Not necessarily, you can curve the sleeve seam to make it smaller or larger over the bicep area:
Whether ModernTailor actually do this or not I'm not sure.
Edited by Sanguis Mortuum - 6/14/12 at 4:19am
You can also give an optional forearm and elbow measurements in the comments of your measurements. For example my measurements say:
looks too long...you have a lot of extra fabric sleeve length wise its bunched up.
X2 the length is way too long man reminds of a time when i used to buy OTR shirts and I would have to buy lengths 34 or 35 to compensate for shoulders and chest muscles etc., but until a tailor measured me i was a true 32inch length and of course when the shirt was built I couldnt believe how well it fit me and how well the shirt moved with me it was an an incredible experience vs OTR.

It looks like some sort of notepad...
I received this in the post this morning.
Any idea's what it is. It doesn't turn on/light up/turn on. I'm currently using it as a pen holder...
It looks like some sort of notepad...
Nope you can't write on it. The black bit is like rubber.

I would've said mousemat, but it's a little small for that.
Looks like a stand for a PDA or phone. I have something similar on my desk at home (but it has USB ports and a card reader built in).
I thought it looked like something you would win at a rubbish awards ceremony

ohh soooo jealous - I want one :-(
crappy phone stand....
Ah, thankyou oh wise ones. Think a pen holder is better!
Is it magnetic? A paper clip holder? And I would take it the rubber bit is so it doesn't get all scratched up
Is it heavy? could be a (L)User Attitude Realignment Tool....

"Transition To Community is encouraging me while at the same time holding me accountable."

Transition to Community - Community Profiles
First of all, I would like to start out with the scripture in Colossians 2:13-15, "When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having cancelled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross."
Mine is a story of great brokenness and divine healing – the kind of healing that can only come from God above and His Son Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. No one on this planet could fix my life. Not my father, not my mother, not my wife, not my children, not a doctor, not a judge. I mean no one!
You see, we are all born into this world into a set of circumstances that mold us and shape us into the kind of individuals that we ultimately become. That is, until we meet Christ and that changes everything!
I was born in Dauphin County and raised in Lancaster County as the son of a truck driving father and a hairdresser for a mother. I guess trucking took my father all over the country so he was rarely home. I'm sure that was not by choice but by design.
It also played a big part in the breaking up of our family when I was very young and one of the reasons we never really went to church. All I know for sure is that my parents loved me but they had their own brokenness to deal with and it became a very difficult environment to grow up in.
I was kind of caught between the reality of my circumstances and a yearning to know why my life was different from kids who were raised in families that stayed together. (Read Entire story....)

America's original Holocaust museum has a new permanent home in Los Angeles that looks like it was beamed into existence from the future. In keeping with the theme, visitors are each assigned a personal iPod Touch to enhance their exploration of the building's mysterious innards.
The Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust (LAMOTH) was the first Holocaust museum in the country, founded in 1961 by survivors learning English at Hollywood High School. They began assembling a collection of personal photos and items and that collection grew into the country's first Holocaust museum. Today, the last living founder of LAMOTH celebrates the grand opening of its new home designed by architect Hagy Belzberg.
... Visitors will be issued an iPod Touch at the door, even those on docent-guided tours. According to the Jewish Journal, unlike the Museum of Tolerance, "where every visitor experiences the museum in largely the same sequence, visitors to the new Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust will be able to choose their own paths through the exhibits ... nearly every photograph, artifact or replica on display is labeled with a number that must be dialed into the museum's iPod to access audio explanations of its significance."

Why Are Bad Habits Hard To Break?

NEW YORK (CBS NEWS) - What's your poison, your addiction? Is it legal or illegal? Whatever it is you're hooked on, from coffee to cocaine, smoking pot to pigging out, Nora Volkow has your number. She's the head of the National Institute on Drug Abuse. For three decades now, Volkow has been looking — literally — into the brains of addicts: not just hard drug users, but smokers and overeaters too. Nobody knows more about how we get hooked and why bad habits are so hard to break. Dr. Volkow grew up in Mexico in a family with a famous ancestor and a tragic history. She's made history herself by challenging many of the old ideas about our addiction to addiction.

