The U.S. Supreme Court announced last week that it will hear cases on same-sex marriage later this year. The cases come from four states — Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee — where state statutory or constitutional prohibitions on same-sex marriage were ruled unconstitutional by lower federal court judges but were then reinstated by a federal appeals court on a 2-to-1 vote.

Reports commissioned by a state legislature are famous fodder for recycling bins.
But a recent report prepared for the Vermont Legislature promises to be widely read and debated. That's because it's about a topic with lots of buzz in every sense of the word: Should Vermont legalize marijuana?
We've already decriminalized possession of less than an ounce. Now Vermont is seriously debating whether to join four states and the District of Columbia by fully legalizing the wily weed.
This is a brief report of the beginning of the Legislative session and I thought you might like to get information on how the Legislature starts and what we do in committees.
I am writing to respectfully disagree with Rep. Warren Van Wyck's assessment of the protests in the Statehouse on Jan. 8.
So, here we are in a nation that had its beginnings with the likes of Sam Adams and the Sons of Liberty, and in a state that had its foundations laid by the outlaw Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys, and some of us are insulted and concerned that the Statehouse might witness further scenes of "ill-behaved protesters?"
The time has come to take seriously the cleanup of our streams, rivers and lakes. They are the lifeblood of Vermont and they are the ecological treasures of all Vermonters.
As temperatures continue to warm and the peak flows of storm events increase, the negative impacts of sediment and nutrient deposition will accelerate. That Gov. Shumlin has placed the cleanup on his priority list for his third term is a great step forward.
A recent study from the Solar Foundation found that Vermont had more solar jobs per capita in 2013 than any other state. This is particularly impressive when you consider how the solar industry has thrived across the country, providing plenty of competition. The numbers for 2014 aren't in yet, but based on what I've seen this year, Vermont will likely maintain its No. 1 spot in the rankings.
It was a privilege to be in Montpelier on Wednesday, Jan. 14 among those speaking at the press conference in support of a new state Senate bill to require universal background checks on gun sales in Vermont. This highly focused legislation will extend to gun shows and online sales the same background check requirements already in place for licensed gun retailers.
This week's writer is Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin.
Editor's note: The following was submitted as an open letter to the Cornwall selectboard.
First I want to thank you for the hundreds of hours of work you have put in trying to deal with the proposed gas pipeline issue. All of this was imposed upon you by Vermont Gas, who with their limitless resources have used their ability to deprive you of so much of your personal life to try to wear you down to acquiescence to their proposed pipeline.

text: Spa is superb and available to all guests. Food and drink service ordered pool side at spa or at family pool. Adult spa pool immediately adjacent to wonderful; spa with "Experiential" shower room with about 20 nozzles at various places, whirlpool tub with powerful jets, steam room and sauna. Service is impeccable at every level and all the time- very consistent. Kyle at the front desk especially stood out even in a field of such superlative staff. This is the place to stay in winter but it is also good for some pampering in summer even though about 15 mins from Lake. Great hiking and mountain biking right outside the door. Manzanita restaurant was excellent as well with great food and attentive staff.

... that was so easy to get lost in. The names on the maps were always different to the actual streets. One thing I perhaps found the most annoying was the bikes. You forever were hearing this annoying ring of the bells, unfortunately coming from Melbourne, I don't think it made for the best tolerance for them. A small group of us had decided to explore the city together. Emily, Megan and a New Zealander called Luke. He was quite shy so I think us girls managed to get ...

I was expecting this as the check in did say 3pm and we were a little early. So we dropped our bags and went for a wander. Mainz was a really nice town, we wandered down the river not really knowing what we were looking for, but we found some nice churches and there was a very nice open mall where ...

Remember when I told you to keep in mind the friends that we met on the train from London to Paris? Turns out, they were on the same bar crawl as us. It was a great night of enjoying the city, lots of free drinks, and having fun with our new friends!
Amsterdam was great to our group, but alas we must go. Next stop: Berlin.

