High Waist Ankle Skinny Jeans
great wash
I ordered these a few months ago, I would recommend ordering a size smaller because the waist does stretch out. These jeans are perfect for the office casual, with a tucked in tank and a blazer or sweater. once washed the stretch comes back and color doesn't fade.

I was not a fan of high wasted pants but thought I'd give it a shot in the store. Wow! This was very flattering! Accentuating the curves. Hot with a cropped top. Bought my regular size 27.

From ADHD to Heart Transplants, families are welcome to explore the Experience Journals.
"If we have done our job well...it should be a very difficult decision for parents." -Dawn Freiberger, RN, MSN, Lung Transplant Program
Real kids share their real experiences with self-cathing, no holds barred.

The Experience Journals are collections of stories, pictures, and personal experiences from families about what it has been like to live with their children's illnesses. They represent the "collective wisdom" of these children and their parents as well as their health care providers. We welcome family members to enter and explore any or all of the Experience Journals.
See what kids have to say about their own experience.

Tayvon Stripe Maxi Dress
Let this dress adorn you!
"In his song "Adorn," Miguel says, "L-l-l-let my love adorn you." This is precisely what this dress does; it adorns your body and loves it to pieces. If love could be a dress, it'd be this one. It accentuates the right curves in the right places. I'm 5'8" with a curvy figure (size S or M in Bebe.) It's comfortable enough to wear to a picnic or family reunion and has just enough sex appeal to wear on a casual date with some cool earrings. I purchased the black and white in a M and couldn't be happier."
August 25, 2012
"If you have curves, you NEED this dress. I'm 5'8 and 135 lbs, and I got the small. The length is perfect - it hits right at the ankle so it doesn't drag the ground. It hugs every curve, but not uncomfortably. I wore it all day for the 4th of July yesterday outdoors, and I got so many compliments. Just overall beautiful and one of my favorite pieces this summer."
July 5, 2012
A Must Have!!
I bought this dress in the molten lava and loved it so much I am also getting it in the black. Talk about being super comfortable with a great feel and fit. I love it!!! Fits true to size.
July 2, 2012
Perfect for summer!
"Love this maxi dress! It's perfect to wear on a nice spring/summer day. Fits true to size im 5'2 and 120lbs the small fit fine but because im short it was a little too long for me, but the xs fit perfect! I also like that is so comfortable it feels as if I weren't wearing anything! I totally recommend this dress!"

Learning a foreign language challenges the intellect, enriches the spirit, and allows you to call the Norwegian royal family to tell them they are a ridiculous concept. Help others dial into dialects with this Groupon.
$69 for a 160-Hour Online TESOL-Certification Course ($944 Value, Including Tax)
The Tesols.com Complete TESOL Package is broken down into six modules that overview the characteristics, usage, and development of the English language, classroom dynamics, and the teacher-student relationship. Upon course completion, students receive internationally recognized TESOL, TEFL, and TESL certification, allowing them to teach English as a secondary language in public or private schools, along with e-Library and exclusive job bank access.
Students of the English language have a lot to contend with. Not only must they learn a grammar system with influences from Latin to Old Norse, but also an ever-expanding vocabulary that includes, according to the second edition of The Oxford English Dictionary, more than 600,000 words. To help students navigate this endless tide of language, TESOLS.com has constructed a standardized online course for those seeking TESOL certification, giving students around the world increased access to the learning tool they need most: well-trained English teachers.
TESOLS.com's courses are divided into six modules, which teach aspiring educators effective ways of presenting the English language's lexicon, grammatical nuances, and 13 different words for pizza. They also give future teachers an understanding of classroom dynamics and student interaction.

"Although my experience wasn't great, I would still recommend this program. It is a highly rated program. I would just hope that in the future the instructor is on the same page. For me, it is not enough just to know my grade. For others, it may be so.If I get a question wrong, I'd like to know what I did wrong to avoid the problem in the future. Also, I don't need a lecture that this is not English Compositon or a college course. What does that matter? Should I expect any less feedback?. I would suggest to Tesols to advise their teachers to to be more forthright in providing feedback and also to grade assessment based on actual assessment question, not on his/her interpretation of the question . If the questiion states to "list" the verbal strategies that would be used based on provided scenario(s),do not mark a student incorrectly if they list the strategies instead of going into detail about the strategies. The question said "list", not "explain". In a nutshell, I would not recommend this program to others that desire the same learning experience. For those that don't, this program would be acceptable. "
"The teacher and admin staff at the Leadership College was great. But unfortunately the course is not accredited."

