Best cross trainers with wide toe box
Some runners, especially men, have wider toes that require cross trainers with wide toe box. However, it is not clear which particular model of shoes has it. Hence, I rounded up some of the cross trainers that have wide tox box to make it easier for you to know which model to choose from. Below are the cross trainers.
Reebok CrossFit Shoes
This Reebok crossfit shoes are a great choice for people with wide toes. It offers very solid support around the ankle without letting you feel obstructive. It is also fairly light weight as it comes in at around t 9.15 ounces. The best thing however is its wide toe box that provide plenty of room for you to skretch your toes or to prevent them from being squash. You can see the wide toe box in the image below
Cross training shoes with wide toe box for women
For ladies, you can choose the New Balance 856 that offers wonderful ankle support on top of their wide toe box. In fact, the internal structure caters for low arch, flat feet and over pronation. Internally, there is good padding as well so it is comfortable to wear and can cater to your workouts.
Best asics cross trainers
Asics, while might not be perceived as fashionable and hip as Nike or Adidas, it does make very good cross training shoes. Most of its cross trainers are comfortable fit and well supported cushioning at the side of the shoes. This makes them very suitable for carrying out various exercises, from running to ball sports such as volleyball (See this review article on cross trainers for volleyball). In this article, we will be recommending the top asics cross trainers
Best asics cross trainers for men: Asics Gel-Express 3
The asics men cross trainers are so good that they can be used as cross trainers for the insanity workout. For those who have went through insanity, you know how much lateral movement it requires. If this pair of Asics cross trainers can handle that kind of punishment, it can survive through anything you need.
The Asics Gel-Express 3 has very solid cushioning supporting at the heels, making them very comfortable to walk or exercise in. They also absorb shock very well, which is why they can be used for P90 insanity type of workout.
Prices wise, they are cheap compared to other brands such as Nike and Addias. You can probably get a pair at less than USD70 if you buy from Amazon, which might even offer free shipping.
Best Asics cross trainers for women: GEL-Envigor TR Cross-Training Shoe
Similar to the Asics men cross trainers, the GEL-Envigor TR Cross-Training Shoe has lots of padding inside to support cross training exercises. For women who have narrower feet, you might feel a bit strange at first as you need a wider foot. However, the padding does give you that extra protection and comfort.
The fit allows support and yet, gives your toes room to spread if needed. This is nice when you are doing intensify workouts such as kick boxing exercises or insanity type of workouts.
However, there are some customers who feedback that the sizing on this model is a bit off. You might need to order half a size bigger if you want to get the correct fit.
Also the GEL-Envigor TR Cross-Training Shoe is not a light weight cross trainers. However it is the best in terms of comfort and support.
Most stylish cross trainers for men
Cross training shoes are not only longer only about function. As a man who likes to look good, the design of my cross trainers played a big part on how I select my running shoes. Every year, I look for the most stylish looking cross trainers towards the end of the year so that I have sparking new shoes when the new year comes about.
So, without any further delay, here are my picks for the most stylish cross training shoes for 2013!
New Balance Mx20v2 Minimus cross training shoes
Look at this beauty. The design is modern and the colors are attractive. The Mx20v2 Minimus is meant to be worn barefooted so if you are intending to wear socks, please order half a size bigger. As a minimalist shoe, the Mx20v2 Minimus not only looks good but is very light as well.
Available in blue as well.
Merrell true glove cross training shoes
I like the unique concentric designs that are found on the side of the shoe. The lacing is also particular interesting. I found out later that this is a new lacing system that is suppose to give you a more snug fit. The upper layer of the shoe is made of durable water repellent-treated synthetic leather that is suppose to be light and gives your feet room to breathe.
Puma Voltaic 3 NM crossing training shoes
I love the asymmetry of Puma's Voltaic 3 NM cross trainers. Using the classic sexy curve line with minimal colors has helped create a design that is modern and sophisticated. The air cushioning sole makes this a very comfortable shoe for running and other sports activities.
Adidas adiPURE cross training shoes
When the orignal five finger running shoes from Vibram came to the scene, I really hated it. No matter how good they are in terms of barefoot running, they are too ugly for my taste. Well, Adidas just came out with their version of their five finger running shoes called adiPURE that look so much better. With its signature black and white color tone, and the classic 3 stripes, Adidas has managed to turn the five finger design into something desirable.
Saucony Hattoir cross training shoes
Saucony is a relative unknown name in the world of cross training shoes. However, I liked their approach to design. The Velcros and mesh design makes it look uch sleeker than other cross trainers. Its mitten-like toe box makes it possible for the wearer to have more control over actions such as push, arch, grip etc.
Famous runners with flat feet
Having flat feet always imposes some kind of inconvenience, especially if you are into running. However, there have been many cases in history whereby runners with flat feet are able to achieve great success in their athletic careers. In this post, let's celebrate these famous runners with flat feet and look to them for inspiration!
Said Aouita
According to Wikipedia, Saïd Aouita is a Moroccan track and field athlete. His past achievements included winning the 5000 meters at the 1984 Summer Olympics and the 1987 World Championships in Athletics. In his interview with the New York Time in 1985, Aouita revealed that he had flat feet which made it painful for him to train. He did order special running shoes for flat feet to help overcome his disadvantage. Despite this setback, Aouita went on to set many records in the 1985 Olympics.
Read the source about Aouita's flat feet here
Alan Webb
Alan Webb is the record holder with a time of 3:46.91 for a mile. In the famous books for runners "born to run", it was revealed that Aln Webb started with a flat foot. Due to intensive training, he eventually developed archs. This of course lead to a lot of discussion in forums about what kind of training did Alan Webb go through, especially among people with flat feet. Of course, nothing concrete came out of this discussion which leave many flat feet folks quite disappointed.