Exiting DVICE
For the past five years, I've been editor of Syfy's technology site, this thing you're reading called DVICE. Yep, I'm the guy responsible for all those typos and grammatical errors you see from time to time (prepositions were never my strong suit). But I'm also responsible for the site's character and how it covers technology, something I'm very proud of. Today is my last day as DVICE Editor.
Since DVICE first launched in January 2006 (without even a name — it was simply called "SCI FI Tech" until November 2007), the site has done its best to look at today's most interesting tech from a different perspective than other sites. Instead of just passing on information about the latest cool gadget or big breakthrough, we distill what it means and imagine how it's going to affect our lives five, 10 or 50 years down the road. We take a realistic look at anything with a big "WOW" factor, and we do it with a bit of humor (sometimes more than a bit). At its best, DVICE is the first draft of the future.
It's been a fantastic job to oversee a site that's immersed in that kind of wonder on a daily basis. But the journey would have been a lot more difficult and a lot less fun if I didn't have an immensely talented crew of contributors. Without fail, they spot the best tech stories, break them down, reassemble them in the DVICE machine, and write about them in less time than it probably took you to read this paragraph. They're that good. They actually might be robots.
Hats off to the gang at Syfy for being incredibly supportive. DVICE simply wouldn't exist without them, or if it did it would look like your cat-loving aunt Tabitha's blog on WordPress, just with worse graphics. The Syfy team makes everything shiny and nice, and it's been an honor to work with such consummate pros — especially since they're all really, really good looking.
Obviously, DVICE isn't going anywhere (just me… over to PCMag, if you're curious), and that's great news. The site's in good hands, and its best years are doubtlessly ahead of it. I look forward to encountering its stories as a reader. When some bit of tech news hits, I'll be asking, "What does DVICE think of this?" That's really the question I've always been hoped you, the readers, would ask, so if you ever have, you should know that you've helped make my time here worthwhile. Thanks for that.
Take care of yourself, DVICE — see you in the comments!

North Royalton Bears: Team News
North Royalton loses the battle of the Bears, fall to Jackson 6-2
The North Royalton Bears lost to the Jackson Polar Bears, 6-2, in league play on Wednesday, December 17th at Center Ice in Canton, OH. North Royalton came out quick and controlled play throughout the opening period outshooting Jackson 11 to 6 but still found themselves trailing, 2-1, at the end of the 1st period. The Bears 1st period goal was scored by Nick Magro with assists being awarded to Brian Fielding and Dylan Kovach. The 2nd period did not go any better for the Bears whose defensive struggles continued as they surrendered 3 goals on only 9 shots against. Trailing, 5-1, entering the final period the Bears replaced their net minder pulling Joey Fratantonio (11 saves/16 shots) and replacing him with freshman, Collin Mischak (11 saves/12 shots). The goaltending switch seemed to spark the Bears, albeit briefly, as they came out flying to start the 3rd scoring in the opening minute of the period. North Royalton's goal was scored by Dylan Kovach assisted by Jacob Krosky and Nick Magro. Jackson weathered the Bears early flurry and netted their 6th and final goal midway through the final period. The loss drops the Bears to 3-3 in the North Coast HS Hockey League and 10-5-1 overall.

