UConn rescinds its offer to Logan Marchi
Former St. Paul All-Stater will explore options
|Former St. Paul quarterback Logan Marchi. (RA)
WINSTED — As of Friday morning, current Gilbert Yellowjacket and former St. Paul Falcon Logan Marchi seemed to have the best of all worlds.
Not only was he coming back home to Winchester to play basketball in a gym he has watched countless games over his life, he was only a few days away from signing a letter of intent with the UConn football team.
It was to be a dream month for the former Falcon, who lit up the Nau¬gatuck Valley League during his time with Jude Kelly and St Paul.
Marchi, who transfered to Gilbert during the holiday break for financial reasons, passed for over 3,000 yards and 38 touchdowns in his senior year and seemed to be primed as the next local kid who would live out his fanta¬sy by playing Division I football at UConn.
On Friday, though, that dream was put on hold as Huskies offensive coor¬dinator Mike Cummings called to tell Marchi that things had changed.
"Coach Cummings called and said that the university had de-committed their offer to me," Marchi said. "It was a pretty fast conversation in which he said it was an admissions decision."
UConn hired Bob Diaco after a dis¬appointing 3-9 season, and with him came a new coaching staff with the exception of offensive line coach Mike Foley. So it made sense that some changes may be coming.
Losing recruits was a possibility along with the new staff declining to bring in some of the players recruited by former head coach Paul Pasqualoni but this came as a shock to Marchi who spent many a year at UConn camps.
"I had been going to UConn camps since I was about seven years old," Marchi said. "I went to those early camps with Randy Edsall and then later with Pasqualoni."
Before he committed to play for the Huskies, Marchi had heard from sev¬eral other American Athletic Confer¬ence teams.
"Two days before I heard from UConn, Temple had made me an of¬fer," Marchi said. "I also heard from Rutgers."
What's next for Marchi?
First, he will continue to help the Gilbert basketball team from the sidelines until he is eligible to play on Feb. 21, at Litchfield.
Marchi, who has to sit out 10 games due to the transfer, will also miss the second meeting against cross-town ri¬val Northwestern on Feb. 14 .
"Logan has been a big help already for us," Gilbert coach Mark Douglass said. "He gives us another experi¬enced player who can help us down the stretch. He gives us a different perspective on some of the teams we may see when we get to the states."
Marchi played center for the Fal¬cons, but expects to be used in a dif¬ferent role with his hometown team.
"I think I will be used in more of a utility role to start for Gilbert," Marchi said. "They have got some skilled players like Yoharky (Sarmiento) who know how to play the game."
Since finding out the disappointing news, Marchi didn't let on to his coach or teammates this weekend when the Yellowjackets hosted Torrington on Saturday.
"He didn't let on at all to us this weekend," Douglas said. "He has a toughness to him and we expect him to bring some leadership to the team as well."
Marchi has grown into a mature young man who has a strong support network that he will lean on to get him through this tough spot.
"I talked with Coach Kelly (Jude, Falcons coach) and he told me to stay positive, things happen for a reason."
At St Paul, Marchi learned more than just X's and O's, he learned what it took to be successful in life.
"We had a dress code at St Paul, we learned about the little things," Marchi said. "Coach Kelly taught us what it takes to not only be a good player but what it takes to be a good man."
After the basketball season wraps up, spring will bring an opportunity to play baseball or golf for Marchi, but for now he will take a deep breath and re-examine his options.

