Her early days at the Palace are hard for the lonely princess. She falls out with the King's mistress, Madame du Barry, and her marriage seems on rocky grounds, because it remains unconsummated, despite her attempts in bed to gently persuade her husband .
Then the King dies, and the Dauphin become Louis XVI. Marie Antoinette becomes queen. Her new found power enables her to make changes in the Palace. She banishes Madame du Barry, pursues her fondness for gambling, and spends outrageous amounts on fashion and diamonds.
Marie Antoinette ignores the austerity outside the Palace gates.

rlederer illustration [***UPDATED PG 02*** 11-07-2009 Cartoony-ness!]
Hi all,
Some new stuff for fun and work Newest stuff up top. Hope you enjoy. Characters were about 3 hours apiece. The environment took about 3 days all told. A higher res version of the enviro piece at my blog. http://raylederer.blogspot.com. Thanks for looking...
This illustration is from a design brief for a book called Green by Jay Lake that is due to be published soon by Tor books. Dan Dos Santos has the honor of illustrating the real cover and it's a beauty. I'm fortunate enough to have had some great input from Dan, Scott Fischer, Greg Manchess, Rebbecca Guay, Donato, Boris and Julie, Dave Palumbo and the rest of the IMC alumni of 2008. Thanks all! I could not have progressed as far as I did without your help and encouragement!
****UPDATED***: I did a bit of tweaking to the legs to get rid of the heavy handed musculature. Not a big change but I think it helps some. Thanks for the input everyone!

nice, but the pose is rather strange, specially with the picture beeing cropped like that.
August 2nd, 2008 #5
I agree that the pose and anatomy of the legs is a bit strange. I really like the rendering tough, reminds me of Nox. The face and hands are my favourite parts.
I'm a bit confused, but what part is in oils? I think one of the attachments isn't displaying properly for me.
August 2nd, 2008 #6
Wow beautiful coloring and lighting here. However I do have to agree with the others here. There are some anatomy issues here. Like the legs,and the arm with the bow looks odd. Her head looks a bit to big for her body as well.

Ebony-chan: Thanks. I'll have another look at some of those anatomy issues. I think If I eliminated the chiseled look of her legs that would solve it since I did use my own photo ref for the figure.
rubbadub: Wow! Thanks for the Nox nod! I'm a fan of his work for sure. As for the anatomy issues I'll have to be more careful with my next piece. Thanks for the feedback!
Cepro: Thanks Cepro. Compositionally there's nothing I can do about that at this stage. I'll just move on with lessons learned from this one You've helped me to see more clearly.
rubabdub: Thanks rub. The original oil painting is more or less covered up with digital now. It was a weird backwards learning experience for me . I used Donato's technique of blowing up the original comp on a copy machine and transferring it to masonite using a brayer and matte medium. Since it was my first time doing a real oil illustration I made a lot of mistakes from the beginning so I took the relatively fleshed out painting, photographed it and worked it over in PS. I learned a bunch from that experience and look forward to applying that knowledge to the next piece.
Alex Alexandrov: Thanks for the feedback. The hand was intended to be foreshortened to face the viewer a bit however it seems as though that's not being communicated so I'll need better eyes on the next piece during the process.
shashank: Thank you!!! ...
I think I'll post in the WIP section here for my next piece 'cuz you've all got some great input.
Thanks again,

Hi Ray, it's a good strong piece, and I know that it's too far along for major modifications. Here are a couple of comments to bear in mind for the next one, though.
Everyone seems to agree that the pose is a bit awkward, especially her squat. Part of the problem is that it's built around a straight, vertical line of action that runs down her spine and right between her symmetrical legs. I really love the action of her hair, and I played around with shifting her torso to follow that, so that the entire pose is built around reflected diagonals, with no perpendicular actions. (Horizontals and verticals give stillness and stability, diagonals give action.) Also, I brought her left knee forward so the legs wouldn't mirror each other.
The other crit I have is that some of the forms are verging on overrendered, especially in her face. You could play down those cool center lights quite a bit without losing anything.
Good luck, I look forward to seeing the next one!

Elwell pegged exactly what I saw as the problem with the legs. Other than that, I'm going to add to the praise. Very well painted overall. The composition works really well on its own and as a book cover.

Elwell: Wow! Thanks for the quick sketch Tristan. That's awesome! I totally see what you're mean. That makes perfect sense.

August 4th, 2008 #13
Hey Thanks Alex. I was going for something specific in terms of the character but I think the lesson learned here is to not stick too religiously to my own preconceptions of what 'should' be but rather what looks best.
Yes the class was absolutely life changing. The camaraderie and spirit of purpose was like nothing I'd ever felt before. I'm still having flashbacks of wonderful moments and the genuine warmth of everyone involved. Sign me up for the next one...

