I've been a Warriors fan since they traded Chris Webber. Can you imagine how that's like....
This one could be ugly..
The Hulk is a Warriors fan.
PAcers win 80 percent of their home games this year.
Gotta make sure we eat our breakfast for this one...
From "we believe", to "we belong", to "we gon beatcho ass!"
Without Bogut, this team:
- Beat the NBA's best early season team (MIA) at home - Beat the NBA's other best early season team (OKC) - Snapped their 16 game losing streak to the Spurs - Became the ONLY team this year to beat the Clippers 3 times (including 3 of the Clipps first 11 losses) - Collected a 6-1 road trip to begin the year, the best trip in 40 years - Demolished the 16-year drought without an all-star. This team gets up for big games. I have a decent feeling about this one. Indiana'll be off since Saturday. Klay and Steph can't stay cold forever - one of them's gotta heat up soon, DLee is a given (I especially love watching him play his chocolate doppelganger, David West), Jarrett Jack is turning the friggin lights out the last 5 games, and Coach Jackson always seems to find a way to motivate this squad when it counts. Indiana is another giant. Best defensive team in the league, wins 80% of their home games. This would be a nice notch in this season's belt. I'm betting another nail-biter, Warriors go down by 12 early, but rally to win by 3 in the 4th, Jarrett Jack pulls another Superman act, DLee goes for 20 and 15. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
Despite Curry being cold he has put up good efficiency numbers. Mainly because of his great free throw shooting. Same with Klay as well. Hopefully they heat up against the NBA's best defensive team.
Also, Harrison waking up (once again) would help as well. It's not good when he takes 5 shots and makes 3, and Klay makes 4 or 5 out of 15. When game develops like that, Harrison needs to take the ball to the rim more, not just wait in the corner. That's what I see as a bad thing with him. Klay, Steph and other guys will continue shooting when they are cold, which is not a great thing mostly, and sometimes they will get into rhythm. And, you have Harrison on the other hand, who won't take more shots even when he is shooting way over 50%. I don't know, though, if it's planned like that, or is he respecting his teammates too much, or is not confident in self that much. He has all of the tools, he needs to realize that, cause I'm thinking that his head is stopping him from unleashing Black Falcon's true might. OK, I'm getting carried away here. lol
Just, when your two best shooters are cold, you need someone else to take over, not let them keep shooting and missing. Make more space for them by slashing inside. |

This is one tough opponent for warriors - tall, athletic and quick.
No chance in a Milky Way galaxy we win this if we play Indiana pace - that is slow-half court-grind it out game. If Indiana dictates the pace we will be reduced to watching lots of contested jumpers from long two and three point land - we won't be getting inside much against their defense. The only chance is to create match-ups that would force Indiana to take a riskier path to match and play uptempo, even that being the case I would put our chances not higher than 30 percent. A fairly equal contest and I would be more than satisfied. "i wish i was a little bit taller" skee lo

Couldn't agree more. They can play any type of way, and they are also known as a good defensive team. They can play dirty, kill you inside, outside. Its going to take alot of grit to get pass this team. Liking Fetus's activity so far. |

text: What Kihachiro Onitsuka didn't know in 1949, when he started sewing shoes in his living room, was that he was making a whole lot more than a shoe. He was giving his native Kobe, Japan, optimism and purpose. You see, Mr. Onitsuka believe that an active lifestyle was key to a strong mind, a strong heart and a strong community. So with some tough rubber and cotton laces, he set out to make sure "a good pair of athletic shoes sat at every door stoop." A philosophy he soon shared with the rest of the world. In 1977, the Onitsuka Co. Ltd. grew to become ASICS. ASICS is an acronym derived from Anima Sana In Corpore Sano, a Latin phrase meaning; "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." It's an ancient ideal on which Mr. Onitsuka lived his life and built a company. And build he did. From family rooms to locker rooms, ASICS is now recognized as a leader in athletic shoes and apparel – always on the crux of something new, something comfier, something to keep you warmer, something to keep you drier and everything to keep you moving. It's been a fast, fun road. (read more)

1 | Early distribution, no known exception (in most cases, under age 59 ½) |
2 | Early distribution, exception applies (under age 59 ½) |
3 | Disability |
4 | Death – regardless of the age of the employee/taxpayer to indicate to a decedent's beneficiary, including an estate or trust. Also used for death benefit payments made by an employer but not made as part of a pension, profit-sharing, or retirement plan. |
5 | Prohibited Transaction – This generally means the account is no longer an IRA. |
6 | Section 1035 exchange (a tax-free exchange of life insurance, annuity, qualified long-term care insurance, or endowment contracts) |

Black Bottle, available in Florida, is a blend containing whisky from all of the Islay distilleries and is a highly regarded brand. With your stated price range you can afford two bottles.
He made himself another drink and thought how much better the Perrier was than anything else you could put in whisky... Hemingway
ABC stores carry Black Bottle but I don't know if all the stores stock the brand.
I keep wanting to go back to Balvenie 15 SB. Also, the new release of Costco's Kirkland 18 year is a really nice price for a slightly watered down Macallan (80 proof instead of 86) 18 year. It's $33 for 750ML. Darn tasty as well.

There's the right way, the wrong way and the Max Power Way!
I've heard rumor of such a beast but never seen it. I go into Costco about twice a month and every time I ask I hear "it came in last Tuesday and was gone by Saturday." Apparently, the guys in Atlanta horde Costco Macallan worse than the SB.com guys hoard discontinued bourbons.
It lasts up here for maybe 7-10 days in general. But heck, it's an 18 year old single malt from a good distillery for $33. It's worth a chance for even people who don't love whisky. The first time I bought it, the cashier asked me how it mixed with Coke and I said that I drink it neat. She looked at me like I was crazy. I guess that I'm "baller" enough to mix with my 18 year single malts.

If you want an intro to Islay at its best go for Lagavulin 16. If you have a Costco near you they usually have it for $55-$65, but it can get expensive at other places. I would stretch the budget to get it, it's probably my fav regular bottling. I also second the Bruichladdich Laddie Ten, which is fantastic.
Do not avoid Laphroaig! That's great whiskey too.
Glendronach 12 PX to celebrate the end of my first year as a high school administrator.
I agree with this assessment. The Lagavulin 16 iodine was what made me really fall in love with good single malts. After all the normal releases, special releases, and limited releases from other distilleries, Lagavulin 16 still stands as one of my favorite drams. The only downside is that my money goes to Diageo.