Charlie Hodgson returns at fly-half in the Saracens side to face London Wasps in Sunday's Aviva Premiership clash at Vicarage Road.
It will be high-flying Saracens' first match of the season in Watford having previously enjoyed home matches at Twickenham, Wembley Stadium and in Brussels.
Hodgson returns at No.10 while Chris Wyles, James Short and Kameli Ratuvou come into the backline. In the forwards, Matt Stevens switches to loosehead prop while Carlos Nieto starts at tighthead.
Schalk Brits, who joins up with the South African touring squad after the match, is named at hooker. Ernst Joubert and Andy Saull make up the back row along with new Scotland captain Kelly Brown.
Owen Farrell, Brad Barritt, Chris Ashton, Mouritz Botha, Alex Goode and Mako Vunipola are unavailable due to England call-ups. Rhys Gill misses the game through injury.
Meanwhile, London Wasps have made five changes to the starting line-up which defeated London Welsh with a bonus point last weekend, in what was a fourth consecutive win for Wasps.
There is a new centre pairing in Chris Bell and Elliot Daly, with Lee Thomas unfortunately missing out with a dead leg, while Andrea Masi, who has been in Italy, national team training for much of this week, is named in the replacements. Charlie Davies comes in at scrum-half for the injured Joe Simpson in the other change in the backs, while up front T Rhys Thomas starts at hooker and James Haskell returns, having missed last week with illness, to start in the number seven shirt.
Saracens: 15 Chris Wyles, 14 David Strettle, 13 Joel Tomkins, 12 Kameli Ratuvou, 11 James Short, 10 Charlie Hodgson, 9 Richard Wigglesworth, 8 Ernst Joubert, 7 Andy Saull, 6 Kelly Brown, 5 Alistair Hargreaves, 4 Steve Borthwick (c), 3 Carlos Nieto, 2 Schalk Brits, 1 Matt Stevens.
Replacements: 16 John Smit, 17 Nick Auterac, 18 Petrus du Plessis, 19 George Kruis, 20 Will Fraser, 21 Neil de Kock, 22 Nils Mordt, 23 Joe Maddock.
London Wasps: 15 Hugo Southwell (c), 14 Tom Varndell, 13 Elliot Daly, 12 Chris Bell, 11 Christian Wade, 10 Nick Robinson, 9 Charlie Davies, 8 Billy Vunipola, 7 James Haskell, 6 Ashley Johnson, 5 Marco Wentzel, 4 Joe Launchbury, 3 Zak Taulafo, 2 T Rhys Thomas, 1 Tim Payne.
Replacements: 16 Tom Lindsay, 17 Phil Swainston, 18 Simon McIntyre, 19 James Cannon, 20 Jonathan Poff, 21 Jonah Holmes, 22 Tommy Bell, 23 Andrea Masi.
What they said...
Wasps boss Dai Young
"While it's good to be heading to play Saracens with some momentum behind us, we're not under any illusions as to how much improvement we will have to make this weekend.
"They will be missing a few players but to be honest, they have such a good squad that we know the guys coming in will be doing everything they can to stake a claim to the shirt. They are a side who know how to win and we need to step up massively to take anything out of the game."

This article hurts your case. Also, remember, the 360 had a 1 year head start on the PS3, and PS3 STILL will outsell the 360. Not to mention this article states the PS3 has a 51% market share, with the 360 37%.
I don't see any reference to a specific number of PS3 consoles sold, just a blatant claim that the 360 outsold the PS3.
Again, a LOT of people in the US play the PS3. A LOT of people that I knew were XBOX fanboys are completely jumping ship to the PS4 because you know what, its better.
Sony listens, and came up with a brilliant new console and implementations.
PS4 is cheaper, better hardware, and no restrictions. I think people forget how dominant Sega was in the console business back in the '90's, and when one of their new consoles failed hardcore, they couldn't recover. The dreamcast was good, but their image was tarnished.
Microsoft might be in for a rude awakening here.
You do know that the xbox market is practically non existent in Japan and most of Asia right? So in a sense i does matter. The US buys more Xbox than Playstations and the Playstation just kicks the living crap out of the xbox in the Asian market. Still, until only a few weeks the Xbox was still the world leader in sold consoles. That should tell you how strong the Xbox is in the US and the rest of the world.
Wow... it's $100 more expensive! Sure that will be it's doom! Sony did ok, plus... the Xbox Elite went for the same $499 and sold by the ****loads. I am a gamer. The better games and best multiplayer experience is on the Xbox as of this e3.
I guess you would be lazy for google so here you go:
Just days before we get our first look at the next-generation Xbox, Microsofts Xbox 360 continues to dominate the U.S. video game industry.
The latest numbers from NPD market research firm are out and the Xbox 360 was the top-selling console in April, marking the 28th straight month atop the U.S. console market.
Microsoft sold 130,000 Xbox 360′s last month down 50 percent from last month and also led all consoles in total retail spend (hardware, software and accessories) at $208 million. The Xbox 360 also had six of the top 10 console game titles for March, though Gears of War was the sole Xbox-only game on the list.
Now no enough info... or maybe you must think everybody makes those numbers up. Maybe you can try getting the info on the NPD website:
On a last note. Sure, it's a little restrictive on the used games subject (one that in time Sony will move to), but whining about constant INTERNET connection? I found this article on the sight and found it very interesting. Microsoft changed the game when it made you turn to a broadband connection to be able to play on Xbox live. This is something similar. But keep on hating.
Video Game Consoles Will Remain the Most Prominent Connected TV Device
PORT WASHINGTON, NEW YORK, JUNE 6, 2013 By 2015 there will be an estimated 119 million connected devices, including the TV, delivering broadband Internet to TVs in U.S. homes, a 51 percent increase from the 78.5 million currently Internet connected today, according to a new report from global information company, The NPD Group.