Moment by Moment - a course in 11 sessions 2011-2012
A 90 day journey in the landscape of Buddhist Teachings & Practices
This winter's course - Moment by Moment: will be an opportunity to enjoy walking meditation through some of the vistas of central Buddhist teachings and practices.
You can listen to the talks online on Deer Park Dharma Cast
and download the course material from the bar to the left.
If we look deeply at the Buddhist Dharma, we see concentric circles- at the very heart of the circles lies the Four Noble Truths. All of the foundational teachings and practices spring from this source. Out of the Four Noble Truths emerge the Noble Eightfold Path, the Buddha's guidance for realizing transformation in body, speech and mind at a fundamental level. From the various steps of the Noble Eightfold Path spring a multitude of sutras, practices and commentaries.
During this course, we will enjoy sharings on each of the Truths and the steps of the path; we will be offered concrete practices to apply at home and we will have suggested readings and reflections, as appropriate. These will be available on the Deer Park Monastery website. The recorded sharings
The three month winter retreat is a time of focused attention and deep looking. It is also a time of simplifying, of settling... a time of recognizing how we use our energy in our daily life. Most of all it is a time of allowing ourselves to settle- to settle into our experience of the moment.
Making the commitment to attend this class- even knowing all of the challenges- is one way to bring that element of focused intention into our lives- even if we cannot spend ninety days in a practice center.
Sunday afternoon at 3 pm, weekly
first session: November 27, last session: February 19
in the Ocean of Peace Meditation Hall, Deer Park Monastery
or online Deer Park Dharma Cast.
How long:
each session will be one hour
because we like to

Welcome to Ask an Astronomer at Cornell University
Since they first stepped out of the proverbial cave, humans have always been intrigued by the beauty and wonder of the night sky and the almost infinite possibilities of space.
Indeed, astronomy is both the closest and the most distant science from common experience. Every curious person who gazes at the night sky becomes an astronomer, and yet the things we see in outer space are wholly outside our earthbound experience.
That is why astronomy is both the oldest and the youngest science of them all.
Oldest because almost every ancient culture, understanding the need to predict the coming of the seasons, became expert at tracking and predicting the motions of the sun, moon and planets. Many of the prehistoric monuments that still exist today are aligned in some astronomical direction or another. The Egyptian Pyramids, Stonehenge, and a panoply of Native American, Mayan and Aztec temples all are complex astronomical observatories designed for direction-finding or the prediction of the planets and seasons.
And yet astronomy is a young science, too. Only in the last century or so have we truly come to understand the size and age of the universe we live in; only in the last fifty or sixty years have we truly begun to understand the physics which drives the universe and makes exotic objects like black holes, neutron stars and a menagerie of other astronomical oddities possible. And finally, only in the last few years have we been able to find planets in orbit around other stars and the real possibility of life beyond the Earth.
It's no surprise, then, that students, writers of fiction and nonscientists in general are so interested in this particular scientific endeavor. That's why we, as astronomers, are so anxious to "get the word out," as they say.
And that's the purpose of this site. When you send an astronomy question to us, it will be forwarded to one of the participating scientists here at Cornell. Most of us are graduate students studying for PhDs in astronomy, and all of us are actively involved in astronomy research, but we love to take time out from our work to share our knowledge with those who are curious.
We hope you enjoy browsing our site!

Does anybody mind if I just go slightly off-topic here? No? Okay, good.
Because I happened across a thing about the Circus Maximus in Ancient Rome – bear with me, there's a point – and it said that in between the action, slaves would walk around and spray the spectators with perfume to ward off bad scents that are often present with large crowds. Now aside from the fact that they were slaves and the Circus Maximus was populated with a variety of barbaric sports that tended to end in death, I was all, That is brilliant.
I think the Giants should do it. They could have a poll on their website, "Which perfume do you want?" and then the winner would be sprayed between innings. Some people are sensitive to perfumes, I know, so there could be a few sections where they don't do it, just like there are peanut-free sections.
To, er, return to topic, Barry Zito, guys. Seven hits and two runs over nearly eight innings. I don't even know what to say, except that I am genuinely amazed. I also think it's something of a testament to how he's behaved for the duration of his contract with the Giants, up to this point, that the vast majority of people seem really happy for him. He has conducted himself with grace and humility pretty much all of the time, aside from the endless "need to have fun comments" which we can forgive him for, and within the organization and the fandom, happiness seems to be the overwhelming sentiment. That, in turn, makes me happy. Can we have more feel-good stories, please?
I am also finding myself increasingly partial to Gregor Blanco also because, I mean, how could I not be? He is loads of fun. So is beating AZ. Beating AZ is pretty much the best feel-good thing in the world, especially after feeling like they dominated San Francisco for a while there in everything. Don't look now, but I think the tide is turning.
Also, the word is that Barry Bonds may be coming back to the Giants at some point as a hitting instructor. I am excited about this, if only because then I can reintroduce this shirt. Oh yes.

