Vt. officials urge adults to get vaccinatedThe Associated Press | December 13,2012BURLINGTON — Vermont health officials are urging adults to get a new vaccine for whooping cough as the state deals with an outbreak of the disease.
More than 500 people have been affected by whooping cough or pertussis this year. That's 10 times the amount reported by the end of 2011.
More than 20 babies younger than a year have had the disease and six infants have had to be hospitalized.
The Health Department is recommending that anyone over 19 get a Tdap vaccine, which is a booster against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis, to help prevent the spread of the disease.
The Health Department will be holding free vaccination clinics next Wednesday at its 12 local district offices around the state for Vermonters who can't get to their doctor for a shot.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER The Vermont House on Friday passed a $1.

These are very nice bedside chests, however disappointed the drawers are not on runners. They do not open and close easily, you will have to be gentle with them when using.Read More
Put in my guest bedroom. Came put together. Carried upstairs and placed next to bed. Easy.Read More
Stylish, good price
The color of the nightstand is very dark espresso (close to black) as shown in the picture. Style is contemporary and I liked it. The drawers are not that smooth to open and close. And too much packaging (could have done with less packaging material)Read More
Great Match to Another Night Stand
I had a nightstand from Home Goods that needed a match. This was very similar and very affordable. Glad we purchased this item!Read More
10 times better than ever expected
I have been looking for a pair of nightstands to match other furniture in my bedroom. I have looked for 6 months. Then it occurred to me to check Overstock.com, as I had found some cute bar stools a year ago. The best feature Overstock has in their filters is "Already Assembled". I purchased furniture from IKEA, and it took forever to assemble it and ever review prior to this on other websites, that was the most complained about issue (assembling the item). So, I took advantage of this, and to my surprise, when the furniture arrived, it was already completely assembled AND they protected the handle my screwing into the inside of the drawer. They took such good care in packing the nightstand (and I bought 2 nightstands) that it took me 45 minutes just to take off all of the bubble wrap and packing foam. I've never seen such good protection. I highly appreciate. I'm sure that had to cost them extra and it was such nice material that I was able to give it to a friend to use so that I didn't have to put it in the landfill. Okay... bottom line. Totally cute product, exactly what I wanted, looks fantastic, and was protected more than I ever could have anticipated. And, to top this off, it was already assembled. Now, I'm going to order one more just for my office. Great job Overstock!Read More
Stylish good quality for excellant price
These are good quality nightstands. I love the price. The only thing about these I didnt like was one of the drawers doesnt open and close smoothly. Hopefully over time it will fix itself. Overall these nighstands are worth the price.Read More
Excellent quality, very stylish
Great quality for the price. The packaging was indestructible. The only thing to note is the color is closer to black than brown.Read More
Beautiful Piece
This piece is perfect for the entryway to my bathroom; it pairs perfectly with the full-length mirrored jewelry armoire in the same line. The nightstand was packaged extremely securely and assembly was a breeze. I only had to screw on the handles. Gorgeous, high quality and substantial looking piece of furniture.Read More

Nightstand Buying Guide
To create a balanced atmosphere in your bedroom, finding the right nightstand is essential. A nightstand is an end table for the bedroom. In almost every case, it stands beside your bed as a useful space for storing and displaying the things any good end table might: a table lamp, an alarm clock, a book or magazine, a pair of glasses, a small plant, a drinking glass, a framed picture. All night stands are built with your basic bedside requirements in mind, but there are important distinctions in nightstand utility and style. Luckily, this nightstand buying guide gives you all the information you need to determine how to buy a nightstand that brings you closer to the bedroom of your dreams.
How to Choose a Wood Lathe
Wood lathes are simple machines that allow you to make beautifully symmetrical woodwork. Wood lathes consist of an electric motor, two points, called the "headstock" and the "tailstock," and a chisel or gouge. As the motor turns the piece of wood secured between the headstock and the tailstock, the chisel carves. With a wood lathe in your collection of power tools, you'll be able to make a wide variety of items, including wooden pens, table legs, banisters and even wooden salad bowls. Although lathes are fairly simplistic tools, finding the right lathe for you can take some time and research.
