breastfeeding in style–options for nursing moms from ModCloth.com
February 2, 2011
Today I have a little post for all the mamas out there who are bumming about trying to fit and flatter their post-baby bodies and keep up with the needs of a nursing baby. When I was a new mom, I expected my new routine to be very demanding, but I didn't expect to be held back by my clothes. I wish that I had been privy to a more open dialogue about the needs of breastfeeding mothers and how nursing completely changes your wardrobe!
If you are a new mom (or a seasoned vet!), you already know about the new foundation garments of a post-partum wardrobe–nursing tank tops (the ones from Target are my favorite!) and bras…maybe a little bit of shapewear or a new pair of Power Panties…but what about the rest of your clothes? Looking at a closet full of stuff that doesn't fit is hard enough without trying to scrape together outfits that allow easy access for nursing mothers. I'm still going through that myself, and so I wanted to put together a style guide as well as some of my favorite pieces that are perfect for the fashionable new mama! Obviously these pieces aren't limited to new moms–there are plenty of sweet styles for anybody to scoop!
Find jersey garments with interesting details–having some extra stretch around the waist and neckline is wonderful for a post-partum wardrobe, and having something embellished or unique about it adds more value and style than, for example, a plain t-shirt or tank. I also love wearing blouses and tops that crossover or wrap–it's always on-trend and easy to find beautiful styles.
1. The Simply Swell Tank has beautiful ruffles and I love the crossover design. 2. The Team Mod Mini Dress is the ultimate in statement style. 3. I would pair the Kite Flying Top with a sequinned skirt–the subtle difference in pattern on the cuff is cool too. 4. The way the Coin Licorice Top floats away from the body is the perfect fit for nursing moms. I'd wear this with a pencil skirt, colored tights, and flats for running errands! 5. I think layering this Maiden Lane Blouse over a nursing tank would make me feel post-baby pretty.
Cardigans and button-ups are great, but don't learn the hard way that the closures and buttons should be closer together at the bust! When Alice was born, I was happy to go back to wearing my old cardigans, but my bust was not the same size. Either buy bigger sweaters, or keep wearing fitted ones by adding additional snaps or finding pieces that close without gapping at the bust. Or you can play it safe and get zippered tops!
1. The Keeping Pom-Pom-ises cardigan is just one of the most special pieces I've ever seen. 2. The Ingocnita Hoodie with its Dolman sleeves offers my favorite–and most forgiving–silhouette. 3. Another embellished zip-up I love is the Thrills and Frills hoodie! 4. The Heart Act to Follow cardigan has buttons that are close enough together to prevent gapping. 5. The Guest House Sweater is demure and darling.
After I gave birth I loved wearing long tunics and sweaters with leggings and a belted waist–they were the easiest pieces to grow into or out of as my shape continued to change.
1. The Daydreams of Omaha top not only has an awesome name, it has length, front buttons, and a chic drawstring waist! 2. The cowl neck of the When You Met Tunic would perfectly frame a chunky necklace. 3. I love the gauzy fabric of this Papyrus Scroll tunic–it would look great with some strappy sandals and leggings. 4. The Herbal Tea tunic could be worn over leggings or tucked into a skirt. It's easy for new moms because it has plenty of stretch to pull up or down. 5. I love the zipper placement of this Ski Lift Tunic and how it creates such an interesting neckline!
I love wearing sweaters and tops with draped lapels that can be pulled over baby's face when nursing. Alice also loves snuggling, wrapped up in the extra fabric.
1. The Since the Fawn of Time jacket is so versatile–the asymmetry is perfect for nursing discreetly,and it has plenty of pockets for all of your stuff. 2. Another incredibly versatile piece is ModCloth's Reverie Cardigan. 3. The Manta Ray sweater is perfect for layering over a nursing tank and transitioning between seasons. 4. Sheer, tiered ruffles on the Fabulous Voyage cardigan are perfect for pulling over baby's face. 5. The Must Mean Business jacket has an asymmetrical zip for plenty of fabric to cover up!
One thing I have missed the most is the sleek silhouette of a boatneck dress or coziness of a turtleneck tunic, but nothing is harder for nursing a baby than trying to unzip a dress–and in public I just can't go that far (maybe you can, kudos!). When I'm with Alice though, I gotta stick with a button- or zip-up. Luckily there are tons of exciting and gorgeous dresses with this kind of construction! I've even been known to wear a beautiful, well-fitting coat as a dress, and ModCloth rates the warmth of all of their outerwear so you can choose something that isn't too bulky or hot! Nothing makes you think outside the box like pregnancy and nursing.
1. The beauty of ruffles meet the functionality of a button-up with this Angel in Blue dress. 2. A chunky signature necklace would look beautiful with this versatile No Valley Low Dress, and keep easily bored babies occupied with something to grab on to. 3. The top of this Stellar System Dress is elasticized, making it ideal for nursing moms who need a dose of something extra fabulous. You could dress it down with a simple cardigan or dress it WAY up! 4. Bows and are my favorite motif and wrap dresses are my favorite day-to-day staple, and the Wrapping and Bows dress offers both! 5. The Cocoa Cozy dress is another versatile wrap silhouette that could be easily dressed up or down.
It probably goes without saying, but your entire postpartum wardrobe should be machine washable. That's why all of the pieces in this post are ones you can wash yourself at home!
A final word about nursing tanks and underpinnings–I usually wear either a loose jersey tank top that can be stretched with a bra or a nursing tank under my clothes, but I am always disappointed at how plain they look. Arranging three or five (I'm into odd numbers) vintage brooches at the neckline or pinning a felt flower over the clasp of the tank top hides the hardware that makes the nursing tank functional and adds some style.
I didn't learn anything about what I would need for a postpartum breastfeeding wardrobe until I got there–and when I was searching for the right functional garments without losing the pretty, I wished that more people talked about what a challenge it is to dress well when you have to be able to feed an infant on demand. So I just wanted to share my advice and some of the best pieces out there for you to add to your new wardrobe. These are all great basic clothes (with a little something special) to take you from single living to married mama, and anything in between!