A new strain of Clostridium difficile (C. diff) has been detected in Scotland recently. Reports say the same has concerned health experts even more than before they were with other forms of strains of the virus.
It is being said by a microbiologist Professor Thomas Riley that the strain may lead the country to face a much darker time. Since, the strain named as ribotype 244 is more lethal than any other strain. Despite giving patients an effective treatment, it is likely to kill its victim often.
The report finds that the strain for the family of the 027 strain, which was previously thought to be the most infectious. It had led to an outbreak at Dunbartonshire's Vale of Leven Hospital in 2007-08. A first case has already been reported in Scotland this week.
The patient was referred to two different hospices for treatment and was then diagnosed with robotype 244. Testing the strain for its potential, it was found that it is likely to spread wider in the UK. Therefore, the University of Western Australia researchers have been suggesting hospital staff to take care of patients who show any signs of the fatal virus.
"We will keep a close eye on it and monitor it very closely", said healthcare scientist at Health Protection Scotland Dr. Camilla Wiuff.

ProShares Launches First Volatility ETFs
ProShares, a premier provider of alternative exchange traded funds (ETFs), today announced the launch of the first Volatility ETFs. The ProShares VIX Short-Term Futures (VIXY) and VIX Mid-Term Futures (VIXM) ETFs provide exposure to equity market volatility by seeking to match the performance of their respective VIX futures indexes, before fees and expenses. Both ETFs will list today on NYSE Arca.
"Until now, to access volatility, many investors have considered exchange traded notes (ETNs), which subject them to the credit risk of the note's issuer," said Michael L. Sapir, Chairman and CEO of ProShare Capital Management, the sponsor of the funds. "Now, for the first time, investors can access volatility with a U.S. exchange traded fund."
VIXY is linked to the performance of the S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures™ Index, which targets a constant, weighted-average term of one month. VIXM is linked to the performance of the S&P 500 VIX Mid-Term Futures™ Index, which targets a constant, weighted-average term of five months.
About ProSharesProShares is a premier provider of alternative ETFs. The firm offers 114 ETFs with nearly $24 billion 1 in assets. The ProShares lineup includes the world's largest family of geared (leveraged and inverse) ETFs. 2 ProShares is part of ProFunds Group, which was founded in 1997 and manages nearly $31 billion 1 in mutual fund and ETF assets. About VIX and VIX Futures Indexes The CBOE Volatility Index® (VIX) is a widely followed measure of the expected volatility of the S&P 500. Since the VIX is not directly investable, S&P 500 volatility exposure is often achieved through VIX futures. Each of the VIX futures indexes measures the movements of a combination of VIX futures and is designed to track changes in the expectation for VIX over a specific time window in the future. As a result, the VIX futures indexes, and VIXY and VIXM, can be expected to perform differently than the VIX.