"Want to be happy? Don't live in the UK"
INTERNATIONAL PAPERS, Thursday, 23rd SEPT. 2010: This morning we look at a "quality of life" index in The Guardian which suggests Britain and Ireland have the lowest quality of life in Europe with France being ranked on top… The 16 factors taken into account included hours of sunshine and holiday entitlements. Other stories: General David Petraeus says he won't be rushed out of Afghanistan, coverage of the Commonwealth Games fiasco and flies that can detect death from ten miles away.

Personally, I would have moved the Fox College Sports Alternate channel on 623 and moved it there.
There is some shuffling in the lower 600s that should be done including better grouping of BTN alternate channels. But I posted it to show things are happening. If you use favorites like I do, it may not get noticed.

Ionawr 2014
Blagur Bach
Helo gyfeillion y gwanwyn.
Yw eich bylbiau chi'n tyfu? Cofiwch eu gwylio nhw'n ofalus o ddiwedd Ionawr oherwydd efallai y bydd egin bach gwyrdd yn dechrau gwthio drwy'r pridd – mae'n gyffrous iawn pan fydd y cyntaf yn ymddangos! Roeddwn i mor hapus pan edrychais i yn yr ardd yr wythnos hon a gweld bod egin bach yn fy mhotiau planhigion – mae nhw'n hyfryd!
Anfonodd Ysgol Gynradd Archbishop Hutton neges ata i: Rhuthrodd A. a J. draw yn dweud bod ein crocysau cyntaf wedi ymddangos dros y penwythnos ac rydyn ni wedi tynnu ffotograffau ohonyn nhw.
Newyddion gwych! Da iawn A. a J.! Rwy'n falch iawn bod y planhigion yn eich cyffroi chi. Byddwn i wrth fy modd yn gweld y ffotograffau, allwch chi eu e-bostio nhw ata i?
Rwy'n gobeithio eich bod chi i gyd yn mwynhau'r ymchwiliad, ffrindiau. Pan fydd eich planhigion yn dechrau gwthio drwy'r pridd, beth am i chi dynnu lluniau hefyd? Os e-bostiwch chi'r lluniau ata i galla i eu dangos nhw ar y blog.
- Daliwch ati gyda'r gwaith da o anfon eich cofnodion tywydd ata i.
- Gwyliwch am yr egin cyntaf.
- Gwyliwch bob dydd wrth iddyn nhw dyfu'n fwy.
- Pan fydd eich blodau'n agor - dathlwch!! Yna cofnodwch y dyddiad a thaldra'r planhigyn.
- Anfonwch eich Adroddiad Blodau ata i drwy'r wefan.
Defnyddiwch fy nghyflwyniad Power Point i ddysgu sut i gadw cofnodion blodau.
Eich cwestiynau, fy atebion:
Ysgol Bro Eirwg: Blwyddyn Newydd Dda Athro'r Ardd! Ar ôl y gwyliau roedd y casglydd glaw yn llawn, felly methu cymryd darlleniad cywir. Arthro'r Ardd: Blwyddyn Newydd Dda Ysgol Bro Eirwg! Diolch am roi gwybod i fi am eich problemau mesur glaw, bydda i'n nodi hyn. Peidiwch â phoeni, digwyddodd hyn i lawer o ysgolion oherwydd iddi fwrw cymaint o law dros y gwyliau.
Cawthorne's Endowed Primary School: Im sorry we missed Friday we still want to go to Wales!!! Please wish us luck in Manchester. Prof P: Wishing you lots and lots of luck with your Spring bulbs Cawthorne School! Just wanted to let you know that if you are an English School and you win the Super Scientist Prize, we will arrange a day out for you in England instead of you travelling to Wales. It will still be a Super fun day, I promise.
Woodplumpton St. Anne's Primary School: sorry we forgot to take readings on two days - our teacher was not in school to remind us. There was a lot of rain over the holidays! We were surprised the temperatures were as high as they were. It felt colder. We talked about wind chill. Prof P: You are doing a great job and I am very pleased to hear you have talked about wind chill, it can make us feel VERY cold, can't it? Brrrrr.
The Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School: When we came back from our Christmas break the rainfall gauge was overflowing as nobody had been able to empty it over the holidays. The ground is getting very wet and muddy and we have to be careful collecting the information. Prof P: Be careful in the mud! We don't want any accidents, were you wearing your school shoes or your wellies?
Raglan VC Primary: Extreme rainfall on Wednesday evening. Prof P: There has been some very extreme weather recently Raglan, you are right!
Llanishen Fach C.P School: No rainfall measurement for Monday as rain gauge was full from holiday. Very high measurement for Friday rainfall - gauge was emptied on Weds and no rainfall Thursday during day. Prof P: Excellent weather reporting Llanishen Fach.
Stanford in the Vale Primary School: Monday we were off. We have noticed that the bulbs have started to sprout and are growing nicely. Prof P: Fantastic news!! Thanks for letting me know I hope you enjoy watching them grow!
Greyfriars RC Primary School: it was 50mm because that was all over the holidays. C: this is exciting and i dont know whats gonna happen. R: it was fun watering the plants with C. Prof P: Well done C and R, its great to hear you are working together and having fun.
Ysgol Nant Y Coed: School was closed on Monday sorry professor plant. Prof P: That's okay Ysgol Nant Y Coed, keep up the good work!
John Cross CE Primary School: we had some problems because sheep got on to our field and knocked over the rain collector. Prof P: What cheeky sheep! Maybe they were interested in your investigation and came over to have a closer look.
At the beginning of January we had a crochet session where myself and Anna Phillips attempted to turn everyone into crochet queens. Anna made up a great little easy pattern to crochet circles which could then be turned into a garland, or maybe a coaster if you stopped at just making one. We will be having another crochet meet up on March 15 so come along to that one, and because everyone seems keen I'll try and add more dates to the rest of the year.
St Dwynwen's Day Cards and a Mocktail
Last saturday (25th) was St Dwynwen's Day! I hope you all had cards and treats... we had a family drop-in card making session here in St Fagans National History Museum and we also did a bit of sewing too.
We will be doing something pretty similar for Valentine's Day on 8th and 9th of February.
And the mocktail?
That was for reading group! We were discussing 'Rules of Civility' by Amor Towles which is set in 1930s New York and therefore we had suitably 30s type refreshments - Shirley Temples and kit kats all round! (the kit-kat was introduced in 1937). Our next reading group meet up will be on 22 February where we'll be discussing Alan Hollinghurst's 'The Stranger's Child'.