I admired your helpful words. Top class contribution. I really hope you'll write more. I'll continue looking for.http://instagram.com/bubblegumcasting
a big, huge, THANK YOU for this post!
Amen, mama!
This is great! I'm having my first next month and I HATE HATE HATE maternity clothes. But I also had no idea what I'd need for nursing. Thank you for the ideas!
thank you, thank you, thank you! i clicked over here from Rockstar Diaries (great post, btw!) and i am so glad i did. i'm due in about 5 weeks with our first and buying a few new pieces for postpartum will really brighten these last few (agonizing) weeks! i'm so sick of my pregnancy wardrobe that i might just go online to buy a few things now… thank you!
This is some advice I have been searching for since my daughter was born (5 months ago!) Thank you soo much for putting together some great wardrobe ideas for the nursing mom.
perfect advice!
this is what i like and appreciate, when people share and inform you of lesser known things/parts of pregnancy/birth. i don't know why it's not common place to share these things with the rest of us! i am so grateful to all you who have gone before me on this path and are sharing with me what no one told you. THANK YOU.
i'm still a bit overwhelmed by the PP wardrobe yet at least now i have some direction -
I don't intend to be a mother, but I continue to be impressed by how you address motherhood and all that it entails in your blog. Well done!
Thank you for this! I'm days away (hopefully!) from having my baby and I'm already trying to figure out the whole nursing bra/tank/shirt situation. I got a few "nursing tops" but honestly they still feel and look like maternity and while I know I may still have to wear maternity clothes for awhile, I really want to be cute! These are great suggestions!
Yeah, I would wear most of that. I'm not a mom either!
I really appreciate these kind of posts – I'll be so much more prepared now thanks to you!
Thank you for this post! I am due in July and have been worried about maternity clothes AND nursing clothes postpartum, but I hadn't gotten much advice to curb my worries about the latter. I really value your fashion and Alice-related advice and insights, and I'll definitely look through these ModCloth options (love the clothes there, but never buy because I think they're pricey). <3
Thank you for this post! I had my daughter, Vivian, 8 weeks ago and am still deep into the whole wearing my husband's T-shirts and jogging pants phase. I can't wait for the winter to be over and come out of hibernation! Looks like I have some shopping to do!
Amazing! You hit the nail on the head. I love my clothes and putting together outfits post-baby has been such a challenge – one I really wasn't expecting! For some reason I was thinking that once the pounds came off, I'd have my old wardrobe back. Of course I wasn't taking into account that certain body parts wouldn't look the same no matter how much weight I lost, and that nursing a baby makes a lot of outfits problematic. But I just couldn't bear the thought of sacrificing fashion for a year (or more) in the name of practicality. So I've been on the same mission as you – and whenever I find something cute, well-fitting, affordable, and nursing-friendly, I am over the moon!!
Thanks for the suggestions. Might need to dig out the old credit card…
I'm not a mom, but I love these. I might have to buy that heart cardigan and lace t-shirt style top.

The Peter Casey trained Flemenstar will head a field of seven runners for Easter Sundays feature the Grade 1 Powers Gold Cup over 2m4f at Fairyhouse Festival. Currently available with best price odds of 11/8 from Betfred the highly regarded 7 year old will be looking to complete a five timer from six starts this season, that includes winning the Grade 1 Arkle Novice Chase at Leopardstown by 19 lengths back in January.
Flemenstar appears to have taken to fences extremely well and his easy victory last time out in the Grade 3 Naas Directors Plate Novice Chase proved that the 2m4f trip will hold no fears for him. However the ground would appear to be a slight negative as it is expected to be good and all of his chase wins thus far have come on soft ground. That said the conditions do not appear to have had any negative effect on Casey, who believes that the ground will not necessarily ride too fast and his charge is well equipped to deal with it if it does. Casey in fact has been nothing short of bullish about his chances which should attract further market support meaning that in all probability, he will go off with much shorter odds than currently quoted.
Next best in the betting with odds of 4/1 is the Mouse Morris entry Rathlin who also comes to the race with great form after winning his last three starts. In The latest of those, the Grade 2 Woodlands Park Novice Chase, at Naas at the end of February, he had the classy Shot From The Hip over 8 lengths adrift in second place. The seven year old has also won a Beginners and a Novice Chase at Fairyhouse, over the last couple of months suggesting that the course might be ideal for him. It is worth noting too that he has been the subject of a number of racing tips this week.
Also with odds of 4/1 available from betfred is the Willie Mullins trained Call The Police last seen finishing third, 13½ lengths behind Bobs Worth in the Grade 1 RSA Chase over 3m1f at last month's Cheltenham Festival. He will relish the return to this shorter trip, the ground should not trouble him and he will have the considerable advantage Ruby Walsh in the saddle.
Having been warmed up for his tilt at this by winning a competitive 2 mile hurdle the other day at Limerick, False Economy from Michael Hourigan's stable has been tentatively backed to upset the odds in this race. Before his Limerick win he had been given a couple of spin's on the All Weather flat surface at Dundalk, which is hardly perfect preparation for a Novice Grade 1 Chase, particularly when tackling fences for only the second time. He did win his debut over fences however, taking a Beginners Chase over 2m4f at Limerick back in October where he had the useful staying chaser Four Commanders, 3 lengths behind. It is difficult to know which way to turn with this type of entry but Hourigan's booking of Barry Geraghty for the ride could be significant. He can backed with odds of 9/1 from Betfred.
With odds of 10/1 is White Star Line, trained by Dessie Hughes who is a very interesting entry, particularly as it was he that finished in second place 8 lengths behind Hunt Ball in the Pulteney Land Investments Handicap Chase over 2m5f at the Cheltenham Festival. We all know the significance of that Hunt Ball win as it was one of the biggest talking points of the Festival, and that horse will now be aimed at taking on the 'cream of National Hunt Chasers' in the 2013 Cheltenham Gold Cup. White Star Line meanwhile ran with great credit that day and should come on for the run. Certainly the stable are keen on his chances and are expecting a big run.
The field is made up by a second Willie Mullins entry Bishopfurze, who has odds of 14/1 and Gift Of Dgab a 16/1 shot, trained by Tony Martin who will have jockey Paul Carberry on board. Carberry it should be noted has been on the winner of this race three times in the last four years.
11/8 Flemenstar
4/1 Rathlin
4/1 Call The Police
9/1 False Economy
10/1 White Star Line
14/1 Bishopfurze
16/1 Gift Of Dgab
The odds for this race have been provided by Betfred.com who will be operating a comprehensive online service throughout the Fairyhouse Festival.