Justin Moore, 'Lettin' the Night Roll' [Listen]
Justin Moore's big country voice shines during the final choruses of 'Lettin' the Night Roll,' the second single from 'Off the Beaten Path.' His loyal fans will recognize the performance, and fans of country music will recognize the story he tells.
Album Spotlight: Joe Nichols, 'Crickets'
'Crickets' is a fine way to describe Joe Nichols' new album. The singer aims for a relax-on-the-riverbank vibe with many of the mid-tempo cuts on this project. The album begins and ends with crickets ( literally), and in between it offers a fairly level ride.
Album Spotlight: Randy Travis, 'Influence Vol. 1: The Man I Am'
Randy Travis' 'Influence Vol. 1: The Man I Am' is a simple collection of covers from artists that inspired him. Merle Haggard is the most represented singer, with eight cuts influenced by or recorded by him at some point. Three of the first four are Haggard songs, with 'What Have You Got Planned Tonight Diana' being the one to remember.
Lady Antebellum, 'Compass' [Listen]
Lady Antebellum have found a new direction for their blend of pop-flavored harmonies. 'Compass' walks into the forest of alt-bluegrass that's quickly growing in popularity. Heavy banjo and mandolin drive a foot-stomping beat as the group sings about staying true to one's heart.
Florida Georgia Line, 'Stay' [Listen]
'Stay' is the most important song of Florida Georgia Line's young career. The heartbreaker finds the two cocksure men bleeding and knocked down a few steps from the truck bed they confidently stood in for their first three singles. To sustain a lengthy country music career, Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard need to prove they're a well-rounded duo.
Rachel Farley, 'Midnight Road' [Listen]
Rachel Farley flirts with the role of country music's next bad girl in her new single 'Midnight Road.' In the end, the country-rocker plays it safe, but she leaves enough to catch one's attention.
Album Spotlight: Billy Currington, 'We Are Tonight'
Billy Currington adds a pinch of rock, two tablespoons of R&B and a heavy dose of soul to his new 'We Are Tonight' album. The result is a project that tastes different, but remains true to a sound he's cultivated over the last decade.
Little Big Town, 'Sober' [Listen]
Little Big Town's new single 'Sober' is a sweet love song bathed in four-part harmonies reminiscent of the group's most popular cuts from the mid '00s. After three edgier singles, the quartet lightens up.
Leah Turner, 'Take the Keys' [Listen]
Heavy production stamps Leah Turner's debut single 'Take the Keys.' The love story is thick with effects and vocal reverb, but really, the time has never been more right for this type of song.
Album Spotlight: Sheryl Crow, 'Feels Like Home'
Sheryl Crow didn't need to change much to fit in with Nashville's top female vocalists, and on the best songs from her 'Feels Like Home' album, she didn't. An easy (no pun intended), direct delivery serves the "newcomer" well.
Hank Williams, Jr. (Feat. Merle Haggard), 'I Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink' [Listen]
Hank Williams, Jr. and Merle Haggard collaborate for a remake of Haggard's early '80s hit, 'I Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink,' and turn it into half the song it used to be -- literally. The new version is half as long, but fans will say it's every bit as rebellious.
Keith Urban (Feat. Miranda Lambert), 'We Were Us' [Listen]
Two artists not known for their duets come together on Keith Urban's 'We Were Us.' The second single from 'Fuse' features Miranda Lambert as co-lead vocalist. It'd be woefully inaccurate to call this simply a "guest appearance," as it's her voice that opens the song.