I don't feel the expectation of indie devs to build games for the Ouya with ~$100000 budget seems weird. It makes more sense for the budget of a bigger PC title being ported to android, but not for something being launched on Android micro-console with an audience of about ~100,000 people tops first for a 6-month exclusivity period. It just feels like it is a way to kill a dev's first project.

I've been out since last year. Made a clean break to PC
I mean, I know he has an interesting grasp of the english language, but the only thing that comes to mind is his clash with Will Smith.
well, first off, the sales haven't been that great. Secondly, between the gems, quick combos, and three-hit combo that does a tag out, the game isn't tournament friendly. The gems can fortunately be removed from play, but the process to do it at home is excruciating. I've honestly given up attempting to. Quick combos in that game is almost the equivalent of Easy option back when Capcom ported fighters to the GBA and gamecube (on gba the big offender was SFA3, on Gamecube it was CvSNK 2(?)}. Quick combos cannot be disabled in the game. It is considered cheap to use in tournaments because it requires no skill and usually upsets the tournament players when it happens to them accidentally. The three hit combos have the same issue as well as the quick combos, but this is in even less control of the player. Similar reasoning is why the Blazblu push never happened when the last version of that game came out.
Also sales. I say this knowing that I don't have full stats for the game. I can tell from two sources that it is shit. Vgchartz says that it sold .61 million units worldwide on all platforms. Amazon ranks the ps3 version at #952 and the 360 version at #1152~. As a comparison for amazon (their algorithim is wierd. deals with number of units recently sold and other stuff), Street fighter IV ps3 vanilla is ranked around 800 and Halo 3 is currently 192. While not a definitive answer, I'm sure people can find more circumstantial evidence with other retailers (like the current price it is selling for).
Regardless, the number of sales for a game typically gives an idea just how much participation will be in a particular tournament. The obscene turnout was for SFIV AE and UMVC3 (ok, mainly UMVC3). MK9 and KoF13 had decent turnout. VF5FS was mainly foriegn (since the game just landed on US consoles) and SFxT was barely existent for other reasons.
DLC characters
The typical evo judgement call is to make sure there is enough time of the game being out to determine if characters are broken or not for tournament play. E.G. Mortal Kombat 9 had Evo participation, but most of the DLC characters came out in short notice of the tournament. Those characters weren't permitted for use that year. Those characters had enough exposure by this year to permit them for play. It also doesn't really matter if they are DLC or not. For the KoF XIII tournament, all characters including DLC were allowed. When SSFIITHDR had a tournament at Evo, Akuma was banned outright.
Pandora Mode
As I'm sure some has eluded to in previous comments, the matches often lead to timeouts. One would think that Pandora mode would help counter timeouts, but this isn't MvC3. Characters don't move that fast and it isn't easy to chase down an opponent.
That is about all I can input without being redundant or being super longer. I'll end this with a slightly different question: why was this game even at Evo? I've seen the fgc go on full assault after the easy option riddled Blazblue update. To even get SFxT running suitably for tournaments despite the tournament mode update takes a lot of prepwork before and it is expected that players will manually disregard another featureset of the game. It isn't even just that, this game is panned by not only tournament players, but casual players as well. It is just all around bad news. I kinda laughed with Seth Killian talked at Evo about being happy that the tournament hasn't sold out, but by including SFxT it did sell out IMO. It compromised the FGCs preferences just to get a low selling game to stream two matches on finals day.
I don't remember what year. I just know the first game I got into was Duck Tales for the NES. This was followed by Oregon Trail and some little stuff here and there. My first console was the Genesis.

With MLB rosters expanding on Sept. 1, we're about to get a look at the future up in Philly.
Maikel Franco - ranked 17th by Baseball America among MLB prospects before this season - was brought in on Monday as part of the Phillies' September call-ups. Franco is the Phillies' third-ranked prospect and could become the youngest position player to appear for the franchise since Jimmy Rollins debuted in 2000.
The Phillies signed Franco out of the Dominican Republic back in 2010 for $100,000. In 520 minor league games across five seasons he held a .775 OPS with 66 home runs and 338 RBI.
Franco, 22, struggled early this season at Triple-A Lehigh with a .209 average, five home runs and a .585 OPS through 78 games. But then he had a talk with team advisor Charlie Manuel and afterwards hit .324 with 11 home runs and a .922 OPS in July and August.
Franco plays both corner infield positions and is known mainly for his power. He is listed 6-foot-1 and 180 pounds.
If the Phillies are going to return to prominence any time soon, they will need some of their younger prospects to pan out. We'll see what Franco's got.