John Rivera Sedlar, the chef who brought us Saint Estephe, Bikini and Abiquiu (may they all rest in peace) is back and back in a big way. At the new Rivera within shouting distance of L.A. Live, the 54-year-old chef is firing on all cylinders. Rivera is terrific, one of the most exciting restaurants to debut in L.A. in the last few years.
I have to confess I took my own advice and ate at Rivera more times than I really needed to. I couldn't help myself -- Rivera's food is so utterly unique. I couldn't believe it was actually that good and had to keep pinching myself. But the hyper-talented chef nailed it every time, virtually every dish, a remarkable feat in a restaurant hot off the presses.
Despite the odd location on the ground level of the Met Lofts building, the space designed by Italian architect Osvaldo Maiozzi and designer (and business partner) Eddie Sotto is beautiful, a long, sleek room with ceviche bar and a huge, square communal table at one end. Banquettes hug one long wall beneath a 40-foot electronic mural of evocative and poetic images (Maya ruins, agave, lizards, abstract forms) that dissolve into one another throughout the evening. The small bar features bronze and leather tequila tasting chairs designed by Sotto and riffing off the R in Rivera -- Sedlar's middle name.
Compared with his cooking at Abiquiu, his late Santa Monica restaurant, Sedlar's food here is less tricked up, more elegant and focused. At last, here's a chef who doesn't get caught up in a cartoon -- POWEE! WOWEE! -- celebration of Latin cuisine, using the blunt force of chile to punch everything up.
Sedlar, who in the 1970s cut his teeth working under the late great Jean Bertranou at L'Ermitage, shows a beguiling finesse in the way he combines the vocabulary of Latin cuisines with a command of French technique. He manages to seamlessly integrate chiles and spices into his dishes. Nothing sticks out or hits you over the head, and yet the result is fascinating and complex.
And boy, does he have an eye. He puts plates together with brilliant slashes of color and contrast that are just as effective on the palate as the palette -- and that's not even including the plates that come ornamented with Pop-art slogans, such as "Courtesy is not a sign of weakness," stenciled in powdered chiles and spices.
A swatch of banana leaf is unfurled to make a frame around the fluffy tamale studded with braised pork short rib and hedgehog mushrooms. A long roasted chilaca chile pepper marches down a line of juicy Cara Cara orange slices in a vinaigrette infused with black garlic. A rectangular plate with an inset the size of a cigarette pack holds flavorful grilled quail, slivered oyster mushrooms and black beans with a hint of sweetness and smoke. Duck enfrijolada -- one of the best dishes here -- is a stack of blue corn tortillas and shredded confit bathed in black bean purée and a deep scarlet-black Cabernet chile rojo sauce scattered with crimson rose petals.
Tortillas, flowers
But before all that, you must start with an order of the tortillas florales: four little corn tortillas, handmade and still warm, tucked under a napkin. The corn is freshly ground nixtamal, and each tortilla has a sprig of herb or a flower pressed into its surface. Browned from the griddle, they're like fossils embedded in the tortilla's surface. The taste is incredible, earthy and basic. Spread a little of the buttery smooth avocado butter on top: heaven.
Another must is the xnipec or "dog's snout" salsa, so-called because it's supposed to be so hot it makes your nose run like a dog's snout. Don't be afraid. Though it's made with charred habanero, it isn't that hot, more a marvelous melding of smoke and earth, bright-tasting and a deep mahogany in color. It's served with fried tortilla chips cut into thin, sharp shards that remind me of cactus needles. I scoop and scoop and scoop until all the chips are gone and ask for more.
Both are brilliant with a pretty perfect margarita: lots of lime, not too sweet, on the rocks. Or one of the exotic tequila-based cocktails or infused tequilas mixologist Julian Cox puts together every day. Right now, I'm in love with the pink peppercorn and pomelo. But there's also blood orange, cinnamon, etc. The flavors change all the time, and you can order them in a flight of three 1-ounce pours. Sedlar knows his tequilas. He's been the spokesman for Patrón tequila for years.
Wines to match
The restaurant also has a fine wine list of mostly bottles from Spain, Portugal and South America. Here's the chance to taste wines from up-and-coming regions in Spain, for example, or some minerally Vinho Verde or exceptional dry reds coming out of Portugal right now. The stemware is gorgeous and servers all know how to pour wine correctly. The list was put together by master sommelier Steve Geddes; the sommelier on the floor is Jordan Ogron, who grew up in Kenya and is a relaxed and thoughtful presence. Take advantage too of the fact that Rivera's list offers a number of sherries and, even more rare, Madeiras by the glass from $5 to $128, the latter for a 1907 D'Oliveira Malvasia.
Allow Ogron to suggest a red, perhaps a Numanthia Tempranillo or Clos Mogador Garnacha for the pato al vino, an appetizer that features more of that duck confit, which has to be the best in town right now, for its depth of flavor, silky texture and the way the flesh falls away from the bone. Notice how Sedlar plates the duck leg on white porcelain, allowing a pool of Rioja reduction the color of a rare violin's varnish to follow the contours of the duck. It's ornamented only with a single, short green-black chile pepper. If Sedlar hadn't become a cook, he could easily have been a painter.
Another great wine dish is Kurobuta pork chop napped in a velvety black mole that spills into a shallow puddle accented with toasted pepita seeds. The mole is an intricate embroidery of flavors, so tightly massed it's impossible to pull them apart. That's great, but the Maya puerco pibil, pork braised in a banana leaf, takes pork shoulder to a whole new level of tenderness.
In fact, in all of my visits, the only dish that misses the mark is piquillo pepper stuffed with Gruyère -- the cheese is too rich and heavy.
Final flourish
Desserts are pared to a few, most ideal for sharing. Like the baba cachaça, a yeast cake soaked in the white Brazilian spirit rather than the typical rum. It looks like a religieuse pastry dressed up for a wedding with frilly whipped cream peeking out from the cake and a clutch of grapefruit and blood orange segments on the side to set off the aching sweetness. Estudio en flan is a study of three tender, differently flavored flans, a perfect ending to a fascinating meal.
Until now, Sedlar has been performing to a half-full house. The question is whether the kitchen and staff can perform at this same high level when the restaurant is truly busy. Right now they have plenty of time to do everything right. Sedlar is still fussing with the menu and the ceviche bar isn't yet in full production.
What goes down once the crowds start coming in earnest will determine whether Rivera will become one of L.A.'s great restaurants. What Sedlar has proven is that he's more than capable of cooking at the highest level. And also that he's one of L.A.'s most original chefs. Sui generis.