Steve Plasencia
Steve Plasencia competed in the 1988 and 1992 10,000m race at the Olympics but did not secure the honors. He however did win the win the 1992 California International Marathon with a timing of 2:14:14. His flat feet prevented Plasencia from competing in short distance running as he was unable to lift and sprint. Plasencia als suffered a serious stress fracture after his 1988 Olympics although it was not clear whether that was due to his flat feet.
Read the source about Plasencia having flat feet here
Haile Gebrselassie
Haile Gebrselassie hailds from Ethiopia and is famous for his two Olympic gold medals over 10,000 metres: one in 1996 and one in 2000. He also won an impressive four World Championship titles. Interesting, there isn't much written about Haile Gebrselassie's flat feet. The only public source that I found is an article that causally mentioned that he is flat footed. After much research, it seems that many African runners are in fact flat footed. That is rather interesting and worthy of an article by itself.
Nike+ sensor cross training shoes has been released!
I have been a big fan of the Nike+ sensor running shoes. The idea of tracking our running statistics so that we can analayse and improve our favorite sport is a great! Unfortunately, the Nike+ sensor shoes range did not include any cross trainers so I didn't buy one to try it for myself.
The good news is that Nike has just annouced its latest range of Nike+ sensor shoes which included both cross training shoes as well as basketball shoes. Below is an image of the sensor basketball shoes.
How does Nike+ sensor cross training shoes work
For those who might not be familar with how Nike+ sensor shoes work, here is a rough breakdown. Each of the cross traininer shoes will be equipped with sensors on some of its important parts like the heel of the sole. The data collected from the sensor will then be transmitted to your iphone via bluetooth.
The date can then be analysed via a Nike+ app that outputs fancy graphics and charts for you to analyse and track. The kind of data will give data fans some fun to mouse over. For the rest of us, it will be something useful for us to take occasional looks and see whether we are improving.
Currently, according to a wired review, the Nike+ basketball shoes are not really that perfect. The amount of data it can collect is limited and you can't do too much with the data. Prices are also expensive, with a fair of pair of Nike+ basketball shoes costing about USD250+.
I will definitely not buy it immediately but I will be keeping a close eye on any news or improvement or price drops. Bookmark this site for future reference!