Sometimes it's really easy to take the path of least resistance, especially when you are comfortable and things are convenient. You've done it right? We've all done it at some point in our lives. At some point, you made a decision to stop there, either temporarily (until you realized what you were actually doing) or permanently. Either way, at some point, you decided that you weren't going any further. Be it a job, a spouse or lifestyle, many people just stop in mid air. You were soaring to new heights in your life and all of the sudden you stopped. What happened?
You fell in love and you thought love was enough to make up for the lack of everything else that you really need in a relationship. Or, once you got a nice salary and benefits, plus the work environment is everything you've ever wanted, you decide to chill as an employee instead of diving into that business you want to start. Or perhaps you are a spiritual person; someone who is tuned in to the rhythm of life and God and you believe that there is deeper and greater truth than what you've been told, but you settle – because it's easier to just be told who and what God is rather than to search for yourself.
So what's the deeper issue?
There are some who believe that what they have is all that they are able to get so they stop there. And there are others who are afraid of stepping out into the unknown. Fear is one of the main reasons why people settle. If you've settled into a job or career that's unfulfilling, you may fear that the cost of following your dreams and starting your own business is too great. If you've settled in a relationship that's unfulfilling, you may fear that you will end up alone if you try to do better. If you've settled for a religion or spiritual perspective that is unfulfilling, you may have been taught to fear learning anything outside of what that doctrine teaches. In any case, fear will always cause you to stop dead in your tracks and it will always cause you to feel trapped, empty and alone, even while in a relationship or surrounded by people. Fear creates illusion and suffocates its victims. It grips and stagnates you until you either see it for what it is and overcome it, or until it kills your dreams, peace and joy.
Ultimately, we settle for less when we don't know who we are, what we're worth or what we're really capable of. So the way to remedy that is to simply know thy self. When you know who you are, what you are worth and what you are capable of achieving, then fear cannot hold you back and you will not settle for less than what you were created to be, do and have.
So how do you find out who you are, what you're worth and what you're really capable of?
The first step is to understand what you currently believe about yourself that is keeping you trapped in unfulfilling circumstances. This is where introspection comes in handy. When you take the time to examine the thoughts that you think on a regular basis, you get a pretty good idea about who you think you are.
For example, if your thoughts are negative and self-condemming most of the time, then that tells you that you have a belief in your subconscious mind that is working against you. You may subconsciously believe that you aren't good enough, smart enough, attractive enough, talented enough, loved enough etc. You may also find that you're deeply angry about something that may have happened a long time ago that you never got over. Many negative thoughts about ourselves and others are rooted in unresolved anger and unforgiveness of others and/or ourselves. And because we attract people and circumstances that harmonize with our dominant thought patterns and subconscious beliefs, this anger attracts more people and circumstances to be angry about, and that leads to more feelings of being angry, misunderstood, unloved, devalued, etc. and it becomes a vicious cycle that all started with a belief that turned into your dominant thought patterns.
Also, if you were mentally, physically, emotionally, or verbally abused or neglected growing up, on some level, you were programmed to believe that you deserve to be punished. And if you've never healed your pain and your past, then you will continue to create circumstances to validate this belief. Don't believe me? There are scientific studies to prove this model.
Studies conducted by neuroscientists have shown that the conscious mind contributes to only 1 to 5% of our conscious day to day decisions, actions, emotions and behavior. It is the hidden subconscious beliefs that you hold about yourself that contribute to 95% of your decisions, actions, emotions and behavior. When you realize that 95 to 99% of your life comes from what is hidden in your subconscious mind, you begin to understand why you actually don't understand why you do what you do, or feel the way that you feel. And you won't until you begin to intentionally explore this aspect of you. Many with severe issues seek the help of various types of therapists. Others, who may not have severe mental or emotional disturbances, may hire a life coach. Then there are some who heal themselves through various tools that I'll get into below. These are all ways to help you examine those beliefs that, like an iceberg, are mostly hidden beneath the surface.
Essentially, you find out who you really are once you move past the realm of your physical mind altogether and begin seeing yourself from your higher mind. Your higher mind is that part of you that sees life through the eyes of God, so to speak. This is the realm where you no longer look at yourself from a limited egoic perspective, rather from the perspective of Spirit/God. When you access the higher mind, you access divine vision, wisdom, inspiration, genius and creativity. Then once you realize who you are from the perspective of Spirit, you begin to realize that you are actually priceless, worth more than you ever could imagine. You realize that your possibilities are infinite and that you are capable of doing what you never thought possible. So how do you access this state of mind and being?
Useful Tools
This is why tools such as meditation are so useful because they allow you to go deeper within yourself than you typically go on a day to day basis. And once you explore the hidden layers of your mind and see the lies that are in there, then you can begin to correct the unconscious beliefs that are inconsistent with who you really want to be and the life that you really want to have.
Meditation also allows you to move beyond the realm of thought and enter into the higher mind, where your true self is revealed. And yes, there are many other tools like prayer, affirmations, yoga and visualization that you can use to reprogram your lower mind and enter into the realm of your higher, spiritual mind as well, but none get you there faster than meditation.
Don't just read about how to change your life and mind, take action!
The next Intro to Meditation Class is Monday March 3rd (TONIGHT) where you will not only learn how to meditate, but you will also receive other practical tools that you can use to begin reprogramming your subconscious and unconscious mind so that you can stop settling for less than what you truly want in life.

So Belgium will soon no longer have real battle tanks?
There are still 20 Leo's MBT Ops and they will be replaced by AIV 90mm, which is hilarious !
dumbest idea ever! I always wanted to drive one of those beasts! Leopard I are still great tanks in my eyes!
Mind if I can ask anything about the "Groupe Delta de la Police Boraine?"
They seem like a SWAT team for Saint-Ghislain, Boussu, Quaregnon, Colfontaine & Frameries) with the Steyr AUG in a carbine-type barrel and a Glock 17 (Can't tell which model).
Unless if I'm wrong.
I know this is an exersice in the netherlands but why is the guy in the left carying a C7A1 and all the others there own bels issued weapon?
Edit, afther taking a second look it seems he is wearing all dutch gear. But then why he is wearing a belgium red beret.
Or is it an Airmobile red beret?
Does someone have a great site full of pictures of the Para's or SFG. I'd also like to see some Belgian Frogmen in action. Thx

Mo Williams has agreed to a two-year, $5.6 million with the Portland Trail Blazers, according to RealGM. The contract comes with a player option for the second season.
Williams chose the Blazers due to the playing time he has been promised. He originally left the Utah Jazz and declined contract offers from contending teams due to the limited role he would be set to. With the Portland Trail Blazers, Williams will see a ton of action on the court and will have a chance to improve his value for the upcoming off-season.
The former NBA All-Star averaged 12.9 points and 6.2 assists per game last season for the Utah Jazz. He is known to shoot the lights out. Alongside Damian Lillard, Williams will help spread the floor for the Portland Trail Blazers. His experience can help him serve as a teacher for Portland's young franchise player, Damian Lillard.