Top 5 Items to Store in a Nightstand
Keeping necessary items close to you on your nightstand is reassuring and convenient. When you need something, all you have to do is reach for the drawer in your bedside nightstand and voila! You have it in your hand without ever having to leave your warm bed. Nothing is more frustrating than having to frequently get out of bed to retrieve items after you've lain down for some rest. Make sure bedtime stays bedtime by keeping your bedside nightstand properly stocked with your must-have items. Take a look below to learn the top five items to store in a nightstand.
How to Maintain Hinges on a 2-drawer Armoire
Of the many different armoire styles, the 2-drawer armoire is one of the most popular. A 2-drawer armoire generally has, of course, two drawers at the bottom of the armoire as well as two swinging hinged doors that open to spacious closet space. With the hinges swinging back and forth, they are without a doubt the most worked part of a 2-drawer armoire. Hinges on wardrobe armoires are built to endure constant use, but you can extend their life through proper maintenance. Here are a few tips on making sure the hinges on your 2-drawer armoire last as long as possible.
Best Lamp for Your Child's Room
Eliminate shadows and dark shapes when you buy a lamp to brighten up your son or daughter's bedroom. Whether you want a whimsical wood lamp for a daughter who enjoys reading books or colorful table lamps for your son's nightstand, you're sure to find kids' lamps that your children will love. Read on for tips on buying the best lamp for your child's room.
Tips for Using Your Golf Irons
Before you can use your irons effectively, you need to understand what they are. In golf there are two types of clubs: woods and irons. The heads on woods used to be made of wood and the heads on irons used to be made of iron; both types of clubs can be made of metal these days, and steel has replaced iron as the most common material. Now that you know what irons are, read on for tips on how to use them on the course.
Cabinet Buying Guide
In addition to the built-in cabinets and fitments that came with your house, cabinets can be gorgeous free-standing showpieces suited to any number of rooms. In order to maximize the decor possibilities of this unique type of furniture, you will want to learn the basics. Consider your storage needs, including shelving, drawers and locks, and think about your personal style and the space available for your new cabinet. This cabinet buying guide should help you zero in on the ideal cabinet for your needs.
Entertainment Center Buying Guide
While your television set may be the focal point of your home entertainment activities, what it sits on -- or in -- says a lot about who you are. Is your TV still sitting atop that beaten up particle board TV stand that you bought at a garage sale 10 years ago? Perhaps it's time to upgrade your living room furniture, starting with a new entertainment center. Home entertainment centers have been around a long time and have evolved quite a bit from the massive wooden cabinets of the 1960s and 1970s. Which entertainment center is right for you will depend on what you want to use it for, the components you want it to store and your personal taste in furniture.
How to Select Kitchen Flooring
Selecting kitchen flooring is a personal choice and one that depends in large part on the dynamics of your kitchen and the size of your budget. Kitchen floors can be made from beautiful but somewhat fragile solid wood, traditional porcelain tiles or more durable vinyl and laminate options. The flooring in your kitchen should ideally be both beautiful and durable. Select kitchen flooring that will complement the decor of your kitchen and stand up to the spills, scuffs and scratches of everyday life.
How to Bead a Necklace
Beaded necklaces are beautiful, versatile pieces of jewelry. You can bead a necklace with a variety of beads, from crystals to hand-painted wooden loose beads. Beaded necklaces can be worn with an array of outfits, day or night. They also make great gifts, especially when they are handmade and tailored specifically for the recipient. Beading only takes a few supplies and can be learned easily, yet it is a fun and interesting hobby. Beading a necklace is so simple that you might soon find yourself with a jewelry box full of beautiful beaded necklaces in every color.