You can never have enough useful tips to help your skin looking awesome year round. InStyle recently collected 50 of the best skin care tips for this fall, all guaranteed to keep you looking your best. See what some of them are below!
For the best results when exfoliating, the longer you keep the product on not the harder you rub it on matters most. Too much force can be harmful for your skin.
As much as a bummer as this is, alcoholic drinks can be a major damage to your skin. More than one drink a day can increase oil production and enlarge pores, so moderation is best.
To help clear away your day's makeup wash your face with two different type products. First use a gentle cleanser to clean off makeup, then wash with a soothing one to balance out your skin. InStyle recommends Shu Uemura's Skin Purifier and CerVe's hydrating cleanser.
When applying your skin products go from lightest to heaviest. For example, apply a serum, then moisturizer and finally, sunscreen.
I am always surprised at all the skin benefits everyday foods can provide. For example, sour cream can smooth your skin and improve texture especially for those with sensitive skin. Apply to your face 2 times a week for about 20 minutes. Make sure to use the full fat kind! [via InStyle]

Lovelies, what are some of your fall skin care tips?

In 1965, Bill Cosby played the leading role in "I Spy," becoming the first African American to co-star on a television series and winning three consecutive Emmys in the process. In the '70s, he created the cartoons "Fat Albert" and "The Cosby Kids," both of which were hits. Then in the '80s, of course, was "The Cosby Show," which got about as big as a sitcom can get. And now, in 2013, 50 years into Cosby's career, he's still doing stand up. He'll be at the Palace Theatre in Stamford Saturday night.

Flowery Friday
This was today's work outfit... the girls and I found out a little while ago that we had dress-down Fridays at work, but we never actually knew before. But now denim is allowed every day of the week, so when I do wear it I always like to dress it up a little. This kimono top is great for cooler summer days when the weather can't make up its mind. Like today. And yesterday. And tomorrow.

Dubai is already home to some of the most architecturally stunning, advanced, and excessive buildings in the world, but the Water Discus Hotel is a showstopper – and we just received word that BIG INVEST and Deep Ocean Technology have joined forces with plans to actually build the Water Discus Hotel and possibly duplicate it around the world. Created by Polish firm Deep Ocean Technology, the design called for a pair of sci-fi styled discs, one of which would be positioned 21 stories underwater. Those lucky enough to reserve rooms in the underwater portion of this real life Atlantis would be treated to a fish-eye view of the Persian Gulf.
According to a press release, BIG InvestConsult AG and Deep Ocean Technology GmbH (owner of the patent rights of the Water Discus Hotel (WDH) concept), recently established a joint company in Switzerland so that the WDH can be commercialized around the world. Currently, the new company is researching marine construction methods, looking for additional investors, and scouting possible locations for its underwater hotel chain. Apparently, specific projects are already under consideration for locations in the United Arab Emirates, the Maldives, Oman and Martinique.
The WDH's discs, which would house swimming pools, a sun deck, SPA, restaurants and a helipad (among other things) would be interchangeable and buoyant, which means they can be used as lifesaving vessels if there were ever an emergency. There's no word yet on what a stay in this magnificent hotel would cost, but we're guessing it's not in the average person's budget.

Kim Kardashian's No-Makeup Makeup Look
"Use a tinted moisturizer all over the face to create a nice even tone. Next, contour using a bronzer under the cheekbones, along [the] jaw line and frame the whole face. Finish the contour with a highlighting stick on the t-zone, I love 'Luminizer' foundation stick by Gotham Beauty Lounge. For the dewy eye look, it is important to use loose shimmer shadow all over the lid. I love Kevyn Aucoin's loose shimmer shadow in 'Topaz,' but make sure to use a shadow primer first so it doesn't blow away."
Finish off your look by lining your lops with a nude liner and a natural pink gloss.

Kate Mara's Subtle Smoky Eyes
Sabastian says this is the first step in creating the smoky effect.
"Outline the eye with black liner, framing the whole eye. This will give you that subtle smoke without taking away the naturalness of the face. Using Kevyn Aucoin's highly recommended 'smokey brown' duo eye shadow palette, complete step one and two and don't forget to always use a very light frost to add to the brow bone to show off that arch!"

