Rated 4 out of 5Â by gr8k8thatsme comfortable and stylish This skirt is both comfortable and stylish. It runs true to size. I like the length as it is not to short and not to long. I agree that it elongates the legs with having the slit on one side. My only con with this was that the waist band is somewhat loose- no elastic in that wide band to help keep its shape so it tends to fold down and roll over a bit. Only time will tell if this ends up driving me crazy but so far I have just adjusted it when it does that and it is fine. Very cute piece. March 1, 2015

Boys high school basketball: West Jordan downs South Sevier, Lone Peak, Orem impress in debut of Great Western Shootout
OREM — The Great Western Shootout has become everything Orem coach Golden Holt imagined it would be and more in its second year. Holt started the tournament with the hope of promoting the great and often overlooked basketball in the state along with providing great regional out-of-state competition.
Mission accomplished. Thursday night saw the fans come out to see great play from every school represented.
I couldnt be more thrilled to go out there and see more or less a full house, Holt said. A lot of that credit goes to Lone Peak. We know that when you bring in Lone Peak that the fans follow them, so were excited that coach Quincy Lewis has been so gracious in taking time out of his packed schedule to do this tournament. This tournament has really surpassed my wildest dreams.
The Knights, who are ranked no. 3 nationally by Maxpreps, headlined the first night of games and didnt disappoint. After a somewhat sluggish start against Foothill high from Las Vegas, Nev., the players ratcheted up the defensive pressure and won going away 72-38.
Nick Emery (17 points), TJ Haws (15) and Erik Mika (15) led the way for the Knights in largely three quarters of work each.
Orem had the stage next and didnt disappoint with a convincing 68-46 victory over Basha High School from Chandler, Ariz. It was the first game of the year for the Tigers, but it certainly didnt look that way.
This is a great opportunity for us to go out and play great teams and its the perfect way to start the season, Holt said. To have all these great teams come in to our place is a great opportunity for us and for the other local schools.
BYU commit Dalton Nixon led the Tigers with 18 points, seven rebounds and five steals. Jordan Darger added 15 points and 10 rebounds with point guard Zach Hunsaker providing seven assists and 12 points.
In the first game West Jordan used a stellar final two minutes of play to beat South Sevier 57-49. The Jaguars were down 49-45 with just two and a half minutes remaining, but scored the final 12 points of the game to come away with the win.
Brent Beales and Brayden Bennett paced West Jordan with 15 points a piece.
Denver-East is largely considered the best out-of-state team in the tournament and it looked the part in a 68-60 win over Bountiful. The Braves fought hard and were boosted by Zach Seljaas and his 29 points and eight 3-point baskets, but came up just short.
Fridays slate of games has Bountiful taking on South Sevier at 3:30pm followed by West Jordan matching up against Basha at 5pm. Orem then takes the court against Foothill at 6:45 capped off by Lone Peak vs. Denver-East at 8:15pm.

baby bag and hospital bag
Comments (8)
I have 2 different bags so I can take as many samples and such home as I can get!
Me: 43, Him: (older than me ;-))
Mine: DSD 21, DD 12, DS 9; His: DS 16, DS 13
Ours: Caliana Ruth 11-8-12
I also have a 5 yr old and it's been so long since I gave birth to her! This whole pregnancy thing seems new all over again!
I will be bringing a diaper bad for this LO, since I'll have her coming home outfit(s) in there, as well as some other baby stuff (like a nursing cover, and a blanket). And I will obviously be bringing a separate suitcase for myself. I only brought a small bag for myself last birth, because I thought a bigger bag would be frowned upon. But I don't give a damn what anyone says. The suitcase is fairly small, and it has wheels so no one has to worry about hauling it around on their shoulders. I am bringng a robe this time, so I know I'll need the extra space for that.
I've got 2 bags, a bigger one and a little one. The bigger one has clothes and such. The little one has my toiletries, it would probably fit into the big bag but it would be pretty squished and since i'm sure we will come home with more then we went with I want to have a little extra room to pack it back up.
I packed LO's diaper bag with his stuff, including a stuffed animal I want for him to take pictures with and a receiving blanket as well as paci's that I want him to have...
Then I packed a duffle bag for me and DF.. that includes our toiletries as well... clothes, nursing items,etc.

Think Powerball money goes to a good cause? Think again
Winston Armani, Deseret News
If you're justifying your Powerball ticket purchases by assuming the profits go to a good cause, think again.
Many believe the money from Powerball sales goes to help education, but about 72 cents of every dollar goes doesn't make it to a school's budget, according to NBC News.
Powerball winners receive about 60 cents of every lottery dollar, and a portion of the money goes to an Italian-based company that operates lotteries in 50 countries.
States can receive as little as 11 cents to pay for government services, according to the NBC article.
Some experts criticize lotteries, claiming they are not an effective way to raise funds.
"It's a very regressive tax," Lucy Dadayan, a senior policy analyst at the Rockefeller Institute of Government, told NBC. "And any time a government relies on a regressive tax it's not the best policy option. But it's easier for state officials to promote gambling rather than to increase income taxes or sales taxes."
Others say governments can't go without lotteries, and that programs and services, like education and social services, would struggle.
"If lotteries were not in existence those programs and services would be cut or they would have to be funded through another source," David Gale, executive director of the North American Association of State and Provincial Lotteries, told NBC News.

Trouble mounts for Nev. official Brooks
Troubled Nevada Assemblyman Steven Brooks was arrested early Sunday in Las Vegas on suspicion of physically attacking a family member, then grabbing for an officer's weapon.
The arrest occurred only days after the North Las Vegas Democrat embarked on a three-week leave following a string of bizarre events that began with his Jan. 19 arrest for allegedly threatening Assembly Speaker Marilyn Kirkpatrick.
Brooks, 40, was "agitated" and refused to obey officers' orders when they arrived to find him outside a home after responding to a report of a domestic dispute, according to police. Brooks is accused of fighting and grabbing for an officer's weapon as they tried to arrest him shortly after midnight.
Police spokesman Bill Cassell said the domestic dispute occurred inside the home, but he did not know the identity of the homeowner. No other details about the dispute were immediately available.
Las Vegas police follow a policy of not identifying the relationships of domestic dispute victims to suspects, Cassell said.
Brooks was booked into the Clark County Detention Center on misdemeanor charges of domestic battery and obstructing a public officer. His bail was set at $4,000, and he awaits an initial court appearance on Monday morning.
Brooks' attorney, Mitchell Posin, said he probably would talk to Brooks later Sunday. "It would be premature for me to say anything until I hear what his side of the story is," Posin said.

If you're working overtime and aren't getting the pay required by law, you're part of a growing number of Americans who are now filing wage complaints against their employers under the Fair Labor Standard Act.
Those people who think their boss is the greatest thing since sliced bread are undoubtedly in the minority — it is unnatural to like your boss, and most do not because the majority thinks that these fearless leaders seem to suffer from a high powered superiority complex.
Now, there just might be some scientific evidence to back that up.
If you're having trouble landing a job, maybe it's time to look at your resume the way a hiring manager or recruiter would and learn what they like — and what will send your application straight to the trash.
Medical advancements and healthier living mean many people have longer lifespans these days. That means lots of those older Americans are retiring later than in generations past. In fact, some analysts are calling 70 the new 70 in terms of retirement.
Not everybody hates their job, but you'd be hard pressed to find someone who likes all aspects of their workplace. Citrix recently conducted a survey of 1,013 office workers in which they asked what they dislike about their 9-to-5 jobs.
The eight-hour workday is fairly standard in the United States, and June 19 marks the 100th anniversary of it becoming law for federal workers back in 1912.
Private companies began to follow suit four years later, but these days, working only eight hours a day sometimes seems downright quaint.
Need another reason to hate your boss? New research shows more than three-quarters of managers will take a summer vacation, while only 65 percent of their underlings will do the same.

How do you connect an Android 4.0.3 phone to a Wifly module using level 14 API function
wifi direct? I configured Wifly to work in adhoc mode, and wrote the Android app as shown in the Android.developer guide but I can not find the peer.
Since Android 4.0, it is possible to connect an Android phone to a Wifly module in adhoc mode, without rooting, with the following technique:
These 3 steps are described in the following posts:
The current limitation is that the SSID and passphrase are given non-editable random names, so that you have to reconfigure the Wifly when you create a new AP (but note the AP will live on the phone as long as Wifi is enabled, unless you remove it with the helper app). Let's hope that a future Android release will remove this limitation by allowing to keep a permanent SSID and passprase.
UPDATE: With Android 4.2.1, the above limitation seems to have disappeared! The SSID and passphrase remain the same when the access point is removed and recreated.
Its not possible to work with AdHoc mode devices via Android (in iOS you can) in normal ways.
Please read here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/android-ad-hoc-wireless-network-support/
This link shows a way to work with AdHoc.