Claims available in
Description (OCR text may contain errors)
June 2, 1964 F, E. ROOT 3,135,098
UNDERWATER GARMENT Filed NOV. 3, 1961 INVENTOR. FRANK E. ROOT BY FULWIDER, MATTINGLY s HUNTLEY ATTORNEY United States Patent M 3,135,098 UNDERWATER GARMENT Frank E. Root, Harbor City, Calif., assignor to R .U.D .A., Inc., Compton, Calif., a corporation of California Filed Nov. 3,1961, Ser. No. 150,002 3 Claims. (Cl. 61-70) The present invention relates to garments, but more particularly to garments for underwater use.
The sport of underwater exploration and fishing, which is commonly known as skin diving, has become very popular in recent years. Perhaps the most important single accessory for use in practicing this sport is the jacket or garment worn by the diver. This garment must perform a number of different important functions. For instance, such garment must carry the weights which counterbalance the normal buoyancy of the divers body so as to permit himto move up and down at will within the water. Also, such garment may serve as the mounting means for breathing apparatus for the diver.
Jackets for underwater use must be of such construction as to be firmly fastenable to the body of the diver so that the breathing apparatus and counterbalancing weights are maintained in the proper position relative to the wearers body. Of no less importance, is the requirement that the jacket must be quickly and easily removable for purposes of safety. That is, in the event the jacket becomes entangled with ropes, plant life or other objects within the water, it may become mandatory for the diver to quickly and completely release himself from the jacket.
Prior garments of this general type have been cumbersome to wear and have failed to provide certain desirable functions. For instance, such prior devices have been so constructed as to greatly restrict the breathing movements of the wearer when it is firmly fastened to the wearers body. Also, such prior-devices have not provided' the mandatory safety feature of quick removal to enable the diver to free himself from the garment. Also, prior jackets have not provided convenient and effective weight-receiving pockets for holding the above-described counterbalancing weights.
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a garment for underwater use which overcomes all of the shortcomings of prior devices.
Another object of this invention is to provide a garment for underwater use which can be easily and rapidly removed from" the wearers body.
7 Another object of thepresent invention is to provide a garment as characterized above which although being easily removable, is nonetheless firmly fastenable to the wearers body.
Another object of this invention is to provide a garment as characterized above which can be firmly secured to the torso of the wearers body while still permitting the usual movements'of the wearers body during normal breathing.
Another object of this invention is to provide in a garment for underwater use as characterized above, weightretaining means which are maintained closed by the normal effects of-the weights themselves.
Another object of this invention is to provide a garment as characterized above which affords the wearer the necessary freedom of movement required for swimming through the water.
Another object is to provide a garment as characterized above which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and which is rugged and dependable in operation.
The novel features which I consider characteristic of my invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The device itself, however, both as 3,135,098 Patented June 2, 1964 to its organization and mode of operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood from the following description of specific embodiments when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a diver wearing a garment according to the present invention;
FIGURE 2 is a side elevational view of the garment shown in FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 is a front elevational view of such garment;
FIGURE 4 is a rear elevational view thereof;
FIGURE 5 is a fragmentary perspective view of the bottom rear portion of the garment;
FIGURE 6 is a fragmentary perspective view of the top rear portion of such garment; and
FIGURE 7 is a fragmentary sectional view taken substantially along line 7-7 of FIGURE 3.
Like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
Referring to FIGURE 1 of the drawings, the embodiment chosen for illustration of the present invention is shown on a diver 10 and is identified generally with the numeral 12. The diver is also shown wearing a diving cap 14, a face mask 16, and a pair of fins or flippers 18. As is well understood by those persons skilled in the art, the face mask 16 protects part of the divers face, particularly his eyes, while affording transparent means through which the diver may see the surrounding area. Needless to say, mask 16 is made to conform to the divers face and is provided with water-tight sealing means to prevent water from getting between the mask and his face. The swim fins 18 are used, of course, to propel the diver through the water with an appropriate kicking action.
As shown most clearly in the other figures of the drawings, the garment or jacket 12 is in the form of a vest formed of heavy duty mildew-resistant canvas having left and right front panels 20 and 22, respectively, joined to a rear panel 24. The longitudinally extending forward edge margins of the front panels are free, the rearward edge margins thereof being appropriately sewed to the rear panel to provide arm holes 26 and 28. All of the free edges of the garment may be provided with suitable hemming tape as shown at 30 to provide a more finished appearance to the garment and to prevent fray ing of the exposed edges. The lower portion of the rear panel 24 is extended as, at 24a to afford additional protection for the lowerback of the wearer, andto afford means for accommodating the proper size oxygen tank or other breathing apparatus as will hereinafter become more apparent.
Fastening means in the form of a pair of transversely disposed upper straps 32 and 34, and a pair of transversely disposed lower straps 36 and 38 is provided for firmly fastening the garment to the torso of the wearers body. The straps 32 and 36 may be provided with metallic end pieces 32a and 26a respectively to prevent fraying of the ends of such straps and to facilitate their insertion into the respective buckles to be hereinafter described.
Each of the straps 34 and 38 is provided with a suitable buckle as shown at 40 and 42 respectively. Each buckle is comprised of a pair of annular or ring-like members which may be circular or square in shape, and may be formed out of metal, plastic or any other suitable material.
As shown at 44, rivets may be employed for firmly attaching the straps 32, 34, 36 and 38 to the front panels of the garment. This, of course, is in addition to the usual stitching employed for such purpose.
Each of the front panels 20 and 22 is provided with a pair of weight-receiving pockets. The pockets 46 and 48 on the left front panel 28 are identical with the pockets 50 and 52 on the right front panel 22. Accordingly, only the pockets 46 and 48 will be described herein in detail.
Each of the pockets 46 and 48 is generally rectangular in shape and is made of heavy duty mildew-resistant canvas. The pocket 46 is formed with a front member 46a and a rear member 46b which are sewn together at their side and bottom edges to provide the pocket. The upper portion of the front member 46a is sewn along its upper edgemargin to the left front panel 20. tothereby provide a pocket opening 460 facing said panel member.
In like manner, the lower pocket 48 is provided with front and rear member's 48a and 48b stitched together as shown, the upper portion of member 48a being firmly sewed to the front left panel 20 immediately beneath the pocket 46 as shown most clearly in FIGURE 7 of the drawings. Thus, pocket 48 is also provided with an opening 48c which faces panel 20.
Attached to rear panel 24 in a generally cylindricallyshaped housing 54 formed of heavy duty mildew-resistant canvas and defining a longitudinally extending open-ended enclosure. Such housing is rigidly secured to panel 24 by a suitable sewing operation along the opposite side edges thereof.
As shown most clearly in FIGURE of the drawings, a Y-shaped strap arrangement 56 is fastened across the bottom of housing 54 to provide an adjustable end wall therefor. Strap arrangement 56 is provided with end portions 58 and 60 which are interposed between the lower end 5411 of housing 54 and the lower portion 24a of rear panel 24. Means such as rivets 62 may be employed in addition to the usual stitching to retain end portions 58 and 60 in their assembled positions.
Strap arrangement 56 further includes an adjustment strap 64 which may be provided with a metallic or plastic end piece 64a. Strap 64 cooperates with a buckle 66 mounted relative to housing 54 by a loop 68 of strap material. Buckle 66 is comprised of a pair of annular members similar to the buckles 40 and 42 on the front of garment 12.
As shown most clearly in FIGURES 2, 4 and 6, a pair of straps 70 and,72 are provided across the upper end of housing 54. Said straps are fastened between the opposite edges of the upper end 54b of housing 54 and the rear panel 24 as shown most clearly in FIGURE 6. The free end of strap 70 is provided with a metallic or plastic end portion 70a while the free end of strap 72 is provided with a buckle 74 comprising a pair of annular rlngs.
A loop of canvas material is sewn on one side of housing 54 as shown at 54c for receiving the emergency actuating lever for the breathing apparatus as will hereinafter become more apparent.
Fixed to the straps 36 and 38 and depending therefrom as shown most clearly in FIGURE 2, is a plurality of game loops 75 to which fish or other underwater objects may be attached.
The garment 12 is particularly well adapted for underwater use, and is attached to the torso of the diver in a quick and easy manner. The breathing apparatus in the form of a tank 76 of pressurized oxygen is inserted into the housing 54 on the rear panel 24 of the garment, the pair of straps 70 and 72 being connected across the top of the tank to hold it against strap arrangement 56 across the lower end, which is tightened or slackened to adjustably raise and lower the tank 76. The. emergency lever 76a of the breathing apparatus is inserted through the loop 540 on the side of housing 54 to be within easy reach of the diver. Such lever 76a releases a reserve supply of oxygen afterthe main supply within the tank 76 has beenconsumed.
The garment 12 may then be. attached tothe divers body as shown in FIGURE 1, the pairs of straps 32 and 34 and 36 and 38 being fastened across the chest of. the
wearer. The buckles 40 and 42 are of the type wherein the free strap is initially inserted through both buckles and thereafter is looped over the top ring or annular member for insertion under the bottom member. However, to afford quick release. of the garment in the event of an emergency, the straps 32 and 36 are reversely folded back on themselves prior to being looped over the upper annular member and inserted under the lower member. Due to this arrangement, a quick pull or jerk on the ends of straps 32 and 36 causes such straps to become disengaged from the respective buckles. Thus a single pull on each, strap causesit to be completely released from its buckle. This feature, together with the fact that the entire garment, including. the breathing apparatus and counterbalancin'g weights, is quiteheavy, permits the garment to fall away from the diver. to enable him to escape the existing peril.
A further feature of the present invention is the provision of straps 32 and34 such. that they are not joined at the rear panel 24 but rather are brought merely to approximately the respective outer edges of the housing 54. This provides a section of rear, panel 24 between such straps to provide a predeterminedamount of flexibility for accommodating the usual expansion and contraction of the divers chest as he breathes. This feature is particularly desirable when using self-contained breathing apparatus as for instance tank 76 which affords pressurized oxygen to the diver 10 through suitable flexible conduits 76b. The pressurized oxygen causes the divers chest to expand as compared to his chest size when the garment was put on out of the water. Thus in view of this initial expansion and the usual breathing movements thereafter, itis necessary to have a predeter mined amount of flexibility the fastening. means for the garment 12.
It may or may not be desirableto separate straps 36 and 38 at the rearpanel 24 depending upon the particular persons build and the way in which the garment 12 fits his torso. That is, such straps would not have to be separated at rear panel 24 if they did not restrict his breathing movements. On the other hand, if such restriction was encountered, a predetermined gap should be 'left between the straps 36 and 38 to take advantage of the flexibility of the canvas material.
Buoyancy Weights should be inserted into pockets 46, 48, 50 and 52. This may be done either before or after the garment has been fastened to the wearers body. Insertion of the weights is accomplished by individually tilting the pockets upwardly. so as to expose the openings thereof. The weights are then inserted upwardly into the pockets, after which they may be returned to their original positions. After this hasbeen accomplished, the weights within each pocket will keep it closed due to the fact that the opening thereof will be facing the respective front panel of the. garment. Thus the weights are prevented from falling out or from being inadvertentlypushed out of the pockets. In order to remove the weights, the aboveexplained operation is merely reversed. That is, the pockets are again tilted upwardly to expose the openings thereof to permit the weights to be removed.
It is thus seen that the present invention provides a garment or jacket forunderwater use which does not require straps between the legs of the wearer which might prove to be cumbersome and uncomfortable. Also, the present invention provides a garment which affords all of the desired functions forunderwater use.
Although I have shown and described certain specific embodiments in my invention I am fullyaware that many modifications thereof are possible. My invention, therefore, is not to be restricted except insofar as is necessitated by the prior art and by the spirit of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A garment for underwater use comprising:
a main portion adapted to fit about the torso of the wearer;
and a weight pocket located on the outside of said main a vest having right and left front panels; and a pair of upwardly open weight pockets hingedly attached at their outwardly disposed upper portions to the outside of said panels, respectively, whereby weights inserted into said pockets are gravity removable by outwardly and upwardly pivoting the unattached remainders of said pockets.
A garment to support weights and breathing apparatus for underwater use, said garment comprising:
vest having a pair of longitudinally extending free margins at the front thereof;
pair of upwardly open weight pockets hingedly attached at their outwardly disposed upper portions to the outside of the front of said vest whereby weights inserted into said pockets are gravity removable by outwardly and upwardly pivoting the unattached remainders of said pockets;
and quick-release fastening means attached to said vest and including a first transverse strap adjacent the upper portion of one of said edge margins, a second transverse strap adjacent the lower portion of one of said edge margins, first and second generally annular buckles for each of said first and second straps and located adjacent the upper and lower portions of the edge margins opposite said ones of said edge margins, each of said first and second straps being of a length sufiicient to permit it to be reversely folded to form a loop insertable through the adjacent said first buckle, thence through the adjacent said second buckle, and thence reversely foldable and insertable through the adjacent said first buckle whereby the wearer of said vest may quickly effect separaration of said free edge margins by pulling on each said loop and allowing the weight of the breathing apparatus and the weights to strip away said vest.

Audi Allroad Quattro Problem Report
Audi Allroad Quattro Various Probelms Caused by Clogged Plenum Tray Drain
(17 reports)
Clogged drains can allow rainwater to accumulate in the plenum tray (at the base of the windshield). The water may leak into the vehicle's interior, brake booster, or electrical components, which can lead to major problems. Our technicians recommend keeping the tray clear of leaves, pine needles, and other debris.

I became aware of the problem when I heard water sloshing around in the right rear floor area. Next, brake warning lights, then trouble shifting. Audi dealer estimated damage to "control modules" over 8,000.00 Insurance evaluated as total loss due to design flaw. Not the first design flaw in this car. - Visitor

First my abs, ESP and suspension light came on. Then my check engine. Soon after that I noticed the tranny slipping and shifting hard. Then the almighty brake light came on and kept flashing. I researched it and I did see notes about water getting in, burning didn't think that was the case. Until later that afternoon when I stopped suddenly and I heard the sloshing. I had about 3 inches of rain water. It was the drain over by the battery. Filled with leaves and various debris. We unclogged it drained the water. But low and behold the car filled back up on the passenger side. As we speak I am stuck in a parking lot as my tranny will only allow me to go about 40 mph - Visitor

The interior of my car filled with several feet of water during heavy rains. I found out that water accumulated in the plenum tray due to clogged drains from leaf debris that had accumulated. It took a month and $6k for the dealer to repair. They refused to cover it with warranty. Audi later lost a class action lawsuit due to the matter. I am done with Audi. - Visitor

anyone found the drain holes? can I get to them if I jack the car up, or drive up on ramps? - mr mak
I discovered water in my cabin area (left hand side) front and rear after there had been a large hail storm. There was approx 20cm of water sloshing around and I could not work out how ir had got there as all the windows and sunroof were shut. After some web searched I found that this was due to the drain blocked due hail which caused the heavy rain to flood into the cabin area. - Visitor

So, you thought the lineup was already heavyweight material… now prepare for an ee-education!
On May 29th eastern electrics presents NINE HOURS of supersonic superheroics from Bloc, Deviation and mulletover – with a lineup that'll knock your socks off!
This May eastern electrics brings you a rock solid roster of artists for their bank holiday Sunday marathon. As if DJ Koze, James Holden, Martyn, Loefah and Braiden weren't enough, the eastern electrics boys are firing on all cylinders with this one, adding Actress, Virgo Four, The Bug, Lone and Clive Henry to the already veritable mix.
eastern electrics deserves its status as one of London's don't-miss events, delivering unrivalled lineups and unmissable events three times a year. Their focus is on bringing together some of the finest emerging talent in electronic music – and making one hell of a noise. And helping them make this May 29th event noisier than ever are…
Having just turned seven, mulletover is the night that just keeps on giving. This May, Room 1 hosts a wide-ranging, ambient four-hour marathon set from Hamburg genre-splitting DJ Koze and a set from Circo Loco resident and rabble-rouser Clive Henry, all wrapped up with a set from mulletover man Geddes.
Bloc tore the festival season a new pone with its biggest ever event in March – and now the Bloc-ers are proving they can keep on keeping on with a powerful lineup in Room 2. In-demand super-producer James Holden is joined by The Bug – Kevin Martin's bass badman alter-ego offering a lesson in dub history. Forward-thinking dubstepper Martyn brings some atmosphere to the evening's proceedings, and one-to-watch warped-out wunderkind Lone – Matt Cutler to his mates – completes this enormous thumper of a lineup in the second room.
Aaaaaand newcomers to eastern electrics Benji B's Deviation are jumping in at the deep end of bass, presenting a mammoth roster, with commanding experimentalist producer and DJ Actress, Chicago house legends Virgo Four, innovative undergrounder-coming-up Loefah, genre-jumping Braiden and 1Xtra's tastemaker – and Deviation daddy – Benji B & MC Judah in Room 3.
eastern electrics is always a night to remember. Grab your £18 Saver ticket while they last.
May 29th – just be there!

Mumbai, Aug 17 (IANS) Anything for my brother Tusshar, says Ekta Kapoor who made an exception for him by appearing on the Rakhi special of Zee TV's music reality show 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa' to promote his forthcoming 'C Kkompany'.
So far Ekta has only produced TV software. She has never been on reality show before. The episode was shot Wednesday and telecast on Saturday.
'The things one has to do for one's brother. But seriously 'C Kkompany' is an important film for Tusski. Normally I'd do nothing to promote our films. But this one is for my kid brother,' Ekta, who has also produced the film, told IANS
'When he (Tusshar) asked me to make an appearance in the film, I agreed. Then I made an exception and appeared on the reality show with him,' added Ekta.
As Ekta always says there're only two men in the whole world - her father and brother - who can make her dance around their little finger or dance on television reality shows.
Apart from Ekta, papa Jeetendra also went all out to make sure that Tusshar's in-house production 'C Kkompany' is properly promoted. While Ekta appeared on 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa', papa Jeetendra featured with Tusshar on Salman Khan's game show 'Dus Ka Dum'.
Aug 29 is important for Ekta as Tusshar's 'C Kkompany' is releasing and on the same day her cousin Abhishek Kapoor's directorial debut 'Rock On' is also opening.
'Tusshar has a release. My cousin Gattu (Abhishek Kapoor) has directed 'Rock On!' that too releases Aug 29 as Tusshar's 'C Kkompany',' said.
Ekta says she will take Rakhi gift after the release of the films.
'Both my brothers will have to gift me something special for Raksha Bandhan. And the quality of the gift would depend on whose film is a bigger hit,' she said.
'C Kkompany' was earlier supposed to release Aug 22, but was postponed due to a heavy traffic of releases that Friday.

Also for your insert/update/delete/... you can use linq or a controller which calls stored-procedures.

Originally written on RedSoxLife | Last updated 6/20/13
Eric D. Schabell Contributing Writer If you had to choose a closer right now, replacing Andrew Bailey, what would you do? We have seen the lack of focus. Have we reached Closerpocalypse yet, suggesting it is time to put the 9th inning into the hands of Andrew Miller? It seems that Koji Uehara might be the guy to lean on, or is he? Luckily the General Manager has the closer issue on his radar. I just wonder if there is really any need to jettison good prospects to fill the closer roll on some trade move. As I have mentioned before, I think it is time for a situational closer setup. In this setup the manager can choose the pitcher for the 9th based on how the game is going, who is fresh, and who matches up best against the last three opposing hitters. The up side of this setup is that Andrew Bailey would get some time to get back into whatever state he needs to be in to stop throwing up in the zone, to start attacking the strike zone, and convince the Red Sox he is the man to c...

Playing with toys??
Comments (9)
My LO plays with toys quite a bit - she's 16 weeks today. We had to kind of get her started. We would dangle things in front of her, and wrap her fingers around a rattle, that sort of thing. I then got her a play gym and she immediately started pulling on those rings and now she loves it. Your boy just might not be ready for that yet, but you can get him started by putting things in his hands and letting him hold them and wave them around.
I got my Lo an o ball rattle and that's what started it! They sell them at walmart they are easy to grasp she is 16 weeks and grabs for everything now! Give her time and she will want everything and want to put it all in her mouth lol

Big Gulps, huh? Welp, see you later.
I second the oball. Lo had no interest in any toys. I got him one of thos and he is obsessed! And it led to finally reaching for other toys.
Dd is already grabbing, bringing things to her mouth and playing (ie crinkling a toy over and over).
They are all different. To this day I get surprised at how ds will go to an old toy and suddenly start playing with it even though he ignored it when new.

"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."

You have some very good advice so far. I would recommend talking with a CPA regarding tax consequences...not only for you, but potentially for your son.
My experience is that most people act first and try to solve problems AFTER the fact. The BEST way is to get the advice of competent professionals to avoid future problems.
Yes ,you can, or course this will not be viewed as an "arms length transaction". You and your son might also want to check with your respective tax persons to make sure there are no tax ramfications as a result of the sale.

We are also taking for granted you know your homes true worth. Quite often Sellers percieve their homes value higher than it really is. I would recommend you get an independent appraisal to determine the "gift" amount. This is one time where you don't want to press too much all the wonderful improvements to your home. The lower the home appraisal the less the gift.
Good luck

PS: How long have you owned the home? Has it been a rental or have you lived there? You may have some tax payment implications associated with the sale of the home, so you might want to look into that to make sure you have the information you need to make good decisions and to ensure the transaction goes as well as you want.

