Who Wants One?
Latest News
Filed under:1673
My name is Mike, and when "I'm Beamin'" first came out, I had just started my summer job as a midnight-6 A.M. janitor at a gym. Wasalu's words colored in the lines of my life story (came from a small town but accomplished big things, oppressed by many small minds because of my food allergy), and when I heard this melody, a fire was rekindled in me. I went and applied for jobs for hours before I rode the bus home after my shift every day (I'm a pre-med student), and sure enough, I got a very high-profile job taking care of intensive care unit patients. Lupe basically got me into medical school, and every day that summer, I'd walk out of work, loosen up the tie, put on my shades, and sing out loud..."They said my future was dark / see me now / just look around / I'M BEAMIN'"! Now they care, and I truly have this song to thank for that little extra mental boost that beautiful music can bring.
Currently....."State Run Radio" - I have been around the globe and witnessed firsthand various forms of propaganda that are attempts to brainwash citizens. Anti-West, Anti-Islam, Pro-government, etc. But the song does recognize that the media of the US champions music that is the least disruptive to the established order. Want an example? Compare the Youtube views of "Show Goes On" vs. "Words I Never Said." I understand the latter is a newer video, yet it took the former almost a fraction of the time to reach the 1 mil mark.
Of course it's hard to choose one, but I have always said hip-hop has saved my life is up there as one of the greatest hip-hop songs ever. It brings light back to the real reason for hip-hop. It is a lifestyle, and has helped so many people, it is putting real life and struggles to music. For those people who say hip-hop is dead, I think Lupe disproves that, and this song proves that.
Favorite lupe song is Till I Get There, the song is very inspirational, calming, and it thought me to look at things positively and being real at the same time. it is one of these songs that makes you want to be a better version of yourself, and be hopeful that you will eventually get there, of course I might hit some downs and bumps, but Ill Get There. I hope you release this song as one of you singles Lupe. And am a big fan from a far away land, I hope you come to Abu Dhabi or Dubai one day and perform for us. Am going to be honest with you, I usually dont buy music online, but youre the only one that I bought all three albums, to humbly support you and what you believe in an artistic matter, and bring out all the realness that every one ignores. I hope I get the poster Lupe, so I can brag about it to my friends, and dont forget you have a BIG fan base here!
My favorite song by Lupe Fiasco is Letting Go (Feat. Sarah Green) (Produced by The Future) because of the mixing and effects used on the vocals, his lyrical content, the way he featured Sarah Green because he didn't just have her sing a chorus and then rap 3 verses, he worked her vocals into the song to compliment what he came up with. And the production was awesome. Lupe really wrote something that fit the mood and feeling of the intrumental, from the chorus to each verse and the third verse where he switched his melody it was amazing. So for those reasons, "Letting Go" is my favorite Lupe Fiasco song.
This one for me is easy, while I love the coolest, all black everything (esp. the first verse), and He say she say, for me its "and he gets the girl". It reminds me of the first time I asked a chick out. Me and my big glasses trying to talk to one of the poplar chicks. I had confidence issues and I remember the moment sounding just like the dude in the first verse. The first time I heard this song I laughed like hell, I was like "yo that was me singing the choirs trying to holla at old girl Lupe is crazy for this one. So for me fav song by Lupe.
My all-time favorite Lupe song is Daydreamin'. No matter how many times you hear it, no matter what mood you're in, Daydreamin' will always play to the point to where it seems as if it's the first time you've heard it and that you're having a good day. Plus it's from his first album which makes it more appealing to the fact that its still is better than anything that Lil' Wayne, Drake, or Kid Cudi have put out to this day. FnF UP!
Words I Never Said
It's the song that woke me up. It helped ignite the revolutionary in me and led me to actually get up and do something in my community. I'm actually making a difference, instead of just focusing on my future i'm looking into the future of the world. I'm making a difference and i can honestly say that that song is the reason why i wanted to. The emotion and the passion in that song is incredible. Skylar hypnotizes you with her voice while Lu entraps you with his words.
One of my favourite Lupe songs is Lupe the Killer from Revenge of the Nerds mixtape because the wordplay is beyond crazy in that song and each phrase can be translated into 897624590 different meanings. However, if I had to choose a favourite Lupe song from one of his albums (which is not easy), that would be Put You on Game because it sends out a great message of the ills of society + govt in such a genius way with the use of many dope metaphors :).
My favorite song is daydreamin' its one of my favorite songs lyrically. He's a very visual and story telling artist and this song for me is for when everyone is f'n up and I feel like no one is making any sense. But with that said I will always be a "Kick push coast" girl, that song came out at the perfect time in my life and every song after. {Love Lasers its definitely part of my college collection!!}

On Defense, Neither Super Bowl Team Wins
By Mike Pesca
In football, defense wins championships, or so the saying goes. That hasn't been true recently. In fact, both teams in Sunday's Super Bowl, the Giants and the Patriots, featured less-than-stout defenses through the season. NPR's Mike Pesca has some possible reasons why.

To say we're kind of into sports here would be like saying Larry Bird was kind of good at basketball. You can't go far in Massachusetts without spying someone sporting a Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins, or Patriots logo. We live for singing Sweet Caroline at Fenway Park, Pats playoff games in the snow, and losing our voices at the Garden. This is where the curse was reversed, where the Big Three dominated the courts, and where a 600-lb statue of Bobby Orr reminds us what legends are made of (apparently bronze). Our obsession with sports goes beyond the pros, with the amateur (but totally not amateur) Cape Cod Baseball League; the Head of the Charles, the country's largest regatta; and the epic feats of athleticism and human spirit that brings the world together, the Boston Marathon.

Kennedy, Samardzija in search of consistency
Right-handers coming off strong performances out of All-Star break
After sputtering out of the All-Star break with eight runs and three losses in four games, D-backs manager Kirk Gibson decided he would rather wait for Arizona's bats to make a statement than attempt to come up with one of his own.
"If we quit talking about it, maybe we'll get better. Seriously," Gibson said Tuesday afternoon regarding his club's offensive struggles. "It's just every day we have to answer questions about it. It's hard, and I always try to focus on the positive things. Nobody is more critical of their performance than themselves. It's part of it. They get it. We're going to come out and push through today and we're going to come back and win again tomorrow. That's our mentality. It's a feel.
"If you get your mojo back, you'll be on your way."
Perhaps, then, the D-backs' 10-run, 14-hit outburst in Tuesday night's win over the Cubs will carry them into Wednesday night's matchup at Chase Field. With a close race shaping up atop the National League West, Arizona certainly could use a prolonged stretch of offensive success.
But they would also like to see a more consistent version of Ian Kennedy. The right-hander will take the mound Wednesday looking for his first win since June 1, the last time he faced the Cubs.
Half of Kennedy's eight outings since that win have been quality starts, but he's given up 24 runs in the other four games. Kennedy is coming off a solid performance against the Giants on Friday to begin the second half -- two runs on five hits in six innings -- and hopes to build off that.
"I think that's what separates the best pitchers in the game, is making adjustments, and I did that tonight," he said Friday. "The fastballs were better by the third inning. I was getting ground balls. It allowed me to work better with offspeed pitches."
Opposite Kennedy will be Cubs right-hander Jeff Samardzija, who recovered from his worst start of the year with a gem against the Rockies on Friday, giving up only one run in 7 1/3 innings.
Samardzija scattered four hits and struck out six, commanding his fastball and mixing in a nasty splitter, after entering the break with a nine-run outing against the Angels.
"If you were to ask me all year how I felt about my mechanics, I'd say they were off all year, to tell you the truth, until today," Samardzija said Friday. "So I'm really excited to stop making adjustments and really just work on pitch selection and pitch location."
Cubs: Soriano on the move?
• The Cubs have been busy this month leading up to the July 31 non-waiver Trade Deadline, and several reports Tuesday suggested that Alfonso Soriano could be the next player to leave Chicago.
After reports surfaced that the Yankees were "close" to acquiring Soriano, who broke into the Majors in the Bronx, Cubs officials said those rumors were premature. President of baseball operations Theo Epstein said Tuesday he and general manager Jed Hoyer would meet with Soriano to discuss the possibility of a return to New York along with several other options.
"There's a process to these type of trades, and we're still relatively early in the process," Epstein said. "They're not the first team to call. ... They're the first team to show up in the paper in their home city right away."
• Outfielder David DeJesus could be rejoining the Cubs soon. Out since June 14 with a sprained right shoulder, DeJesus has been playing in Arizona for the Cubs' Rookie League team. Manager Dale Sveum said DeJesus' rehab "is going really well right now."
D-backs: Reynolds set to play catch
• Lefty reliever Matt Reynolds is scheduled to end six weeks of doctor-prescribed inactivity by playing catch Wednesday, the first time he will have thrown since suffering a slight tear in the ulnar collateral ligament of his left elbow on June 11.
Reynolds, who posted a 1.98 ERA in 30 games before hitting the disabled list, will be examined by team physicians Wednesday afternoon and should begin a throwing program that will eventually lead to a Minor League rehab assignment.
"It'll be exciting to get out there and start doing what I'm here to do," said Reynolds, 28, who initially thought he might need Tommy John surgery. "It feels like it's been a whole offseason since I've thrown."
• Right-hander Trevor Cahill threw a bullpen session Tuesday and will start for the Arizona League (Rookie) D-backs on Thursday. If all goes well in that outing, he'll move on to the final step of his rehab, a Minor League assignment.
Worth noting
• The Cubs are 7-45 this season when allowing four or more runs.
• The D-backs are 16-9 against the NL Central this season.

Hi: 11° Lo:0°
A PROJECT to celebrate an important part of Bromsgrove and Droitwich history has been given a £30,000 boost by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
The John Corbett Trail, launched by Stoke Parish Council to mark the life of Salt King John Corbett, features a six-and-a-half-mile signed walk outlining 12 landmarks and points of interest.
The stroll takes participants from the Avoncroft Arts Centre in Stoke Prior to Droitwich Heritage Centre and, among the areas highlighted are the Chateau Impney, Stoke Parish Church, which features a John Corbett-themed stained glass window, Stoke Grange and Vines Park.
The cash will ensure the route is properly signposted and fund leaflets and links to online resources where more of the history can be explored.
The signposts will detail what John Corbett did for the community, local residents and workers during the mid to late 19th Century.
There will also be an audio trail that will feature commentary and salt-workers' memories, adding more voices to the story.
The trail will be maintained by Stoke Parish footpaths officers and Worcestershire County Council.
The official launch of the John Corbett Trail will be on June 13, 2013 - the 196th anniversary of the philanthropist's birthday.
On that day, it is planned that hundreds of people, including schools and walking groups, will embark on the route for the first time.
The application for funding was backed by Bromsgrove MP Sajid Javid who sent in a letter of support, saying it would be 'a great attraction for schools and visitors'.
To celebrate getting the cash, members of Stoke Parish Council met with author and John Corbett historian, Barbara Middlemass, at Avoncroft Arts Centre.
Chairman of Stoke Parish Council, John Ellis, said: "I must extend my thanks to all involved who gave their time and effort into making this project possible, especially Peter MacKenzie-Shaw, the Worcestershire Partnership Funding Manager, who gave us invaluable help in obtaining this grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund."
Worcestershire Partnerships' funding manager, Peter MacKenzie-Shaw, added: "It's been a pleasure working with Stoke Parish Council on this very worthwhile project, which will bring John Corbett and his achievements to life again for generations to come."
John Corbett, who lived from 1817 to 1901, was a major contributor to the area's salt production. He was also MP for Droitwich between 1874 and 1892 and, although he made a fortune for himself, he also worked hard to improve living and working conditions for his employees.
Among Mr Corbett's achievements were the building of the Chateau Impney, which he had created as a gift for his wife.

It's always a lot of fun when bass are smashing topwater lures, and it's even better when they're eating frogs. Thick grass, moss mats, and pads attract and hold lots of bass but they are almost impossible to fish without some kind of weedless bait. Snag Proof Moss Master Frogs are the perfect bait to throw across the top of floating grass and mats into emergent weeds for some rod-ripping, heart-stopping topwater action. Imagine casting your frog back under some over-hanging willows and getting flushed as soon as the bait hits the water, or hopping it along until it reaches a hole in the grass where you pause the frog on the edge, twitching it in the open water until a depth charge goes off. This is summertime fishing at its best!
Check out our selection of rods designed for fishing frogs and rats.

Customer Reviews Back to Top
Comments: This frog isn't as good looking as koppers or spro or others, it hasn't the greatest hook ever, it hasnt the best detailed finishes... But that frog made in the USA is a fish catcher, it's resistant, it's durable, and if you tightly open the hook's gap, your hookup ratio will increase a lot. Try those US made frogs! They work great.
From: Fab: France 8/2/14
Comments: Good looking frog, I really liked how the legs are attached but the hooks I got on mine were extremely dull. I'm going to try the "Bobby's perfect frog." I might have gotten a dud though.
From: Spencer: San Luis Obispo, CA
Comments: Had one of these in chartreuse and didn't use it for years. Threw it this fall and it really helped bring back my confidence in hollow body frogs, as far as being able to catch fish on them. I think this is common in a lot of frogs, but the thing got really torn up from the hooks getting stuck in it, and needs to be retired already. I'll definitely buy some more because they are cheaper than others, and do catch fish.
Comments: I have this frog in chartreuse and im happy that i got 5 strikes in 1 hour, however i am pissed that not one of those fish were hooked... this frog sank within 1 minute of being in the water, it rolled over when i tried to walk the dog and the hooks are not in the right position to get a good hookset... i will not buy from snagproof again im going to try koppers. take my advice dont buy this frog!
From: Bassinincalifornia: Roseville, CA
Comments: Excellent frog works great in just about anything when bass are smashing top water. Very easy to use
Comments: this is a very good frog the Green color works great!

Marlins, Cubs both hope starters can return to form
Much like their respective ball clubs, Cubs right-hander Scott Feldman and Marlins lefty Wade LeBlanc haven't exactly gotten off to the starts they were hoping for in 2013.
Feldman and LeBlanc will each be vying for his first individual win of the season Friday night when they square off at Marlins Park as Miami looks to avenge Thursday's series-opening loss.
For Feldman, it's been a tough opening month not only because of his 0-3 record, but he's also battled back problems that forced him to miss a start prior to his most recent outing. He returned to the mound Sunday against the Brewers, but made a pair of crucial mistakes in a 4-2 loss.
Feldman first misplayed a grounder back to the mound. Later in the same inning, he served up a decisive three-run homer to Ryan Braun. He finished the day allowing four runs (one earned) off three hits and three walks over five innings, but the most important takeaway was his apparent return to full health.
"Everything's good. I'm feeling healthy," Feldman said. "A little minor tightness, but I took some time, and it felt fine my last time out, so it's going to continue to feel fine for the rest of the year, hopefully."
As for LeBlanc, his season started with a pair of hard-luck losses followed by a pair of rocky outings, resulting in an 0-3 record and 6.27 ERA through four starts.
In his first two outings this season, LeBlanc allowed just two earned runs in each while pitching five and six innings, respectively. His offense, however, provided just three combined runs as he was saddled with a pair of losses.
LeBlanc then turned in one of the worst outings of his career on April 15, conceding seven runs on nine hits over just 3 2/3 innings against the Nationals. In his follow-up performance, LeBlanc lasted just four innings Saturday against the Reds, allowing two runs on seven hits while taking a no-decision.
"It was terrible," LeBlanc said after Saturday's outing. "I needed a lot better bounce-back game after the game against the Nationals. I wasn't able to go out there and give this team what we needed -- which was innings and a chance to win."
With Feldman and LeBlanc each looking to put their respective issues behind them Friday night, it won't hurt that each will be facing a struggling offensive unit. The Marlins enter Friday night's contest hitting a Major League-worst .220 as a team, while the Cubs are hitting just .226.
"Well hopefully we don't keep [our] score low," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. "But yeah, I think both teams are obviously kind of doing a little bit of the same thing -- not scoring a lot of runs and playing fairly close games."
Cubs: Stewart trying to find swing at Triple-A
Ian Stewart is seemingly past the strained left quadriceps injury that sidelined him to start the season, but the third baseman is now having a separate problem with Triple-A Iowa.
Stewart, who strained his quad in a Feb. 21 intrasquad game, has struggled mightily at the plate during his rehab stint. He entered Thursday night's game hitting just .083 (2-for-24) with 10 strikeouts through seven games.
"Now it's a matter of him getting his swing together. Now he's pretty much healthy and ready to go," Sveum said. "He's getting to that 20, 30, 40 at-bats like Spring Training, so now it's just a matter of getting him swinging the bat better."
Even if Stewart finds his swing, Sveum said there's no guarantee he will immediately step into a starting role upon his return to the big league club. Luis Valbuena has assumed the majority of starts at third base, tallying a .237 average to go along with four home runs -- including Thursday's game-winner -- and nine RBIs.
"He's got to earn it. He's got to go down there and play well. He's not swinging the bat very well," Sveum said. "Valbuena's one of our most consistent players right now, so it's going to be very hard to move one of our more consistent players out of his spot."
Marlins: Mahoney looking to find power swing
With Joe Mahoney healthy and playing somewhat regularly, Marlins manager Mike Redmond is hoping to soon find out exactly what he has in the rookie first baseman.
Claimed off waivers from the Orioles on Nov. 30, Mahoney brings a powerful left-handed bat to the Marlins order. On Thursday night, Redmond penciled Mahoney into the cleanup spot for the third time this season after the 26-year-old had hit sixth and eighth in the order, respectively, in Tuesday's doubleheader at Minnesota.
"In batting practice, you see the raw power. He's got some pop," Redmond said. "This guy can put it in the seats repeatedly in batting practice. But that's BP. Really, when we evaluate him is going to be in the game and how his at-bats are -- the adjustments as the league adjusts to him. That's the thing we're trying to figure out, what kind of player can this guy be."
Mahoney went 1-for-4 on Thursday and is now hitting .286 in seven games (five starts) this season.
Worth noting
• Marlins outfielder Juan Pierre stole two bases Thursday night to raise his career total to 596, the most among active players.
• LeBlanc has struggled in the first inning this season, allowing eight earned runs and a .522 opponents' batting average (12-for-23) in the opening frame.

Good place for service - Brisbane

Good place for service - BrisbaneHey guys,
I bought a 2nd hand bike not too long ago. It is in desperate need of a decent service, and having being the first bike I owned that is worth paying money for it to be serviced I was wondering where is a good place to get this done ? Its going to be a pretty major service (pretty much everything needs attention). It even needs the bottom bracket taken out so the frame can air out since there is moisture in the frame. I also need advice on how to stop / treat this. Can anyone recommend a place where this can be done well, and also inform me how much this should cost. Ideally I would pay someone (who has the tools and knowledge) and I help them out, since that way I could learn all about it. So if there is any bike mechanics (hence posting in the shed) here that want to show / help me do a major service, I'd be willing to pay. Cheers!
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneI have a flaming distrust of LBSs, I've had 1 service and they didn't even notice the huge crack in the frame I had, and the service was specifically for the frame creaking! It died the next week. In 2 weeks after when I had to replace my frame, I'd learned everything needed to never go back to a LBS.
Also, depending on how often you ride, bicycle maintenance isn't a periodic thing like a car; it's continuous. Also it's much simpler and there's no heavy work involved. I do weekly maintenance on one bike and fortnightly on the other. If you want to learn more here's some resources: Youtube Lifecycle shop maintenance class Sat, September 12, 4:00pm – 4:30pm
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneI've been pretty happy with the services I've gotten from Cycleogical in West End. The mechanics are very good and the cost is reasonable.
That said, I've also gone the route of buying my own tools and DIY. PS. Cycleogical also do maintenance courses. Last edited by Zynster on Fri Aug 28, 2009 11:20 am, edited 1 time in total.

Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneRiver City Cycles are good. So are Epic. I don't know if they will let you participate in the process; I suspect that's unlikely. Worth asking though. As Waynohh pointed out, LifeCycle conduct bike maintenance classes. It may be that other bike shops do too.
Hope this helps. Max One of the best things about bicycle commuting is that it can mitigate the displeasure of having to go to work. - BikeSnobNYC

Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneI remember seeing a story on Brisbane Extra a while ago about a mobile bicycle mechanic in Brisbane that comes to you. May let you get hands on if he's doing it in your front yard?? Not too many LBS's would let you in the back I would think.
Try Google - Google is your friend...
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneThere's a couple mobile bike mechanics. The son of one of the guys I work with runs one called "The Bike Whisperer". I've never used his services, so don't know if he's any good or not.

Yep, a double thumbs up for Yellow Jersey from me. Very good service on all levels.

Re: Good place for service - Brisbane
Ooookaaaay then...
Re: Good place for service - Brisbane
"My Bike Shop" is the name of the shop.
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneAh right. I clicked on the website link and got very confused.
If it's the one I'm thinking of then the guys in there are bloody champions. Best service in town!
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneI live walking distance from My Bike Shop in Mitchelton. They're good people, and know their stuff for the most part. I did have one bad experience with their workshop staff's technical abilities, though (they fitted brake pads so they were half off the rim). It put me off them for a long time. That said, last year I needed some work done in a super-hurry and they really came to the party. Overall, they're good.
My preferred LBS are Epic Cycles in Baroona Rd, Paddington or River City Cycles in Yeronga. Epic generally have a much larger range of bikes and accessories and cater more to my type of riding. River City are great too, but have a smaller range. Both have done good work on my bikes, and I like the staff. Max.

Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneTom Wallace Cycles at Lutwyche have continually exceeded my expectations.
Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneMobile bicycle mechanic is the way to go. No fuss they come and pick up and deliver for a major job or they could do it right at your home of office for that minor adjustment. Check out their prices you be surprise . North side try the " The bike Whisperer " South side try the " The bicycle repairman " they both have web sites and experience.
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneMobile mechanic in brisbane, Back on track mobile bicycle mechanics, Does road, MTB, commuter bikes etc.
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneI used Rod Nichols at the old Riders Cyclery at Morningside years ago, the guys there little Elton & Elliott (Rod's son) were very very good, since they've been gone I've tried various places, from Redcliffe, Strathpine, Michelton, I've not really found anywhere that I'm super confident with.
I've had some dealings recently with the guys at Tom Wallace's, they seem fairly upfront, I recently went looking for a quill adapter Lifecycle was the only place I found that had one on hand (they're pretty rare these days) & did me a fair deal on a stem. I got shafted by during the week from a shop on the inner west area, saw me coming on a set of tyres, I won't be going back there. I have a MTB that I do need to take somewhere soonish, I'd love to know if anybody knows what or where Rod Nichols went after Riders as I'd go back to him at a drop of a hat. I basically fumble through most of the stuff I need to do, but would be interested in finding somewhere to take bikes for quality service without them stealing your wallet.
Re: Good place for service - Brisbane For MTB I solely use http://www.fortheriders.com.au/ The owner and all the shop guys race - so they know what they are on about. The new shop is nice too. Have had fox fork services done there no probs.
Re: Good place for service - Brisbane
ah, so now i know where mitchelton is up wardell st and chuck a lefty onto samford road. nice one, max
Re: Good place for service - BrisbaneHi All,
If you're on the Westside, check out a new place at 17 Miles Rocks Road called Cycle Skills Australia, they are starting to do maintenance classes on the weekends. They've only just opened, but the mechanic fixed my gear skipping problems in a matter of minutes, he was also nice when I asked stupid questions. Cheers, Anniegray

Best formal chic top
I simply love it, this looks elegant and yet sexy and classy top for work or good parties. I love the texture and the color.
August 19, 2013
Instantly Chic!
I will start this review by saying I am NOT a ruffles girl. I decided to give this one a shot when it went on sale. I was so pleasantly surprised! The cut on this shirt is elegant and true to The Limited sizing. I tried both the ivory/navy combo as well as the plum/navy combo, and I feel like while the plum combo is nice, the ivory combo really pops! This will be great with a pencil skirt or skinny pants.
July 10, 2013
Great material, interesting ruffle and exposed gold zipper in the back. I love it with a navy pencil skirt. No idea why they show it here with that strange (ugly) pattern skirt.
Love it! Size L fit me great: 175, 5'10
July 8, 2013
Love this top....
I have the navy top and I love it! Nice fabric choice, feels much more expensive than the price I paid. I like the gold zipper in the back. I wore with navy pinstripe pants for work and know this would look great with a skirt too.
June 21, 2013
Love it
Love the top. Originally I ordered a size S, I am not super petite but it was a bit big so i had to exchange it for the XS, but I love it. its very elegant and simple.
June 14, 2013
Sophisticated for Work or Play
Very high quality fabric, colors are beautiful. Overall I am very satisfied, I receive tons of compliments when I wear it. Runs a little small.
June 14, 2013
So beautiful!
I have been wanting this top for some time and am in love. It is so well made and looks beautiful on. Fits true to size. I love this line!
June 11, 2013
Great blouse

I'm not too thrilled that my 11.04 isn't updated anymore with simple stuff like Firefox, etc. Of course they have to draw the line somewhere.
On my 12.04 machine I have no intention of upgrading beyond that since each release seems to get crazier and crazier.
Sometimes I feel like there are too many changes too frequently. It's hard to settle in as a new upheaval is just around the corner.
It would be better if they just kept third-party packages like Firefox, LibreOffice, video drivers, etc. updated and then maybe updated the Ubuntu-specific stuff and kernel once a year. I think.


text: Special guests from the Mid-Atlantic Center for the Performing Arts were welcome as the openers at Summerstage for the Martha Graham Dance Company on July 24th 2013. The MACPA dance trio, clad in white, performed a piece called "If", choreographed by Maeghan McHale, that was somewhat brief, but given the importance of the 90-year-old MGDC, that was understandable. The interesting performances scheduled by the MGDC were (in order) "Acts of Light" from 1981, "Lamentation Variations" (from the 1930 work) and "Chronicle" from 1936. The red costumes worn by the dancers in the first piece fueled the "lovers" desires, and you could see the passion on their faces. On the flip side, the costumes for the "Chronicle" piece evoked militaristic themes in their stark black or white scheme and there were a few moments at the beginning when I thought of Stormtroopers (from Star War, though the color distribution was flipped). Given that the piece is described as "Graham's stirring response to the rise of fascism in 1936 and to the unmatched power of the collective will", its fitting that I thought of the (fictional) empire. Overall it was a nice evening and a nice way to catch something different, one of the great things Summerstage promises.

Look great! I ordered the white one. They are truly cordless both top-down and bottom-up. This product was just as pictured and very easy to install.These shaded have clean lines and look great! We would definitely buy again. The product service was very good too. I had two pieces of the top-down handles broken. I contact them according to the sheet packed with the product. They just sent me the replacement right way. Be careful, when you install the pulling/pushing handles, it is easy to break.

great cellular shades for the price. I had already purchased the ivory color cellular shades and now I ordered the White Top down / Bottom Up white cellular shades as well. Just wanted to clarify couple more detail with the different between the Ivory color and the White color, which I now have both. This will also explains why some review and Q&A were confusing about some comments that being some shade are corded and some were cordless. Both are Top down / Bottom Up, but the Ivory ones are completely cordless, top and bottom, but the White ones are cordless on the bottom ( so you can simply lift it or pull it down lightly with NO cord.), to lower the top down, simply use the cord on the top to do so, so the White ones is half cordless and half cord. No more confusion. The other thing is, when I shop around these shades in the other stores, all the ones I seen, the outside part of the shade that face the street after you install them, they usually come all white, so it's uniform. But the Ivory color are ivory on both sides, and of course the white are also white on both sides. So make sure they won't mind ivory on color facing the neighbor, or the look of it with the color siding of your home. I love the White ones as much as the Ivory ones. Hope this helps.

easy peasy Fits window well. I wanted to install these inside the frame, not outside, but the directions said that 1.75" of window frame was required. I only have 1" available. I was still able to install these inside the frame without any difficulty. I am thrilled. These are easy to install and look lovely and operate well. I can't address their durability, I've only had mine installed for a few days and I don't open and close them much at all. I did however buy three more for the rest of my windows. The look is very nice, it affords me privacy, but plenty of light still filters in the room. The top of the shade isn't the prettiest, but shades never really are. These are no uglier than the top of a venetian blind or other shade. I am considering some kind of decorative window box or valence, though I don't think it's entirely necessary. All in all, I'm very happy.

I love these shades but... These were exactly what I was looking for. I love the top down feature. I doubt they could withstand much abuse. Have extra screws on hand when installing--3 screws snapped in half while being screwed into the wood!

nice product looking for top down shades is difficult especially on a budget. instead of paying 100 + per window via bali or levelor, I tried these. really easy to install, look great and sturdy. they aren't double celled, so may not hold out cold quite as well, but given that they are about 75 % cheaper than what I would pay elsewhere, these are a great buy.

The big deal was that Canonical supported ONE binary driver per Ubuntu release. With "-update" its a bit better but only for binary blobs. (However it never worked on my AMD 5720M so I used ADM website to fetch newest).
Now what we get are EXPERIMENTAL drivers (not certified in MS-speak), via Canonical **supported** update mechanism.
That is even better as now MESA stuff will see same level of attention (for Intel at least).
So everything will be doable from Ubuntu Software Center. And since you can always tap into updating mechanism on Linux, it mean that games may actually update gpu drivers when needed!
dont get me wrong I dont think thats a very important thing that happens here, its a small change, I am not totaly against it, go with it if you are happy.
But its a bit strange that linux must have BETTER closedsource-driver-update-support than windows has. So if you dont use linux because of the idiolegy (freedom) behind it, why would you be pissed because driver installation is the same process it is under windows?
So at least its no feature that you could say, wähh look here linux sucks and windows is better, because its not. So the thing they do is to generate a reason why linux is better than windows, for people who use linux only for the technical advancement, but than again why would you not use windows because it supports much more games. So canonical do that maybe to support a time in some years where maybe not only a few valve games come over steam to linux but where many nvidia users switch to linux and games become availible too.
I see that mixed, they make a eco system, that will fully support closedsource drivers, so this companys will never release sourcecode or specs. What would make more sense would be to pay 2-20 grafics-developers instead of this to make the radeon driver fast enough to be ready for newer games (they dont need to have 100% of the speed of the blobs) if they are at 50-80% it would be fast enough. And more importantly they should support all opengl stuff in the first place.
So I am not extremely pissed or something, but on the other side, I think they invest again in the wrong direction, if fedora would become the same quality of ubuntu (I mean with easy system upgrades without reinstall (the recommand way)). And support the same usb-sound-devices that ubuntu does support with an older kernel, I would switch away. Not because of that driver thing here, that was other points that let the barrel overun for me. Is that a saying that americans understand? ^^
This is a step forward........... as long as they make sure that driver updates does not cause stuff to break. In my experience, whenever I update my video drivers (even as part of the package manager), stuff like xorg tends to break horribly, and sometimes the desktop effects stop working as well as they did before.
I think it's because newer versions of video drivers tend to expect newer versions of xorg sometimes, or sometimes xorg only supports certain versions of video drivers.
Of course, I expect this to be much less of an issue with opensource drivers.
Considering my experience with gpu driver on ubuntu and windows, if the driver works, I stick with it. I mean stick with it for YEARS past when its been replaced by a new stable.
For people whom need the newer version becuase they are missing support or a feature the explosion of linux games requires, this sounds like a good idea for those in need. I like it, good job working with Valve, Ubuntu! This will improve many users experiences with gpu drivers.
To talks like this:
Audio is here:
Nvidia is delivering what their users need, and ubuntu is now finally realizing it. When will certain developers of open source graphics understand this too?
thats one of the problems with closed source drivers. People tend to blame opensource developers for not supporting a closed source driver, while thats just impossible.... thats the problem people say linux is bad because the driver support is bad... nobody from hell would say, windows is bad because the driver xy is bad, then anybody would say this company which produced this crap hardware or driver is crap.
So the reasonable point when installing a driver from nvidia and something goes wrong would be, ok nvidia sucks like hell, never ever will I buy from this c%%%ckscuckers any hardware... but yes linux is the wonderland from alice where reality is the oposite from itself...

Halos, Wilson eye sweep against Blue Jays, Buehrle
Veteran left-handers matched up for finale at Angel Stadium
The Blue Jays will look to avoid a four-game sweep at the hands of the Angels on Sunday afternoon at Angel Stadium.
To do so, the club will need a solid outing from its starter, something that has been hard to come by this season.
Toronto has had a starter last fewer than five innings 23 times in 2013, and that has been a big factor against the Angels this series.
"That's definitely a lot," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "The manager has some say in that, but still. A lot of those games, it's not like you fall behind by a couple of runs and the guy stays in there. We had trouble getting outs in a lot of those when it's on the verge of turning into a laugher.
"You have to give [the starter] the opportunity, but you look at guys, they'll give up two or three hits and give up a run or two but they can get an out. If you think you have a chance to win a game, sometimes you have to go for it, but a lot depends on what you have down in that 'pen."
They'll turn to the club's most consistent starter Sunday, left-hander Mark Buehrle, who will enter the contest with a scoreless-innings streak of 20.
"Every time he takes the mound, he gives us a chance," Gibbons said. "We don't always win them, but he gives us a good effort, he eats up innings, he does everything right. He's had a tremendous career and he's just building on that."
He'll be opposed by C.J. Wilson, whose string of success took a turn for the worse against the Rangers on Tuesday.
The Angels left-hander came into that outing with a 1.25 ERA over his previous five outings -- all quality starts -- but then Wilson gave up six runs in four innings, allowing 11 hits and three walks.
If the Halos can emerge victorious Sunday, it'll be their first series sweep since June 28-30 when they took three from the Astros.
Angels: Frieri regains form after difficult week
• Ernesto Frieri closed out Friday's game and appears to have no loss of confidence after blowing two saves to the Rangers earlier in the week.
"I knew that it was going to happen," Frieri said. "I knew I was going to go back to the Ernie that everybody knows. I just need to keep doing what I did last night, making pitches. Whenever I do that, I'm going to get people out."
"He got his confidence back, which is nice," catcher Chris Iannetta added. "It shows a lot of his character and what he's made of, to go through what he went through, then come back and nail it down for us."
The 28-year-old had given up eight earned runs over his previous 2 2/3 innings but struck out the side around a double by Brett Lawrie on Friday night. In the process, he regained his bulldog mentality.
"The first hitter I was trying to focus on just hitting my spot, not missing it," Frieri said. "And then I was like, 'Wait, wait this is not me, stop thinking so much and let it go.' After that, you could see I was a little more aggressive, and that's me."
Blue Jays: Happ likely to return Wednesday
• J.A. Happ is finally close to retaking a Major League mound.
Happ is likely to return for the Blue Jays on Wednesday, exactly three months after his season was derailed due to a comeback liner that struck him in the head.
The left-hander is scheduled to throw three days from now, lining up perfectly with what would have been Todd Redmond's next start, but he was optioned to the Minors after Friday's short outing.
"It will probably be Happ," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said Saturday. "He's solid, he's healthy. He threw a lot of pitches [Friday night], but that's what he does."
Happ threw 95 pitches for Triple-A Buffalo on Friday night, allowing three runs over 4 2/3 innings with six strikeouts, and is stretched out to take a normal turn in the rotation.
Over five rehab starts, Happ is 0-2 with a 4.22 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP in 21 1/3 innings.
Worth noting
• The Blue Jays haven't won a season series against the Angels since 2007.
• Mike Trout has reached base in 34 consecutive games, including Saturday's performance when he went 1-for-2 with a walk and a pair of runs scored. He is the Angels' first player to have two on-base streaks of at least 33 games in a season.
• Wilson is a 2-3 with a 3.52 ERA in 15 career games (five starts) against the Blue Jays.