How to Keep a Hammock Safe
Hammocks evoke images of summertime peace and lazy afternoons with a good book. There are many more styles of hammocks and swings now than in the past; you don't have to set up a hammock between two trees anymore if you don't want to. Many are instead used with hammock stands. Although some hammocks are built with safety in mind, there are still things you must pay attention to in order to keep a hammock safe. If used improperly, hammocks may pose a serious fall hazard or risk of strangulation.
Tips on Buying an Indoor Fireplace
Nothing is quite as soothing as a crackling indoor fireplace when you want warmth on a chilly night. Fortunately, you can get the heat and calming effect of a wood-burning fireplace without the upkeep and mess when you buy one of the modern indoor fireplaces for your home. Whether you want a wall-mount fireplace for a small living room or a corner fireplace for your bedroom, you're sure to find a fireplace that keeps you cozy for years to come. Read on for tips on buying an indoor fireplace.
Best Binding Attachments for Snowshoes
Strapping on a pair of snowshoes opens up a whole new world of winter adventure. Once you have a pair of snowshoes, you can boldly go where you have never gone before. Because they spread the surface area of your footfall, snowshoes prevent your weight from sinking into the snow, so you can get around, even in deep powder. From the first wooden snowshoes, snowshoe designs have expanded to work for a wide range of adventurers. Now you can find many snowshoes for sale, from backcountry snowshoes to running snowshoes. However, snowshoes won't do you much good without binding attachments to keep them on your feet. There are two main types of snowshoe bindings: free rotation and fixed rotation.
Tents Buying Guide
When you get out of the house and live under a tent, even for a night or two, you are joining a tradition as old as humanity. Nowadays, camping tents are used for recreation more than as a necessity. Still, there is a timeless appeal about camping in a tent. Modern tents come in a wide variety of sizes and styles. Knowing a few basics will help you purchase exactly the tent you need for your next expedition. We're more than happy to help you find it.
How to Install Blackout Curtains
Blackout curtains can keep a room cool and dark even when it's bright and sunny outside. A completely dark room is a wonderful thing if you have a job that requires you to work all night or even if you just want a dark room for watching a movie when it's light outside. In addition, blackout window treatments help you conserve energy by keeping heat in and cold out or vice versa. You have two choices when it comes to installing blackout curtains: You can buy curtains that come with blackout liners already sewn in, or you can add panels of blackout fabric to the curtains you already own.
Best Stylish Diaper Bags
Every parent knows that having an infant means toting around a lot of baby gear. Carrying everything you need for a day (or night, you lucky thing) out with your baby doesn't mean you have to give up looking good; stylish diaper bags are available, and they mean you can look great and still be prepared for whatever blowouts come your way. Before you purchase a diaper bag, consider where you'll be using it and how long you'll be away from home. You can choose the best diaper bag for any situation. With all the choices in stylish diaper bags, you just might need two.
Area Rug Styles Buying Guide
Whether you have carpet, tile or wood flooring, adding an area rug or two to your home will protect your floors in high-traffic areas from furniture movement and daily use. Rugs are an instant update to the decor of your living room, dining room or bedroom. Area rugs come in many styles, sizes, materials and weaves so you can find the perfect rug, no matter what your style. At Overstock.com, we divide our rugs into seven styles for your convenience. Our styles are casual, contemporary, country, traditional, transitional, novelty and outdoor. If your home is mainly French country, for example , you'll probably be drawn toward traditional or country style and away from contemporary; keep reading for an explanation of area rug styles according to Overstock.com.
How to Choose the Right Dog Kennel Size
One of the first things you need for a new dog is a quality dog kennel. The right dog kennel can help potty train your puppy, make traveling and vet visits with your dog easier, and give your dog a cozy place to curl up at night or to keep out of mischief while you're away. The wrong size dog kennel, however, can make things uncomfortable for your pooch and a pain for you. As a rule of thumb, kennels and crates should be at least 4 inches taller and longer than your dog and allow him to stand, sit, and turn around easily. You'll also want to make sure there is water and a blanket or towel in there for him. These guidelines can help you find the right fit for your pup when shopping for dog kennels.