Funding should be given to facilities that lie or violate their permit restrictions. Both wind, solar, geothermal and renewables that do not include mechanisms must include citizen suit provisions to biomass. ensure that monitoring and enforcement occurs. Hurts Vulnerable Communities Does Not Address Co-Pollutant Emissions Problem → ACES only addresses CO2 pollutants, missing an opportunity to comprehensively address the range of toxic pollutants that facilities emit. Failing to acknowledge and address the link between CO2 emissions and other co-pollutants ignores the local public health impacts of polluting facilities and puts communities' health at risk. Solution → To protect all communities – especially the most vulnerable ones – all toxic emissions must be reduced. ACES can ensure this reduction by including language to address co-pollutants, including strengthening of the regulation of those pollutants under the Clean Air Act Encourages the Creation of Pollution Hotspots Problem → A national pollution trading system can create "pollution hotspots" by allowing pollution concentration in the areas where it is cheaper to buy permits to cover continued or increased emissions than to actually clean up facilities. This is a serious problem for communities that have the oldest and dirtiest facilities. Solution → Hotspots could be discouraged through geographic restrictions on emissions trading or by placing a price premium on overburdened communities, encouraging facilities their to sell their permits and reduce their local emissions. Provides Almost NO Consumer Protection from Energy Price Increases Problem → With so few permits being purchased, ACES cannot provide a strong safety net to protect low- and middle-income consumers against the price shocks of increasing energy costs. Solution → ACES must require more facilities to purchase their permits and provide that a substantial portion of the revenue raised through the program be set aside to go back to consumers who are most vulnerable to energy price increases.

In 2008, candidate Obama was lambasted for supposedly endorsing policies of wealth redistribution. Yet only a few years later, the most explicit examples of such redistribution are happening in the states, and often at the urging of Republicans.

It is absurd to have to say this, but New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, activist Al Sharpton and President Obama are in no way responsible for the coldblooded assassination of two police officers in Brooklyn on Saturday.
Wait—North Korea has the Internet?

In the short run, President Obama has demonstrated that the term "lame duck" has its limits.
The senior attorney at the celebrated civil liberties group is pushing for the prosecution of U.S. officials who tortured detainees and terrorism suspects—an issue the Senate's report on the subject was conspicuously silent about.
Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the other "Left, Right & Center" panelists discuss Obama's year-end news conference, during which the president said Sony should have consulted him before canceling the release of "The Interview." Also, is it a new world for Cuba?

Listen carefully to the Republican leaders and presidential hopefuls roaring with outrage over President Barack Obama's courageous decision to normalize relations with Cuba; listen very carefully, because no matter how long or how closely you listen to them, there is one thing you will surely never hear.
By Treasury Secretary Jack Lew's reckoning, being a millionaire does not constitute living high above the ranks of ordinary people.

President Obama's historic opening to Cuba is long overdue—and has a chance of hastening the Castro dictatorship's demise.
The American president has signed legislation that freezes assets and revokes travel visas belonging to Venezuelan officials who stand accused of violating the human rights of opponents of the South American nation's socialist government.
Three years into a sagging Clinton presidency and a bitterly divided Congress, the 500-page executive summary of the Senate Intelligence Committee's long fought-over, much-delayed, heavily redacted report on the secret CIA drone wars was finally released. Committee chairman Ron Wyden (D-OR) took to the Senate floor, and said…
The failed United States policy against Cuba, which has for more than half a century stifled relations between these neighboring countries and inflicted generations of harm upon the Cuban people, may finally be collapsing.
With the passage of the 2015 federal budget bill, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon got lawmakers to repeal a key part of the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform law and allow banks to use the savings accounts of ordinary Americans to gamble in the stock market on behalf of hedge funds, corporations and the rich.
A long-dreaded transformation from hope to doom is taking place as President Obama ushers the world onto the no-turning-back road of nuclear perdition.
President Obama's observation that racism is "deeply rooted" in U.S. society is an understatement. Racism is as American as the Fourth of July, and ignoring this fact doesn't make it go away.
New rules curtailing the use of racial profiling won't apply to border agents, who will still be allowed to consider race and ethnicity when stopping people at airports, international crossings and immigration checkpoints.

China is emerging as the new Number One, while the policy makers in Washington can't get their heads out of the Cold War.
Take, for example, studies arguing for a liberalized immigration policy by the Cato Institute, a conservative libertarian think tank started by the vast wealth of right-wingers Charles and David Koch.

Chuck Hagel's departure from his post as defense secretary has been attributed to his failure to fit in with the Obama cabinet's crowd. Among his other reported deficiencies was that he was only a sergeant in Vietnam, twice wounded.

It's a surprise to see President Obama actually fire someone. But I have to worry that Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel's forced departure may signal further expansion of U.S. military involvement in Iraq and Syria.
The president's immigration action has forced the contradictions of the Republican establishmentarians into the sunlight.
Marion Barry Jr., who began his career in public service during the civil rights era and spent four terms as mayor of Washington, D.C., died late Saturday night in his hometown at age 78.
The announcement of President Obama's executive action on immigration elicited threats of retaliation from congressional Republicans. Here are some of the winners and losers.
This week on Truthdig Radio in association with KPFK: The poet and activist says his friend Edward Snowden's mind "is like cool, clear spring water." Also: Robert Scheer on President Obama's immigration overhaul, Keystone XL dies in the Senate, and Kasia Anderson breaks down the Bill Cosby rape allegations.
It was a dramatic scene in the Senate this week. As Sen. Elizabeth Warren, presiding, announced the defeat of the Keystone XL pipeline, a Crow Creek Sioux man from South Dakota sang out in the Senate gallery.

Protecting immigrants from deportation, permitting them to come out of the shadows, is the right thing to do.
For a man who had taken a stunning electoral blow two weeks earlier, Barack Obama completed his Asian trip with an air of unperturbed leadership of the world.

The only reason President Obama has to act on immigration reform is that House Speaker John Boehner won't.

On Friday's "Real Time," Bill Maher took on Russell Brand and a big portion of the American public who don't believe voting makes a difference.
Obama's Republican critics say that his forceful approach on immigration, climate change and net neutrality show he isn't paying attention to what the voters said in the midterm elections. They're right.
Obstructing, denouncing and demonizing Barack Obama are so central to the existence of the Republican Party today that its leaders simply ignore the real purposes of the president's proposed immigration orders.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel announced that the U.S. military will research and develop new weapons systems based on cutting-edge technologies in attempt to maintain its military dominance.
The Obama administration has been considering whether to approve the Keystone XL pipeline for six years, a delay tactic that has Congress—the current, pre-GOP-wave, lame duck Congress—very close to going over his head.
Days after his historic carbon pollution deal with China, Barack Obama is set to announce a substantial pledge from the U.S. over the next four years to help poor countries invest in clean energy and cope with the hazards of a destabilizing environment, administration sources said.
This week's stunning announcement of a long-range agreement between the Obama administration and the Chinese government over carbon emissions is the best environmental news in years.
It's been called a historic agreement—a game changer in the battle to combat climate change. But can China and the U.S. fulfill the promises in their announcement of plans to cut carbon emissions?
It's one thing for Congress, elected by the people, to undermine the Affordable Care Act. It's quite another for the hyper-activist conservative justices on our Supreme Court to do it.
Although the U.S. and Iran have no official diplomatic ties, the most powerful men in each country have apparently decided to cut out the middle men and women.

According to a report in The Washington Post, FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler, a former cable and telecom lobbyist, is prepared to embarrass the president and annoy millions of Americans all at the same time.
By Nick Anderson —
When high-mindedness collides with reality, reality usually wins.
President Obama called Monday for "the strongest possible rules to protect" the open Internet and voiced opposition to proposals by cable and telecom companies to create fast lanes on the Internet for users who can afford to pay.
Former Marine and State Department official Matthew Hoh, the first known U.S. official to resign in protest over the Afghan War, describes President Obama's authorization of 1,500 additional troops to Iraq in the campaign against the Islamic State as "for lack of a better phrase ... crazy."
What happens to a war in the absence of coherent state policy? Washington's Iraq War 3.0, Operation Inherent Resolve, is what happens. As the mission enters its fourth month it may be time to ask, in all seriousness: What could possibly go right?
Tuesday's crushing defeat of the centrist Clinton/Obama Democratic Party provides an opening for the American left. The next few years are not going to be pretty, but they could be the beginning of something beautiful.
Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the other "Left, Right & Center" panelists sort through the Republican victory in a rare live show out of Washington, D.C. The Atlantic's David Frum says voters signaled the economy continues to disappoint; Scheer says Obama was responsible for ignoring the party base; and host Matt Miller suggests we institute mandatory voting.
U.S. Marince Corps/Staff Sgt. Joseph DiGirolamo
The president will send an additional 1,500 troops to Iraq. Though they will reportedly serve as advisers, some will head to areas of heavy fighting.
In the wake of the 2014 midterm "wave election," Americans will soon find out whether they actually want what they have wrought.

Stay away from the T-Mobile comet. This is my first and only smart phone for now. i love android but I am stuck on 2.2 which blows and is too slow but it also has to do with my device specs which are also not good. Next month the wife and I will switch to a Samsung with dual core CPU over 1Ghz and more memory, better camera, etc.. It may be Galaxy 2 or 3 but have you looked at phone like the Samsung Blaze? That is what we may upgrade to.

That sounds promising, how are they performing on JB?
Xperia Ray, Sola, Go.
The Xperia Ray has a working CM10 build, it's won't perform that well under full load but it fits the budget.
I heard good things about both, nothing in particular though.
First of all forget about cyanogenmod ROMs
Use AOKP roms
I know man, I mainly mean once mid-class used phones here that still have some potential for say the next main release or so...
Do NOT get a budget Android phone - these cheap devices are what's wrong with Android. They don't offer a very good Android experience, and it will put you off Android.