Court Blocks EPA Biofuels Mandate
The big news on court decisions was about the Obama violating the Constitution when he made 3 recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board (which made Lawyers, Guns, and Money's Scott Lemieux go barking moonbat with his headline). Yet, another was just as important but slid under the rada
(Daily Caller) A federal court delivered a serious blow to the Environmental Protection Agency's renewable fuel agenda, ruling that the agency exceeded its authority by mandating refiners use cellulosic biofuels, which isn't commercially available.
The court sided with the country's chief oil and gas lobby, the American Petroleum Institute, in striking down the 2012 EPA mandate that would have forced refineries to purchase more than $8 million in credits for 8.65 million of gallons of the cellulosic biofuel. However, none of the biofuel is commercially available.
"[W]e agree with API that EPA's 2012 projection of cellulosic biofuel production was in excess of the agency's statutory authority," reads the court decision.
The problem here is that cellulosic biofuel doesn't exist commercially
"We are glad the court has put a stop to EPA's pattern of setting impossible mandates for a biofuel that does not even exist," API Group Downstream Director Bob Greco said in a statement. "This absurd mandate acts as a stealth tax on gasoline with no environmental that could have ultimately burdened consumers."
Instead of dealing with real environmental issues, the EPA has gone rogue (not something really new) and has over-involved itself in creating fuel mandates that provide no benefits for motorists (and can harm engine systems along with providing reduced power) and would increase the price of fuel, all in the name of "climate change". And let's not forget that all these biofuels tend to use massive amounts of water, increase the cost of food, and, in some cases, increase greenhouse gas output. In this particular case it was about mandating the purchase and use of a biofuel that didn't exist.