Jewelry Box Buying Guide
Stunning diamond earrings, an armful of gold bangles, your first pearls and your beautiful wedding rings: Jewelry has emotional value as well as monetary value, and you want to keep your treasures safe by storing them in a jewelry box. Good jewelry cases are available in many shapes, sizes and materials, and buying jewelry organizers can be frustrating if you are not sure of what you need. Jewelry storage options are an important part of any wardrobe. Jewelry cases protect your jewelry and watches just like dressers and closets protect your clothes and other fashion accessories. Of course, a well-organized closet makes it easier to take care of a clothing wardrobe, and well-organized jewelry storage will do the same for your gold, diamonds and pearls. To choose a good jewelry case, wooden box, jewelry stand or keepsake box, consider the construction, materials and design of the case or box. This jewelry box buying guide is designed to help you sort through the options and make a more informed buying decision.
Best Sunroom Furnishing Ideas
Sunrooms are often some of the most popular areas of any home. Large windows and garden views make sunrooms feel like outdoor retreats while still providing the cover and warmth of indoor rooms. Because sunrooms are connected more to the outdoors than any other room in your home, pick design elements and furniture that work with that theme. Below, you'll find some of the best sunroom furnishing ideas. Seating: One of the most important parts of a sunroom is the seating arrangement. Since you'll likely want to spend many warm nights and bright days in your sunroom, you'll need adequate seating. Sunrooms typically feature either wood furniture or wrought iron seating. When deciding what's right for you, consider the overall look of the room as well as the intended comfort level. Wooden furniture with thick cushions is warmer and more comfortable than metal. A wicker sectional sofa with comfortable cushions will work well with the design of a sunroom. Alternatively, wrought iron benches and chairs give a modern look and feel to a room. Mismatched plush armchairs are a great way to bring both comfort and casual elegance to a sunroom. Tables: When picking out tables for your sunroom, consider how you're going to use the area. Choose a low table that can act as a coffee table for guests to set down their drinks. Tables with glass inserts match sunrooms well because of surrounding glass windows. Sunrooms are a popular place to go during parties and family get-togethers, so consider adding a small dining table and chairs to the room for meals. Design elements: Although sunrooms are indoors, they tie in the nature and wonder of the outdoors. Choose design elements that bring both sun and nature into the room. Wicker planters can hold plants of your choice. Place planters on side tables and on the floor next to entrances to give an inviting impression as guests enter the room. Artwork can change a bland sunroom into something charming and interesting. Look for paintings and sculptures that incorporate colors and themes from the surrounding decor.

Precise and unflappable, Fingal, the literalist, forces D'Agata, the literati, into a hot debate about the nature of art and truth in The Lifespan of a Fact.

'Girls' Viral Video: Beastie Boys Open Letter Says, 'We Tried to Simply Ask ... YOU sued US.'
"We were very impressed by the creativity and the message behind your ad," Mike D and Ad-Rock wrote about the commercial that's now at the center of a copyright fight.
While Goldieblox aims to sell sophisticated, science-based toys for girls, the startup company refuses to take their hit commercial down without a fight. The ad, which features an alternative version of the Beastie Boys' hit "Girls," with new lyrics promoting female empowerment, is said to be the subject of a copyright infringement threat from the band.
According to a lawsuit filed on Thursday by Goldieblox, "the Beastie Boys have now threatened GoldieBlox with copyright infringement. Lawyers for the Beastie Boys claim that the GoldieBlox Girls Parody Video is a copyright infringement, is not a fair use and that GoldieBlox's unauthorized use of the Beastie Boys intellectual property is a 'big problem' that has a 'very significant impact.'" Goldieblox then went to to a California federal court to get declaratory relief that the video does not amount to copyright infringement. Read the complaint.

Now, the Beastie Boys' surviving members Mike D and Ad-Rock have penned an open letter to the startup providing some insight into their side of the dispute.