Cara Delevingne's Eye-Catching Eyebrows
"Cara Delevigne's brows still appear neat and anyone can make that look even bolder with the help of a defining eye brow pencil. I always recommend the Brunette Brow Definition pencil by Kevyn Aucoin to achieve this."

Trex Company 2012 Net Sales Increase 15% To $307 Million
Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE: TREX), the world's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing products, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012.
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled $46.2 million compared to net sales of $51.5 million for the 2011 fourth quarter. The Company reported a net loss of $3.6 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the 2012 quarter compared to a net loss of $18.3 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, for the prior-year period. During the 2012 quarter, the Company recognized a $1.5 million provision for costs related to the mold class action. Before giving effect to that charge, the 2012 net loss was $2.1 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. During the 2011 quarter, the Company recognized a $10.0 million increase to the warranty reserve for decking material manufactured at its Nevada plant prior to 2007. Before giving effect to that charge, the 2011 net loss was $8.3 million, or $0.54 per share.
"We brought 2012 to a successful close with a solid fourth quarter," said Chairman, President and CEO Ronald W. Kaplan. "We exceeded our revenue guidance for the period and achieved sales growth of 15% for the year. This, coupled with continued growth in Trex dealers and contractors, indicates that we continued to advance our industry-leading market share.
"Demonstrating our commitment to innovative leadership, including the expansion of our high-performance shelled decking products, we introduced a 'good, better, best' high-performance product platform for both our decking and railing product lines. Today's product line-up represents the most comprehensive and robust platform in our Company's history. During 2012 we also made further progress with our industry-leading, low-cost manufacturing process and achieved another record in manufacturing line rates."Our new and expanded product offerings have significantly increased the markets in which Trex participates. We believe we are well positioned for 2013, during which we expect to benefit from the growing momentum in the housing sector.

14- How to improve the ecommerce in .NET
Posted on Jul 18 2011 at 07:31:56 AM in Programming
The aim of the ecommerce in .NET is to give guidance to their customers to buy merchandise out of your site. Therefore to attract potential customers it is necessary to improve the ecommerce website. So you should follow the below steps for the improvement of ecommerce website.
- The first thing you should decide upon is the amount that is to be spent so can get the website designed. After this you can choose a web page designing firm. So making the ultimate decision, affordability should be taken into consideration. It is also important to look for the achievable options before deciding and selecting a company. A good website design is one that gives an apparent return on funding over the set time period.
- To design the ecommerce website in .NET is different and unique than designing in other types of websites. Most of the shops use an online catalog type of format that is usually orgainized by category. You will be having photos, detailed description about each item so can inform your customers about things they should know about. With this the ecommerce website should also provide their customers with a secure and easy way to order.
- Other thing you should do is to setup your retailer as the visirors and your customers will mostly browse your website and will choose some of your gadgets and will then pay for it. So you should set up an ecommerce buying cart so it becomes an easy way for your customers to bring the purchases to the cash register. In this way you will be able to enter your merchandise in the database and allow your buyers to select merchandise.
- Few elements are their to put in ecommerce website such as the domain, web hosting, ecommerce software, and fee processor gateway. Domain names is very important part of any business website. Mostly these are overlooked areas but this can effect any enterprise so the name you choose must be carefully studied and analyzed before it is bought and used. The web host should be relaible, and properly established firm. With this the supply's technical details should also be checked and one should understand what they stand for. Factors like reliabilty, bandwidth, file storage space, repute, statistics, management panel, assist, backups, range of services,value, and much more are one by which you can determine whether the hosting firm is good and reliable or not. The retailer homeowner can set up their online shops by using the ecommerce software. There are standard payment processor firms like paypal, 2checkout, authorize.web and world pay through which the payment is tranferred from credit card accounts to financial institution account.
- You can get more visitors as up to 1000 visitora daily but for this it is important that you should promote your product or service. If your website of ecommerce in .NET is good and improved frequently than you will have many visitors daily other than the other websites. You should promote your websie worldwide. Methods like pay per click. Article submission, press launch, hyperlink change, directories submission and much more are the most efecient one for generating visitors to your websites.