Bears split weekend games; defeat Euclid, fall to Medina.
The North Royalton Bears needed overtime to get passed the Euclid Vikings, 3-2, on Saturday, December 13th. The score was hardly a representation of how close the game actually was as the Bears outshot the Vikings 57-16. Euclid scored the game's first goal, on the power play, with just under a minute remaining in the opening period and took the lead into the break. North Royalton answered halfway through the middle frame when Jeremy Gripp's shot from the blue line snuck by the Euclid net minder. The Bears took the, lead early in the final period, when newcomer Colin O'Connor buried a Jeremy Gripp rebound for his 1st goal in a Bears uniform. Despite only tallying six shots in the final period Euclid was able to get one of them past Bears keeper, Collin Mischak, to tie the game at two apiece. North Royalton's Nicolai Kolasinski scored the game winner for the Bears taking and burying a nice feed from Dylan Kovach. Kolasinski's goal was a special one, not just because it was an OT game winner, but because just a shift earlier he sustained an arm injury that ultimately landed him in the emergency room.
The Bears took to the ice on December 14th, facing off against rival Media in league play, falling to the Bees, 6-0. The two teams battled through a hard hitting and fast paced opening period with Medina netting the only goal. Medina found the net for their second score just a minute into the middle period and the score remained, 2-0 Medina for most of the period. With just under 90 seconds remaining in the period the Bees exploded scoring three times in just 88 seconds to take a commanding 5-0 lead. Medina added their 6th and final score of the game midway through the final period. Despite giving up six goals, many on 2nd and 3rd shot attempts, junior net minder Joey Fratantonio played very well stopping 32 of 38 shots in the loss.
The Bears overall record now sits at 10-4-1, 3-2 in the North Coast HS Hockey League.
Monday, December 8
Bears dominate weekend, improve to 9-3-1 overall.
The North Royalton Bears improved their record to 9-3-1 overall and 2-1 in the North Coast HS Hockey League with three victories this past weekend.
The Bears topped the Great Lakes Freeze in non-league play on Friday, December 5th, 11-1, at Kent State University. After an early goal by the Freeze, North Royalton answered with 11 straight tallies. Anthony Picciano and Cam Cook each netted hat tricks while five other Bears added single scores. Freshman, Collin Mischak, played well in net for the Bears stopping 14 of the 15 shots faced.
North Royalton returned to action on December 6th skating against the Euclid Vikings in league play. Senior Captain Paul Jablonski led the way for the Bears, who cruised to a 10-2 victory, with three goals and 2 assists.
Next up for the Bears, on December 7th, were the Ohio City Wildcats. North Royalton picked up right where they left off just a night earlier, scoring 9 times en route to a 9-0 win over the visiting Wildcats. Cam Cook continued to impress netting another hat trick, giving him 10 goals on the season. Timmy Orlosky and Jacob Krosky each showed they can do more than just score goals as the pair each earned 3 assists on the night. Junior net minder, Joey Fratantonio, picked up his 2nd shutout and 4th win on the season playing solid between the pipes for the Bears.
Next up, the Bears will play a pair of games at OBM Arena- December 13th v. Euclid at 840pm and December 14th v. Medina at 5:30pm.

Monday, November 24
Tough weekend for NR; Bears lose three, tie one.
The North Royalton Bears hockey team struggled mightily this weekend, playing four games in just two days, losing three of them and tying the other. The Bears hoping to get a jump on their season packed the weekend with quality opponents but perhaps bit off more than they could chew. The Bears opened up at Center Ice in Canton on Saturday, November 22nd against Jackson falling to the Polar Bears 5-1. North Royalton out shot the Polar Bears, 37-22, but could only muster a lone goal which came in the middle period scored by Timmy Orlosky and assisted by Jacob Krosky and Paul Jablonski. The Bears used two goaltenders in the loss; Danny Fielding (11/14) got the start and was replaced by Joey Fratantonio (6/8) with 6 minutes remaining in the second.
North Royalton returned home, to OBM Arena, for an evening game on the 22nd facing off against Fremont and falling, 6-4, to the Ice Wolves. The Bears got on the board first when Paul Jablonski scored on the power play assisted by Jacob Krosky and Timmy Orlosky. After Fremont tied the game, Royalton added the next two- Orlosky netted the first assisted by Jablonski and Krosky and Anthony Picciano add the next one assisted by Nicolai Kolasinski and Michael Schlegel. Fremont closed the gap only to see the Bears take another two goal lead when Schlegel fed Cam Cook who blasted a shot from the point past the Ice Wolves net minder. North Royalton's defensive struggles continued as they surrendered the next four goals, one at the end of the 2nd and three in the final period. Danny Fielding got the start and struggled, giving up 5 goals on just 19 shots , which led to his being replaced by Joey Fratantonio who played the final 10 minutes giving up 1 goal on 8 shots.
The Bears headed to Gilmour on November 23rd to take on Kenston in non-league play falling to the Bombers 5-2. Kenston jumped out to an early 3-0 lead scoring 3 goals on their first 12 shots before North Royalton answered with one of their own. Eric Golla, assists to Nick Magro and Brian Fielding, tapped in a loose puck with 26 seconds remaining in the middle period however the excitement was short lived as just 15 seconds later Kenston added their fourth of the game. The Bombers added their fifth goal early in the 3rd leading to a Bears goalie change. North Royalton netted their 2nd of the game midway through the final period, on the power play, when Nicolai Kolasinski (assists to Magro and Paul Jablonski) knocked home a loose puck.
North Royalton completed their 4 game weekend on Sunday evening at the Pond in Auburn skating to a, 4-4, tie vs. the Orange Lions. The Lions got on the board first midway through the opening period and held a 1-0 lead until just under a minute when Mike Ambrose netted a score from the slot assisted by Nicolai Kolasinski and Jeremy Gripp. Each team scored two in the middle period- the Bears goals were scored by Brian Fielding (assisted by Eric Golla and Nick Magro) and Paul Jablonski (assisted by Timmy Orlosky and Jacob Krosky). The two teams entered the final period tied at three and each added another goal, the Bears goal was scored by Kolasinski with assists being awarded to Ambrose and Cam Cook. Collin Mischak provided the Bears with solid play between the pipes, something North Royalton hadn't seen all weekend, stopping 33 of the 37 shots faced.
After the weekend, the Bears now sit at 2-3-1 overall and 1-1 in the North Coast HS Hockey League.

2014/15 North Royalton Hockey Preview
North Royalton Bears- 2014-15
Recap of 2013-14:
The North Royalton Bears finished the 2013-14 season with an impressive 37-19-1 overall record, placed 2nd (lost 1-0 to the Jackson Polar Bears) in the USA Hockey, Ohio HS State Championships and a top 8 finisher at USA Hockey HS National Championships.
Outlook for 2014-15:
The 2014-15 North Royalton Bears believe they have what it takes to make another run at a USA Hockey, Ohio HS State Championship and will attempt to do so with a number of new players. The Bears lost 16 players from last season's 37 win team, however, feel they have added the right pieces to contend. There are 12 players that will wear a North Royalton jersey for the first time this season joining a solid core of 10 returners. This season's team is making defense a priority and will focus heavily on their defensive zone play. The team recognizes that in a league as strong as thiers puck management and strong defense are integral to a team's success.
The Bears will look to their new additions to replace the offense lost from last season's team as the Bears said goodbye to 84% (208/248) of their goals scored from a year earlier.
Timmy Orlosky (Junior/Strongsville HS)
Harrison Zeller (Junior/Revere HS)
Eric Golla (Sophomore/North Royalton HS)
Matt Brewer (Sophomore/ North Royalton HS)
Christian Fernandez (Sophomore/ North Royalton HS)
Paul Jablonski (Senior/Mayfield HS)
Nicolai Kolasinski (Senior/Walsh Jesuit HS)
Mike Ambrose
(Senior/Aurora HS) Jacob Krosky (Junior/Strongsville HS) Anthony Picciano (Junior/Strongsville HS) Brian Fielding (Junior/Avon HS) Tyler Cimperman (Freshman/Garfield Heights HS)
The Bears return 5 of their top 6 defenseman from last season's team, a team that surrendered less than 2.5 goals per game.
Returners: Preston Vinyard (Senior/Normandy HS) Jeremy Gripp (Junior/North Royalton HS) Michael Schlegel (Junior/St. Ignatius HS) Logan Kieklak (Sophomore/ North Royalton HS) Christian Fernandez (Sophomore/ North Royalton HS) Additions: Nick Magro (Junior/St. Joe's, Fremont) Cam Cook (Junior/St. Ignatius)
Promising Newcomers:
North Royalton will introduce a trio of goaltenders this season, all in their first year with the Bears and all capable of playing meaningful minutes. Joey Fratantonio (Junior/Revere HS) Danny Fielding (Freshman/Avon HS) and Collin Mischak (Freshman/Cuyahoga Heights HS) will all see time between the pipes for the Bears.
Source of optimism:
The Bears seem to have a renewed hunger and a balanced roster with 12 new players and 10 returners. The team has come together quickly and their chemistry is solid.
Cause for concern:
The Bears graduated both of their goaltenders and 84% of their total goals scored from last season's team.
Did you know?:
The North Royalton Bears have won an astounding 105 games over the last four seasons including a team record, 37 wins, last season. During that four year period, the Bears have won approximately 60% of their games compiling a 105-64-12 record along the way.