Like many of the millions of people who have seen your toy commercial "GoldieBlox, Rube Goldberg & the Beastie Boys," we were very impressed by the creativity and the message behind your ad.
We strongly support empowering young girls, breaking down gender stereotypes and igniting a passion for technology and engineering.
As creative as it is, make no mistake, your video is an advertisement that is designed to sell a product, and long ago, we made a conscious decision not to permit our music and/or name to be used in product ads. When we tried to simply ask how and why our song "Girls" had been used in your ad without our permission, YOU sued US.
Additionally, a spokesperson for the Beastie Boys says, "there was no complaint filed, no demand letter -- no demand, for that matter -- when they sued Beastie Boys."

Football: Vairelles knocks the heart out of Celtic
Parkhead Celtic 0 Lyon 1 Lyon win 2-0 on aggregate
Friday 05 November 1999
A 17th-minute goal by Tony Vairelles ensured that there would be little chance of the 54,291 crowd seeing any heroics. In truth, Celtic's hopes had ended when Henrik Larsson broke his leg in France a fortnight ago.
The signs were ominous for Celtic as early as the sixth minute, when Patrice Carteron powered in a header from Philippe Violeau's corner and Jonathan Gould was forced into an acrobatic parry to prevent Lyon doubling their agggregate lead. Eleven minutes later, however, the French side did just that and this time Gould received little credit.
There seemed little threat when Vikash Dhorasoo spread a neat pass out to Vairelles on the right wing. The tall striker, who scored last season against Arsenal for Lens, spotted Gould charging out of his area and delivered a clever lob from a tight angle over the goalkeeper and into the far corner of the net.
Parkhead was stunned into silence and Celtic's players did not come up with a response until the 38th minute. Jackie McNamara's neat work on the right touchline found Mark Viduka, who neatly turned Florent Laville before homing in on goal. However, Viduka blazed a right-foot shot wide of the target.
In the second half Celtic got bogged down as much by frustration as by the heavy pitch. Oliver Tebily was lucky not to be shown a yellow card for provoking a 54th-minute flare-up with several Lyon players. The French side remained the more threatening, with Sonny Anderson almost adding to Celtic's misery in the 68th minute with a driving run and stinging right foot shot which Gould did well to turn wide for a corner. Celtic responded with a burst into the opposite area, but Coupet was alert to the danger and dived bravely at Viduka's feet.
Celtic (4-2-2-2): Gould; McNamara, Stubbs, Tebily, Rieth; Lambert, Burley; Moravcik (Blinker, 81), Berkovic; Viduka, Burchill. Substitutes not used: Kharine (gk), Petta, Mjallby, Wieghorst, Petrov, Brattbakk.
Lyon (4-3-1-2): Coupet; Carteron, Laville, Bak; Blanc (Devaux, 79); Linares, Violeau, Delmotte; Dhorasoo (Malbranque, 64); Anderson (Uras, 88), Vairelles. Substitutes not used: Govoe, Caveglia, Overdi, Hugues.
Referee: G Dardenne (Germany).

Canon have the technology to "blow the competition away"
I am really scared now! I am filing this under the Humor-Rumor section.
After Canon released EOS 5D Mark II 21.1MP Full Frame CMOS Digital SLR Camera, their own engineers are now claiming (I should say whining) that they could do much better if it wasn't for their marketing department. This sounds more like an excuse to me.
Read the whole story here. Thanks to the person who submitted this link, I find it hilarious.
Btw if Nikon is going to release something it will be either tomorrow (Thursday) or Monday next week. If you see all Nikon sites to go down tonight @ midnight, US eastern time, you will know why. I still do not have any solid confirmation on potential announcement. Maybe this time Nikon was able to keep a secret?

Wait, what? Carlos Tevez' community service switched to $4,000 fine after Juventus move
Jul 10, 2013, 2:45 PM EDT
Extenuating circumstances, a long commute, creative issues… call it what you will. But Carlos Tevez has got away with this one.
Tevez was caught driving whilst banned and without insurance and was given another driving ban, along with a hefty 250 hours of community service on April 3.