Birds by name
Conservation status: Red
The twite is a small, brown finch closely related to the linnet, but with a longer tail and stubbier bill. Its back is tawny, heavily streaked with dark brown, and is white below with dark-brown streaks on its flanks. The rump is pink on males but brown on females. Like the linnet, it feeds on seeds year-round.
Carduelis flavirostris
Finches (Fringillidae)
Breeds on the moorlands of the Scottish Highlands, northern England and N Wales. In winter some remain in N and W Scotland, near the coast, while others, including Continental birds, move to the coast of eastern England where they can be found on saltmarshes and coastal fields.
Breeding areas are occupied from April to September. Birds then move out of their upland range, going to more coastal areas, with Pennines breeders going to the east coast of England. They stay on the coast from October until March.
* UK breeding is the number of pairs breeding annually. UK wintering is the number of individuals present from October to March. UK passage is the number of individuals passing through on migration in spring and/or autumn.

Nurse's Song (Blake, 1794)
From Wikisource
For works with similar titles, see Nurse's Song.
|←The Chimney Sweeper
|Songs of Experience by
Nurse's Song
|The Sick Rose→
|The poem in Songs of Experience is the polar opposite, and is a bitter, remorseful tale. It portrays the Nurse in a different light— she is bitter, and jealous of the innocence the children possess. Blake may be trying to portray the Nurse as a woman crushed by the weight of the world and turned bitter and cruel, no longer able to see the positive aspects of life. The language reflects her bitter nature— for example, "my face turns green and pale", and "wasted in play".
When the voices of children are heard on the green,
And whisperings are in the dale,
The days of my youth rise fresh in my mind,
My face turns green and pale.
Then come home, my children, the sun is gone down,
And the dews of night arise;
Your spring and your day are wasted in play,
And your winter and night in disguise.
This work was published before January 1, 1923, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.

The Macropod is a rigid, portable photomacrography system, which allows the user to make razor sharp, fully focused photographs of small sized specimens at 18 to 26-megapixel resolution. It overcomes the extreme Depth of Field (DOF) limitations inherent in optics designed to image smaller specimens. Normally, lenses designed for macro will only render a very small fraction of the depth of targeted specimen in sharp focus at any one exposure. The Macropod allows the user to select and make multiple exposures in precise increments along the Z-axis (depth) such that each exposure's area of sharp focus overlaps with the previous and next exposure. These source images are then transferred to a computer and merged by an image-stacking program. The stacking program (Zerene Stacker by Rik Littlefield) finds and stitches together only the focused pixels from each exposure into one image. The Macropod integrates industry-leading components in a novel and elegant way to achieve these results.

Dustywing: family Coniopterygidae, order Neuroptera; related to the lacewings. This tiny little thing (2.3 mm) landed on me at the bug light. I was totally clueless on this one. Finally, a BugGuide search on "tiny winged" turned up a single match.
Think these are banded killifish, Fundulus diaphanus. ~10 cm long. Shoaling in a shallow creekbed just off the Raritan Estuary. Very skittish -- the slightest move on the bank above & they went dashing off in all directions.
Was very proud that I managed to ID this one myself. Usually I have to go crawling to the experts on BugGuide for help with beetles.
Much darker than average for this species (exposure is pretty true in this shot), but pretty sure that's what it is. 6.8 mm long.
Only 4.0 mm long. NJ record on BugGuide.
7.4 mm. NJ record on BugGuide.
Mottled pink noctuid caterpillar with black spiracles & white tubercules, sparsely hairy. Found on wineberry (Rubus phoenicolasius), though not directly observed eating it. Mixed 2nd-growth deciduous canopy above; can post a couple of shots for tree ID if relevant. The Balabans think probably Heliothinae.

This wine is made from organically-produced grapes. Blackberry, plum and vanilla are found on the nose and accompany enticing crushed cherry aromas which appear in spades. In the mouth berry fruit and spice flavors are underscored by flourishes of orange and apricot. White pepper and dark chocolate notes emerge in the long finish. Rich but soft tannins and firm acidity provide a solid backbone.