I consider myself open-minded, emotionally grounded, a bit sarcastic and cynical but with a humorous slant (unintentional, of course, since I'm apparently anything but humorous when I try to humor others). No one has labeled me the "shy and retiring type," but that doesn't make me loud and obnoxious, either; I'm never timid about sharing my colorful opinion mostly because I love argument (but I detest quarreling). I'm a city guy through and through--without a doubt, I favor strolling down a street with museums and shops and restaurants so I can blaze my own trail through a metropolis rather than through a nature scene. As for the ONE I'm seeking, I gravitate towards women who are highly intelligent, extroverted, and humorous--I avoid those who are conservative in their values and beliefs and attitudes. I also am drawn to slender women--hair color, eye color, skin color mean nothing to me; brains, humor, high spirits, and a slender frame works for me!
I like Cats, Dogs
San Francisco, where I once lived, remains one of my favorite places on the planet, but I have a sneaky suspicion places like Spain, France, and Italy will thrill me to no end, as well. I love NYC, but not in mid-summer. California coast--love it.
Classic rock, jazz, classical--all good. I love to cook--I'm mostly vegetarian but will eat anything at Indian, Japanese, Italian, French restaurants. Strolling down the boulevard, driving up the coast, visiting museums, funky coffee houses...
For fun, I like having...fun. Stomping through rain puddles is fun. Holding hands is fun. Stomping through rain puddles while holding hands is fun.
I am literature teacher, so my "last reads" are usually the novels, plays, short stories, and poems I teach. I love watching films and lean towards "meaty" ones that have something to say but can use really stupid ones to escape.

I am still designing mine. I am pretty determined to maintain some significant open cargo space. The objective is to be able to take at least one bike in the load, along with other stuff. I do want to always keep some stuff handy though, lots of spares and tools as well as a freshwater tank and other goodies. I am likely going to end up with somethign resembling a service body, but this is still very much in the works.
For your situation, I say just build something out of wood with some cushioning that goes up to the wheel wells, with removable sections. I have used a toyota that had this combination with a Wildernest Popup Tent. I do not think they make those anymore. Post pics when you finish!

Depending on how you support your sleeping area/bed in the back, you could put a drawer/slide or two of them (if you have a center support). There are some pretty strong bearings out there that would let you could use to build some sliders to load up the drawers and hold the weight securely.

i like the idea of having a platform over a rolling shelf or 2, but last time i checked, those seem kinda pricey.
the other idea i had was to have a 2 piece platform. each side would be half the width of the bed, and would swing down from the side and meet in the middle to form a full width platform. there would have to be some way to lock them together, and some sort of support so they wouldnt sag once my weight is on them. this would grant me easy access to the supplies underneath, and would also make loading and unloading easier. this would also allow everything to be pulled out, and have the platform raised up to allow for large items when the cap is still on. ideally, i would built the platforms into the cap somehow, so i could take it all off in one piece.

Why not build the support structure, all attached to the bed, then just have slats of plywood that would be placed on top and act as your sleeping platform. You could even have little notches carved into the supports that would hold the plywood in place and you wouldn't have to add any extra hardware to lock the pieces together.
The pieces of plywood could have cross-supports already screwed into the underside, and again, notches could be in the frame work and the plywood sit right on top.
Have some way of securing the plywood to the roof of your truck cap -- could even use bunjee cords to keep the pieces tight to the roof.
Doing it this way, you could have easy access to all your tools/parts in the storage area and the platform is right out of your way. Avoiding using the sides of the truck cap means the windows are not obscured -- allowing more light inside.
Are you going to use some sort of self-inflating mattress?

i like that idea. i'd have to blueprint it out, but that just may work. frame out the bed with notched anchors, and then have the platform slip into the notches and lock into place when put together. maybe have a 2 piece platform so i could potentially install the whole thing on my own. most of the time, the platform would probably be in dry storage in my garage, and then installed in the bed of the truck when i know im going to be using it. id like to keep it so i can use the entire bed for hauling stuff if needed. im not too worried about the added weight of the platform and whatever.
im not sure what ill be using to sleep on. I was thinking about maybe putting a few layers of carpet padding on top of the plywood, then a layer of carpeting, and then carry a sleeping pad to put on top of that. i've had bad experiences with inflatable mattresses in the past and would rather not deal with them every night.

Rosie Lewis's life has seen 24 presidential elections and this one is the first that she's choosing to be a part of. Miss Rosie is 99-years-old and has made it her mission to go out and vote for President Barack Obama.
"Miss Rosie should be an inspiration to all of our young people and old," Miss Rosie's friend, Gerri Ware said as she registered Miss Rosie to vote.
Must Read: Boy Survived 3 Years After Being Born With Only A Brain Stem
Lewis' grandson says that Miss Rosie is an amazing person. I don't know the woman, but I back that statement with my whole heart. Voting is a right that many of us didn't have to fight for with our own hands.
Miss Rosie was only seven years old when the 19th Amendment passed, allowing women to vote. She lived through 24 different presidents, but it's President Obama that she loves. Why didn't Miss Rosie vote when she turned 18, or at all? Her grandson explains that she was set in her ways and politics wasn't something she thought about. It's as simple as that. Miss Rosie, however is making her first vote an impactful one.
There's no excuse not to vote. We have a chance every four years to allow our voices to count. Allow Miss Rosie's determination to fuel your motivation to vote.
What's most inspiring is that there's more voters like Miss Rosie! Please, no matter who you vote for on Nov. 6th, VOTE!
Check out this absolutely inspiring video of Miss Rosie's story below:

Latest News: NRCS swiftly launched the Migratory Bird Habitat Initiative following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill to enable farmers to create and enhance habitat for migratory birds, providing an alternative to habitat in impacted coastal ecosystems. NRCS, in cooperation with its conservation partners, identified priority areas that offer the greatest habitat potential for migrating bird populations. Priority areas in Florida were in Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Walton, Bay, Gulf, Franklin, Wakulla, Jefferson, Taylor, Dixie, Holmes, Washington, Jackson, Calhoun, Liberty, Gadsden, Leon, Madison and Lafayette counties. Mississippi State University recently completed a three-year evaluation of bird use of habitat and availability of food in rice fields, catfish ponds and wetlands managed through MBHI. Read More.

Buffalo Zoo's Baby Polar Bear Luna Plays in Snow For First Time! [VIDEO]
Here's a cute little video to start off your Wednesday. The Buffalo Zoo's baby polar bear cub Luna was given a chance to play in some Buffalo snow for the first time.
Here's a cute little video to start off your Wednesday. The Buffalo Zoo's baby polar bear cub Luna was given a chance to play in some Buffalo snow for the first time.
We are on a roll with cats this week! First it was the cat that can play fetch, now this:
I love my dog, but he doesn't know how to play fetch. We have tried, but he just doesn't understand. My cousin Matt, on the other hand, recently adopted two stray cats -- Scout and Churchill. He found out that Churchill thinks she is a dog and plays fetch!
Monkeys can be troublemakers. They steal. They're sloppy kissers. And if you're another animal, one might just jump on your back and use you as a taxi.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be able to play piano and sing like Billy Joel or Elton John, but sadly I'm too uncoordinated. Apparently this dog has the same dream!
Lions, for example, are highly territorial beasts; most people seem well aware of this. But as it turns out, geese will defend their turf as well—and quite aggressively at times.
Monkeys and apes—sometimes they look so much like us that it's almost like we're all somehow related.
Poor "McLovin".
The Buffalo Zoo is one of only two zoos in North American that have given birth to a polar bear cub in 2012. The cub, who has yet to be named, is in need of a new habitat, and the Buffalo Zoo has been raising funds for the new enclosure and a new entrance.
We already know horses are prone to some pretty funny stuff, like Skrillex hair and semi embarrassing Halloween costumes. As our luck would have it, this is only one part of their entertaining shenanigans.
Sit. Shake hands. Roll over. Express your deepest emotions about me in a concisely worded phrase.
Everyone loves a good pool party. And not just people.

But now, in the midst of a hard-fought GOP primary, drudge is going all out against Newt.
When the trailer debuted in June, drudge Report picked up the link to it and labeled it an "Obama Generation Satire."
On Thursday, the drudge Report featured an explosion of headlines raining mud down on Gingrich, which of course helps Mitt Romney.
late 15c., "one employed in mean, servile, or distasteful work," missing in Old English and Middle English (but cf. Middle English druggen "do menial or monotonous work; druggunge, mid-13c., in Barnhart), but apparently related to Old English dreogan "to work, suffer, endure" (see endure). The verb is from 1540s.

So I'm working on a framework-esque system with one of my co-workers. Our current challenge is how to best implement statuses. Oftentimes, a status will carry with it unique data (a color for a table row, or text to be displayed to a user. etc). Currently, we have a statuses table which contains all this data. Contained in that table is a column: "css_class", which, whenever a record has that status, the specified CSS class is attached to the element (in this case a tr). Also, in order to assign another record a specific status, a foreign key is specified in that database table (in this case, a user has a specific status. So in the users table, there is a statuses_id foreign key). This implementation works alright, but there are a few problems. First, what if I need to perform a specific action in PHP if a record is in a specific status? The way we do it now is something like this:
//execute some code
This really doesn't work well if statuses can change. Change one status, and the associated code either breaks or behaves differently than intended.
The other issue, and the main reason for posting a question is that the table contains the column "css_class". This is very versatile and allows us change the style of a specific status very quickly. But we really dislike the idea of putting code inside a database. Perhaps having CSS classes in a database isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I really don't know what the common practice is. Any ideas?
What I've gathered from the first few answers is that I should keep all my view stuff out of my model stuff in order to maintain an MVC framework. My argument is that if I keep the css_class name out of the database, then I'm checking the status id in the view in order to decide which class to assign it. So if I put the class in the database, I'm putting View information in the Model. If I don't put CSS classes in the database then I'm putting Model information in the View (checking which ID it belongs to). So by not muddying up the Model, I muddy up the view instead.......

The regulatory review process for the Keystone XL pipeline has numerous twists and turns dating back to 2008. Here is a look:
Sept. 19, 2008 Read More »
WASHINGTON–Several hundred cowboys, farmers, and native American tribes descended on the Mall on Tuesday as part of a protest against the proposed Keystone XL pipeline from Canada that could cross their lands in Nebraska and the Dakotas.
The "Reject and Protect" rally on Earth Day included members of the Cowboy and Indian Alliance, the anti-Keystone environmental groups Bold Nebraska and 350.org, and Washington-based green-issues activists from Earth Action Now. Read More »
The State Department unexpectedly announced Friday afternoon that it will extend indefinitely its review of the Keystone XL pipeline's National Interest Determination, citing concerns about a Nebraska state court ruling in February invalidating the latest pipeline's route.
The extended review will likely push back any final decision by President Barack Obama on whether to approve Keystone past the midterm elections in November. Pipeline opponents and supporters say it was a political ploy to take pressure off the White House and Democrats this election season.
WSJ's Alicia Mundy explains five things to know about the decision. Read More »
Climate change is one of the issues at the top of President Barack Obama's agenda, and now it's getting big budget treatment in Hollywood, at least by documentary standards.
A nine-part series called "Years of Living Dangerously" will debut this coming Sunday evening on Showtime–emphasizing stories "from the front lines" of climate change impact. The first episode, now available online, stars actors Harrison Ford and Don Cheadle, two of the series' correspondents. Read More »
Nearly a dozen Senate Democrats, including five up for re-election this year, are pressing President Barack Obama to approve the Keystone XL pipeline by the end of next month.
Most Republicans support the pipeline, but the 11 Democrats who wrote a letter to Mr. Obama urging him to approve the project deliberately made it a one party-effort. While a set of bipartisan signatures can be a powerful thing in the art of Washington letter-writing, these lawmakers clearly want to accentuate the pressure Mr. Obama faces from his own party on this issue.

House Appropriations Chairman Hal Rogers (R., Ky.) clearly isn't happy with the EPA move this week to expand the reach of its clean-water rules to include small streams and wetlands, including those that dry up in the summer.
At a Thursday hearing with Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy, Mr. Rogers suggested the EPA wasn't likely to see any money anytime soon to support the new water protection regulations issued on Tuesday by the EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers. Expanding the number of water bodies covered by the EPA is important in Kentucky, where coal mining is a major industry and runoff from surface mines is a major environmental issue. Read More »
Lesser Prairie Chicken 1; Plains States Lawmakers 0.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced Thursday that it would list the Lesser Prairie Chicken as a "threatened species." While the move would limit ranching, farming, and building on the birds' habitat, which is largely in Kansas and also parts of Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico and Texas, the service said it would put in place a "special rule" to limit regulatory impacts on landowners and businesses. Read More »
An alliance of clean-energy groups is launching a $5 million campaign of issue ads and an 11-state grassroots effort on Monday in support of three Democratic Senate candidates who have been attacked in ads from Americans for Prosperity, which is supported by the conservative Koch brothers.
Several green groups including the Sierra Club, the Environmental Defense Fund, and the Sustainable Business Council Action Fund, will pay for $2.5 million in TV and digital issue ads supporting embattled Sen. Kay Hagan in North Carolina, and Senate candidates Rep. Gary Peters of Michigan and Rep. Bruce Braley of Iowa. Read More »
When President Barack Obama hired John Podesta, an outspoken environmentalist who opposes the Keystone XL pipeline, as his special adviser late last year, many environmentalists anticipated that they were getting a strong ally in the West Wing.
Maybe so. But on Wednesday, Mr. Podesta showed that he's not afraid to push back at environmental groups when he feels they're going too far. Read More »
The Obama administration is launching a new effort to highlight a climate change policy that usually doesn't get much attention: adaptation. Read More »

Sew up a sassy accessory for the kitchen with this free apron sewing tutorial. A ruffle and pockets in coordinating fabrics are cute finishing touches. Project excerpted from C&T Publishing's Oh Sew Easy Lifestyle by Valori Wells and Carolyn Spencer.
- Cotton print 1 3⁄4 yard- Main body
- Cotton print 2 1⁄ 4 yard- Top band and pockets
- Cotton print 3 1⁄ 2 yard- Waistband
- Thread- Topstitching
- Buttons, rickrack, ribbon, or beads Accents
- Stitching and knitting gauge (optional)
Cotton print 1
- 1 1 @ 301⁄ 2? × 201⁄ 2? Main body (kitchen apron)
- 1 @ 301⁄ 2? × 151⁄ 2? Main body (cocktail apron)
Cotton print 2
- 1 @ 51⁄ 2? × 181⁄ 2? Top band
- 4 @ 51⁄ 2? × 51⁄ 2? Pockets
Cotton print 3
- 2 @ 6? ×width Waistband
Waist Band
Cut off the selvage edges from the 2 strips of waistband fabric. Use a 1⁄2? seam allowance to stitch together the short ends of the waistband strips to make one long strip. Press the seam open.
- Measure and press under 1⁄4? on the short edges of the waistband strip. Make the waistband as a Clean Edge Band.
To round the bottom corners of each pocket, place pocket squares right sides together, and fold in half. Use a chalk pencil to draw a quarter circle in the corner of the raw edges. Cut on the chalk line through all layers.
For each pocket, open the fold, and stitch the pieces together, using a 1⁄4? seam allowance. Leave a 3? opening in the center of the top edge.
Trim the points from each corner. Be sure not to cut so close that you cut the stitching. Make 1⁄8?-deep clips along the curved edge so the seam will be smooth when the pocket is turned right side out. Trim corners and clip curve.
- Turn each pocket right side out and press, pressing under the seam allowance of the opening. Whipstitch the opening closed.
Top Band
- Make a Clean Finished-Edge Hem on the short edges of the rectangle.
Main Body
Make a Clean Finished-Edge Hem around the entire main body of the apron.
Pin the pockets to the main body 21⁄2? from the sides and 21⁄2? from the top edge.
Topstitch each pocket to the main body, stitching 1⁄8? from the edges of the pocket. Leave the top edge open.
Tip- When choosing a thread for the topstitching, you can choose a color that blends perfectly with the fabric or a contrasting color so that the topstitching becomes a decorative touch.
To make a gathering stitch, set the machine stitch length to the longest stitch (usually 5). Stitch across the top edge of the main body piece, 3⁄4? from the edge.
Remove the fabric from the machine, and cut the threads, leaving long tails. Knot the thread tails together at one end of the stitching. At the opposite end, gently pull the bobbin thread (the bottom thread) to gather the main body until it is the same length as the top band (181⁄2?). Even out the gathers. Knot the thread tails together to secure.
- Set the sewing machine back to a normal stitch length.
Put the Apron Together:
Fold the top band in half crosswise, and mark the bottom edge of the fold with a pin. Fold the top edge of the gathered main body in half, and mark the fold with a pin.
Place the top edge of the main body on the bottom edge of the top band, with right sides up. Overlap the edges 1?, and match the center pins. Pin the overlapped edges together.
Topstitch the main body to the top band along the gathering stitch line.
Press under 1⁄2? on the top edge of the top band, and then open the fold. The pressed line will be your guide as you insert the edge into the waistband.
Fold the top band and the main body in half crosswise and mark the center of the top edge with a pin. Fold the waistband in half crosswise and mark the center of the bottom (open) edge with a pin.
Place the top edge of the top band in the open edges of the waistband. Match the center pins, and align the pressed line on the top band with the bottom edges of the waistband. Pin the layers together. Topstitch along the bottom edge of the waistband.
Add trims and embellishments as desired to match your fabrics.

At first glance of this apron pattern I thought ugly but even reading the instruction which was a little confusing until I figure out the typing mistakes. I decided to modified this to look more like a broom skirt so I even use fabric with tones of the Southwest. This is how I cut the fabric: 1-26 1/2"x 11 1/2" for the cocktail apron 1-32 1/2" x 12 1/2" and 1-38 1/2" x 13 1/2" for the Kitchen apron 1-5 1/2" x 18 1/2" Top Band 2-5 1/2" x 30" Ties 4-5 1/2" x 7 1/2" Pockets I cut cocktail apron and pockets out of same color, bottom kitchen ruffle, band & ties out of the same color and the middle ruffle out of a different color. I must say my modification turn out very nice. The fabric colors I used was turquoise,and 2 turquoise prints.

I'm sorry, but this is the ugliest anything I've ever seen. However, if the fabric pattern was different, or it was a solid color, it might be nice.

Just prior to partaking in what has been, since the end of the season, an almost-daily Fenway Park weight-lifting session, David Ortiz leaned back in the chair planted in the middle of the desolate Red Sox clubhouse, explaining for upwards of 20 minutes his mindset heading into the offseason.
The slugger started with a relatively placid tone before working up to a series of intense declarations, leaving absolutely no room for interpretation when it came to his thoughts on the past, present and future:
1. Ortiz wants a multi-year contract, and hopes the Red Sox don't simply pick up his $12.5 million team option.
"I'm not comfortable coming back just for one year because it's going to be the same roller-coaster that I had this year," he said. "All the question marks. People still don't realize what you're capable of doing even after eight years. I'm the kind of guy who likes to be left alone, play my game and be the best at my position."
2. His representatives will be meeting with the Red Sox front office next week, with the deadline (three days after the completion of the World Series) to decide on Ortiz' option looming.
"I'm pretty sure in one of the meetings I'll be there myself," Ortiz predicted.
3. The designated hitter is hoping to return to the mindset he said he carried for the first six years of his Red Sox career, but lost the last two.
"I just want to cut out all the crap and go back to the guy I was before, a happy guy who doesn't have to be answering questions that have nothing to with anything but controversy. I just want to be able to play baseball and have fun, like I used to," he said. "That's where I came back to not wanting just one year, because I know it's going to be just the same thing. As soon as you struggle for a week, it's going to be the same thing. People saying you are old, saying you have no bat speed anymore. People talking all kind of crap. It's hard to avoid that because it's all over the place. You're a regular human being just like everyone else. It's not like you're in a cage, locked up and you come to the field and that's it. It's not like we don't watch TV, listen to the radio, read the newspaper. We are all connected to that stuff. Especially here."
4. The 34-year-old has been hit hard by what he perceives as an altered perception of his existence in a Red Sox uniform.
"To tell you the truth, like everybody knows, I want to be back, and I want to be here for a longer period of time. I'm just a little worn out because of the negativity that I've dealt with the last few years," Ortiz insisted. "I don't think there's any baseball player that can deal with all the distractions that I deal with and play baseball. It's hard. I'm not a super hero. I'm just another human being, like everyone else. I've got feelings. I want to give this team another World Series, and dealing with all the other crap with people telling you can't do it no more, or this and that, I have no room for that. Hopefully next week we'll sit down and make everyone happy."