Thought Coalition at TATE'S Comics
By Michele Eve Sandberg
Mad Cat scripts are highly dialogue-driven. What you hear is what you get, and what you hear is almost always fast-paced, agile, witty, 20- to 30-something speak. While the first and last scenes are largely silent and much more surreal and symbolic (the final scene has a crucial development that is subtly played out), the rest of the play is full-throttle debate, dialogue, discussion, and diatribe. This is a demanding script with numerous quick scene changes. Because the Mad Cat cast is so nimble and cohesive, the effect is riveting. They are a dynamic troupe -- each character is consistently on point, dynamic, and compelling.
Throughout the play, Azurdia appears as Monty's shadow. She is at times an alter ego, and in the program notes, she is aptly entitled "Muse." As she has cowritten three works for Mad Cat with Tei, this is a role that pushes their ongoing collaboration to new heights. Azurdia skillfully plays with and against Monty's whims, moods, fears, anxieties, and tantrums. Although always on his side, the Muse often appears wiser and stronger. Azurdia's work on-stage is consistently genuine and often very comical, and in Cope, she reveals an impressive capacity for human expression through her face, hands, and movement. This role never feels too mimelike, clever, or gratuitous. Without saying a word (save a small speaking bit at the end), Azurdia's stage presence is fluid, vibrant, and revelatory. There's something rightfully poetic and surreal about her presence (a little of Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire without appearing to be a knockoff), and dramaturgically speaking, this role also adds a considerable amount of depth to Monty's character.
By now, Travis Neff's lighting and set design and Nathan Rausch's sound design are trademarks of any Mad Cat production, and Cope is no exception. The rapid-fire scene and set changes are coherent and cohesive. Karelle Levy's costume design accentuates the trendy jet-set style of the characters. The use of video is the only element of the production that doesn't work 100 percent. Like the music, the video often plays an important role in the dramatic development of the play, especially at the beginning and end, but at times (i.e., the hotel and runway scenes), it resorts to being a mere backdrop, coming off as unnecessary and contrived.
It's hard to ignore that Cope is written and directed by and stars Paul Tei. Add to this the play's dramatic premise and the fact that Tei himself is quite the hip charismatic theater guy about town and you could have a recipe for failure. What makes Cope a success is that it hides none of these facts. It actually plunges headlong into such ironies. Cope manages to transcend the unholy trinity of director, actor, and writer and takes audiences on a worthwhile and often riotous journey through the world of theater.

TIGI Bed Head Headrush Reviews
Wonderful Product!I bought this in the clearance section of Ulta and I've fallen IN LOVE! My hair is frizzy and dry and sometimes looks dull. But, once I spray this in my hair it comes to life! Headrush adds shine and makes my hair feel soft without making it greasy or slimy. It coats hair evenly with this wonderful mist-like spray and it smells great too! Must have! — 4 years, 8 months agoJedi_Princess | 13 reviews

Love itThis product is cheap (can be found for ten dollars or less) and I think it works great. Leaves a non greasy sheen on your hair that lasts for a little while. And it smells fantastic. One of the better values I've found in a shine spray. — 4 years, 11 months agomariss00 | 15 reviews
Ehhhi just bought this stuff today, i have REALLY curly hair, i do a pretty good job with it, after 20 years you kind of learn the secrets, but i'm always looking for products to boost my shine. anyone with curly hair knows that your hair is NEVER as curly as the straight haired girls hair is. i don't think it made my hair shine all that much... i will try it later today and see again, but it didn't r...read moreeally live up to what it said it would do. IT SMELLS FANTASTIC, but there's not way i'm payin $14 for a bottle of stuff that doesn't deliver, and only smells good. — 5 years, 5 months agoCurlyBecky | 2 reviews

I go to the toni and guy salon to get my hair styled so my hairs always textured out and it works wonders on keeping it seperate and shiney without the grease!

Like it, Love it, Want more or itI love this shine serum. I find that sometimes the spray on shine serums are easier to use than the liquid kind. It's easier to control the amount you get the liquid shine serums. It doesn't weigh your hair down at all and it has a nice smell. — 6 years, 6 months agoShelleybean | 144 reviews
Shine on!I work in a newsroom and everytime I wear this product I get compliments and then get taken aside and asked "what your secret is?"