North Royalton wins home opener!
The North Royalton Bears downed the Great Lakes Freeze, 6-2, in North Coast HS Hockey League play on November 16, 2014 at OBM Arena in Strongsville. The Bears got on the board twice in the opening period, both scores coming from Jacob Krosky – his first he buried, unassisted, from the slot and his second he finished a feed from Paul Jablonski. North Royalton added to their lead early in the middle period when Timmy Orlosky tapped in a beautiful pass from Jablonski back door; Krosky also picked up an assist on the goal. Krosky added the Bears fourth goal of the game, his third, just a minute later with assists being awarded to Orlosky and Jablonski.

Walsh signs junior contract, will play for the Southern Tier Xpress
The Southern Tier Xpress, a Junior Hockey team in Jamestown NY, made their final cuts Monday morning and North Royalton's Branden Walsh secured his spot on the roster. The Xpress, playing in the North American 3 Hockey League, had more than 70 participants try out for the team. Twenty-six players made the team, with players from as far as Sweden and Russia locking up spots on the roster. The team will be playing its home games at the Jamestown Savings Bank Ice Arena, with the home opener slated for Sept. 6.
"Walsh made it off merit and earned it- we were happy to offer him a contract," Xpress coach Rylan Galiardi said. "He fit the mold as far as the culture we want to set here- If you don't have work ethic and character, you can't play for us."
Walsh, a 2014 North Royalton High School graduate, played his four high school years with the North Royalton Bears Hockey team- a USA Hockey High School Varsity program. "Branden's impact on the North Royalton hockey program has been huge; in his 4 years on the team we have won 105 games, been to the USA Hockey Ohio State Championships 3 times and just last year placed in the top 8 at the USA Hockey High School National Championships," said Bears coach Jeff McCarthy. McCarthy added, "It will be an odd feeling for me this year as this will be my 5th season behind the bench for North Royalton and my first without Walsh, he will most definitely be missed as a leader off the ice as well as for his on ice production."
Walsh has been the Bears most prolific scorer in team history and holds team records in career goals (134), career assists (160) and career points (294).