SPARTA, Ky. - A series of heavy rain showers forced NASCAR to postpone the Quaker State 400 Sprint Cup Series race at Kentucky Speedway on Saturday night.
The race was rescheduled for Sunday at noon and is on TNT.
The race started on time, with Dale Earnhardt Jr. leading the field to the green flag.
Forecasters called for scattered thunderstorms throughout the afternoon and evening Saturday, and they were correct. The first big rain-maker swept through at 3 p.m. and another hit the track shortly after 5, leaving the track surface completely soaked.
Jet dryers were out and making progress before another cell hit around 7:15. NASCAR ordered the dryers turned off. This went on a couple of times until NASCAR made the call just after 9.
It takes about two hours to dry the 1.5-mile layout.
Sunday's forecast is expected to closely resemble the one that caused problems Friday and Saturday at Kentucky. NASCAR could have to dodge storms all afternoon.
Friday night's Nationwide Series race at Kentucky was also affected by weather; Brad Keselowski was declared the winner after rain hit 30 laps from the finish and shortened the event.
NASCAR will have an additional challenge: Weepers, which are cracks in the track where water bubbles up and streams down the surface. Kentucky's asphalt is worn out and has more weepers than other tracks.
Also, NASCAR did not bring its new Air Titan track drying system to Kentucky. It is requiring tracks to pay for use of the Air Titan, and Speedway Motorsports Inc. - which owns Kentucky Speedway - balked at the high price.
The Air Titan helped shorten a delay at Talladega Superspeedway by about 45 minutes on May 5.
The last time NASCAR had to postpone a Cup race was the 2012 season-opening Daytona 500. That event was run the following Monday night.
Here's the starting lineup for the Quaker State 400:

Members of the team designing the questionnaire have been trained in gender-specific measurement issues related to each of the topics covered by the census
There is a short note on the questionnaire on how to identify the head of household
Categories of answers for marital status are detailed enough to capture various types of informal unions
Questions on children ever born and children surviving allow separate answers for each sex
Questions on fertility and child survival have a short note reminding the interviewer that she/he needs to seek information from the mother or, when the mother is missing, from another female member of the household
Questions on pregnancy-related deaths have a short note reminding the interviewer that she/he needs to read them for all female deaths between 15 and 44 years old.
Reference period for questions on economic activity, recent births, household deaths are clearly shown in the question
Probing questions are included after the question on economic activity
There is a short note on use of activity lists for answering the questions on economic activity
Questionnaire tests should cover both female and male respondents with different social background.
Both women and men are selected as training instructors and as trainers presented in the audio-visual materials.
Gender-related measurement issues are reflected in the manual through descriptive examples and illustrated sketches.
The language and all the examples given in the manual or during training exercises are free of gender-based biases or other stereotypes related to the characteristics measured.
Training examples need to be reviewed so as not to foster gender-based or other stereotypes related to the characteristics measured.
Training provides guidelines regarding sex-selective underreporting or misreporting. Special attention should be dedicated to issues such as: - the criteria to identify the household head; - recording of the members of the household; - selecting women as respondents when information on children ever born and children surviving is needed; - use of economic activity lists, including lists of own-account productive activities; - use of probing questions.
For some countries, population censuses may be the only source of gender statistics on internal migration. Information on the place of usual residence combined with information on place of birth, duration of residence, place of previous residence or, alternatively, place of residence at a specified date in the past, disaggregated by sex can show the different patterns of internal migration for women and men. Among the patterns usually described are the migration between rural and urban areas and the migration between various regions of a country. Gender statistics in internal migration can be further disaggregated by other characteristics such as educational attainment or occupation. For example, data further disaggregated by educational attainment can show whether the gender differences in migration patterns are more pronounced among the less educated or higher educated persons. Data further disaggregated by occupation can show gender differentiated patterns in labour migration.
Information on the place of usual residence is used to define urban and rural areas and geographical and administrative areas, which are some of the most important breakdown variables for statistics in general and for gender statistics in particular. Urban and rural areas usually provide different ways of life, standard of living, education and employment opportunities, and access to information, communication and technology. Women's and men's roles and expectations also vary between the two types of residency. As a result, gender gaps in education or employment, for example, are different in the two types of residential areas. Similarly, different regions of a country may have different levels of development or different cultures, impacting the lives of women and men in different ways. For this purpose, information on the place of usual residence is used as an additional breakdown variable for sex and age disaggregated statistics on education, economic characteristics, household types, or fertility, for example.
Information on the place of usual residence disaggregated by sex, age and other variables can be used to identify groups of population in need of specific services that need to be provided locally. Examples of such groups are: older women and men with disability living in rural areas; or older women and men living alone in areas to which access is difficult.
Certain population groups that may be covered only in a population census (although they may be excluded from counting in some cases) are of particular concern from a gender point of view; for example, the homeless; nomads; persons living in areas to which access is difficult; refugees in camps. In such population groups, gender differences on various characteristics may be different from the main population. It is therefore important that population data disaggregated by sex, age and other characteristics are provided for each of these groups.
Population counts disaggregated by sex, age and place of usual residence can be used for computation of vital statistics rates such as age specific fertility rates and age and sex specific mortality rates at the level of urban areas, rural areas or by region.
Population censuses are the best source for collecting data on the immigrant stock. The country of birth question and the country of citizenship question give the foreign-born population and the group of foreigners living in the country respectively. Data on immigrant stock disaggregated by sex, age and other characteristics can reveal important gender differences. Migration patterns for women are often different than for men. Living arrangements and living conditions may also be different, for example, for young female migrant than for young male migrants. Information on employment and occupation of foreign-born female and male population can show whether female or male immigrant workers are more likely to be skilled and highly qualified. In addition, the gender gap in educational attainment or in employment and occupation in the migrant population may be different than the average population of the countries.
Identification of the household members, their relationship to head or other reference member of household and their grouping in family nuclei are the basis for deriving household and family composition and distinguishing different types of households. The information on living arrangements is an important input for understanding different situations of women and men with respect to the type of household or family they are part of and their position in it (for example, head or co-head). When sex, age and marital status of the household members are also taken into account, it is possible to identify certain types of households that tend to be more frequent for women than for men, such as one-person households of older persons or nuclear households of a parent with young children. Collecting information on household and family status further increases the possibility of identifying more types of living arrangements that tend to be different for women than for men. For example, lone mothers and lone fathers can be identified even when they are part of extended or composite households. Detailed living arrangements for female and male young adults or older persons can also be indentified.
Countries should specify in their census design whether a household reference person or a household head is used to list all the household members. They should also clearly specify the criteria to be used to identify the reference person or the household head as a strategy for avoiding sex-based biases. Training materials and instructions should prevent the use of the assumption that women can be head of the household only when there are no adult males in the household. In countries where spouses are considered equal in household authority and responsibility and may share economic support of the household, (a) a reference member with no implication of headship may be chosen, or (b) provision may be made for designation of joint headship.
Sex-selective underreporting of household members to the disadvantage of women may occur in countries or groups of population where women have a lower status. The order of recording the members of the household has an impact on undercounting of women. In India, for example, the traditional approach in recording household members was to start with the head of the household, then to enumerate male members and afterwards the female members of the household (UNFPA, 2004). As a result, the female members of the household and consequently the female population of the country were massively underreported. The new method involved in the 2001 Census was to start with the head of the household and continue with others according to their age. Still, in many countries, the omission of infants remains a common problem and sometimes girls may be more likely to be underreported than boys. The Census P&R2008 recommends that members of the household should be listed according to their family nucleus, if family nuclei are a topic of interest.
Sex, together with age, represents the most basic type of demographic information collected for each individual in the population census. Of all the topics investigated in population censuses, sex and age are more frequently cross-classified with other characteristics of the population than are any other topics. Sex disaggregation of data is a fundamental requirement for gender statistics. There are variations by sex for many socio-economic and demographic characteristics collected through a census, such as education, economic activity, migration, disability or living arrangements. In addition, population counts by sex, age and other characteristics, combined with information from civil registration system and other administrative sources, are the basis for calculating age specific fertility rates, sex and age specific mortality rates, enrolment rates for boys and girls, and, sometimes, sex-disaggregated rates for employment or unemployment.
Marital status, usually defined in relation to the marriage laws or customs of the countries, is a basic demographic information necessary to identify particular forms of unions (such as consensual unions or polygamy), and certain marriage practices (such as child marriage) that are often to the disadvantage of women. Information on marital status can also show whether women tend to be more often than men among widowed, separated or divorced, statuses that for women are often associated with economic insecurity and lack of support in rearing children.
Information on religion, ethnicity and indigenous people should be used as breakdown variables for gender statistics, especially when cultural factors are suspected to be one of the determinants of gender differences. For example, age at marriage for women, age gap between husband and wives, number of children born, and educational attainment for women as compared to men are often influenced by traditional practices, women's status in society or preferences for sons. These factors tend to be more often observed among certain religious or ethnic groups. Nevertheless, questions on religion, ethnicity and indigenous people are sensitive questions and their inclusion in the census should be carefully considered.
Use of detailed categories of marital status that would capture various forms of informal unions improves the adequacy gender statistics. The 2008 P&R for Population and Housing Censuses recommends that at least five categories of marital status be identified for each individual in relation to the marriage laws or customs of the country: (a) single or never married; (b) married; (c) widowed and not remarried; (d) divorced and not remarried; (e) married but separated – legally or de facto separated. However, from a gender perspective, it is important to have more detailed categories, reflecting various types of unions. In some countries, additional categories are included in the marital status classification: customary unions, such as registered partnerships and consensual unions, which are legal and binding under law; persons who are contractually married but not yet living together as husband and wife. Some countries may distinguish between formal marriages and de facto unions; and between persons legally separated and those legally divorced. Although not common, the collection of additional information related to polygamous or polyandrous marital status is needed in some countries.
Population censuses are an important source of data on fertility in countries lacking a timely and reliable system of vital statistics. In this context, information on recent fertility of women can be derived from the information on the date of birth of last child born. Information on the number of children ever born by women should be collected in the census even in countries with reliable vital registration of births. This topic can be useful for estimating levels of lifetime fertility for older cohorts of women, but also for assessing the completeness of the registration system.
In countries with civil registration system with incomplete coverage, information on children ever born and children surviving disaggregated by sex of the children and age of mothers can be used to calculate child mortality rates for girls and boys. Usually there is a gender gap in child mortality to the disadvantage of boys, mainly due to biological factors.
For adults as well as children, information on household deaths in the past 12 months by sex of deceased and age at death may be used to estimate the level and pattern of female and male mortality. Also, by asking follow-up questions concerning cause of death, some countries are able to collect data on pregnancy-related deaths that can be used to estimate maternal mortality. Data on adult female and male deaths may also be obtained based on indirect approaches such as the maternal or paternal orphanhood method. However, the adequacy of adult mortality data obtained through this indirect method from the population censuses is still uncertain.
When age at first marriage and age of mother at the time of first birth are included in the census questionnaire, additional information on child marriage and adolescent births can be obtained. This information is important because women are more likely than men to have an early marriage and to become parents while still adolescent, with consequences in terms of health, schooling and lifetime prospects for employment and career.
A more complete and accurate reporting of children ever born and children surviving is obtained when the information is collected separately for each sex.
As far as possible, efforts should be made to obtain information on fertility, child mortality (or survival) and marriage directly from the woman or mother involved, because she is more likely to recall correctly the details of her fertility, the mortality of her offspring and her marital experiences than any other member of the household.
Some of the misclassification of adult female deaths as non-maternal may be prevented with proper training of the interviewers. When collecting data on maternal mortality, the questions used to identify pregnancy-related deaths – such as "was the woman pregnant, giving birth or within six weeks after the end of pregnancy or childbirth at the time of her death" – should be asked even in cases where respondents voluntarily offer information on cause of death.
Population censuses provide benchmark gender statistics on education, covering population groups often not included in the sample of household surveys, such as homeless population, nomad population, or persons living in institutions. Data on literacy, school attendance and educational attainment disaggregated by sex, age and place of usual residence are crucial for understanding gender disparities in access to education across a country and changes in education gender gaps by cohort.
Population counts by sex, age and literacy or by sex, age and educational attainment can be used as denominators for calculating important gender indicators such as: birth rates by mother's education; child mortality rates by mother's education; female and male age-specific death rates by educational attainment; employment or unemployment rates for women and men by educational attainment.
Data on school attendance, educational attainment and literacy status should be collected and tabulated separately and independently of each other, without any assumption of linkages between them. In operational terms, this means systematically inquiring about the literacy status of each household member irrespective of school attendance or highest grade or level completed.
UNESCO recommends that literacy tests should be administered, in order to verify, as well as improve, the quality of literacy data. Nevertheless, administering a literacy test to all household members may prove impractical in the census and affect the overall participation, therefore limiting the utility of the results. Countries have regularly used simple self-reporting to provide an indication of literacy rates at the small area level (United Nations, 2008). When the reporting is done by a third person (the reference person or the head of household, for example) the literacy level for women and children may be overestimated (UNESCO Institute for Statistics, 2008).
Statistics on economic characteristics disaggregated by sex and age can show the contribution of women and men to economy, gender differences in employment conditions and gender segregation in the labour market. For a meaningful gender analysis, these data should be further disaggregated by other characteristics. For example, gender segregation in the labour market is partially determined by the gender gap in education, therefore data on occupations should be further disaggregated by level of educational attainment. Gender differences in employment conditions depend on the structure of local job markets, therefore data on activity status and status in employment should be further disaggregated by place of residence (urban/rural areas or by region).
Several types of economic characteristics that are important from a gender perspective may be difficult to collect in the population censuses, particularly in countries with less developed statistical system. For example, although income is an important topic for understanding economic gender gaps, it is difficult to collect reliable information on the value of home production and the value of income paid in kind. These are extremely important components of the total income for individuals and households in most developing countries, but measurement is extremely difficult and complex even in household surveys. Even when confined to cash income, the collection of income data in a population census may present special problems in terms of respondent's burden and response errors. Nevertheless, some developed countries have a long history of collecting detailed cash income information at the individual level.
There is limited experience in collecting in the census data on time-related underemployment, informal sector and informal employment. These topics are usually relevant from a gender point of view, but more testing is needed before deciding whether it is possible and worthwhile to include them in the census. Similarly, although the usual activity approach in measuring economically active population may reflect better the seasonal fluctuations of activities often associated with women's work, it may be more difficult to implement in a population census. The usual activity approach implies a bigger burden and it is subject to more recall errors, compared to the current activity approach.
The risk of misclassifying women as homemakers is reduced when basic questions on economic activity and status in employment are supplemented by further probing questions, or when more detailed questions were included in a self-administered questionnaire.
The proper identification of the activities that are economic is also helped by the use of activity lists. It is advisable for countries to develop an extensive list of own-account production activities considered to be within the SNA production boundary, so as to ensure that those involved in such activities are correctly classified as economically active. In principle, the production of all goods falls within the SNA production boundary, irrespective of whether the goods are intended for supply to other units or for the producers' own final use. In practice, however, the production of a good for own final use within households is recorded only if the amount of the good produced by households for their own final use is believed to be quantitatively important in relation to the total supply of that good in a country. According to the Thirteenth International Conference of Labour Statisticians, persons engaged in the production of goods for own final use within the same household should be considered as economically active only if such production comprises an important contribution to the total consumption of the household.
The questions on occupation should seek full details in order to capture relevant differences between women and men. The questions should be phrased to capture (a) the title of the job and (b) a statement about the main tasks and duties performed. The word "occupation" can be misleading, in some circumstances, and may best be either left out of actual questions on the topic or supplemented with a more easily understood word. The concern is that some of the economic activities of women may be left out and the occupation of women may be underreported because they are not qualified in the view of respondent or the interviewer as "occupation". For developing countries where translation in the field is very common, the terminology being used by interviewers in the local language should be carefully checked during testing and training periods.
Types of living quarters. In many countries, population and housing census are the only source of gender statistics for population living in certain types of living quarters, such as retirement homes and homes for elderly; orphanages; refugee camps; and camps for internally displaced people. It is important that population data disaggregated by sex, age and other characteristics are provided for each of these selected types of living quarters. These data can show, for example, whether more women than men are in retirement homes and homes for elderly and what is their marital status. Data on population in orphanages disaggregated by sex, age and school attendance can show whether girls or boys are more likely to be found in this type of institution and whether there is a gender gap in educational participation.
Ownership of housing property. Population and housing census can be used to improve the knowledge of women's and men's ownership of housing property. In some countries with available data, it has been shown that women are less likely than men to be owners of property. However, most of the time, data are collected at household level, without taking into account a joint ownership. Still, some countries have inquired in their censuses about property ownership by sex. For example, in the 2001 census in Nepal, for the self-owned housing properties, a question was added whether owned by female or male members of the household (UNFPA, 2004).
Main source of drinking water. Some of the questions covered in the housing census provide important background information for understanding some of the work burden of women and men. Census data on water supply system and main source of drinking water will provide information on the number of households with lack of access to water within the building or within 200 metres. In many countries, these are households where mainly women have an additional burden of work, as women are in charge of water collection more often than men (United Nations, 2010).
Fuels used for cooking. Housing censuses questions on fuels used for cooking provide important background information for issues of gender and environmental health. Members of households using solid fuels are exposed to indoor smoke, and women are more likely to develop acute respiratory infections, obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer, because they spend more time cooking and near fire (United Nations, 2010).

This iconic, best selling style now features leather trim and an updated tread pattern.
Vionic Tide II Pewter Metallic Leather Women's Sandal
Features include:
For the greatest comfort, we recommend wearing your new Orthaheel footwear or orthotics for just a few hours for the first few days to allow your feet to adjust to the new level of orthotic comfort and support. Within one to two weeks you should find the product completely comfortable and supportive.
LOVE these flip flops for around the house. I cannot go barefoot due to plantar issues, so these are lifesavers. I have them in black as well and will probably try some of the other styles, such as the walkers for exercising and work. Great heel and arch support!!!!! Well worth the money!
Review comments: I have plantar fascitis. This is the sandal with the most arch support Ive ever found. Thank you Vionic for making such an incredibly comfortable shoe. I have these sandals in practically every color. The pink sequins are my favorite! Such a beautiful color!!
I have been buying the Tide sandal for about 4 years now and the new technology is not as good as the old. I have a slightly wide foot and the old technology before they change the name to Vionic used to have more support and width which worked wonders for my foot. I used to wear these sandals year round as they were the only comfortable shoe for my feet. However since becoming Vionic they have narrowed the foot-bed and lowered the arch it seems. They just don't fit the same.
These shoes get worn everyday while I am at home. The arch support is important for my foot health and the ease of taking them on and off is invaluable. I bought these from another vendor, but plan on buying my next pair from Footwearetc. They are so wonderful, I want a back up pair. I even wear them in the shower so that I don't slip. I bought yoga socks (with toes) so I can wear them in the winter. Love 'em!!
I was diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis and had orthotics made especially for my arch. The Dr recommended these for sandals and along with my orthotics the support on my arch has made my pain go away completely. So there's the review on the support of the sandal. As far as the sizing and style. I had to get a size smaller than I usually wear. They hit my arch perfectly and I can wear them all day. I have both the black and bronze. I wish the base was a little narrower though. They are wider like a men's sandal and I have a narrow foot. They aren't as cute as many fun flat flip flops from Old Navy, etc, but they work for my feet so I'm hoping they get more cute styles and some great stylish arch supported boots for winter. For now, I'll probably end up getting another color to spice up my sad shoe wardrobe.
These sandals correct my foot angle (pronation), straighten my leg, and correct my gait. Why can't they make wedges, shoes, boots with this same insole?
My foot was swimming in this shoe.
My first pair of orthoheel's and I love them. I usually can't wear the between the toe type of sandal but this one does not bother me at all. Very comfortable after hours of wearing. Like it says, only wear a few hours a day to get used of the arch support, didn't take me long at all. I would recommend these for anyone who loves flip flops.

POTSDAM A man was slashed in a fight at Clarkson University late Wednesday or early Thursday, but full details have yet to emerge as police and school officials spar over how the incident was handled.
In a blotter item released to the media Friday morning, village police reported that one student menaced several others with a knife, and then slashed one student in the hand before he was disarmed.
Village police said they were not informed about the incident until 10:28 a.m. Thursday. No names were released, nor did police indicate whether any charges have been pressed in the case.
The police department will be following up with university officials as to the nature of this incident and why it was not immediately reported to the police department by Campus Safety and Security, the blotter item continued.
The newspaper was unable to confirm a report by WWNY-TV Channel 7 in which unnamed police sources described the incident as horseplay, telling the station that a 19-year-old male student slashed a 21-year-old male on the hand in a dispute over a hat.
The injured male did not require medical treatment, the station reported.
Calls to Potsdam Police Chief Kevin A. Bates went unreturned Friday afternoon. He is aware of the newspapers request for comment, a dispatcher said following the third call.
A Clarkson spokesman offered no details about the incident, but defended the universitys handling of the case.
Clarkson Campus Safety and Security followed its usual protocol in reporting its activities to the village of Potsdam Police Department, Michael P. Griffin, Clarksons director of news and digital content services, wrote in an e-mail.
We have cooperated fully with village police on their follow-up, Mr. Griffin continued. We refer all questions about their satisfaction with the follow-up and actions taken by the universitys Campus Safety and Security to the village police.
The statement I sent is all we have for you on this, Mr. Griffin replied when pressed for further details by a reporter.
Id recommend speaking to the chief of police. He can answer your questions best.

The exposures are a direct result of the work of all the people who are demanding accountability. With your continued help, we will secure the indictment and prosecution of Bush-era officials. Please show your support by making an urgently needed donation. The former commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, Ricardo Sanchez, is now calling for an investigation of Bush-era policies. Sanchez himself was forced into retirement because of his connection to Abu Ghraib -- for him to now call for an investigation shows that the plot goes much deeper than that one notorious torture chamber. "The mechanisms that are responsible for establishing accountability have lost their credibility within the country, and there's a lack of trust in them," retired Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez said in an interview on CNN's "Newsroom" Tuesday. This week also brought to light two under-reported stories: 1) Cheney personally led secret Congressional briefings on torture methods, and 2) as early as 2004, the Red Cross privately expressed concerns to Colin Powell that U.S. detention and interrogation methods violated international law. With any other administration we would call the newest torture revelations "shocking." But we are done being shocked. We have come to expect from the Bush administration the worst sort of human rights violations and trampling on the U.S. Constitution. What is "shocking" is how Dick Cheney continues to write his own indictment. With every story that breaks about Cheney's flagrant crimes, he takes to the airwaves not to deny the charges, but to make an even more flagrant defense of having broken the law! None of this could have come to light without the massive pressure exerted by the indictment movement and others calling for accountability. No one is above the law. Please continue to forward these emails and let all your friends know about the indictment movement. Right now the "hold Bush accountable" message is regularly in the mainstream media, but there's no guarantee it will remain so. We can't rely on the corporate media, with its short memory -- and even shorter news cycle -- to do the work for us. We have to keep the pressure on. This is not just a news story; for the future of this country, Bush & Co. cannot be let off the hook. Please take a moment right now and send this email to five friends and encourage them to sign the petition at IndictBushNow.org. Please Donate Today

Cardinals, Pirates set for true twin bill at PNC
Lynn, Burnett on tap for Game 1; Lyons, Cumpton face off in nightcap
If the current series between the Pirates and Cardinals is the biggest in the 12-year history of PNC Park, then Tuesday might just be the biggest single day for the Bucs in at least that long.
Less than 24 hours after Pittsburgh beat St. Louis, 9-2, and cut the Cardinals' lead in the National League Central to a half-game, the Pirates will host a doubleheader as part of a five-game set between the two clubs. Win both, and Pittsburgh could take a 1 1/2-game lead in a division it's never won.
But the Pirates have watched the Cardinals enjoy a lot of success in the last two decades, while they haven't even had a winning season since 1992. Tuesday marks an opportunity for the Pirates to prove they're capable of capitalizing in the second half of a season after faltering down the stretch in the last two years, and manager Clint Hurdle suggested that his team has been able to learn from watching the Cardinals.
"The team across the field there, their history and tradition speaks for itself," Hurdle said. "They were in the playoffs last year, they've been in the playoffs a handful of times in the last two dozen years. Can it [help]? Probably. But I know a lot of things need to be done for the first time. There's an opportunity for us to embrace and embark on some things we're doing for the first time in a while."
St. Louis, which has lost four in a row for the first time this season, is Pittsburgh's primary obstacle in its quest for a winning season and long-awaited playoff appearance. But Cardinals manager Mike Matheny doesn't want to place too much emphasis on Tuesday's games or the series in general. He did, though, make sure he had Lance Lynn facing off against the A.J. Burnett in Game 1 of the doubleheader.
"We wanted our more experienced pitcher lining up with theirs," Matheny said.
Cardinals right-hander Tyler Lyons will get the nod against Brandon Cumpton in Game 2.
Lynn enters Game 1 with a 12-5 record and 3.98 ERA, and he is coming off one of his best outings of the season. After losing back-to-back starts for the second time in less than a month, he held the Phillies to just one run on five hits and four walks while striking out six in seven innings.
Burnett, meanwhile, will make his fifth start since coming off the disabled list with a torn right calf. He went 0-1 with a 2.31 ERA and threw just 23 1/3 innings over his four previous outings.
The 36-year-old right-hander has allowed our runs in the first inning in each of his last two starts, but only two of those runs were earned. In his most recent start, against the Nationals on Thursday, he went seven innings -- six scoreless -- but was the victim of three errors in the first frame.
"Part of baseball, man. Those things happen. Things you can't control," Burnett said. "[My teammates] have to realize it didn't faze me, and it shouldn't faze them, either. We've got a long way to go. My job is to keep making quality pitches, no matter what, and get deep into the game."
Cardinals: Lyons returns to rotation for one day
After Lynn makes his 32nd Major League start in Game 1, 26-year-old Lyons will take the mound as a big leaguer for just the seventh time.
Lyons made six starts in May and June, giving up four runs or more in his final four outings before being demoted to Triple-A Memphis. There, though, he was strong, surrendering six runs and 16 hits in 40 2/3 innings (six starts) while walking eight and striking out 37. Matheny sent Lyons to Memphis to improve on some specific things, and he said the lefty succeeded in doing so.
"He was terrific," Matheny said. "We saw some very good outings here, too. He just got to the point where he was a little inconsistent with the strike zone. We just challenged him to work ahead in the count and be able to have that feel when he first came up. He went back and did a real nice job with that. I'm excited for him to come back here and show us."
With teams allowed to add an extra player for a doubleheader scheduled at least 48 hours in advance, the Cardinals plan to add Lyons for just one day as the 26th man on the active roster. However, Lyons was with the team on Monday and had an opportunity to get a feel for the Pirates before pitching against them.
"I was happy that I was able to get here a day early and get to feel it out again," Lyons said. "I get comfortable with the place and the other team, everything. I was happy I was able to get here today."
Pirates: McKenry hits DL, Presley recalled
Outfielder Alex Presley immediately took advantage of his promotion to the Majors on Monday by scoring and driving in a run in the Pirates' 9-2 win over the Cardinals. Unfortunately, that opportunity came at the expense of Michael McKenry, who hit the 15-day disabled list with a sprained left knee.
McKenry jammed the knee sliding to break up a double play on Saturday, when he delivered the first four-hit game of his career. He remained in the game and tested the knee on Sunday, which left it swollen on Monday and led to the decision to place him on the DL. Now he's forced to miss a crucial series.
"I hate it, of course. I want to be a part of it," McKenry said. "But it was the smartest thing for the team, to bring in someone else who can help right away. We're about to play a huge series."
• The last time PNC Park played host to a five-game series, it was the ballpark's inaugural 2001 season, and the Pirates went 3-2 against the Astros from July 26-29.
Worth noting
• The Cardinals' 537 hits and 101 home runs at PNC Park since it opened in 2001 are second only to the Pirates.
• The Pirates enter Tuesday with a 4-2 record against the Cardinals this season, including 2-1 at home.
• Pittsburgh is 19-1 at home this season when center fielder Andrew McCutchen notches two or more hits.

text: Mar 27, 2014 18:57 Nicolas Cage to shoot movie in BR Nicolas Cage to shoot movie in BR Associated Press file photo -- Oscar-winner Nicolas Cage will star in 'Left Behind,' a movie being shot in Baton Rouge. Timothy Boone| Advocate business writer March 27, 2014 Comments A remake of "Left Behind," starring Oscar-winner Nicolas Cage, is set to begin filming in Baton Rouge next month. According to a posting on the Baton Rouge Film Commission Twitter feed, "Left Behind" will start shooting Aug. 5 and will go until mid-September. The movie will be shot at Films in Motion Studios near Metro Airport and downtown. "There will be several locations for shooting, but they're not quite pinned down yet," said Liza Kelso, acting director of the Baton Rouge Film Commission. "They're doing the casting this week and they should have the final locations soon." "Left Behind" is based on the best-selling series of Christian novels about life after the Rapture. The movie will deal with what happens to people who are left behind on Earth after Christians are called to heaven. Sixteen "Left Behind" books have been published and the series has sold more than 65 million copies worldwide. A low-budget movie version of the first book was released in 2000, but in 2010 Cloud Ten Pictures got the rights to do a bigger budget remake. "My dream has always been to enter the movie theater with a first-class, high-quality movie that is grippingly interesting, but also is true to the biblical storyline — and that was diluted in the first attempt, but Lord willing, we are going to see this thing made into the movie that it should be," Tim LaHaye, who co-wrote the series with Jerry Jenkins, told Christian Cinema in 2010. "Left Behind" is set for release in 2014. The movie will be directed by Vic Armstrong, who served as a stunt coordinator and second unit director for a number of recent blockbusters, including "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," "The Amazing Spider-Man" and "Gangs of New York." " 'Left Behind' has a huge following," Kelso said. "We welcome Nicolas Cage and the entire crew and look forward to working with them." Kelso said the Baton Rouge movie industry is on track for a "busy, busy fall." Right now, a small independent movie "Student Bodies" is being shot in town. So far this year the comedy "Search Party," the teen science-fiction thriller "The Maze Runner" and a four-part miniseries about Bonnie and Clyde have been filmed around the Capital Region. Officials with Celtic Media Centre and Raleigh Studios have said a major movie will be shot at the studio beginning in September, but they can't reveal just yet what the project is.

Village Info:
Village of Birth: Kumogakure
Village of Alliance: Kumogakure
Rank//Chakra Info.
Background Info.
History: The village had gathered together in the event foretold that a child of great strength was about to be born on this day. The mother Hikuren, was in indescribable pain she hated and despised every minute of it but she loved that son was to be expected to be so highly respected. She was proud to bear the Child of Kiren, one of the most respected Jonin in the village. The clouds turned black and lightning began to crack and every moment the wind blew. Amongst all this happening Hikuren was enveloped and swallowed in chakra, the air around her became so dense the village people could barely breathe. Her cry was to be heard all the way in the highest mountains of the Kumogakure. then it all came to a sudden halt the wind calmed and the storm clouds dispersed, the baby was now born but instead of coming out crying it was sleeping as it had spent all its energy trying to get out and then the Medical Corps took and checked to see if everything was all right with the baby. The village rejoiced in happiness but before their merrymaking could get a start the husband, Kiren couldn't even look at his wife, she was dead. The medical corps had checked, all of her internal organs had been ruptured and crushed. The village a Wake the next morning, it was bright and the sun beaded on the village. But Kiren couldn't even look up, but vowing to take of their child with his Life, his name would be named Seishou. The medical corps diagnoised Hikuren's death, as an imbalance of chakra during the birth, or some sort of freak accident.
When Seishou turned 5 he went under intense training. The training was intense for a 5 year old, but at the same time Seishou would do everything his father told him with little effort, walking on water and running on the sides of trees even shuriken jutsu by age 7. The day before Seishou was to be finally enrolled in the academy at age 9 his Kiren had a final sparring session with him. He barraged him with him mastery of taijutsu, none of it was connecting with Seishou and to his shock Seishou hadn't broken a sweat neither was he breathing hard. The father continuously came at Seishou each in every time with more killing intent, this confused Seishou but he never said a word. Kiren then took out a kunai and through it, Seishou then defelcted it with great ease. Kiren took out 2 more kunai and read and started slashing and again Seishou began dodging, Kiren had never fought anything like this. Seishou continued to get more irritated at each strike going on to wonder why was his own father really trying to kill him. As Kiren came in for next attack he noticed that Seishou had become irritated, Seishou then wasted no time in slugging his father sending flying back to the ground. Kiren scrambled to get up but saw Seishou running in the other direction in dead silence. With the father looking seemingly disgusted.
As soon as Seishou was enrolled in the ninja academy he was spotted as great talent. Already knowing all the things being taught, he seemed very distant to the students but always wanted friends. Word got around to the Raikage, A who was looking for a partner for his Double Lariat. Seishou was then sent to the Raikage's training ground where he would be tested. He had an affinity towards lightning which was an important factor. His ability to shape chakra even astounded the Raikage's advisors. The Raikage then began to get interested in the boy's talents. The advisors then went in and did more precise testing. The next day the advisors came back with interesting news, Seishou had a passion for combat in order to test his skills and had a nearly unbreakble will. Impressedthe Raikage ordered for only Seishou and another to be left to be named B. All the other candidates went home in disappointment. Seishou and another were called onto the battle field. The battle began in after it was over the field was in ruins, and many crater were abounded in every few meters of the field. The opponent had won, but barely standing. The Raikage approached the Seishou applauding his great effort. The opponent then named Bee he walked over and rapped "Nice fight fool yah fool". Seishou simply smirked and said nothing back. The Raikage then sent Seishou off to be explore the world around him and hone his many talents, and secretly ordered him to be watched over by the village Jonin and to guide his journey.

Amazon Kindle Voyage
The Kindle Voyage is Amazon's best e-reader to date, and probably the best e-reader ever -- but it doesn't come cheap.
Amazon Kindle ( 2014)
For those who can live without an integrated light, the Kindle (2014) offers the full Kindle e-ink e-reading experience with little compromise for a budget price.
Barnes & Noble Nook GlowLight
While it doesn't necessarily beat the Kindle Paperwhite, the $119 Nook GlowLight is an excellent e-reader that's strongly worth considering if you don't want to buy into the Amazon ecosystem.
Kobo Aura
With its more portable design, the Kobo Aura is a worthwhile -- albeit pricier -- Kindle Paperwhite alternative for EPUB fans who don't want to be tied to Amazon's proprietary ecosystem.
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite ( 2013)
While the "all-new" Paperwhite may seem like an unspectacular upgrade on the surface, it's a clear improvement over the original Paperwhite and arguably the best e-reader currently available.
Kobo Mini
The affordable Kobo Mini is a likable touch-screen e-ink e-reader that's too small for some and not quite small enough for others.
Kobo Glo ( black)
The Kobo Glo is an excellent Kindle alternative, especially for readers seeking EPUB compatibility and international options.
Amazon Kindle ( 2012, special offers)
The $69 Amazon Kindle is an excellent no-frills e-book reader for anyone who's willing to forgo a built-in light or a touch screen.
Sony Reader PRS-T2 ( white)
The Sony PRS-T2 is a perfectly good touch-screen e-reader whose only sin is that it doesn't have any competitive advantages over Amazon's and Barnes & Noble's e-readers.
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 3G
With an excellent built-in light and Amazon's best-in-class e-book selection, the Kindle Paperwhite rises to the top of the e-reader pack.