Menu New Norm 11.22" Dinner Plate
In 2010 Menu and Norm Architects joined forces with Copenhagen restaurateurs Cofoco, to create something magical. A restaurant expressing everything we categorize as "Nordic". Materials, dishes, glasses, chairs, lamps, windows, moods and colors. Today, restaurant Host is the elegant result of clashing romanticism with modernity and it holds a very special place in their hearts because of its many stories, mixed inspirations and the fact that it's pleasing for all senses. Everything just fits into place to create a complex and inspiring feeling of something urban, yet rough and rural. Something rustic, yet simplistic. To create the perfect base for this urban romance, Norm Architects designed a special series of dinnerware. It was a profound admiration of one of Denmark's most prominent painters, Vilhelm Hammershoi and the unique feel of the crisp and pristine Nordic winds, which served as the main inspiration into the color scheme. And you will find that all colors in New Norm dinnerware are carefully hand-picked to match and emphasize the Nordic dishes served at Host.
About the Designer

Class: CompactClassificationTree
Classification margins
m = margin(tree,X,Y)
m = margin(tree,X,Y) returns the classification margins for the matrix of predictors X and class labels Y. For the definition, see Margin.
A classification tree created by fitctree, or a compact classification tree created by compact.
A matrix where each row represents an observation, and each column represents a predictor. The number of columns in X must equal the number of predictors in tree.
Class labels, with the same data type as exists in tree.
A numeric column vector of length size(X,1). Each entry in m represents the margin for the corresponding rows of X and (true class) Y, computed using tree.
The classification margin is the difference between the classification score for the true class and maximal classification score for the false classes. Margin is a column vector with the same number of rows as in the matrix X.
For trees, the score of a classification of a leaf node is the posterior probability of the classification at that node. The posterior probability of the classification at a node is the number of training sequences that lead to that node with the classification, divided by the number of training sequences that lead to that node.
For example, consider classifying a predictor X as true when X < 0.15 or X > 0.95, and X is false otherwise.
Generate 100 random points and classify them:
rng(0,'twister') % for reproducibility X = rand(100,1); Y = (abs(X - .55) > .4); tree = fitctree(X,Y); view(tree,'Mode','Graph')
Prune the tree:
tree1 = prune(tree,'Level',1); view(tree1,'Mode','Graph')
The pruned tree correctly classifies observations that are less than 0.15 as true. It also correctly classifies observations from .15 to .94 as false. However, it incorrectly classifies observations that are greater than .94 as false. Therefore, the score for observations that are greater than .15 should be about .05/.85=.06 for true, and about .8/.85=.94 for false.
Compute the prediction scores for the first 10 rows of X:
[~,score] = predict(tree1,X(1:10)); [score X(1:10,:)]
ans = 0.9059 0.0941 0.8147 0.9059 0.0941 0.9058 0 1.0000 0.1270 0.9059 0.0941 0.9134 0.9059 0.0941 0.6324 0 1.0000 0.0975 0.9059 0.0941 0.2785 0.9059 0.0941 0.5469 0.9059 0.0941 0.9575 0.9059 0.0941 0.9649
Indeed, every value of X (the right-most column) that is less than 0.15 has associated scores (the left and center columns) of 0 and 1, while the other values of X have associated scores of 0.91 and 0.09. The difference (score 0.09 instead of the expected .06) is due to a statistical fluctuation: there are 8 observations in X in the range (.95,1) instead of the expected 5 observations.
Compute the classification margin for the Fisher iris data, trained on its first two columns of data, and view the last 10 entries.