Show Stopper
As driven in her career as she is in her pursuit of style, Katharine McPhee, the dazzling star of Smash, doesn't rest. And she won't—not until we've all caught McPheever.
The tall, sultry brunette standing at the check-in at Fred's restaurant on the ninth floor of Barneys in New York seems perplexed. Lean, all in black, she scans the midafternoon crowd: dedicated luxury shoppers with big diamonds on their fingers, thick furs on their backs, blonde streaks in their hair. When I wave her over, she waves back, smiles and walks briskly to meet me at a table by the window. Katharine McPhee slips gracefully into her chair and takes a sip of the glass of pinot noir waiting for her. "You look so familiar," she says. "Have we met before?"
Almost immediately, we start to talk fashion. "This is Jeremy Laing," she says, plucking at her sheer black high-neck long-sleeved shirt. Her wrists sparkle with a mishmash of colorful bangles, and a raw-cut amethyst dangles from a silver chain around her neck—something she found at an art show downtown. She lifts a leg to show me her dark Rag & Bone ripped jeans and black high-heeled Gucci booties. She loves heels, she says, even though she's six feet tall when she wears them, the same height as her music producer/husband Nick Cokas—who doesn't mind either. And it's a good thing, too, because after spending most of her life in L.A., she's now living in a city where heels rule. "In L.A. no one wears heels because they drive, but here in New York I get to wear heels. It's great!" She proudly holds up her black gold-plated Sophie Hulme bag. "This is not a briefcase," she says emphatically. "The men at work say, 'Oh, is that a briefcase?' I'm like, No, you stupid," she says, laughing. "It's like a beautiful fashion statement that you can fit your laptop in." Work for McPhee at the moment is season two of the NBC series Smash, in which she plays the lead, Karen Cartwright, an ingenue who unexpectedly lands the lead in a Broadway musical about Marilyn Monroe. This is McPhee's first scripted TV series, and she is truly mesmerizing as the inexperienced, slightly stiff beginner who slowly transforms herself—offstage and on—into the ne plus ultra of sexual sophisticates. Her success in this role is maybe not so surprising; she is in some regard playing a version of her own story: the ingenue who rose to fame—as runner-up on American Idol in 2006—seemingly out of nowhere and swept viewers up in what the press quickly termed "McPheever."
But, I say, despite her sizable fame, it seems that fashion-wise, she's still the down-to-earth, jeans-wearing girl I saw on Idol who puts music first and style second. Correct? "Not always," she says, spooning up some lentil soup.
"Oh," I say. Hmmm. "I never got the sense from anything I saw or read that you spend much time worrying about fashion."
"Actually, I've always loved fashion; I salivated over fashion magazines. Growing up, I learned from my best friend, who really knew clothes, that to look really great with no money took time, and I didn't have time. I was singing." The singing started early, unsurprisingly: McPhee was raised—in Sherman Oaks, California—by a voice coach mother and a television producer father.
"Music was pretty much all I did growing up," she says. "But I loved clothes. On Idol, I was very strategic with my look. I specifically wore very little makeup, did very little with my hair. I wore beat-up jeans and a simple jacket and I covered my body up because I knew that viewers like seeing transformation. As a viewer myself, it was one of those things I looked forward to. It's like when people watch Dancing With the Stars: They love to see the stars lose weight and start to feel confident. So I wanted to create that story—actually to push the story that I had no idea about fashion—which was not actually true."
Post-Idol, she became the face of the Sexy Hair product line (deservedly so—her hair is amazingly thick and lustrous in person, with a waviness that hasn't been sacrificed to the blow dryer), released several successful albums (Katharine McPhee debuted at number two, Unbroken at number 27) and appeared on dozens of magazine covers.
It was on these cover shoots that her latent fashion cravings came alive and were shaped—by experts. "I learned from stylists the crucial lesson that what looks good on camera doesn't always look so good off." It changed her outlook and her wardrobe. "Now I look back [at paparazzi photos] and I will be like, Where did I get those pants that I was wearing? Oh, right, they were sent to me by some PR company, and you think because they're free, they're awesome, but then you look back at the photos and you look horrible in them. I'm like, God, what was I thinking?"