In bowl games, Ducks have had tricks up their sleeves
Posted by Rob Moseley
From today's editions:
PHOENIX — Football practice for the Ducks was closed to the public Monday, as it will be all week leading up to the BCS National Championship game, and so no one can be sure what sort of devious tricks Oregon was up to as it prepares to face Auburn.
All that is certain, if history is any indication, is that the Ducks were indeed up to some devious tricks.
Whether on offense or special teams, Oregon has usually been good for at least one trick play in each of its bowl games over the years. From double passes to flea flickers to a throwback to Joey Harrington for a touchdown in the 2000 Holiday Bowl, UO coaches have put the extra time to prepare for postseason games to good use.
Without tipping his hand, Oregon offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich acknowledged that having more than just a week to prepare for a bowl game opens up the opportunity to get creative on offense — as long as there's purpose.
"As a coach, you're going to do it for a reason," Helfrich said. "You're not going to do it just because it makes the crowd get on the edge of their seats, or it looks cool or something like that. You're going to devise that from something you saw (on film), or something you saw somebody else do; how they react to a certain formation or action.
"And from there, it is fun, it is different."
The Ducks haven't been shy about using trick plays in bowl games, running a flea flicker on their first offensive snap of the 2006 Las Vegas Bowl, though not successfully. Oregon's first possession of the 2008 Holiday Bowl began with a lateral across the field to receiver Jeff Maehl, who tossed it back to quarterback Jeremiah Masoli, who completed a deep pass to Jamere Holland.
Those indicate the sort of "home runs" that coaches are trying to hit when they devise something tricky.
"We've been able to, within the structure of our offense, have some trick-ish type of elements," Helfrich said of Oregon's spread-option, which creates the potential for misdirection plays on essentially every snap. "But you're always going to have eight to 10 ways to really stretch the field a game. And within that would be maybe a reverse or a double pass, or some sort of flea flicker."

Zackduckfan, nw
As for me ive never really been a fan of trick plays. It's not that i think the trick plays are ineffective, its the fact that if the play doesn't have a positive outcome the players get disctracted and seem to waste a seires of downs. It does make for amusing football though.
worldwidewebfoot, San Francisco
I enjoy successful trick plays as much as anyone. But they are high risk. What I would like to see is even more creative, deceptive, ball handling. I still love the video of the 2007 Michigan game and the Statue of Liberty play(s). Darron Thomas and LMJ should be able to run that beautifully. How can the defense adjust if they don't know which Duck has the ball, and where?
Makes me wish we hadn't shown that fake punt in the CW; we didn't need it to win. And I hope we can be creative on defense as well. I loved what Stanford did with the double A-gap blitz, and then just holding contain on Tyrod Taylor to contain his scrambles.
Webbed Foot Warrior
One of my favorite trick plays was against Stanford with the onside kick. It was a thing of beauty. Chip is the best coach in college football.
Is it Monday yet?
pinfeathers, Couv
Thought Stanford did a great job of containing (mini-Cam) Tyrod Taylor last night. Used Skov, their linebacker as spy and ends would not let him get outside. He had to scramble through the middle and found it littered with the big boys. Forced him to win it through the air and well that didn't work to well. Hope the Ducks tuned in.
@ mark
It wasn't that we needed the fake punt to win, Kelly called that play because of what he saw on film. He was quoted after the game saying he was going to run that fake punt no matter what, even if he was on his own one yard line because he knew how the beavers lined up. With that being said I'm sure chip will pick up on speacial team tendiencys from auburn and have something ready if the opportunity presents itself.
Go Ducks! WTD
Thunderr, 714
The greatest trick play we will pull is psyching the other team into thinking every play is a going to be a trick play. Enabling us to execute our standard game flawlessly.
Jerry, The Land of Bowerman
I'm a fan of "trick" plays, but Helfrich is right. You don't just run a trick play—there has to be a reason for doing it and the timing has to be right.
Civil War fake punt was a huge momentum shift. The swinging gate has worked at times this year for extra points.
And to their credit, can anyone forget Boise St. (I can't wait to hear the boos about this, but it's on topic) and the statue of liberty vs. Oklahoma a few years back, or their fake punt last year vs. TCU?
One I haven't seen for a while but was very effective was the Nebraska "fumblerooski" where the QB deliberately placed the ball on the ground for the O lineman to pick up and run with, usually for a touchdown.
I don't necessarily see a trick play winning this game, but there could be one that has an impact on momentum. Wouldn't be surprised to see us use a shuffle pass to Barner or James or a reverse to Huff. Even if these things don't work, sometimes it's important to keep a defense off balance.
Go Ducks!
Going Qwackers (GQ), PDX- On final approach runway 28L
Bless ESPN! They are such East Coast homers, even Herbstreit. I had to laugh last night when only Chris Fowler, as an offset to Herbstreit and his cohort, predicted that Stanford would win. Herbie and company predicted that Stanford couldn't handle the pressure and that the Hokies would pull an upset. Surprise! Stanford creamed the Hokies. Also enjoyable was listening to the game callers marveling at Stanford after they took control. One of them said that if Stanford was that good Oregon must be incredible to have beaten them. The other, noting he had attended several Oregon practices, said Oregon has an offense that "shreds" defenses and that Oregon runs plays he never knew existed. Yes, the PAC 10 plays big boy ball too.
I think you really hit the nail on the head about "trickeration." It has to serve a purpose and is only one play in many more. Auburn has been known to pull a trick or two during games and will likely do so in the NC as well. Stanford shifted at least 4 times in one play last night, lining up all over the place, but it went for no gain when they finally hiked the ball.
If our offense is clicking then this game will come down to defense, not trick plays. We have to get a lot of three and outs. That will be the real trick.
I really cannot help but hope Kelly pulls a fast one and in the first series run Oregon out of an I-Formation, uses the fly-sweep, and runs it very slowly!! For maybe 3 to 4 plays and then jumps into the spread and run it very quickly!
Play with them Coach, play with them!!
MarcTheDuck, pdx
What I'm hoping for above all else is a stellar performance from Darron Thomas. If he has an "A" game passing and can improve his fakes some then we should fire on all cylinders on the offense (it will open up the running game a lot).
Defense needs to do its part and not allow Auburn to either score on every possession or control the ball for major chunks of the game, but the real key, in my mind, is how DT performs. A lot of pressure on our soph QB. But he is a cool cookie.
JoeyNice, PDX
No Surprises. Every single bowl game has had trickery.
GoDucks808, Honolulu
Super story, Rob—how much of this do you just recall and how much is researched?
pinfeathers, Couv
Marc, agree. Gotta figure Auburn knows they MUST stop LaMike/Kenyon or they're toast. Also need to keep an eye on DT's keepers. So they stack. Pretty simple logic watching the Ducks offense. Can DT, O-line, receivers, game plan, and coaches make them pay?
6 days….... -
Spike89, Springfield
Thunderr nails it…the biggest advantage of running a trick play is that it makes the defense think instead of react. In a sense, it doesn't matter if it is successful, the advantage comes in the plays that follow.
Likewise, it is important to show trick plays throughout the season. Running the fake punt at OSU may not have been "needed", but Auburn surely saw that we have that in our playbook and maybe their punt cover team sticks around a 1/2 second longer before getting back to block on returns. We'll never know, but maybe it prevents a big return that could have given Auburn a boost. If nothing else, Auburn had to waste time practicing against the fake. -
Some good old Oregon DT@ QB slight of hand, who has and where did the ball go will do the trick.
Down an extra 12oz bottle of water the night before guys. And one first thing in the morning. It is a desert, that is the trick.
Jerry, The Land of Bowerman
Going Qwackers:
Yes, it was hilarious to hear the talking heads ignoring an entire season of competition and picking the upset-minded Virginia Tech, though Stanford had one of the best offensive lines in the country this year (are you listening, Mark May?). A perfect example of why we have the term East Coast Bias in our vocabulary.
I'm sure Stanford is laughing their butts off today; I know I am.
VT had no running game, that was the difference.
StumptownSteve, Stumptown
One reason to run the statute of liberty, and/or the fly sweep, and or options, is to keep Fairley honest, and not allow him an excuse to make a late and dirty hit on DT.
New Attitude, In the OC - Finally, the sun is back
Going Quackers #9. You are right. The four shift play went nowhere. But the following play went for big yards if I remember correctly. So, was it being set up by the four shift play?
Bob, Seoul
Several have hit the nail on the head – trickeration is designed to make a defense pay, usually for over pursuing or sometimes poor technique that they have shown a tendency to make. Chip and staff are wonderful at spotting tendencies by certain players or teams and making them pay. Auburn is well aware of this and will come out of the gate with their thinking caps on. But thinking caps down tend to slow down a defense, and all too often you see defense players throw them off and abandon technique in hopes of making that big play for a loss. This is when Oregon needs to make them pay with the big plays. This is also why the Ducks are so good later in the game. As defenses start to get tired they make more mental mistakes and are out of position. Playing from behind also means that thinking caps get thrown off in favor of trying to get turnovers.
A big key in this game will be how successful Oregon can be in getting Auburn to throw off their thinking caps. Come on Tigers, you know you're better than us, you know you're bigger, stronger, faster, and most of all, you're SEC. Just come out and put a whopping on us! That's the mindset we want. I honestly believe we are better coached, more disciplined, and very, very deep in super fast talent.
Goooo Ducks, WTD!!!! -
Tennessee Charles, Oak Ridge, Tennessee
Personally, I hope the Oregon players have _icks up their sleeves. The better to screw the opposition.
E. OR Duck, E. Oregon
I full expect Daryle Hawkins to play at receiver on a couple plays taking a hand off a runner then taking one and throwing the ball.