The Wild will be looking to even up this best-of-7 series tonight with the Colorado Avalanche.
"There's a big difference between 1-1 and 2-0," Avs captain Gabriel Landeskog said astutely this morning. "And our road play has been good all year," so … the Wild better do its darnedest to try to even this thing up tonight.
Said Bloomington native Erik Johnson, "We know how tough that building is to play in (the X), so we want to wrap up home-ice [advantage] tonight."
Avalanche coach Patrick Roy expects the Wild to play well and hard.
"It's only a game. That's all we have earned so far," Roy said. "I expect Minny to be ready for us and give a good push, especially the start of the game. I think the start of the game will be very important for us. We're going to have to play our best hockey in order to beat these guys."
No lineup changes for Colorado, Roy said. He also said he expects Matt Duchene to be out for the series. The star center isn't even skating yet. Similarly, third-line center John Mitchell (concussion) isn't even riding the bike yet, Roy said.
For the Wild, Darcy Kuemper said the rust is off and he will back up Ilya Bryzgalov tonight. Bryzgalov wasn't bad the other night, but he certainly was sloppy and he has given up 13 goals in the past three games. With Kuemper back, there's suddenly some insurance if Bryzgalov falters.
Kuemper said the injury he had occurred a few days before the March 31 morning skate in L.A. and it just progressively worse. That's why he had to leave the skate early. He joked that it was a "body" injury when I asked if it was upper, mid or lower.
As of now, looks like the same Wild lineup because Dany Heatley, Justin Fontaine, suspended Mike Rupp and Keith Ballard got bagged after the optional pregame skate with John Curry.
Couple storylines tonight:
-- There were two 4-on-4's in Game 1. Colorado benefited from one with a goal and does benefit by them because it's faster and more skilled than the Wild.
The Wild also believes it got the short end of both of them.
"We don't want to get in there. But you take enough cross-checks in the back, and it is tough. I think it's a tactic that they're trying to deploy. No question, when they're down, of course they want to play 4-on-4 and open up a little bit more ice. We want to play hard between the whistles. Hopefully the people that are calling the game are aware of that and judging it the right way."
In other words, Yeo hopes the new set of refs tonight is aware of what the Avs are trying to do. If this is a tactic by Colorado, it's a smart one because the Avs know it's natural that officials don't want to put one team down a man after a scrum, so they often take two.
"We're going to keep playing in your face hockey and as this goes on, we have to make sure we keep getting harder," Yeo said. "We want to do it between the whistles. If they cross-check us, we don't have to do anything back. We can look them in the eye and hopefully there comes a point where we can start getting on the power play."
Roy said, "We certainly don't mind the 4-on-4, that's for sure. We like our speed." But he added, "We try to get away from the scrums. It's not a good thing for the game of hockey. I know it's a good for players to show that they're in the game. But we rather focus on playing a hard game."
Speaking of playing a hard game, the Avs did a great job making life difficult on Jonas Brodin and Mikael Granlund especially the other night. They're two of the Wild's more diminutive, non-physical players.
Roy brought up how Landeskog's check on Brodin led to the game's first goal in Game 1.
"We want to finish our checks. Yes, there's no doubt about it," Roy said. "We don't try to get him out of the ice (injured), but we want to finish our check. I think it's fair and I think it's the way the game should be played. And if these guys play big minutes, we want them to play big minutes. The more tired they're going to be, I think it benefits of us."
Yeo agrees.
"Physicality is a part of it. This is what makes this game great as far as I'm concerned. This time of year especially, you see guys who quite often don't play a physical game … doing it. Part of being tough and part of being a winner is being able to take a hit to make a play."
So Yeo says not only does the Wild have to do that to Colorado's top players, Brodin and Granlund must do a better job protecting themselves. For instance, how often do you ever see Ryan Suter get blown up? It doesn't happen.
On puck retrievals, Brodin must do a better job, Yeo said, "not only so you're not getting run through the boards and running the risk of getting hurt, but also because that's the right play to give you a chance to execute. If you're not protecting the puck and not protecting yourself, it's probably going to lead to a turnover."
And, that's what happened before Landeskog's goal the other night.
Brodin said, "We knew it's going to be a tough series. They come out hard. It's their home rink, too. But I think we stood up good to it. You have to see which line you're playing against. You have to read it. Sometimes you have to protect yourself, sometimes you have to take a hit to make a play."
I also talked to Granlund and you can hear from him in tomorrow's paper.
Erik Johnson said the Avs weren't targeted those two guys specifically. He said it's the playoffs and you want to set a physical tone and "in the regular season, we're not exactly known as the most physical team."
In the playoffs, you finish checks hard "because you want players on both teams to feel it the next day."
Yeo said the Wild must do a better job being engaged and stronger in battles. He noted how on three of Colorado's goals the other night, the Wild had guys on the ice.
"We have to be stronger in those situations," Yeo said (see Kyle Brodziak on the fourth and fifth goals).
The Wild's PK went 4 for 4 the other night against one of the NHL's most lethal power plays.
"I have to give them credit," Roy said. "They play well. They play a low box. We have to take more shots from up top. That's something we'll consider. They block a lot of shots, they had great stick. I mean, they're well-coached. Positioning is really good. We'll have to maybe do it a little more the hard way," as in get shots through and jump on rebounds.
Huge game tonight that can determine this series. Teams that go up 2-0 in a best-of-seven Stanley Cup Playoffs series hold an all-time series record of 287-45 (86.4%).
Talk to ya tonight. I can't even convey how hellacious my deadline is for 8:30 p.m. games, especially on a Saturday night, so don't expect a ton of tweeting in the third period.