Out of the limelight, most of her time was spent auditioning, auditioning, auditioning, because although she knew she could sing, she also wanted to act. She had small roles in two forgettable movies (The House Bunny and Shark Night 3D), but she hungered for the breakthrough lead role. When she learned about Smash, co-executive-produced by Steven Spielberg, co-starring Debra Messing and Anjelica Huston, and the role of Karen, it seemed like the opportunity she'd been waiting for. She auditioned on video, flew to New York and waited two nail-biting days for Spielberg to watch the tape and deliver his verdict. Yes, was the answer. She got the part, and it fit her like a glove.
Of course, for anyone who'd seen her on Idol, heard the powerful, soulful voice (which seemed almost too big for the then 22-year-old) and taken in her gorgeous looks, the casting was natural. There was only one snag: Her dream job was in New York; she loved L.A. "I don't want to sound ungrateful, but I hated living in New York for the first six months," she says. She was used to a city full of people in the same business, all struggling (albeit, for most of them, on a lesser scale than her). "You would walk into Starbucks and three people are reading scripts and you realize, Oh I'm not alone, and there's sunshine and you can go hike in the mountains if you need to work out."
New York obviously was different. It was cold half the year, it was expensive ("$2.25 for a subway ride!") and she had a schedule that left her no time to see anyone except Cokas, on whom she routinely fell asleep at night, exhausted by work and her 5 am wake-up time.
But there was the show, which was everything. And slowly, things began to shift. She found a friend in co-star Megan Hilty, a veteran Broadway actress who plays McPhee's on-screen nemesis (also a veteran Broadway actress) and rival for the role of Marilyn; the city began to grow on her. She started shopping at downtown boutiques like Curve and spending the odd Sunday in wine bars, and to her surprise, she fell in love with the place. "I couldn't really put my finger on it. There's so much diversity on the streets here. You get to leave work behind when you leave; not everyone is an actor."
She loves New York street style, the girls she sees downtown "who look like they haven't brushed their hair, and they've thrown on ripped-up shorts with a pair of tights and ankle boots and a jacket—it has this effortlessness." They remind her, she says, of her two celebrity style icons, Kate Bosworth and Kate Moss. She's never met either, but Bosworth, McPhee says, "is feminine but has an edge—she always looks good even when caught on the street." As for Ms. Moss, "she just nails it on a daily basis."
"Plus," I say, "she does it under the intense pressure of knowing she'll be photographed pretty much every time she leaves her house."
"Now that's the kind of thing in fashion that excites me," McPhee says. This season, she has become more involved in creating her look on the show, weighing in on costume decisions. "I realized I needed to put attention and time into the clothing. It would be so easy to put together a Helmut Lang top and jeans and ankle boots—and it looks fine, but it doesn't take it to the next level, especially on television." Working with stylists, she's learned to trust her instincts and built her confidence. "I know what looks good on me," she says. These days that mostly means romantic, feminine silk or sheer pieces, mixed with something edgy, like a leather jacket, which she owns nine of. She does her best to lead as ordinary a life as possible. She's bought a bike that she rides along the West Side Highway; she spends time with her Chihuahuas Larry and Nena; she cooks.
She definitely doesn't go crazy at night. "When you're on a show like this, one that requires so much singing, you have to be really protective of your instrument. You don't get to just, like, go out and party all night." To her, this is not a sacrifice. "In five years I'd love to have done a play and a few movies, and of course I hope Smash keeps going." She's on a journey, something she easily admits, and she won't rest until she reaches her destination. "I once thought that by now I'd have lots of children, but actually I'm really enjoying being able to go from point A to point B and the only worry I have is have my dogs been walked. I'm selfish right now, but that's how and where I should be. The thing is, work is the thing I love the most."