We are experiencing a crisis, and facing it we are not able anymore to understand it or finding solutions to it without a paradimg shift in our thinking. Such shift involves theories about complexity, emergence, network, self-organization, material systems, digital tools and their consequences on our model of reality, knowledge, cognition, culture, economy, ecology and, ultimately, architecture.
What is the common element in this network of interconnected systems? All of them are operating in a continuous changing condition (far from equilibrium) and rely on information (matter-energy) exchange. Information lies at the bottom of physical things, it is involved in morphogenesis as well as in the evolution of culture and communication.
We'll take a look on how information plays that role in nature (as well as what nature is under this perspective) and in architecture, especially in its linkages with digital tools and generative and parametric approaches.
in[form]ation is a lecture about the role of information (both as knowledge unit and morphogenetic driver) in generative processes and design strategies in the world of complexity. How do we move from a crisis towards an improved awareness of nature as a system of emergent processes, non linear networks and digital tools as media for design and production? The lecture tries to address this multiplicitous question, and since february 2009, when it was first presented, it was changed ad evolved to the present set of slides.

Most probably it will evolve further, nonetheless we would like to share it at the present level for a very important reason: it does not matter that much to us to deliver a smoothly refined discourse in order to elegantly wrap up the topic, rather our intention is to trigger the discussion bringing our point of view, with its inevitable imperfections. Only in the confrontation among different positions there is the chance of growth and change.
What you will find in the document above are the lecture slides.