"This recipe made some of the best stuffing I've ever eaten. I played around with the seasoning a bit, but the overall technique worked beautifully! Thanks for a recipe that had people fighting over the last few bites."
"I quite enjoyted this recipe. Perhaps cooked it a little longer than I would have liked, but the flavor was incredible. Thank you!"
"Oh my goodness! This is one of the most fantastic recipes I've ever made. It was relatively easy to make - we marinated the meat overnight and then wrapped it in banana leaves before putting it into a disposable foil pan and throwing it on the grill. It cooked for about four hours and was perfectly tender and delicious. Thank you so much! All..."
"Made this for breakfast today and it was awesome! I used what I had handy - some coppa, tomatoes, mushrooms, parsley, green onions, chevre and five eggs - was making this for more than one person! It was all gone pretty quickly."
"Oh my, this was wonderful! Had no clue what to expect as I've never made anything like this before. We all loved this, however noses starting turning up at the mention of hollandaise so I used a mustard cream sauce from a different recipe. My roommates have dubbed this the amazing "fish pocket"."
"Hate to be the naysayer here because I was really excited about this recipe. I had a head of purple cauliflower and wanted to try something different.This was ... different. But not something I would try again. Sorry! There is caramelized and there is overcooked.Wasn't my thing and the two people I planned to serve it to asked me to just t..."
"Hmm ... these were boring to me for the most part, but they cooled my mouth down a little while eating a spicy meal. Don't think I'd make them again, though."
"Loved this! I must admit to adding lots of dried chilies due to a psychotic obsession with spice, but ... hey - the base recipe and the techniques made for a tasty dish. My boyfriend and I were both surprised at how good this was!"
"Simple! Perfect! Delicious!I can't believe I've lived for 30 years without this salad.As a capsicum addict I had to add two fresh chopped serranos - an addition I highly recommend if you like a little spice in your life."
"Easily a 5 star recipe. Initially I wanted to make this more spicy, but I'm glad that I followed your recipe. All of the flavors came together nicely. This is very good - will definitely make it again!"

Burton are off to Wembley
Adam McGurk fired Burton to Wembley as they edged out Southend in a dramatic Sky Bet League Two play-off semi-final.
McGurk's goal separated the sides after the first leg and Burton doubled their advantage early on through Marcus Holness, only for Phil Brown's Shrimpers to hit back through Ryan Leonard and Anthony Straker.
But former Aston Villa youngster McGurk slammed in his 12th goal of the season midway through the second half to make it 2-2 on the day and secure a 3-2 aggregate win and a final date with Fleetwood a week on Monday.
Ben Coker takes the throw in.
Free kick taken by Daniel Bentley.
Caution for Billy Kee.

Discover Ministry Briefing! --> The Best Way To Keep "In The Know"!
This quote from Mark Dever, given at a recent pastors conference on the difference between a Christian and a non-Christian:
The difference between a Christian and non-Christian: When a non-Christian is convicted of sin, he sides with his sin. When a Christian is convicted of sin, he sides with God, against himself."
Do you agree? Is this a good definition?
Please take a moment to leave a comment…
HT: DesiringGod
Hmmmmmm…..I guess none of us would fit the bill then…..
Absolutely wrong. The struggle of Romans 7 attests to that. If that statement were true, none of us would be Christians!
This is not how the Bible defines the Christin!
Not how the Bible spells Christian either:-)
Context is missing. If his point is to define a Christian then it is an inadequate and misleading statement. However, if he is developing a point on conviction of sin, then it becomes a more plausible statement whether completely accurate or not. As it stands here, it is a statement out of context and even a scripture verse out of context can be misconstrued.
Jesus died for all. This was Gods gift to man.It is for anyone who has been drawn by the Holy Spirit.For the saved ALL Sin has been forgiven but we have to acknowledge our sin and ask the Lord to forgive us. Romans 8:1 settels that. For the lost if they never ask for that then for them there is condemnation.
He didn't call it a definition. He said "the difference is…." You are asking if it is a good definition. It doesn't define a Christian but it does highlight a difference between those who follow Christ and those who don't. (Although I also see many in churches who define themselves as Christians and just get mad when convicted of sin and "don't agree with the preacher—but I digress!) I see truth in the statement.