It does run a little short on the length, but if you can wear short dresses, this is one that your husband or boyfriend will love. The padded bust, was not very padded, but there are ways to beef this area up. Very good buy for the money. I can't wait to wear mine. Fits pretty true to size.

Okay dress
This dress is just okay. I don't know what' wrong with bebe's new dresses but I have not been having luck. They are not tailored as well as before and I think the quality has gone down.I already had to return 5 within the last month or so because they do not fit well or they look cheap. The hips on this dress are too wide which makes it stick out on the sides and wrinkle in the front. Also, if you're large chested like me (32D) it shows too much cleavage. It's going back to the store.

A feature article on "Black or White," including interviews with Kevin Costner, Anthony Mackie and director Mike Binder.
With its off-the-shelf title, I had worked up less than a white-hot enthusiasm to see "Hit & Run," but it's a lot more fun than the title suggests. How many chase comedies have you seen where the hero's sexy girlfriend has a doctorate in nonviolent conflict resolution? Her counseling would have been invaluable to the U.S. marshal (Tom Arnold) in an early scene where he attempts to shoot his own SUV.
There's a lot of funny stuff, but the most unexpected comes from Arnold, who has been uneven, to say the least, in his movies. His marshal, named Randy, works with the Federal Witness Protection program and is assigned to protect a likable guy named, yes, Charlie Bronson (Dax Shepard). We meet Charlie in the arms of his sweet girlfriend, Annie (Kristen Bell); they live in a bucolic northern California town, where she teaches in a local college. She has no idea he's a witness who needs protecting.
Good news brings trouble. Annie gets an interview to start the nation's first nonviolent conflict resolution department at a prestigious Los Angeles university. L.A. is, alas, the last place Charlie wants to go, and the very place where he most needs protection. Annie's boss (Kristin Chenoweth) orders her to go for the interview, because she's too good for her current job. Charlie's love overcomes his fears, and he's determined to drive her to L.A. himself, no matter the risk.
This introduces his slab-sided 1967 Lincoln Continental with a customized 700-hp engine. This classic car is necessary for the same reason all classic cars are used in movies: Most contemporary cars look generic. I learn that Dax Shepard is a car fan and used mostly his own cars in the movie, which is a brave gesture in the name of art, because the movie's vehicles have alarming experiences.
Shepard (TV's "Parenthood") wrote the movie, co-directed it, starred, did stunt driving and in general is responsible for it. He also recruited his real-life girlfriend, Kristen Bell, to share the lead. IMDb reports the movie took only 10 weeks from plot outline to the martini shot, and most of the actors deferred their salaries. I mention that only because few action comedies are made with this much organization and precision. The plot grows complex, characters shuttle in and out, and everyone seems to be having a good time. I got the sense that it was a happy shoot, as if they knew it was going well; most action movies have characters who seem to be exhausted or victims of tunnel vision.
Among the other characters who speed things along is Gil (Michael Rosenbaum), Annie's intensely jealous former boyfriend, and Gil's brother, Terry (Jess Rowland), a gay cop who joins in a chase I'm not sure he completely understands. Terry has a cell-phone app that I suspect is now being written into a dozen other movies. It's called Pouncer, and he explains it with pride to his female partner. If you have it activated, it sends out pings to other nearby gay people, who display as little targets on a map. This app is an excellent reason not to use your iPhone while driving.
In the way Charlie gradually reveals his past to Annie, he's like a kid caught shoplifting. She loves him, she appreciates him for speeding her to L.A., but how many shocking revelations is he going to make? They work convincingly together, and the movie is ever so much better than a film titled "Hit & Run" has any right to be.

Wrap your baby safely and in the comfort of the HALO® SleepSack® Swaddle and SleepSack® wearable blanket included in this ideal gift set. The Halo SleepSack® Swaddle and SleepSack wearable blanket replace loose blankets in the crib that can cover your baby's face and interfere with breathing. In addition to helping your baby sleep safer, it helps him sleep better, too. The SleepSack Swaddle has an adjustable swaddle wrap to immobilizes your baby's arms to prevent the "moro" or startle reflex. And, it's the only 2-in-1 adjustable swaddle that allows for swaddling arms in or arms out for baby's comfort and to ensure an easy and gentle transition to the SleepSack wearable blanket when it's time to stop swaddling.
Material: 100% Cotton
Brand: HALO
Origin: Imported
Halo SleepSacks' wearable sleep blankets and swaddle sacks for newborn babies aren't just adorable and super-soft — they're also potentially life-saving. Designed to fit snugly and securely while your baby sleeps, Halo SleepSacks eliminate the dangers posed by loose crib blankets, which can hinder infants' breathing if pulled up over the face. They also help babies to avoid getting sick by preventing them from kicking off their blankets during cold nights. The Halo SleepSacks collection is just one of several product series developed by Halo Innovations — a Minnesota-based company whose founder, William Schmid, lost a child to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome during the 1990s. Designed to maximize babies' safety and well-being, Halo SleepSacks and swaddles come in cotton or polyester fleece and in large and XL sizes to fit little ones up to age 24 months.