In order to pay his penance to the UK, the punishment was to work for free in and around Manchester. But with only 28 hours of his community service completed Tevez joined Juventus from City this summer, and he now lives in Turin.
And it seems as if the British legal system looks kindly upon such dilemmas, because today it has been reported that Tevez will pay a $4,000 fine and the whole case will be over.
So for a striker that earned $370,000 a week while playing for Manchester City, is $4,000 really going to make much difference?
Not at all.
His lawyer Gwyn Lewis said: "Events overtook his control and he was sold to Juventus which meant his work permit was no longer valid and he was unable to stay and complete the court order. He did nothing to affect this change."
Look, I'm not lambasting Tevez, we all make mistakes. But when it comes to EPL players earning a reputation as being 'above and beyond' the law, you can see why some of the public look on soccer players disapprovingly. Especially in the UK.
(MORE: Tevez still owes community service, despite Juventus move)
How hard would it have been for Tevez to fly back every other Sunday and put on a soccer clinic for young children in Manchester, to help inspire them to play the game? Even that is special treatment, as people in Carlitos' situation would usually just get to pick up garbage from the side of roads and give their time back to the community that way.
Yet the privilege of playing professional soccer has struck again. There was a loophole in the law and Tevez and his lawyers have found it. Well done.
But after breaking laws time and time again and just being handed a miserly fine, surely it is time for professional soccer players, especially in the EPL, to be held more accountable for their actions?
Tevez, John Terry, Joey Barton, Nile Ranger… the list goes on and on. Those are players who have broken laws and have probably been punished more leniently than your average Joe in the street.
Is it right or wrong? You decide. But after recent reports of players from League One side Crewe being arrested on sexual assault charges, former Newcastle striker Ranger being charged of rape in court and so many other unsavory incidents, this surely has to stop.
Whether they like it or not EPL players and professional soccer players are role models. On and off the field. I think it is about time more players embraced it. Plenty of players do and many give back so much to the community and young children.
But players like Tevez aren't helping anyone out. Except for themselves.

In an increasingly competitive market and wearing a target on its back, Amazon Web Services LLC, the company's cloud arm, went into the hybrid cloud business Wednesday when it announced Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).
Still in limited beta and only in Amazon's Eastern US Availability Zone, VPC is described as a secure and seamless bridge between a user's existing IT infrastructure and the AWS cloud and suggests it can be used for disaster recovery as well as test & dev not to mention applications like, say, oh, e-mail and CRM without anybody being the wiser.
AWS senior VP Andy Jassy says VPC was built it to seamlessly connect a company's existing resources to the AWS cloud "as if it were a part of their own datacenter."
Amazon VPC lets enterprises connect their existing infrastructure to a set of isolated EC2 compute resources – which can be accessed as though they were local – via an industry-standard encrypted IPsec Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection and extend their existing management capabilities such as security services, firewalls and intrusion detection systems to include their AWS resources.
It's talking Linux, Unix and Windows instances.
At the moment Amazon VPC only integrates with EC2; other AWS services will follow.
Amazon CloudWatch can be used for monitoring instances now but Elastic IP addresses, Auto-Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing aren't functional. On the other hand, traffic from Amazon S3, SQS and SimpleDB will route the VPN connection, which Amazon means to make connect directly with the Internet at some point.
It says customers didn't want that exposure just yet
Like other AWS services the widgetry is pay-as-you-go with no long-term contracts, minimum spend or upfront buy-in though it anticipates that the VPN connection will be running all the time and there will be an hourly charge of a nickel an hour for each VPN connection and the data transferred plus the standard charge for each EC2 instance.
Patni Americas VP of solutions Vikram Watave suggests that VPN will push Amazon to offering dedicated hardware and more demanding SLAs in exchange premium pricing. He also thinks that VPN may involve a limited number of configurations.
Patni does development and Q&A testing for VMware and Watave says mere logical partitions may be a problem for some people.
Amazon is currently allowing one VPC per AWS account but can be persuaded to permit more.
Amazon says it only takes a few simple API calls to create an isolated network, specify an IP address range (generally 16-16,384 IPs), partition the IP address space into a maximum of 20 subnets per VPC (though more can be had on request), create a gateway and basically launch EC2 instances into the isolated network.
The user then creates a secure VPN to bridge those AWS resources to his IT infrastructure. Cloud traffic bound for the Internet routes over the VPN where it is examined by the customer's existing security and networking technologies before heading to the public Internet.
Customers can access their resources in the AWS cloud as if they were running in their on-premise infrastructure.
It's not supporting EC2 security groups yet or Amazon DevPay AMIs but customers can launch their own AMIs including Windows AMIs. And the EC2 instances inside the VPC don't have Internet-facing addresses yet.
The widgetry doesn't support all VPNs or purely software VPNs yet. Amazon is open to validate-on-request.
Eli Lilly says it's using it to support its pharmaceuticals research, collaboration and high performance computing, saving it "cumbersome configuration or management hassles." So is Intuit.
Amazon also announced AWS Multi-Factor Authentication (AWS MFA), an optional, reportedly customer-requested layer of security that requires a second piece of information to confirm a user's identity.
With AWS MFA enabled, users must provide a six-digit rotating code from a device in their physical possession in addition to their standard AWS account credentials before they can make any changes to their account settings.
Amazon expects to make MFA available this fall along with new billing features that let companies to link a group of AWS accounts into one bill representing (a potentially eye-opening view of) total AWS account usage.

GERMANY: EU challenges German "environmental" bottling laws
A German packaging regulation, covering imported bottled natural mineral water, is being challenged in the European Court of Justice by the European Commission. The German regulation of 1998 imposes a re-use scheme on importers, obliging them to ship empty packaging back to the country of origin. When bottled mineral water is brought in over long distances this can mean a heavy cost burden for importers.

Conway, SC (SportsNetwork.com) - Keon Moore shot 4-of-5 from beyond the arc en route to a team-high 20 points, as the Winthrop Eagles continued their run through the Big South Tournament with an 80-79 win over the UNC-Asheville Bulldogs in the semifinals at the HTC Center.
Joab Jerome and Keon Johnson contributed 16 points apiece for the Eagles (20-12) who, as the No. 4 seed in the South Division, beat defending conference tournament champion Liberty on Wednesday and then knocked off top- seed High Point in Friday's quarterfinal round. They'll face Coastal Carolina in the Championship Game on Sunday. Larry Brown rounded out Winthrop's double-figure scorers with 10 points to go along with eight rebounds.
Andrew Rowsey led the way with 23 points for UNCA (17-15), which had won four of its previous five outings. Jaron Lane added 22 points to go along with nine boards, while D.J. Cunningham recorded a double-double with 21 points and 11 caroms.
The Eagles shot a blistering 67 percent from the floor in the first half and made 5-of-7 3-pointers. They went into the locker room with a 48-42 halftime advantage after leading by as many as nine late in the opening frame.
The second half featured eight ties and six lead changes, as both teams shot 48 percent from the floor over the final 20 minutes. UNCA had a chance to win it in the final seconds, but Rowsey missed a layup with six ticks left on the clock, and Lane could not get his putback to fall.
The Bulldogs committed fewer turnovers than Winthrop (12-11) and made more 3- pointers (9-6) and more free throws (20-16) for the game. However, the Eagles held an 18-5 edge in bench points and also outscored UNCA in the paint, 40-28.

Comfort, true to size fit, wild style,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Beverly Feldman Women's Greentini Loafer (Apparel)
This is my third purchase of Beverly Feldman flats/loafers. True to size fit, well made enough to accommodate to my feet quickly without rubs, blisters, other discomforts, although I usually wear trouser socks. I favor simple clothing and black rules my closet. This shoe, well, you love it, or you really do not love it. I love the Greentini although I am quite conservative. It's a party on your feet.