Bears fall in quarterfinals; finish in top 8 at Nationals.
North Royalton hockey has a lot to be proud of this season; the Bears finished the season as the USA Hockey, Ohio State High School Championship Runner-Up, placed in the top 8 at the 2014 USA Hockey, High School Hockey National Championships and won a team best 37 games this season.
North Royalton qualified for Nationals as a result of their solid play in the USA Hockey, Ohio High School State Championships where they placed second, falling to the Jackson Polar Bears in the State Championship game, 1-0. The National tournament featured the top 32 USA Hockey High School Varsity teams from across the country battling for the National Championship. The tournament featured 8 different pools of 4 teams each with every team playing a 3 game round robin within its own pool. North Royalton's pool included Stoneman Douglas HS (FLA), Alton HS (MO) and Lake Central HS (IN).
The Bears kicked off their week at the National Championships with an embarrassing, 8-2, loss to Stoneman Douglas (FLA) Eagles on Wednesday, March 26th. "It was our worst performance in quite some time" said North Royalton head coach Jeff McCarthy. "Sadly, we just looked happy to have been invited." The Bears found themselves trailing 3-0 after the opening frame but managed to get on the board early in the 2nd when Branden Walsh buried a Michael Dzoba feed; also assisting on the goal was Aaron Schmitt. In picking up the helper, Dzoba eclipsed the 100 point mark on the season- a feat that Walsh had accomplished just a few games earlier. The Bears didn't seem to gain any momentum with their score as they surrendered three more Eagles goals before adding another one of their own- Walsh again scored with assists being awarded to Dzoba and freshman, Logan Kieklak. The Bears entered the final period trailing 6-2 and showed little fight giving up two more Stoneman Douglas goals.
North Royalton looked like a new group in their 2nd game of the tournament on March 27th, settling in and defeating the Alton (MO) Redbirds, 6-2. The Bears took the early lead when Branden Walsh scored his third of the tourney, this one on the power play, assisted by Steven Vinyard and Aaron Wynbrandt. The Redbirds evened the score at one apiece midway through the 1st period only to see the Bears take a lead they would never give back as Walsh beat the Alton keeper back door assisted by Michael Dzoba. The Bears took a 2-1 lead into intermission and came out flying in the middle period scoring the next two goals. Angelo Nero buried the Bears 3rd goal of the game from the slot assisted by Timmy Orlosky and AJ Bogdan and Michael Dzoba deposited the Bears 4th goal assisted by Walsh. Alton scored late in the period to cut the lead to two entering the break. North Royalton came out in the final period with purpose and scored two more to extend their lead to 6-2. Aaron Wynbrtandt crashed the net hard and was rewarded for his efforts tapping home a Dzoba feed, also assisting on the goal was Walsh and AJ Bogdan capped off the scoring for the Bears with just two minutes to play in the game assisted by Nero.
The Bears needed two things to happen on day three, March 28th; a win in their 3rd game of pool play and an Alton win over Stoneman Douglas to clinch the pool and make it to the quarter finals; they got both! The Bears left little doubt that their opening game loss was a fluke defeating the Lake Central (IN) Indians, 6-1. "We picked a good time to execute on the power play, we struggled all year with the man advantage but not today" said Coach McCarthy referencing the fact that all six of the Bears goals were scored on the power play. Michael Dzoba scored the Bears first goal assisted by Aaron Schmitt and Steven Vinyard and Schmitt added North Royalton's 2nd goal with assists being awarded to AJ Bogdan and Branden Walsh. Schmitt's goal was his 100th point of the season putting him with his linemates Branden Walsh and Michael Dzoba as the only three Bears in North Royalton hockey history to eclipse the century mark in a single season. The Bears put the game away in the middle frame scoring four times to take a commanding 6-0 lead into the final period. Branden Walsh scored the Bears 3rd goal assisted by Dzoba and the 4th goal assisted by Dzoba and Angelo Nero. Timmy Orlosky scored the Bears 5th, tapping home a Nero rebound, also assisting on the goal was freshman, Christian Fernandez. Nero capped the Bears scoring at six with less than a minute to play scoring a beauty assisted by Dzoba and Jeremy Gripp. North Royalton did their part, defeating Lake Central, but still needed some help and thankfully they got it as Alton scored nine times to defeat Stoneman Douglas, 9-7.
The Bears as a result of their win and a Stoneman Douglas loss clinched their pool and a berth in the quarterfinals where they would face off against the Des Moines (IA) Oak Leafs. The Bears took to the ice on March 29th for their quarterfinal matchup falling, 6-1, to the Des Moines (IA) Oak Leafs. "We have nothing to hang our heads about, we went further than any team from our home state and lost to arguably the deepest team we have played all season" said Coach McCarthy after the loss. The Bears hung tough for most of the game thanks in large part to their senior tender, Tyler Roesch, who led the tournament in shots against and saves made. In regards to his keeper, McCarthy beamed, "without Tyler, we're not here- it's that simple- Tyler stepped up big time, his performance throughout States and now Nationals makes him MVP of our club- no doubt about it." Scoring the lone goal for North Royalton was senior Branden Walsh, his goal putting him in a tie for 1st on the Nationals leaderboard for goals and tied for 3rd in points with 10 tallied in the tournament.
The Bears finish the 2013-14 season, their most successful season in team history, with an overall record of 37-19-1.