Was a 40kesque split in Warhammer. Seperate games for different sections of the world.
It is obvious this one is in no way WFRP, for a start your PC starts out as a HERO (as per the blurb for the product), emphasised I think deliberately.
What I was hoping for is 'A Ratcatcher's Tale' being the low end WFRP experience the current game is and this one to be the high end of heroes. However the inference has been that a ratcatcher's tale is not a real product, leaving only a game of heroes slaughtering enemies.
I don't see how they can claim it to be true to the original game if from the very start your character is described like this: "As a hero, you will take up weapon, spell, or prayer and do your best to combat the might of enemies terrifying to behold."
Sounds like D&D, not Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.
Obviously they think that normal people fighting the good fight in a world gone mad doesn't sell to the ADD kiddies of today. you need to pwnzor everyone or you aren't cool.
I find it very sad.

Berea Animal Rescue Friends (ARF) started in a family garage outside of Cleveland after a small group of animal lovers recognized the desperate housing and healthcare needs of homeless animals in the area. Now, 20 years later, ARF continues to help stray and abandoned animals by providing shelter, food, and medical necessities—as well as loving care and companionship—in a more formal facility for as long as needed. In addition to traditional adoption services for cats and dogs, ARF also runs temporary foster-care programs and partners with a correctional facility to operate a prison foster program in which dogs receive basic obedience training.

Wide aisles give leashed pups enough room to roam, colorful signage keeps shoppers moving in the right direction, and low shelves allow dogs to sniff out their preferred brand of rawhide chew. A self-serve dog wash enables guests to scrub their canine companions' coats to a youthful, puppy-like shine, whereas grooming services enlist professionals to tackle tougher jobs, such as brushing out matted fur or convincing dalmatians to stop mixing white and black after Labor Day.

2013 and Earlier - Audi Q5 Prices Paid and Buying Experience
kantuckid Posts: 4I need dealer names when you post a deal & also say if it was on lot or ordered & don't include taxes but do state dealer doc. fees. I want 2013 Q5 in Ibis White,2.0 Quattro,Chestnut lthr.,htd. frt. seats,rear bags & am in E.KY will do fly & drive within ~1,000k of me
-help on discounting dealers???
It's amazing that so many people have posted here with zero mention of a dealers name /location!!! -
ltllady Posts: 27TrueCar is not out to secure the best deal for buyers. TrueCar makes money from dealers. It does not take much analysis to realize TrueCare is mostly concerned with its relationship with dealers. Funny thing is most of the large buying services are tied to TrueCar. Dah!
The best way to price a vehicle is to start at invoice, reduce by dealer incentives (holdback, etc.), reduce by customer incentives, and add a reasonable amount for dealer cost and profit. Smart buyers start from that point.
It amazes me how many people seem to blindly accept dealer (documentation) fees of several hundres dollars as if those fees are an actual cost. Regardless of what a dealer claims, such fees are not a cost. They are simply an increase to the selling price. In reality, anything over $50 or so is outrageous.
Customers should not be concerned about any dealer cost. The only thing important is the price, which covers all dealer cost and profit. -
carquestions22 Posts: 1Which car is better? 2012--3.2L V6 versus 2013--2.0T V4
I'm interested in buying (or leasing) a Q5 but I cannot choose between a 2012 V6 3.2L engine or a 2013 2.0T engine. A nearly fully loaded 2012 Q5 is being offered to me at $45K + tax. Does that still seem too high? Why would I buy that versus a cheaper and yet with some of the same add ons 2013 2.0L Q5? (Around 43K). Any insights would be helpful. -
jay_2013 Posts: 11I know this is common with BMW dealers (ordering a car direct from the factory) and they don't make attempts to sell you something on their lot. But with Audi, I am seeing very little inventory (at least here in the SF Bay Area) and am wondering if I should try putting together a custom order instead. While admittedly I haven't talked with more than one dealer, I get a feeling that Audi dealers want to have you pick something from their lot. What downsides could I expect with this type of order?
On a related question, I see places far off from the Bay Area- such as Bakersfield Audi- have a lot of inventory. Is it reasonable to drive there to do the deal or have a local dealer get the car from them and deliver it locally? -
autofreund Posts: 2
cisco4440 Posts: 10sorry not a leasing question, but hoping someone can clarify.. AFS has a special 1.9% for 48month for it's top tier credit. 2 question?
1) what does AFS consider top tier, min FICA of 690? Anything other variables?
2) at 1.9% @ 48months, is this this real APR? The reason I ask is because I ask my personal bank and they're offering 3.99% with APR of 4.19%. Thus, the clarification needed on the AFS rate of 1.9%, and if the local Audi dealer will mark up from there?
TIA.. cautious buyer -
buzzy8 Posts: 31This is a second 3rd vehicle (2nd SUV) so I didn't want to spend the big bucks but LOVE this Audi...we have 3 kids so was looking for something they could sit in the back which is what made us look at the Q5 instead of the A4. Looking at the Q5 Hybrid Prestige with pricing of $54,000. I am getting the sense that Audi does not deal much. I got a Sequoia $14,000 off of invoice but wishful thinking on the Audi. My question is, should I wait for a non Hybrid to save money and what can I expect to see on money off of the Price? Thanks!
thom22 Posts: 5I was looking at the Q5 Premium with Convenience Pkg, Lighting Package, Heated Seats. MSRP of $40,795. I wanted to go no higher than $38,500 and by reading this forum, I thought it was possible.
Best price I was offered was $39,201. Not close enough to make a deal, so it looks like I will go with the Acura RDX. The RDX is the AWD w/ Tech package. MSRP $40,315 and final negotiated price of $37,360. Too many extra options and about $2,000 cheaper.
If anyone knows of a dealer that can come down to the $38,500 on the Audi in NJ in the next 24 hours, let me know. I want my new vehicle before the weekend. Thanks. -
skitime62 Posts: 3I live in Northern NJ and got this offer from a dealer and while it seems good I always feel I could do better. Please let me know. I might buy vs lease so interested in what current rates for financing might be too.
2013 Q5 Audi Black/Beige Premium Plus w/Nav and Xenon