Jul 18, 2014 Band Shirt Guy
The Rolling Stones break pretty much all the rules of the music business. After more than 50 years in the game, they're still recording, still touring, and still the band everyone wants to see. You could probably sell a pebble from the beach for a nice sum if you told folks that Mick Jagger once kicked it at Keith Richards. I'm not saying I'd buy it - but I'd think about it. I know, I know, that makes me sound weird. Maybe I am - but is that such a bad thing when it means I find stuff like this amazing shirt from the Stones' legendary 1978 tour. They tossed out the overblown stage theatricals they'd been using up until then and threw everything into the music.
Jul 12, 2014 Band Shirt Guy
This is a treasure for any die hard fan of the Grateful Dead. This colorful tee shirt proof has been signed by six members of the legendary band , which means that the proof met their approval and could be put into production. Autographed by Bill Kreutzmann, Vince Welnick, Mickey Hart, and founding members Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, and the late, great Jerry Garcia himself. This is a true collector's item and your chance to own a real piece of music memorabilia that will be the envy of any Deadhead.
Oct 31, 2013 Band Shirt Guy
Legend has it this RUN DMC relic was obtained at an invite only show in NYC where only 200 or so attended. The back of this shirt contains the autographs of Darryl 'D.M.C.' McDaniels, Joseph 'Run' Simmons and the late Jason 'Jam Master Jay' Mizel. Rev Run even signed the front again for good measure. Check out the full story behind this shirt over at Record Mecca, and of course drop a cool G on it if it tickles your fancy. I really haven't seen anything similar for sale that is older than this, even though RUN DMC had been around for almost two decades by the time the year 2000 came around. Calling all vintage hip hop memorabilia collectors, any takers? Also, is there anyone out there that can verify this is real? Or that the show actually took place? Not doubting, but more backstory will always help sell an item like this. We wrote about a sweet RUN DMC jacket up for auction last year in this post, which is in fact still for sale.
Oct 31, 2013 Band Shirt Guy
As you may have heard in the airwaves, Prince is back with a new track called 'Breakfast Can Wait'. The track is supposedly part of a new album in the works for 2014 called 'Plectrum Electrum'. There's also a four song EP that was release on iTunes last week. The artist now known again as Prince along with 3rdEyeGirl have also been putting on some random and impromptu appearances (Pajama Parties?) at Paisley Park in Minnesota. Speaking of Paisely Park, we had a look on eBay to see if there were any rare or interesting Prince shirts or merch for sale. Check out our picks below which include a Paisely Park shirt of unknown year/origin, a 1982 '1999' shirt, and a local crew package with a couple of shirts, jacket, hat and CD. If you're vulnerable to Prince collectibles, hide your wallet now as none of these are on the budget end of things. If there's any Prince merch aficionados out there who can verify the authenticity of any of these shirts, please let us know what you think! And of course, try this page here, if you're looking for something more budget friendly. Maybe you're already loaded down with Prince shirts, share yours with the world by snapping a picture and uploading to our archive. On a final note, how can we get a legit Breakfast Can Wait shirt with the Dave Chapple graphic?
Oct 28, 2013 Band Shirt Guy
Band Shirt Archive lives, eats and breaths on a shoestring budget. In order to pay our bills, we receive kick downs ($$) from stores like eBay, T-Shirts.com, Stylin Online, Rock.com Hot Topic, Cafe press and other stores you see listed on our site. Basically, if you find a shirt for sale on our website and click through to the store where the shirt is for sale, we might receive a small commission(usually 2% - 10%) from that store when you purchase the shirt. This helps us stay in business, and keeps us from having to do traditional ugly banners and other invasive advertising. We often donate a portion of our revenue to support music education causes (which you can read about on our site or in our press kit). Thanks for supporting Band Shirt Archive!

Urgent Care reviews in Menomonie
At the ER iwas told my shoulder wasn't dislocated, but I had torn ligaments and that I should see an orthopedic physican, which I did who confirmed the hopsital diagnosis. I wasted 4 hours in an ER because of the incorrect diagnosis by . The hospital provided me with a another sling to immobilize my shoulder.
Once I discovered the mis-diagnosis and that the additional charged for the sling, which I never used,,I called the facility the following day to inform them and asked if I could at least return the sling and avoid the $25 charge and was told they would look into it and get back to me. As expected and typical of bad service providers who choose to sweep their mistakes under the rug as opposed to addressing them, they never called me back.

A 'Nightmaren', much like 'NiGHTS'. This Nightmaren is evil, and works for a man named 'Wizeman'. He will do anything in his power to stop NiGHTS. He can fly and do almost anything NiGHTS can do.
Reala cackled evilly at NiGHTS, who lay defeated at his feet.

28 U.S. Code § 291 - Circuit judges
prev | next
(June 25, 1948, ch. 646, 62 Stat. 900; July 28, 1953, ch. 253, § 2,67 Stat. 226; Sept. 3, 1954, ch. 1263, § 39(b),68 Stat. 1240; July 9, 1956, ch. 517, § 1(a),70 Stat. 497; Pub. L. 85–755, § 2,Aug. 25, 1958, 72 Stat. 848; Pub. L. 95–598, title II, § 202,Nov. 6, 1978, 92 Stat. 2660; Pub. L. 97–164, title I, § 108,Apr. 2, 1982, 96 Stat. 28; Pub. L. 102–572, title I, § 104,Oct. 29, 1992, 106 Stat. 4507.)
Historical and Revision Notes
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., §§ 17,
22 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, §§ 13,
18,36 Stat. 1089; Oct. 3, 1913, ch. 18, 38 Stat. 203; Sept. 14, 1922, ch. 306, §§ 3,
5,42 Stat. 839; Mar. 2, 1929, ch. 488, § 1,45 Stat. 1475; June 7, 1934, ch. 426, 48 Stat. 926; June 25, 1936, ch. 804, 49 Stat. 1921; Aug. 24, 1937, ch. 754, § 4,50 Stat. 753; Dec. 29, 1942, ch. 835, § 1,56 Stat. 1094).
Section consolidates all provisions of sections
17 and
22 of title
28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., relating to designation and assignment of circuit judges.
The revised section omits a reference to the Chief Justice contained in said section
22, since in exercising the powers under subsection (b), he acts as a circuit justice.
Paragraph (d) of said section
17, making the section applicable to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, is omitted since such court is included in this revision because the District of Columbia is made a separate circuit. (See section
41 of this title.)
Provisions of said sections
17 and
22 authorizing the senior Associate Justice to act in the absence of the Chief Justice of the United States were omitted as surplusage in view of specific authority to so act in section
3 of this title.
The words in said section
17 "for such time as the business of such district court may require," were omitted as inconsistent with the language of said section
22 of title
28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., which employed the words "the public interest requires" and "from time to time and until he shall otherwise direct." The revised section and sections
294 and
296 of this title make clear the power to make designation and assignment without any limitation of time, to revoke such designation and assignment and to make, from time to time, new designations and assignments.
The term "chief judge" of the circuit was substituted for "senior circuit judge." (See reviser's note under section
136 of this title.)
References in said sections
17 and
22 to retired judges were omitted as covered by section
294 of this title.
Other provisions of said section
17 of title
28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., are incorporated in sections
295 and
296 of this title.
Other provisions of said section
22 of title
28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., are incorporated in section
296 of this title.
