytime soon, Hughes is a free agent following the 2014 regular season. The likelihood that the Bills will pay two pass rushers elite money are not very good, which means the Bills may want to develop another player to get after the quarterback during the 2014 campaign. The Bills do like Ty Powell as a developing player and they've also been working with Jacquies Smith on the practice squad for some of the year. They could still stand to add a player in the draft who could be thought of as a pass-rushing specialist that's rough around the edges in the rest of his game. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Mid-to-late round draft pick Safety Players under contract in 2014: Aaron Williams, Da'Norris Searcy, Duke Williams, Jonathan Meeks Why it's a need: Without safety Jairus Byrd, this defense takes a definitive step back. Da'Norris Searcy just isn't anywhere close to the type of talent that Byrd presents and would be a considerable drop-off in coverage ability. The Bills still have Aaron Williams, Duke Williams and Jonathan Meeks to round out the other starter and depth, but this organization needs to figure out a way to retain Byrd. He's a playmaker on that defense, and one they'd be foolish to get rid of. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Re-sign Jairus Byrd or at the very least franchise tag him Cornerback Players under contract in 2014: Stephon Gilmore, Leodis McKelvin, Nickell Robey, Ron Brooks, Brandon Smith, Mario Butler Why it's a need: The Bills are hoping Stephon Gilmore will get back to the form he displayed in training camp and preseason and Leodis McKelvin took a step forward in what was his best season to date. Nickell Robey also provided a big boost as their nickel corner and is entrenched in that position going forward. The need for a cornerback really comes down to a depth perspective. Ron Brooks seems to have fallen out of favor with the coaching staff and may not make it to the 2014 regular season roster, while Brandon Smith will also be pushed for a roster spot. The Bills need depth at the position so adding some experience and some youth, both with the prerequisite of size, will help round out the group that was a lot stronger than first anticipated in 2013. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Lower-tier free agent and late round draft pick Quarterback Players under contract in 2014: EJ Manuel, Kevin Kolb, Thad Lewis, Jeff Tuel Why it's a need: The Bills have stated that EJ Manuel will be their starter in 2014 and also spoke about how happy they were with the contributions of Thad Lewis in his five starts. The most likely scenario for the group is if they got a final word on Kevin Kolb and if he can return, and then likely do nothing through free agency. While some fans may argue for different, that appears to be the path the Bills are on for 2014. How Joe B would address it (as of today): Late round draft pick or priority undrafted free agent Twitter: @JoeBuscaglia

Mel Gibson's Former CT Home On The Market For $33 Million
Has the luxury market on Connecticut's Gold Coast improved that much since 2010? Apparently, or so the owner of actor Mel Gibson's former Greenwich estate appear to believe, according to People magazine. For more about the house's sales history, read Kenneth R. Gosselin's blog: Luxury Housing Market Roaring Back in Greenwich, Or Just Wishful Thinking?
With vaulted ceilings, stained glass windows and a movie theater inside, and a hedge maze and giant chess set outdoors, this home has a package of features you'll likely not find in any other home in Connecticut.
The 15-bedroom, 13 1/2 bathroom home was built in 1926 and is currently on the market for $32,995,000.