G0tj3nn?Was worth it!
I knew I had to complete this goal before reaching 30, and I now get to say that I did it! I showed up at 1PM but NYPD moved us around so much that someone showing up at 5PM could've been next to me. We were saving our spot around 44th on Broadway but wasn't aware that we had to go through security check. At 3PM, we were moved to 49th and I knew that, with the amount of people there, I wouldn't be around the ball. I went back to 43rd at 5:30PM and was very lucky to have been the first to go through a new security point. They placed us 40 yards away from the ball! I brought a pillow, snacks and drinks. Had a great time!!! 2 years ago

The pool is beautiful and the spa is perfectly appointed and clean. Also the services were very good!
The spa facility is on the small side so it gets a little crowded if there are four or more people trying to change etc!

"Quite frankly, men's rights has become a civil rights issue. When you think of the progress we've made in civil rights, men's rights as it pertains to the family have been neglected."
That quote comes from DadsDivorce.com founder Joseph Cordell's latest Huffington Post column, "Divorce Civil Rights."
Cordell argues that profiling different groups based on skin color, age, disabilities, etc., is not permissible in any realm of society. Yet it happens every day to men and fathers when they walk into a family courtroom.
"It's time a light is shone on the injustice and there be the same sort of concern of fair play that is given other individuals," Cordell writes.
Read the full divorce article and like, tweet, email, share, do whatever you can to help spread the word of this injustice facing dads every day: "Divorce Civil Rights."

I love the hat but what I don't love is that it is front of the Chinese Theater.

Wouldn't be a shame if a small tornado touched down only on the BAH destroying it and leaving everything around it fine...?
always plotting, planning, and looking forward to our next adventure...
We can only hope for a tornado. I agree with everyone that the hat is just in the wrong spot for the studios. As you enter the park all you see is this gigantic hat blocking everything. I hope disney has enough sense to realize this and move it somewhere else. When the hat was first built there used to be some sort of games underneath it. I know that there is still a gift shop, but are the games still there? Why do we need another gift shop smack dab in the middle of the theme park. Look around there is giftshops EVERYWHERE. Is this one truly needed?

they cant take away the hat now
The Chinese theatre was never the icon of the studios. It was the Earful Tower before the hat. I really don't like the hat, and I didn't care for the wand either, so if the hat left it wouldn't bother me.
And to answer to another post I read earlier, it doesn't take that long to change the Icon (years and years), the hat took over in less than one year. It went through several planning phases first, it was originally going to be a dark ride over where LMA is currently located, then they thought about the front of the park near Fantasmic! but next to the Main Entrance, they actually did ballon checks for the two spots, but decided to make it a merchandise point and Icon in the middle of the park.

I don't have a new year's resolution list and I haven't kept any for a long time now because I don't do them anyway. Instead, I have a list of things and projects that I want to do this year.
One item on my list is to read at least 1 book a month. I love to read but I forget about it most of the time because I get distracted easily. I already have some ebooks and audiobooks so it won't be hard. I'm also looking at the free audio books from amblingbooks.com to see if they have any books I can add to my mini library.
Any books you want to recommend?

From Jeff Miller:
His non-surgically repaired pinkie already is in midseason form and training camp is only a few weeks away now.
So why wouldn't Kobe Bryant's entire game be polished?
Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel's show last week, Bryant was at his ultra-cool, savvy best, even bringing along his Olympic gold medal in his pocket.
Bryant also credited his popularity in China to the rise of NBA awareness worldwide, praised the abilities of swimmer Michael Phelps – he said officials should "check him for gills" – and told the fawning audience, "We got a championship ring we want to bring back."
For critics who think Bryant is a little too polished at times, his late-night appearance was just more ammunition.