Rated 3.9 out of 5 by 487 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Christy22 Nice, clean hotel!! This hotel was the cleanest hotel we've ever stayed. We checked in and everyone was pleasant and helpful. The pool and hot tub-GREAT! Things to work on; Coffee shop should be open throughout the day. The service in the restaurant needs to be dealt with. The waitress in the bar area was too busy sitting at the bar flirting with the men, we had to get the bartender to help us. Nice bartender! Overall, I would stay here again, but would eat elsewhere for dinner. February 16, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by CBIMeeting feedback from Feb 2013 The property was lovely and staff were pleasant at all times. My issues were with access for room service on both days. I experienced a very long wait before the phone was answered for food orders. I was also disappointed at finding a dirty sock by my window curtain and used napkin under the desk. February 14, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by BusinessTraveler101 Location, location, location... The Sheraton Society Hill is in the perfect location for the business traveller and casual tourist. It sits in the heart of the historic district and waterfront areas of Philadelphia for great sightseeing and restaurants, while being convenient to the major highways for the business traveller. I stay at the Sheraton Society Hill evey time I come to Philadelphia. February 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Steve55 WI Fi Charge The hotel was fine but in this day and age you charge $10 for wi fi and that is a deal breaker February 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by wfong Excellent service I have been staying at this hotel for 15 years and the best part is the service. It is in a good location, close to sights and restaurants, with nice rooms. But the best is the level of service, from the car valets to the bar/restaurant personnel, service is always top quality. They even remember you after a few visits. I usually recommend this hotel to people coming to Philadelphia. February 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Beth Hotel exceeded our expectations Hotel was great. Club floor room was excellent. Club floor breakfast, snacks, and hors d'ouevres were very good. February 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MiniMoon2013 Worry Free Weekend The staff at the Society Hill Sheraton did everything they could to make our stay memorable and enjoyable, from the valet to the front desk, everything exceeded our expectations. Thank you!! January 29, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by PhillyNewYorker Good Short Stay Hotel is nice. Very Sophisticated and Business Professional feel to it. January 22, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by roo2ny great location and good hotel. only valet parking is poor nice location, good room and restaurant. Gym and hotel staff were very helpful. Only challenge is the Valet parking is overused and hence slow with average 20+mins to get car. January 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jackie79 This hotel is very clean and comfortable While staying at this hotel we had almost no complaints. The most negative was the wait time for food on the morning of our departure. The restaurant was small and couldn't seat us, so we took to the "coffee counter", and had to again wait maybe 10 more minutes for somebody to wait on us. Once somebody showed up we were satisfied, although it was expensive for 2 bagels, a juice, and a coffee, the food was good. The wait time was terrible. This was a day when the hotel may not have expected much business, as it was Christmas eve, but if the place is open, there should be somebody there to aid customers. The cleanliness of the hotel was good. The pool needed cleaning, as there were random pieces of black paint (?) floating around. No fan in the bathroom is another negative, and I would have been more satisfied had the hotel accepted my tax exempt card. The bed was very comfortable and the room had adequate space. When having dinner at the restaurant, the food and service was excellent! Aside from that we very much enjoyed our stay at this hotel, and we appreciated all the amenities and extras. January 16, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by sparky08 2 mishaps 2 great results The bed is very comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly from the kitchen waiters, bartender to the front desk. They were all very professional and helpful. On my first night I my room lock was inoperable. The FD clerk called security to fix it and apologized for the inconvenience. I was starving so he gave me a box lunch and a free drink coupon. The lock was not repaired but the security staff was waiting for me to let me in. January 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by HH13 Coffee Hotel and staff were excellant. However for those of us who drink our coffee black, use a different coffee in the rooms. Starbucks is terrible unless you are loading it up with a lot of cream and sugar. January 14, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by majdi69 Food Service Should be 24 Hrs I had to wait for food delivery (after hotel kitchen is closed at 11:00 PM) for almost 1.5 hrs. It was a bike delivery and food vas very cold. This will make thinks twice about staying at your hotel if I am on a business trip (and working late into the night). January 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by srisk New years visit Great venune & location to be able to walk around town & attend the wonderful fireworks. only issue is checking out is quick & easy but New Years day retreiving Valet parked car you must be prepared for a wait. Guys were hustleing but everyone is checking out. January 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Vanda19 bad start to the new year We stayed at this hotel for the New Year's eve festivities. The room was hot and if you tried to lower the heat the air conditioning came on, in short freeze or boil. In the morning we had to wait over one hour in order to get our car from the valet parking. They knew they had a full house but they only staffed one attendant for the valet parking. They do not offer self parking and being in the city is not easy to park on the street. We liked the dinner and dancing the night before but will not go back next year. I called to complain and they did not return my call. really disappointed. January 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by patty65 desk assistance The desk assistance was excellent. I needed an early shuttle pick-up which was promptly arranged. January 2, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by CarrollGardensMom A Society Hill gem, great staff and amenities, near all A second visit to this Society Hill gem was worth coming back to! Great staff, amenities, comfortable Club Floor lounge, nice bar. This hotel is a short walk to all attractions and is the perfect hotel when visiting Phlly. Great for all looking for excellent value and all that a great hotel has to offer. We will return again. December 30, 2012