Lecture material is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike3.0 UnportedLicense.The entire course, based at the Polytechnic of Milan, will take place through studies, workshops and working periods assisted (during the development, manufacture and test trial) by a team of highly skilled professionals and teachers (from studies and international schools like AA London, ARUP, Buro Happold, Zaha Hadid, Gehry Technologies, SPAN Architects ...).
The objective is to design, prototype, and finally test "multi-performative skins" through computational design software. Audits in progress performance of the "skin" will be the main feedback to optimize the final design.
The course will be completed by a series of public lectures held by the same course tutors and other professionals and teachers of international renown.
TAC Technically Advanced Construction è un corso di perfezionamento per laureati e professionisti promosso dal Dipartimento di Scienza e Tecnologie dell'Ambiente Costruito (BEST) del Politecnico di Milano. Avrà una durata di tre mesi e permetterà ai partecipanti di raggiungere livelli specifici di conoscenza nel processo di "design-to-production" tramite l'uso di strumenti digitali avanzati per la progettazione e macchinari per la creazione e lo sviluppo di modelli fisici.
L'intero corso, con sede al Politecnico di Milano, si svolgerà attraverso studi, workshop, e periodi di lavoro costantemente assistiti (durante lo sviluppo, la fabbricazione e i test di prova) da uno staff di professionisti e insegnanti altamente specializzati (provenienti da studi e scuole internazionali come AA London, ARUP, Buro Happold, Zaha Hadid, Gehry Technologies, SPAN Architects...).
L'obiettivo è la progettazione, la prototipazione, e infine il collaudo di "multi-performative skins" tramite software per il design computazionale. Le verifiche in itinere delle performance della "skin" costituiranno il feedback principale per ottimizzare il design finale.
Il corso TAC sarà affiancato e completato da una serie di lectures "live" aperte a tutti e gratuite, tenute dagli stessi tutors del corso e da professionisti e insegnanti di fama internazionale.
Il corso inizierà il 17 gennaio 2011 e terminerà il 15 aprile 2011 (frequenza giornaliera).The workshop is an exploration about different ways to generate architectural outcomes through the translation of information-based and information-driven morphogenetic processes via digital tools.
The students, working in groups, should create an architectural skin (an enveloping system with structural capacity, able to generate space and mediate environmental conditions via information processing) based on morphogenetic strategies, conditions and information extracted and translated from their investigations and experimentations.
Students are asked to design an architectural piece which primary function is light treatment, but also spatially able to choreograph human movement in terms of fluxes, play and effects, altering an existing place within the AIU (whether inside the building or outside in the garden). The focus of the project is on how light manipulation (how to treat it, how to play with it, how intense/intricate/dimmed/choreographic/theatrical/etc. they want it to be) in a spatial artifact can affect the perception and use of a known space.
The main objective is to extract the information from the research as an input in order to generate a new 3D spatial output, communicating the design process through the digital skills taught during the workshop.

Any thoughts on the JK Thermic 2.5m from www.arthobby.com
I'm interested in picking up the JK Thermic 2.5m from www.arthhobby.com . This would be my first pure glider. There is a field that close to my house that usually has a high start available on the weekends. Most of the guys there use the 100" + wing spans. I would like to spend no more than $200 on the plane. From what I've heard at the guys at the field is to stick with the larger wing designs opposed to the 80" planes. Are flaps crucial in the larger planes? Can I get away with just mixing the ailerons for flaps? The radio I plan to use is the Hi-Tec Flash 5x.
Here is the link to the plane: http://www.arthobby.com/gliders/specs/thermic.html |

One more thing..
Cheers |
Apr 03, 2002, 06:24 PM | |
Would it be best then to use the HS-81 servos? or even the MG HS-81? In regards to mixingl, I need to research if the Hi-Tec Flash 5x will allow that. Wouldn't I need to add an extra control surface to get full crow? Also would it be a good idea to add a carbon spar into the wing for added durability? My intentions is launch this on a hi-start on a regular basis. Will it be suited for this type of launch?
Apr 03, 2002, 07:46 PM | |
As far as I know you cannot operate a 6-servo sailplane with the Flash5x. You would need a radio that was capable of all the mixing. And yes, you would need to add 2 servos, cut the flaps out and reinforce the new TE with balsa. It may be possible with your radio to add the flaps but slave them together as one surface (Y-cable) and operate it on the 5th channel.
As Tclark mentioned, you cant fit HS-55s in the fuse, but no reason I can think of not to use hs-81s in the wing (as long as its thick enough). I spoke with Andre at Art hobby about launching the Thermic. He said a regular high-start was fine, but be careful on a winch. I think it would be difficult to add a carbon spar to the wing, but I would lean towards covering the wing in clear monokote or similar if you're going to use something other than a regular high-start. |

Even though no symptoms exist, and vehicle was brought in for service due to battery terminal ends on motor listed as reason for non-starts/battery-drain causing non-starts. Is it possible to need an idle control motor replaced even though no symptoms exist? There's been No erratic idle, no abrupt shut-offs etc. Should i replace based on their word and should i ask to view diagnostic code error. Thank you. I'm not sure how big of an issue/important to replace given the absence of symptoms.