cscamp20 Posts: 9Just to let u know I got my 2012 q5 for 37000. With heated seats and pano sunroof. So I don't think that's a good deal I had to wait for it for 2 and a half months. Jack Daniels in Paramus. Ask for Tal. Tell him Chris sent you :P
btw, mine is an ibis white. 2.0t, premium with heated seats. No other options installed -
theoriginalsos Posts: 1Obviously you can argue with a dealer about whether to pay the holdback, doc fees, destination fees, etc. It does come down to price. However, Audi Q5s are pretty hard to get and therefore, talking about getting a Q5 (or any other desirable Audi, for instance my A5 convertible) below, at or near invoice is a joke. That is why talking to people about what you paid to see if you are in the ballpark is valuable. Best deal I've seen is the current Audi club discount of 6% off MSRP - plus a $1k loyalty discount if you are a current Audi owner. If you can do better than that, great.

Audi Q5 3.0T

2,500$ Down 36 months 15k miles payment is 688$
Same everything but 39 month 681$
Same everything but 42 month 662$
Meeting with one more dealer tomorrow and bringing these specs to see if they will beat. Any input would be greatly appreciated. -
ydol Posts: 12I purchased 2013 Q5 2.0T Premium at the end of Feb and was able to negotiate below invoice. Audi currently offers 1.9% up to 66 mo to finance. I do not find the leasing option as attractive with the current MF and residual. You'll end up paying about the same compare to 60 mo finance without paying acquisition fees, etc. in leasing.
P.S. I opt out purchasing extended warranty but would suggest buying Audi Care. I also test drove BMW X3 for comparison and decided that Q5 is a better option, LED light pkg must have. -
ydol Posts: 12Model Year: 2013 Q5 2.0T QUATTRO TIPTRONIC
Exterior Color: P5P5 ICE SILVER METALLIC

- Browse the car online from dealer inventory
- Start negotiating with internet manager and try to get as close to invoice
- Test drive the car, negotiate more, and close the deal (or always be ready to walk out...)
- Listen to finance manager sales pitch on extended warranty and..
- To decide if anything more than $3XXX (w/ $100 deductible) worth to pay for extended 2yr/100k beyond standard 4yr/50k (for me probably worth to trade in another Audi with awesome deal when basic warranty ends).
- To decide if anything more than $1XXX is worth for wheel and tire protection -
osubuck Posts: 19What do you mean by the following line:
- To decide if anything more than $3XXX (w/ $100 deductible) worth to pay for extended 2yr/100k beyond standard 4yr/50k (for me probably worth to trade in another Audi with awesome deal when basic warranty ends).
what's worth more than $3,000? can you explain more? -
osubuck Posts: 19Premium Plus Package, with the Navigation system, the Bang & Olufsen sound system, the Audi Advanced Key, the 19" Wheels, and the All-Weather Floor Mats. It has an MSRP of $47,175.
They are offering me the vehicle for $45,632...
Invoice according to edmunds is $43,937.
I want it for $43,000
Do you think it's do-able? -
ydol Posts: 12Audi offers different $$ tiers of extended warranty program (2yr/100k), anywhere from $3XXX and up depend on the coverage and deductible. Although it could be rolling into the finance, my thought process was...
- I could buy before standard warranty end (probably cost little more but I have 4 yr/50k to think about it) or
- trade-in for another car at the end of standard warranty
Hope that explains. I would prefer 1-2 yr CPO car with awesome deal rather than buying extended warranty of new car.