Rated 4 out of 5 by jabber56 Great wedding weekend We had a number of families staying the weekend for a local wedding and all had a great time. The hotel is very close to many great restaurants and local historical attractions. All had a great time and we would recommend using the hotel as a base for a fun weekend. December 21, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Nan55 Great location We were able to walk to most of the places we were going to. Hotel has wonderful beds! December 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Airnorton Just what I'd expect with SPG! We went to Phily for an Eagles game and stayed at the Sheraton Society Hill. It was just blocks from the subway, so it was easy to get to and from the game. The following day, we were able to see many sites in Phily before returning to the hotel to retrieve our car and go on our way. December 15, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by joiryde Comfortable While a short stay, it was comfortable stay. I wish I could have stayed a little longer to take full advantage of all this property has to offer. December 15, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Navy2012 Poor housekeeping At check in the staff was friendly and courteous. I was pleased we could check in early due to an early flight arrival. However, this is where the breakdown starts. The bathroom floor was covered in hair from the previous occupants. The table beside the chair was covered in dust. I particulary notice these issues due to allergies I have. Housekeeping awoke me at 615am knocking on door across hall delivering towels. December 12, 2012

When a new coach takes over a football team, many players feel they have to prove themselves all over again. For Redskins kicker Kai Forbath, that pressure mounted as Jay Gruden became coach of the Redskins and the team promptly selected a rookie kicker in the 2014 NFL Draft. Forbath's success as an accurate field goal kicker came under Mike Shanahan, and his shorter kickoffs have been an issue most of his two years with Washington.
On Thursday night, with a very public battle brewing between Forbath and rookie Zach Hocker, the incumbent did himself no favors. Forbath missed a 46-yard field goal, and compounded his problem by sending a kickoff out of bounds.
"Not my best game, by far," Forbath said Thursday night. Visibly frustrated, the veteran knew to move one from the performance against New England and look for the next opportunity.
"First game, got the miss out of the way though. That's how I look at it," Forbath said. "I can only improve from here."

The rookie Hocker made both of his field goal attempts, but struggled to kick the ball out of the end zone. Strong kickoffs were part of the allure for the Redskins to draft Hocker as Forbath does not have the strongest leg off the tee.
Hocker did turn some heads with a solid open field tackle during a kickoff return. The rookie showed good form on the tackle, enough that the veterans congratulated the rookie on the sideline. But Hocker is in Washington to boom kicks, not make tackles.
"The hangtime was OK, the tackle was cool, but one touchback out of three kickoffs [isn't] going to cut it if I'm going to try to make this team," Hocker said. "That was the main reason I was brought in to compete."
The Redskins coach commented on the kicking situation after the game, and it seemed he scored the first round of competition for Hocker.
"We kicked off one time out of bounds and missed the field goal," Gruden said. "Zach had a great couple good kickoffs and a good tackle and made a field goal. Kai, you know, he had a kickoff out of bounds like I said, so that's a decision that's going to come after the fourth preseason game."
Forbath knows the pressure of competing for his job; this is not the first time the Redskins have pushed him. In his two year career with the 'Skins, Forbath has made more than 87 percent of his field goal attempts. He impressed his first season with Washington, making 94 percent of field goals as the RG3-led Redskins made a playoff run. But last season, that percentage dropped to nearly 82 percent.
And there remains the problem of kickoffs for Forbath.
Washington must improve its special teams kick coverage, and one way of doing that is with more touchbacks on kickoffs. Forbath said he worked on kickoffs throughout the offseason, yet what stood out Thursday was the kickoff that went out of bounds, setting the Patriots up with the ball at the 40-yard-line.
"Unfortunately I tried to kick one of them a little bit too hard tonight and got around on it," Forbath said. "We were trying to directional it. That's what this is for, working on those. The more you do kickoffs the better you get."
Kicking in the NFL is a tough position; good things are the expectation, and misses and shanks are what gets talked about. On the first preseason game of 2014, Hocker outplayed Forbath, but the veteran knows he has shown what he can do in the past, and will have more opportunities this preseason.
"If you look at the history of actual season kicks the percentage has been pretty good," Forbath said. "I believe that was my first miss in preseason in two years. They happen, I'm glad I got it out of the way before the actual season started. I'll just keep working."

Must have bottle!
I love this bottle and use it at work and outdoors! It is very durable. I've thrown one off a 100ft cliff full of water and and it didn't do anything to the bottle! My friend shot his with a shotgun and it took 2 shots to crack it!
I wound recommend only using water in it though and don't let the water get to hot while leaving it in your car or it will start to smell like a fishbowl.