Answer #1
ziptie12 November 01, 2012, 18:13MasterCodes will sometimes 'set' due to voltage errors , so it's possible they found a DTC stored for IAC , but if the code is cleared and doesn't return , I would wait and see what happens. Was the check engine light on when you brought it to them for service?

kevg3, November 01, 2012, 18:34RookieNo check engine light was on. However, 30days ago when originally thought it was just the battery (replaced even though battery tested well, so i believe the $75 battery terminal end repair), I had jump-started vehicle and for a good 4-5min upon starting engine would not idle, needed to be revved or stall, and finally "recovered" and acted normally. So, im not sure if loss of power that re-set everything (i.e.) time display, saved radio stations had temporarily effected something, or maybe that was "first" problem with idle motor, resumed functioning, and more problems on way but they caught diagnosis before regular symptoms appear. Thank you for answering. I'd prefer to save the $232, but not at the expense of "it was gonna start messing up, now you're on side of road". Your opinion/response on matter is highly appreciated. Thanks again. ~kevg3

ziptie12, November 03, 2012, 10:58MasterWHEN PCM'S ARE RESET(BATTERY DISCONNECT OR SCANNER) MANY CARS HAVE TO GO THROUGH A RE-LEARN PROCESS. IF THE START-UP IDLE HAS BEEN NORMAL SINCE THEN , AND NO CEL ON , THEN IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S OKAY. IF YOU WANT , IT WOULDN'T HURT TO HAVE IT SCANNED FOR 'PENDING' CODES.

your.mechanic November 01, 2012, 19:05MasterWhen did this happen? I am sure it is fixed...you did not get stranded....yet.

kevg3, November 01, 2012, 19:57RookieYeah, my thoughts are 50/50 leaning towards your side. Battery always seemed "weak" since purchase last Dec. (couldn't use headlight delay-off feature, accessories off cranks better), but it's a real nice '03 Overland, looks brand new in&out +motor), never had a stall last winter, or bad cold-start. 35days ago turn key, no start, lights accessories worked then not. Jumped it(had the no idle, must rev 5min.) Same day later, same issue. Had new battery installed but they expressed might be more than battery. 3wks later, no start, jump, get home, am no start, brought to dealer, (warranty is covering ALL sorts of other expensive stuff, AC evaporator, water pump, motor mount..). Great. But, then dealer says i "hav2pay $75 for terminal ends 2fix starting problem.... and idle air motor $232, pulley and serpentine belts $235 ..(warranty co replacing water-pump bcuz tech heard bearing noise)& vehicle needs all this, + H-valve, inspection fee". So, i just thought to self Hmmmm warranty is shelling them out $1,680, now they're seein what kinda extra cash they can squeeze out of me. *I did ask them to go thru vehicle well and fix ANYTHING warranty covered, just let me know if anything else necessary. Figured must need few things, maybe $300-$350. So, when they say $800+$100 deductible. I just had to question it. Like i said, only that once 35days ago did it ever "stall-out". Thank you as well for input. Greatly appreciated. ~kevg3

kevg3, November 01, 2012, 20:09RookieDidn't seem to have any problem last winter, no cold-start problems yet this year either, but that's what dealer said.. You haven't noticede because it hasn't gotten cold enough yet, but you will, says "he 'duplicated' event during diagnosis" gotta fix it or it won't stay running... Aaagghh, it's called being gored on the horns of a dilemma. Kinda screwed either way. Either $232 wasted, or 40-50days from now, i'm in 8degree weather on side of road waitin for AAA thinking, 'man $232 doesn't seem all that bad right now'. However, as i stated to answer #2, it gets ya thinking.. 'Ok warranty is payin for ALL this expensive little/big things wrong, dealer is sayin, "ok attach sumn to every covered problem y'kno? like warranty will pay for water-pump, but buddy you need to pay $235 to do pulley and serpentine belts, and umm yeah, idle control motor is $232 on you as well" That way i don't walk in, pay my $100 deductible + $75 to fix start + diagnose $169, which was what i was expecting, but instead get the extra $500-$600 added. Again thanks to everyone for answering. It helps to know what i can or should say to them re repairs and prices and why "necessary" questions. Information/knowledge is power, so thank you.~kevg3

Things I liked:I so realistic, and come on!! there is nothing so well looking than a colt python so been this a good replica,.. Things I would have changed:the grips are to cheep, the gun demands better grips. What others should know:I just get this one today and the cylinder is too lose I think, I'm going to return it and see and see if the second has the same problem.
Use clear Mylar tape around the sleeve bushing and shaft and around the tilt out pivot shaft and it will take out almost all the looseness. Things I liked:realistic, just like the original Things I would have changed:cylinder does not lock in place. you can turn just by hand. What others should know:great gun for the money Things I liked:I like that this bb revolver seems so realistic with the shells you load, I also like s/d action on this its very fun to shoot and reload with speed loader is a snap. Looks Flat Black and very real looking, I'm glad I grabbed one !! Things I would have changed:I myself would change the co2 loading system to a Mag co2 that will slide up the Grip. But the down side to that would mean a longer Grip and I like this one it has !!! I'm sure someone can figure something out ??? What others should know:This is a replacement Revolver the first one they shipped leaked co2 bad, I was worried that all of them may do this ? But so far so good I fired about 65 shots per co2 & did some sighting in.It seems to be pretty accurate for a 4" barrel. Trigger is a bit stiff but i'm hoping in time it will break in but I don't know its my first bb Revolver ? So far i'm very happy with it, and it seems well built and sturdy all Metal besides the Grips they are Plastic & the Safety is rt behind the Hammer of Revolver this seems to be Plastic ass well and that's probably the only down side to the whole Gun. I like the manual safety's that are half a pull back on the Hammer But it's very nice and i'm glad to have it in my collection !! I only fired 2 co2's though this Gun & trust me it was fun, I don't know about the Dan Wesson's or Smith & Wesson's but this was what I could afford. I hope they sell extra shell for this Revolver sure could use more but I don't need too many speed loader's !!! And again TY to P.A. for their fast & very helpful sales people shipping is Fast !!!
I forgot to add that this Revolver has a good weight to it it feels very well built and Solid !! Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers
