Congrats guys, you did an amazing job here!
That's not Bender, that's his evil twin......oh, wait, that's the GOOD twin.
Congrats Robbie and Kasey! I love it when good art wins.
Congrats for a super shirt!
Parody of the highest calibre. This is the Police Squad of t-shirts. Congrats Kasey and Robbie!
I hope that's the transport mode of the future. Who couldn't handle catching up on sleep in the arms of your own robot before starting work...on another planet. 'A' grade concept and execution from a designing dream team.
Dammit, woot! First Poison and now this? I'm on a tight budget here, you know.
Bender has his "I'm-going-to-molest-the-crap-out-of-her" face on - it's seriously that creepy
j5 wrote:wrong robot.
Yes, but Robbie did appear in an episode of "Lost in Space".
Oh man. I'm in the middle of a Futurama rewatch, too. This shirt is going to give that a whole new feel.
Woot should just have an "I want to automatically purchase any shirt from this artist" option, seeing how I bought Robbie's last 4 derby prints too. (Anyone have an extra Tofu shirt in MXL, ML, or M2X they want to trade/sell? I could use a second or third copy, seeing how often I'm wearing the one I already have ...)
I wish Woot sold posters in addition to t-shirts, because I would love a poster of this! The t-shirt sizes are always so awkward for me.

This shirt is just amazing. This has to be one of the more quality shirts with a reference to a TV Show. On a side note, seriously is there a ban on Futurama in Wyoming or something?
nice shirt, Woot is making me buy too many lately =/
Glad this printed! Purchased! Now Propzilla needs to be next.
I am absolutely thrilled this got printed! Beautiful work and absolutely hilarious. I hope John DiMaggio finds this.
Funny, I've seen many good shirts rejected for being too close to copywrited images. How'd this one get through?? Would have been better if lela was naked lol.

Nope, it's the real Bender. It can't be his twin on the shirt as he's missing the goatee...
Don't stop.
Loved the write-up! Woot writers, you collectively rock! It almost made me want to buy the shirt. I find it funny, but my son thought it was a little too PG-13 for him ... and I will not attempt to put a Futurama theme on MY middle-aged chest ^o.^

Agreed - I'd love a print of this, especially if it went all out with the full movie poster trimmings.
So I got mine in yesterday and the print is way bigger than the how it is displayed on the site. Usually Woot does a good job with size ratios. I really like the design but I hate shirts with designs that use the whole shirt. I'll probably wear this one a couple times then put it on Tee Trade.

CANTON Anthony J. Peterkin Sr. on Thursday persuaded St. Lawrence County Court Judge Jerome J. Richards to let him represent himself against drug charges laid last year in Ogdensburg.
The Watertown man was less successful in attempts to argue that he should be released on his own recognizance due to a case of mistaken identity.
Mr. Peterkin, 49, was indicted on charges of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance after he allegedly sold cocaine in Ogdensburg on March 21, 2012.
When he appeared before Judge Richards for arraignment Thursday, Mr. Peterkin, who is not an attorney, said he wished to represent himself. The judge advised Mr. Peterkin of his right to counsel, and questioned him about his experience with legal issues.
Mr. Peterkin told the judge he previously represented himself at four other trials, resulting in not-guilty verdicts in three of them.
After advising Mr. Peterkin that any mistakes would be treated the same as if they were made by an attorney, the judge granted his request.
In February 2012, a federal judge dismissed a civil rights lawsuit by Mr. Peterkin claiming he was maliciously prosecuted by Jefferson Countys district attorney and an acting County Court judge. Previous Times reports show he also has acted as his own attorney in Jefferson County Court and won an acquittal on a felony assault charge in 2002.
Assistant District Attorney Joshua HaberkornHalm asked that Mr. Peterkin be held on appropriate bail before trial, given a criminal history of 18 convictions, including two felonies.
Mr. Peterkin replied that he should be released on his own recognizance, claiming he couldnt have committed the crime because he was in the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building on unrelated charges at the time.
Perhaps there was another black man they got their cocaine from, because it was certainly not me, Mr. Peterkin said.
Mr. HaberkornHalm contacted Jefferson County officials, and told the judge they said Mr. Peterkin was not in custody there on March 21, 2012, only entering the facility on March 30.
Mr. Peterkin insisted he was jailed at the time, and said Mr. HaberkornHalm should perform a more thorough check of booking records.
The judge sent Mr. Peterkin to the St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, in lieu of $2,500 cash or $5,000 bond, but also instructed Mr. HaberkornHalm to seek Jefferson Countys booking records for all of March 20120 and provide a copy to Mr. Peterkin.

Peacock eyes series victory vs. defending champions
Buchholz aims to enter All-Star break on winning note against Astros
Brad Peacock will take the ball Sunday as the Astros look to enter the All-Star break with a series win against the Red Sox.
The announcement that Peacock would get the start in the rubber match wasn't made until Saturday, when Brett Oberholtzer made a spot start in place of Collin McHugh, who was sent to the 15-day disabled list with a right middle finger nail avulsion.
Peacock beat the Rangers his last time out, allowing six hits and two runs on Tuesday in Texas as he improved to 3-4 with a 3.89 ERA in 13 starts. Peacock didn't walk a batter for only the second time this season as a starter.
"Peacock did a good job attacking the strike zone," Astros manager Bo Porter said after the outing.
Right-hander Clay Buchholz, who has struggled this season, will start for Boston. Buchholz is 3-5 with a 6.11 ERA in 11 starts. Monday against the White Sox, Buchholz gave up four runs on five hits in seven innings while striking out seven. He's 1-0 in one career start against the Astros.
"Young and aggressive, a team that you got to definitely mix your pitches with and don't get in too many predictable fastball counts, because that's what they like to hit," Buchholz said of Houston's offense. "I like them to swing. I rely on movement for the most part, and movement induces mishits. That's sort of my gig. I've got to execute on my side of the ball and hopefully not give up too many balls that are squared up. Stay away from the long ball."
Astros: Fields in a groove
Josh Fields has struck out 11 of the past 18 batters he's faced, including seven in a row at one point (over two outings), which was one shy of the franchise record of eight consecutive strikeouts.
"He's throwing strikes, he's attacking the zone," Porter said. "When you attack the zone and you have a put-away breaking ball like he has, he's not just attacking the bottom of the strike zone, he elevates his fastball and that makes his breaking ball and his changeup that much better because of the fact he's attacking both the top and bottom of the strike zone."
Red Sox: Adjustments paying off for Bradley
Jackie Bradley Jr. is enjoying a turnaround at the plate as of late.
His batting average hovered around .200 for May and June before beginning to creep back up in July.
"He's made some tangible adjustments to his setup in the box," manager John Farrell said. "He's using a more open setup that's letting him see some pitches better, and he's done a lot of early work to create and maintain a more even swing path. I think we're seeing less swing and miss, we're seeing strikeouts diminish and we're seeing more consistent contact."
Bradley is hitting .392 in July with five strikeouts in his 28 at-bats after going 2-for-4 on Friday and Saturday. His season average has crept up to .227 after starting the month at .208. He has hit safely in seven of eight games in July.
"I think it's his recognition that he was being exploited in certain parts of the strike zone," Farrell said. "Those adjustments were required."
Worth noting
• Brock Holt has played all 442 innings of Boston's 47 games since being installed as its leadoff hitter on May 23.
• After going deep twice Friday, Chris Carter's eight home runs in July are the most in the Major Leagues. He now has three multihomer games this month.

The trend toward small, easily concealed main speakers has fueled an increase in the use of subwoofers. Compact main speakers, and in-wall or in-ceiling speakers, are often bass-shy. Large, costly floor-standing speakers often have plenty of bass, but they may be cosmetically unacceptable. Also, the speaker room placement that results in the best stereo imaging is almost never the best placement area for reproducing deep bass.
A subwoofer is a dedicated low-frequency speaker cabinet, usually self-amplified, that fills in the deep, rich bass that is missing from most main speakers. Subwoofers are specialized, and don't reproduce midrange or high frequencies. They are designed to reproduce the deepest notes in the musical spectrum, and low frequency energy provided by home theater soundtracks. Most main speakers are passive (unamplified). But most subwoofers include a power amplifier, creating the raw power needed to cleanly generate deep bass, without robbing excessive amplifier power from your receiver. Subwoofers usually handle frequencies below 150 Hz or so.
A quality subwoofer not only reproduces the thrilling deep bass notes with authority. Its presence in the system also allows the receiver / amplifier to reproduce mid-bass and mid-range notes more cleanly. The burden of reproducing deep bass, the most difficult frequencies to reproduce, is lifted. Your amplifier and main speakers work more efficiently, with less distortion. All kinds of instruments, including voices, can be heard more clearly. Why should you add at least one great subwoofer to your system?
1. Deep bass adds the emotion, the physical feeling of presence and excitement, to a good music or movie performance! One reason that inexpensive speakers sound "just OK" is that they cannot reproduce deep bass very well.
2. Subwoofers help solve problems in speaker set-up and placement. It's difficult to set the main speakers where they are able to provide realistic imaging, and set them in the best place for bass. A separate subwoofer can be placed where the bass sounds best, with the main speakers set up to provide the best image. In-wall and in-ceiling speakers can be placed where they work best cosmetically, without concern for their bass reproducing ability, when the system has at least one great subwoofer.
3. High-quality subwoofers are engineered to generate the massive cone movement required by low bass reproduction. Main speaker drivers are often taxed to their limits, and beyond, by the demands of deep bass, and audible distortion results. A good subwoofer is specifically designed to generate deep bass. Whether you like jazz, classical, pop or rock, a good system can be made better with a good subwoofer.
Regardless of your musical preference or taste in movies, a good subwoofer can make a good listening experience great. There are two main types of subwoofers:
In-room subwoofers are still the most popular choice. If a consumer doesn't need to conceal the subwoofer by hiding it in the wall, ceiling or floor, in-room subwoofers work well. The cost vs. performance ratio is very high.
Built in subwoofers are preferred by many design-conscious consumers. These subs cost a little more to build and engineer properly. But hidden subwoofers are very popular in homes where space and the look of the interior are primary concerns.
What is a Subwoofer, and Why do I Need One?

Essential electronics for tailgating
A circuitous path, involving England, New York, rural Michigan, Indiana, and lots of parts in between brought Matthew Freeman to Charlottesville, where he's been writing about mobile audio/video for Crutchfield off and on since early 2000. He fosters an eclectic taste in film, and is fond of a wide range of music. A native of Albuquerque, New Mexico, he found his way to the University of Notre Dame, where, in an act of charity unsurpassed in the history of Western civilization, he was given a B.A. in English.

But experience has taught me that the right combination of electronic equipment can elevate your party from "memorable" to "classic." What follows are all the things — be they circuit-loaded or cheese-covered — that make a tailgating weekend great. (You can click on the images to enlarge them).
Getting there
For fanatics like me, driving long distances to home games (my drive is twelve hours each way) is totally worth it. I really love going to away games, too — I get to explore new towns, check out new stadiums, and meet new fans. Here are a few tips for getting there before kickoff and keeping team spirit alive.
GPS guidance
Nothing makes for a successful tailgate like actually making it to your destination, and GPS is your friend there. These days, GPS is about way more than getting from point A to point B; lots of systems not only give directions, they do things like call out street names, show 3D renderings of buildings and landmarks (even stadiums), and find nearby gas stations and restaurants. Many also work with traffic info services in metro areas that keep you up to date on road conditions ahead, so a nav piece can serve you well even if you know the roads like the back of your hand. They come both as in-dash devices (which usually play DVDs and control an iPod®, too) and portable pieces that are easy to take in and out of the car.
Video to go
Few things get football fans as fired up as watching classic games on DVD. So here's my favorite scenario: we're heading west on I-80 with two classmates in back wearing headphones, watching the game that marked the first time we ever stormed the field — a last-second, one-point squeaker in the snow. (Meanwhile, another classmate and I are up front, with the iPod plugged into the receiver and cranking out a road mix that's nothing but pure nostalgia.) Twelve hours just fly by. If your car already has headrest monitors, the folks in back are all set. But if you're thinking of adding a new backseat video system, there are two options I recommend choosing from: overhead or headrest.
An overhead monitor is the way to go if you have the room, and don't mind complex installation work (or are willing to go to a pro). Quite a few include built-in DVD players and audio/video inputs for other sources. If that won't work, an easier option is a headrest system — typically a pair of headrests with monitors built in. You pop your old headrests out, then slide the new headrests into place (you'll have to wire them for power, too). Headrest monitors also often feature built-in DVD players, plus inputs if you want to send them picture and sound from a DVD receiver. Most types of backseat systems work with headphones, so the front-seaters don't have to listen to what's playing on DVD (by law, they're not allowed to watch while the vehicle's in motion, of course).
Bluetooth® compatibility
Having a Bluetooth system in the car might seem like a minor thing to some, but I can't emphasize enough just how useful it is. We all know how much of a hassle it can be to try to wrangle different groups of people who are scattered all over town. Especially while driving. But having Bluetooth capability in the car can spare everyone some serious pain.
Many receivers these days will pair with Bluetooth phones to deliver hands-free calling through the stereo system. What this means is that when the phone, rings, you just tap a button on the receiver to answer. You hear callers' voices over the car speakers, and they can hear you thanks to a mic that you mount unobtrusively in the car. With Bluetooth, it's so much easier to make plans and coordinated schedules, then get on with enjoying the weekend.
Time to tailgate
There's no doubt about it — the right food and the right beverages, and plenty of them, are essential for getting a great tailgate party off the ground. But when it comes to keeping the party going, there's actually more to it than food and beer. Here are a few technologies that make a real difference.
Part of the fun of tailgating is catching the action from other games, especially if your game doesn't start until late afternoon or evening. In years past, you either had to show up in your motor home or run a noisy generator in order to power a TV big enough for the whole group to crowd around. LCD TVs, however, have changed the rules of the game.
That's because they're remarkably lightweight and power-efficient, which makes them ideal for the tailgating environment. They're easy to transport, easy to set up (especially in the back of an SUV), and, best of all, easy for everyone to see. Just remember to bring an antenna along to pick up local over-the-air stations — the unpowered tabletop kind you use at home should do the trick.
You'll need a power source
Of course, if you don't have power, any TV you bring with you is just wasting space where you could have fit an extra cooler. That's where a power inverter comes in. Inverters convert the DC (direct current) power a car puts out into AC (alternating current) power, the kind used by home electronics. They're an essential part of tailgating, given that most vehicles lack an AC-style plug anywhere.
Don't forget the tunes...
Call me old school, but I say the right mix of music is a critical element in any successful tailgate. I tend to stick with boomboxes as my musical source, especially ones that have iPod docks or will play MP3s on CDs — they let me make super-long playlists without having to lug around lots of discs. The less I have to keep track of, the better. And using a boombox instead of the car stereo reduces strain on the car battery.
...or the spread
Way back in our college days, food at a tailgater was an afterthought; it's easy to not worry about what to eat when you've got a dining hall close at hand. These days, though, we like to make sure we have plenty of great stuff to eat as we get ready for the game. The spread can vary from game to game, often depending on who's there and who we're playing. My favorite contribution is my stuffed green chile cheeseburgers (I'm originally from New Mexico, where green chile is a dietary staple). They're fantastic, in that they look like regular hamburgers, but when you take a bite, you hit a delicious vein of chile and melted cheese. They're actually quite simple to make:
- hamburger patties
- shredded cheese (cheddar, typically)
- diced green chiles (in some specialty grocery stores, you can actually find diced green chiles from Hatch, New Mexico; just look for the yellow cans)
- Standard hamburger toppings (lettuce, tomato, mustard, etc.)
The recipe:
- Shape a standard-sized hamburger patty into a shallow cone
- In the cone, place a small spoonful of diced green chile and a generous pinch of cheese
- Pinch the top of the burger closed, then lightly flatten the patty. Make sure the patty is well sealed, so that no cheese or chile can be seen; you don't want them "leaking" as you grill them.
- Grill to desired doneness
- Slide onto bun, top as desired, and enjoy!
Heading home
Sundays are the saddest days for the college football road-tripper. We're all exhausted from the very fine work we did the day before, we're six full days away from our next game, and we're facing the prospect of a long drive home. What to do?
Surfing the web
Yes, it's possible these days to turn a car into a wireless Internet hotspot. There are now mobile routers that let you stay connected just about everywhere you go. At first, even I thought this idea seemed like overkill, but I quickly warmed to having access to scores and postgame press conferences. (And it doesn't hurt to be able to Tweet about our team's victories.) It's also a great way to kill time while we wait for the parking lots to clear out and traffic to die down a bit.
Space out with satellite radio
I've come to depend on satellite radio to make the Sunday drive bearable. SIRIUS broadcasts the entire NFL — every game, every week, from coast to coast. Gone are the days of hunting for the clearest AM signal we can find as we pass from town to town, hoping that it's broadcasting a game. Instead, we get to enjoy games from around the league. It satisfies our football cravings, as we head home to rest up — in anticipation of doing it all again the next week.

The real-time research platform that advances medicine
PatientsLikeMe Research
Patients are increasingly becoming engaged in research, whether as citizen scientists, research partners in the development of studies, or as engaged participants in clinical trials. In this video Q&A, Vice President of Innovation Paul Wicks. PhD, outlines the new era of participant-led research including the potential ethical issues, scientific challenges, and innovative new platforms such as the Open Research Exchange.
Treatment burden is the workload imposed by healthcare on patients and the effect it has on quality of life. The Treatment Burden Questionnaire (TBQ) aims to assess treatment burden in different condition and treatment contexts. We used PatientsLikeMe's Open Research Exchange to evaluate the validity and reliability of an English version of the TBQ, a scale that was originally developed in French.
The system of medical discovery does not revolve around patients as unique individuals with preferences, needs, and desires. Rather it revolves around scientific scrutiny, the needs of the sponsor, and the desires for regulatory approval. The patient is only a subject. Is it any wonder, then, that some patients have rejected the current medical paradigm and sought to find their own path?
More Research
In his keynote address at the Drug Information Association's (DIA's) 50th annual meeting, Co-Founder and Chairman Jamie Heywood discussed how patients can become partners with industry. The company was also honored with the 2014 DIA President's Award for Outstanding Achievement in World Health, an award Jamie accepted on behalf of PatientsLikeMe members and staff.
Presenting at TEDxSpringfield, PatientsLikeMe's Rishi Bhalerao argues the path to innovation in healthcare begins with patients, because they're the ones who know best what it's like to live with a condition.
Co-founder and President Benjamin Heywood was a speaker at The Genomes Environments Traits (GET) Conference, an event for people working at the frontiers of human biology.
As the first nurse to present at TEDMED, PatientsLikeMe VP for Advocacy, Policy and Patient Safety, Sally Okun, calls out the shortfalls in the language of health and introduces the idea of a patient lexicon.
Jamie Heywood recently spoke about innovative solutions to healthcare at the 2013 Nuffield Trust Health Policy Summit in London. The conference is organized by the Nuffield Trust, an independent source of evidence-based research and policy analysis for improving health care in the UK. In his speech, Jamie called for a revolution in measurement. "We should measure the severity of each condition and its impact on the patient..."
Last November, we attended TEDx Cambridge, a one-day event featuring 30+ speakers and lots of Ideas Worth Spreading (TED's mission). The theme for this particular gathering was "Thrive." How can we as individuals – and communities – not just survive but thrive?
In September of 2011, Jamie Heywood spoke at the 10th Dialogue on Science at the Academia Engelberg Foundation on our modern understanding of personalized medicine from genetics through to phenotype, from mice to humans, and from Hippocrates to Google.
Lift! is a European conference that brings together innovators in design, healthcare, and social architecture.
PatientsLikeMe R&D Director Paul Wicks, presenting at TEDx Berkshires, walks through the medical decision process faced by patients and clinicians trying to manage their illness in a world lacking in data.

My Take on Financial Events
Excellent method of creating articles, this is often found through this short article
Bruce Krasting
Westchester, NY
United States
I worked on Wall Street for twenty five years. This blog is my take on the financial issues of the day. I was an FX trader during the early days of the 'snake' and the EMS. Derivatives on currencies were new then. I was part of that. That was with Citi. Later I worked for Drexel and got to understand a bit about balance sheet structure and corporate bonds from Mike Milken. I was involved with a Macro hedge fund later. That worked out all right, but it is not an easy road. There was one tough week and I thought, "Maybe I should do something else for a year or two." That was fifteen years ago. I love the markets. How they weave together. For twenty five years I woke up thinking, "What am I going to do today to make some money in the market". I don't do that any longer. But I miss it.

Book | 2015 Leading Sustainable Change: An Organizational Perspective Rebecca Henderson, Ranjay Gulati and Michael Tushman The business case for acting sustainably is becoming increasingly compelling—reducing our global footprint to sustainable levels is the defining issue of our times, and it is one that can only be addressed with the active participation of the private sector. However, persuading well-established organizations to act in new ways is never easy. This book is designed to support business leaders and organizational scholars who are grappling with this challenge by pulling together leading-edge insights from some of the world's best researchers as to how organizational change in general—and sustainable change in particular—can be most effectively managed. The book begins by laying out the economic case for change, while subsequent chapters describe how leaders at firms such as Du Pont, IBM, and Cemex have transformed their organizations, exploring issues such as the role of the senior team and the ways in which firms shift their identities, build innovative cultures and processes, and begin to change the world around them. Business leaders will find the book a source of both powerful examples and immediately actionable ideas, while scholars will be deeply intrigued by the insights that emerge from the cross cutting exploration of one of the toughest challenges our society has ever faced.

Chapter | Leading Sustainable Change: An Organizational Perspective | 2015 From Periphery to Core: A Process Model for Embracing Sustainability Luciana Silvestri and Ranjay Gulati There is a growing call for business enterprises to adopt sustainability principles and practices, yet many established organizations continue to struggle in their quest to embrace them. In this chapter, we analyze how organizations that relegate sustainability to the periphery and those that incorporate it into their core differ in their approaches to identity (how they think about sustainability), strategy (how they plan for sustainability), and design (how they act toward sustainability). Advocating a holistic approach to these three organizational elements, we present a process model that shows, along four specific stages, how an established organization can bring sustainability into its core. We illustrate the model through the experience of the Ford Motor Company. Citation:Silvestri, Luciana, and Ranjay Gulati. "From Periphery to Core: A Process Model for Embracing Sustainability."

Case | HBS Case Collection | November 2014 Micromax: Scaling the Largest Indian Mobile Handset Company Ranjay Gulati, Rachna Tahilyani and Alicia DeSantola It is January 2014 and Rahul Sharma, cofounder of Micromax Informatics (Micromax), the largest Indian mobile handset company, is preparing for an emergency conference call with his private equity investors. In the last six years, Micromax had grown its annual product revenues from $54M to over $1B. Unfortunately, it was difficult for the founding team to keep up with Micromax's rapid growth, triggering a series of missteps in 2010 that brought the company close to catastrophe. In response, investors had convinced Sharma and his cofounders to hire their first outside CEO, Deepak Mehrotra, and several senior professionals. With the founders working alongside the new "professionals," frequent overlaps and sometimes run-ins occurred. Now, both Mehrotra and the head of their smartphone division had resigned. Sharma evaluates their options: Would the founders need to reconsider their involvement in the company they created? Or was there still a middle ground where both founders and professionals could coexist in the business?

Brown Swiss and Holstein conclude sale of remarqued Foster Mothers
Brown Swiss and Holstein conclude sale of remarqued Foster Mothers
Proceeds went to support each breed's youth organization.
by Amanda Smith, Hoard's Dairyman Associate Editor
When Hoard's Dairyman commissioned artist Bonnie Mohr, Glencoe, Minn., to create a new edition to its Foster Mothers of the Human Race paintings, the result was astounding. Debuting in June 2010 to celebrate the magazine's 125th anniversary, the image launched a new tradition as the Hoard's Dairyman staff work to make the cover on each June issue a cut above the rest.
In recognition of the special role the dairy cow plays in our lives, Hoard's Dairyman donated two limited edition prints to each of the seven dairy breed associations. Both prints were remarqued and signed by artist Bonnie Mohr. There are only two, of 1,250 limited-edition prints, that are remarqued with a pencil etching of each respective breed's cow. A remarqued print typically brings twice or triple the value of what would be obtained for limited-edition prints. Each breed auctioned off one of these remarqued prints as a fund-raising effort with proceeds going toward the breed's youth programs.
Starting in the summer of 2010, the prints began going to auction at the breeds' conventions or a related event. With the conclusion of the 2012 convention season and the sale of the Brown Swiss and Holstein remarques, all of these limited-edition prints have been sold.
The Holstein remarque brought $750. The lucky bidders were Phil and Annie Trowbridge of Ghent, N.Y. At the Brown Swiss Youth Fun Auction, Jacob Roedl of Edgewood, Ill., bid $1,100 for the honor to own this rare print.
Throughout the intervening years since the print was debuted, two of the seven sold for over $2,000. The Guernsey print sold for $2,100, while Jersey topped the sales at $2,800. For prints selling over $1,000, Milking Shorthorn and Brown Swiss helped raise the number to four, selling for $1,000 and $1,100, respectively. In total, the remarqued prints helped raise $8,825 to support youth programming across the seven breeds.

Ten Tips for Fitness Walking
Medical Author: Melissa Conrad St?ppler, MD
Medical Editor: Dennis Lee, MD
Walking is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to stay physically fit. It's also a versatile form of exercisethat can be done indoors (many malls and public buildings offer walking routes) or outdoors, and you can tailor the intensity of your exercise based upon your individual abilities and goals. Whether you'd like to begin walking for exercise or if you're already established in the habit, these tips can help you get the most from your workout.
- Before starting a walking program, check with your doctor if you have a chronic medical condition or if you have had a recent injury. But don't assume that you aren't able to start exercise walking if you do have medical issues. Exercise walking can help control disease progression and relieve symptoms in people with cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and many people with arthritis or other musculoskeletal problems will experience symptom relief from a medically-supervised exercise walking routine.
- Invest in good shoes. Since these are the only expense and equipment you'll need, pay attention to the fit and quality of your shoes. Shoes should fit when you try them on without any areas of pinching or pressure that could cause blisters or calluses. Wear the type of socks you'll wear when walking when you purchase your shoes, and remember that you'll likely need a larger-sized shoe than you normally wear if you plan to wear thick socks. Shoes should have good arch support and a slightly elevated heel with stiff material to support the heel when walking and prevent wobbling.
- Always warm up by walking at a slow or normal walking pace for five minutes before picking up the tempo of your workout.

Lower gas prices are displayed at this North Little Rock, Ark., station. Prices have been falling, but the trend could change with renewed conflict in the Middle East. / Danny Johnston, AP
Rising Middle East tensions are boosting crude oil prices again, but are unlikely to impact U.S. gasoline prices for now, experts say.
As Israel massed tanks and troops along the Gaza Strip and Palestinian militants launched hundreds of missile strikes deep into the country, crude oil futures spiked 1.3% to nearly $87 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange Friday. Behind the third straight price jump: fears that a broadening of the conflict could cause supply disruptions from oil-producing countries in the region, which supply about 20% of the world's oil.
Last winter, crude oil spiked to about $100 a barrel when Iran threatened to cut off supplies. "The elephant does seem to be back in the room,'' says Patrick DeHaan, senior analyst for price tracker gasbuddy.com.
Offsetting a potential jump in gas prices: lower demand and ample supplies, fueled in part by rising U.S. production U.S. crude oil inventories are up about 11% from year-ago levels.
Gas prices have been dropping sharply in the past month, with Saturday's national average at $3.42 a gallon, down 32 cents from $3.74 a month ago, according to the Oil Price Information Service. Prices have dropped even more sharply in California, where refinery and supply woes that drove prices to $5 in some markets have plummeted nearly 80 cents the past month to $3.80 a gallon.
Rising production and slow global economic growth have helped keep prices down, muting a major war-related spike in crude oil prices. Last week, the International Energy Agency cut its global oil-demand forecast through year's end by nearly 300,000 a day, based on the weak European economy and residual effects of Super storm Sandy in the U.S.
"Unless there are signs of further destabilization in the region, rising prices is kind of a non-story,'' DeHann says. "I don't see a dramatic bump in prices, at least for now."

Daily OCD: 7/5/11 | |
Written by Mike Baehr | Filed under Wilfred Santiago, Walt Kelly, Shimura Takako, reviews, Peanuts, Mome, Mickey Mouse, manga, Linda Medley, Krazy Kat, Joe Daly, Jason, George Herriman, Floyd Gottfredson, Disney, Daily OCD, Charles M Schulz, Best of 2011, Basil Wolverton, 21 | 5 Jul 2011 7:11 PM |
Today's Online Commentary & Diversions:
• List: School Library Journal names Linda Medley's Castle Waiting Vol. 2 one of "39 Graphic Novels That Kids Can't Resist": "Both volumes of Castle Waiting are vivid and enchanting, as any good fairy tale should be. Handsomely bound and printed on rich, creamy paper, the most important element — the story — is charming, filled with slowly building plots and compelling characters, and the slow pace means readers can spend the summer hours with some good company.... With clean black-and-white art and impeccable pacing, Castle Waiting remains a favorite for older kids and younger teens."
• List: Rick Klaw's "Top Ten of the Half Year '11" at The Geek Curmudgeon includes Joe Daly's Dungeon Quest at #9 ("Littered with violence, inappropriate sexual innuendos, misguided bravado and infused with hilarity, Dungeon Quest... promises a uniquely entertaining graphic novel experience.") and 21: The Story of Roberto Clemente by Wilfred Santiago at #3 ("In this emotionally moving biography, the Puerto Rican Wilfred Santiago magnificently chronicles the often tragic life of this icon.... Santiago expertly traverses Clemente's tribulations, losses, and success with ease and skill. His portrayal of the baseball games rank among the finest ever attempted in this medium. Under the masterful hands of Santiago, 21 evolves into far more than just a biography of a sports figure. It showcases a life worth emulating.")
• Profile: "...21: The Story of Roberto Clemente... is drawn with a jagged whimsy that gets at the sudden sharpness of a baseball game's action, the frenzy that comes from out of nowhere to temporarily replace the long, slow stretches of waiting, scratching, spitting and eyeballing opponents that are endemic to the sport. The result is a captivating work that reflects the complexity of Clemente (1934-1972), a dedicated humanitarian as well as an uncommonly gifted athlete.... 'I knew the culture he came from, because I came from the same place,' [Wilfred] Santiago says. 'And there was a mythic aspect to him that was part of the story I wanted to tell. Comic books bring a different kind of narrative that's not possible in any other medium — not books, not movies.'" – Julia Keller, Chicago Tribune
• Review: "A little boy is mistaken for his older sister and is bewildered by the feeling that this stirs in him. Thus begins the story of the Wandering Son, a daring fairy-tale about two unusual children in the time before the riot of puberty and their struggles with who they are and who they want to be.... The artwork in Wandering Son is appealing and sensitive.... Wandering Son mercifully isn't a political screed and its characters, equally mercifully, are not pressured into making political points out of their inner lives.... They are allowed under that protective charm 'kawaii' to explore their feelings and identity and are treated with the utmost compassion and dignity by their author. That makes Wandering Son a most compelling fantasy... Wandering Son chooses for the most part to dwell on the possibility of choice, of self-knowledge and the love of a friend who knows your secret." – Michael Arthur, The Hooded Utilitarian
• Review: At his High-Low blog, Rob Clough re-posts his Sequart review of the first 5 volumes of Mome: "I can't help thinking of Mome as the comics equivalent of a baseball farm league club. You know you're good if you're invited by the major league club to come on, but there's an expectation of getting better, of being productive, of working hard in order to become great. And the creators in this book seem to range across a wide variety of ages and levels of experience, much like a minor league baseball team. Some are raw rookies, others have been laboring in obscurity for years and are just now getting an opportunity at the big time."
• Interview: The Daily Cross Hatch's Brian Heater continues his conversation with Mome editor Eric Reynolds: "I don't know if there's an official reason. I just felt like the time had come. It had been over five years. I'm really happy with it. I'm proud of what we did. But at the same time, there are always compromises you make along the way. I felt I'd already run my course with it. I could have kept it going. I sort of set myself up with a template that was fairly easy to do, three or four times a year."
• Review: "Excellent quality reproduction of the cartoons, interesting texts...; a supreme book treatment by a 'bibliophile publisher': something that convinces even the most recalcitrant Disney collectors to buy something that they might already have seen and have read the contents of the first volume in multiple dressings and in multiple languages, and possess it in different forms." – Luca Boschi, Il Sole 24 Ore (translated from Italian)
• Plug: "Mickey Mouse 'Race to Death Valley' has the first MM strips from 1930-32 by Floyd Gottfredson, considered the finest of all the MM artists and much collected. Several complete episodes and a wonderful 68-page section devoted to essays, early Mickey artwork and special features. I'm eager to sit down and digest it all myself." – Bud Plant
• Review: "Schulz's jokes are fine; his characters are likable and instantly recognizable; and Peanuts is never dull. But, in these years, it settled for being a consistently entertaining standard comic strip rather than digging any more deeply than that into the sources of human sadness and discomfort." – Andrew Wheeler, The Antick Musings of G.B.H. Hornswoggler, Gent.
• Plug: "The very lengthily named Pogo: The Complete Syndicated Comic Strips Volume 1 'Through the Wild Blue Wonder' is offered by Fantagraphics ... I'm convinced that this will be the best version it can be of Walt Kelly's game-changing political and cultural satire.... I'm looking forward to finally getting a chance to see this classic for myself. I'm sure, given Fanta's high production values, it'll be worth the wait." – Johanna Draper Carlson, Comics Worth Reading
• Plugs: At the Westfield Comics Blog, K.C. Carlson takes a close look at our listings in the current issue of Previews (including Pogo, Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse Vol. 2, The Art of Joe Kubert and more)
• Plugs: The latest "Comics College" reader's guide from Chris Mautner at Robot 6 delves into George Herriman and Krazy Kat: "If you... want to dig deeper, the next logical choice is Fantagraphics' lovely collection of Sunday strips, dubbed Krazy & Ignatz.... If all those books seem like too much shopping for you, Fantagraphics has collected much of the same material in two hardcover volumes, with a presumed third one coming along the way sometime in the near future.... Fantagraphics has announced their intention to collect the daily Krazy Kat strips as well, but that's down the line a bit. In the meantime, there are really only two ways to get a solid sampling of the daily strip, one of which is The Kat Who Walked in Beauty, an oversize tome that pairs together strips from the 1910s and 1920s, as well as some other Krazy-related ephemera."
• Plug: "Fantagraphics Books publishes one of my all-time favorites; Jason, short for John Arne Saerterøy. Jason's animal people inhabit satirical but celebratory genre pieces. In about 50 pages, Jason's The Last Musketeer tells the story of Athos, the last depressed musketeer in the 21st century. A meteor hits Paris, and Martians start invading. Before too long, Athos stows away to Mars to save the Martian princess in order to save Earth from total annihilation." – Victoria Elliott, The Daily Texan
• Profile: Mary Ann Albright of The Columbian talks with Monte Wolverton (who's been instrumental in helping us publish works by his late father Basil) on his political cartooning career (via The Daily Cartoonist)

I LOVE this dress! I bought mine in black knowing it would be perfect for many occasions The dress is very flattering. The material drapes well and is heavier than I thought it would be (which is nice). If you have a large chest make sure to buy the next size up. The dress does not look ill-fitting for those of us who are large on top, but not so everywhere else. Great dress.
Love this dress. Received it Chrisrmass eve. Bought 1 size larger then I normally wear, thanks to previous reviews knew that the dress would be too small if ordered in my size. Fits nicely except for bust which was a bit too large for me so have to have it fitted - and also I regret not having bought the red one. Happy with the service received and with the dress.
This is a lovely dress and figure flattering. I originally purchased it planning to wear it to a wedding but I decided on something shorter and more flirty for the wedding. I did pair this dress with a short black sweater and wore it to work and received several compliments. This dress can easily be worn to a party with the addition of some great earings and bracklet/bangles. I would skip a necklace since the ruffled colar is dressy enough. Fabric is substantial and comfortable. I highly recommend this dress.
love it! too much boob exposed but I sewed a few stiches and its perfect!
I think this is a really classy dress, with a nice fit around the bust. The ruffle at the back of the neck stands a little to high and stiff, but I'm going to chalk it up to "flair!"
Although this dress ran a little small, it was very cute ! I have it to a friend and she loved it !
I look forward to wearing his dress to a wedding. It is well constructed, fits well, and is comfortable. Very nice addition to my wardrobe which I expect to get a lot of use of.
I am 5'7" and weigh 140 pounds. The 8 fit perfectly! It's a high quality dress, and it looks amazing on! The cut of the dress is one that will flatter all body types! It is very versatile! I will be getting a lot of use out of this! And you can't beat the price!!!!
Flatter dress, runs slightly large. Material feels cheap. Probably would not purchase again.
This is a perfect fit for me. The color is vibrant and can't wait for an occasion to wear it!

AngelaHawaiiHairDark BrownColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairIron Doesn't Last, I've Had ThreeI've LOVEd this flat iron. I wish more flat irons would have add ons that allow you to comb while flat-ironing your hair. I've purchased three Maxi-Glides over the years. They never-ever last! One side always shorts out and I end up with a Maxi-Glide flat iron that is useless. I loved my Maxi-glide so much that once it was broken I held it together with a velcro tie so that both sides of the iron would stay hot. I soon realized this was futile and every Maxi-Glide I purchased was just poorly made. I've moved on to other brands. I just wish Maxi-Glide would get it right. They could have a great product if they figured out how to make a better, more stable flat iron that lasts.posted May 24, 2012Link to this post

EricaMississippiHairDark BrownDry HairThick or Coarse HairIt Straightens A Little Too WellI absolutely loveD my Maxiglide flat iron. I've had it since 2008. I wrote a review about it with 5 stars but I must take back 4. My hair is so damaged it is unreal. I am so upset. What makes this such a shock is that I don't flat iron my hair every week, not even once a month. Maybe like 6 times a year. My hair has thinned out so much. I am not sure why this happened or what I did wrong. I can't begin to tell you. All I ask is that you do be careful with this product. It does what it is suppose to do, but the end results are not as flattering. I am so hurt to have to send my Maxiglide to the graveyard. And it still works (it leaks water but it still works).posted Apr 20, 2011Link to this post
Cindy674HairDark BrownColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairI Want Another One Now Please!I have used for the past 5 years and in need another one. I want the one with the FLAT plate, not the pins as I never used those on my old one. I could not live a day without this as it is THE BEST. I am worried that if mine goes, I do not know what I will do,. Why CHANGE something that is perfect as long as it has the FLAT plate included. Where can I buy a new one with the FLAT plate? Thank you.posted Apr 10, 2011Link to this post
Brandi F.HairBlackCurly HairMy Maxiglide....love It!!!For the first time my hair is straight, glossy, and stays that way for days even through humidity and rain. I love, love, my maxiglide!!!! If you follow the directions and use their products or even a good heat protective serum your hair will stay straight and glossy for days. Since I have been using the maxiglide no more frizzies. I have thick, wavy/curly latino hair and with this product I now have straight glossy hair all the time. I am going to buy a back-up for traveling. Also my hair routine has been cut at least a half hour! I can't imagine being without my Maxiglide!

The only down side to this flat iron is that it does damage your hair.posted Jan 5, 2011Link to this post
Sandra E.So-soSo I bought this hair straightener, & it works great ! It really does. It makes your look nice and straight. BUUUUT it only lasts for like the first 6 months or so. I bought one & yea i loved it but it kept turning off out of no where so i called customer service & they said I can mail it back & receive a new one. So I did. I paid 10 bucks for shipping and got a new one. But then, it happened again; it kept turning off!! & if i mail it back I would basically be paying 100 dollars for this because of shipping. I am not going to mail it back. Why should I if its going to happen and again and again. NOT WORTH THE MONEY.posted Nov 23, 2010Link to this post
JessicaHairDark BrownColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairIt's Just OkI enjoy my maxiglide, I got my first one in 2005, it went out within 3 years. I bought another one and one year later same thing happened it stopped heating. I'm using my mom's and Im hoping her's doesn't break on me. I'm in the market to purchase a 3rd hair straightener, this time I've decide to buy a GHD. Its also on the heavy side, which can get tiring. Its an ok product, nothing too exciting.posted Nov 12, 2010Link to this post

Second Maxi Glide I've Owned, Same Problem.i would have given this all 5 stars but.... this is the second maxi glide straightener i have owned and i have the same issue. the straightener will shut off if the cord at the base is turned ever so slightly. then i have to fiddle with it and move it around until it turns on again, i thought the swivel cord would prevent this but it hasn't. i have only had this straightener for about a year so im disappointed. but when it did work it was great, got super hot and the steam feature was great.posted Oct 1, 2010Link to this post
ClaireFabulous ProductI have fine, wavy hair that frizzes and I absolutely LOVE this thing. If you follow the directions, and detangle your hair first, and then section it, you will have pin straight hair like a model. Anyone who thinks it's bad had to have just tried to comb through a tangled mess. Shame on you. This flat iron is the best as is the Beyond Straight gel.posted Sep 27, 2010Link to this post

Reviews (13)
"Great Waterer"
I have had 3 of these waterers for over 5 years for my horses and I have never had a problem with any of them. I have well water at 50 psi. I have them mounted on post with plastic pipe and hose connections. Couldn't ask for a better product.
"Sturdy and easy to clean"
We owned/operated a 16 run I/O boarding facility for almost 15 yrs in GA and used this product on all runs. Shape of bowl makes them fast & easy to flush out. Our biggest problem, well really only problem was that some of the dogs wanted to dig in them and would alter the float handle. We plumbed them with pvc with a shut off valve for ea side of kennel building so 8 waterers were on same valve.. Highly recommend these.
"parts not durable"
"The waterer works fine, though it would be better with a bottom plug as I've seen on other brands to make cleaning easier. My main complaint is that I've only had the waterer one year, and in a mostly protected place, and still the cheap, plastic connection piece that connects the waterer to the hose is brittle and broken. The store where I bought it does not have replacements and said that people come in looking for them all the time. I can't find replacement parts online either. I have contacted the manufacturer in hopes they will help me. Otherwise, wasted money. ""Made in the USA"" should mean better quality than this."
"Heavy Duty!"
Great, heavy duty product that's had over 5 years of constant use with minimal problems. All the problems I've had were caused by weather extremes. New valve is relatively inexpensive and one doesn't have to replace the whole assembly.
"llamas and alpacas"
Had these for years for llamas and alpacas. They work very well for these animals even for the babies. Ours don't leak (water pressure about 40 psi).
"Ran up my water bill"
I have replaced the washer so many times and they are impossible to just buy alone to have on hand locally, they make you buy the entire float. The washer never lasts long at all. Switching to another brand!
"Get water pressure regulator"
These kept leaking, until I placed my travel trailer's water pressure regulator on the faucet supplying the waterer. The leaking stopped. You can get a water pressure regulator at a trailer supply store such as CampingWorld.com
"might fix your problem"
Iam a plumber that installes and repairs auto. waters. check your water pressure. These devices will leak if the inlet pressure is uncontroled.
"Lots of Trouble"
I have had several of these waterers. The first ones were galvanized but eventually they developed holes and leaked from the bowl. We are constantly replacing the rubber grommets and eventually we replaced all the inner workings to get it to stop leaking. It would work for a little while and then start right back up leaking. Eventually we replaced them with the coated waterers hoping for better luck but we are still having problems. We can't figure out why they keep leaking
"Great Waterers"
I have a boarding stable with 30 of the galvanized waterers in use. They're great! Seldom have any problems which is great because water problems are what I don't have time for everyday. We're on a well and occasionally the inlet will get a little something stuck in it. Usually picking up a little piece of hay and clearing the hole is all it takes. These have been up and running 1 1/2 years. I'd highly recommend them.
"Good Waterer, Poor Assumptions"
I bought this waterer locally and the instructions were not included. It appeared to attach directly to a hose, but this is not the case. You will need an adapter for that to happen. I've had no problems with it since I got it set up correctly... in fact, this is now the preferred waterer of ALL the animals on the farm. We will be adding a dozen more over the next few years.
"Works Great!"
Works great, as long as you follow instructions. Water pressure 10-70 PSI. If your water is city supplied need pressure reducer or will have problems with the rubber stoppers failing. If on a well not usually a problem as wells are not over 70 PSI.
"Cheap plastic"
I have NEVER had one of those toilet plunger variety waterers that does not leak from almost day one and get progressively worse. Before long it is no longer possible to adjust the plunger and it is impossible to create a water seal. Please sell a quality waterer. Any good nose push, so long as the valve is brass, is FAR superior.

29.04.2012 /
Luis Salom and Sandro Cortese salvaged second and third place on KTM-driven Moto3 bikes in Jerez on Sunday reversing the places they achieved in the first GP in Qatar in a great battle for the minor places in the final stages of the race.
In what quickly evolved into a race of attrition on a track with residual water from earlier rain on the Spanish circuit, half the field – 17 riders of 34 starters crashed out during the 23-lap race.
While talented young Italian teenager Romano Fenati ran away with the lead, the final laps were characterized by a three-way battle for the minor places with Luis Salom of the RW Racing GP team on the KALEX-KTM bike coming off best after the group encountered back markers in the final corners. Sandro Cortese of the Red Bull KTM Ajo Factory team finally settled for third in a battle where the German rider and Salom deployed their superior race experience to outfox Spanish teenager Alex Rins who finished fourth.
The race was declared dry at the start and riders went out on the circuit in slick tires but remaining wet patches caused multiple crashes that halved the field. Danny Kent was the first of the KTM riders to be eliminated when he was taken down in a three-rider crash in the opening lap. Next to go down was Niklas Ajo TT Motions Event Racing on the KTM Moto3 bike. Then it was Salom's RW Racing GP teammate Brad Binder of South Africa followed by Red Bull KTM Ajo's Arthur Sissis. The Australian got caught in the same wet patch as Kent when he high sided when he was right up the front in fourth place. Sissis also suffered multiple contusions to his chest and hand.
In the multi-rider crash drama that ensued Cortese realized that it was time to learn from his experience. "I knew I just had to wait," he said. "I settled down to fight for second. This year it is important to take as many podiums as possible and to be consistent." Cortese was third in the season's opener in Qatar.
Aki Ajo, team boss of the Red Bull KTM Ajo factory team was hopeful after the race that his two injured riders would be able to compete next weekend in the GP of Portugal in Estoril. "Sissis has some pain in his ribs, hip and small finger and Kent has hurt his ankle. Danny will have another x-ray tomorrow but it looks like its nothing too serious," he said.
Other riders on KTM-driven bikes to finish the race were Alberto Moncayo and Hector Faubel in seventh and ninth on the Aspar team's KALEX-KTM and Zulfahmi Khairuddin of Malaysia of Team KTM AirAsia-SIC Ajo on the KTM Moto3 bike in tenth.
Salom and Cortese are third and fourth in the championship standings after just two GPs with 33 and 32 points respectively.