5. Ortiz is still supremely confident in his ability heading into the 2011 season.
"I know that I can help this ball club more than what people think," he said. "It's just all the question marks that people put on me. Even after the season I had, people still have questions. You tell me, how does a guy who is declining finish in the Top 10 best hitter in the league. How does that happen? Put it this way, the past two years I have 60 homers, and I have over 200 RBI. Is that bad?"
Yet, after all the analysis and information, Ortiz punctuated the session by taking the filter off, and simplifying his view through a few decisive sentences:
"I'm going to hit!"
"I know how to hit!"
(Another pause.)
"I'm going to hit!"
"You're talking to a bad [man]," Ortiz continued. "I don't care what anybody says, I've done it all in baseball. I'm happy to be here, I want to continue my career here, and people already know that. But I don't want the controversy. I'm tired of that [stuff]. I'm tired of people questioning me and people not believing in what I can do."
If you couldn't tell, Ortiz is fed up. He is also perplexed. He is coming off his sixth 30-plus home run season of his career (32), the fifth-most in the American League. He was eighth in the AL in OPS (.899), while totaling the 10th-most RBI in the league (102).
Yet, it was the reaction that came from an April in which he managed one home run while hitting .143 that still stings. For Ortiz, there was also a direct correlation between the diminishing support and the uncertainty that came with his undefined future with the Red Sox. Hence, his desire to lock something up for more than just the one year, allowing Ortiz the kind of peace of mind that he feels has been absent for the past two seasons.
"The reason why we play 162 games is not to see what you can do in the first 50, because you can kill in the first 75 games and then if you shut it down the next 75 what have you done? This is a game were I have maintained myself in being the Top 10 in the league, even last year, which was supposedly my worst year as a Red Sox. I was in the top 10-15 hitters in the league. When you talk about power-hitters' numbers, I was right there with everybody," Ortiz explained.
"When you go through my position there's not an elite player that you can match with me at my position, because not everybody has a true DH. Very few teams have a guy have a guy who is going to be their DH no matter what. The Red Sox are a team that have had a true DH the last eight years. And then when you talk about numbers, where you going to go? But the most important thing is when you match me with power hitters then it gets more interesting.
"The bottom line is my first five years here, I didn't have much pressure on me. People were watching me because of what I was doing. They were enjoying it. i was having tons of fun. You saw what it was. Every single penny that I have gotten from this organization, I've earned it. It's not like I shut it down."
As Ortiz spoke, the intensity of his words increased exponentially. He is not blind to the fact that no designated hitter put up as many homers, or finished with a higher OPS. And that is why the frustration leaks out when it comes to analyzing both public perception and his contractual future. It also led to words thick with the kind of self-confidence the DH usually doesn't put on public display.
"I'm starting to analyze my numbers later in my career, and that's because of the crap people talk about," he said. "But at the end of the day, I'm one of the best hitters in the game.
"Every organization wishes they could have a guy like myself the past eight years. So am I supposed to be taking [crap] from anybody? No. I've been doing my thing. That's it. And I want to go back to that, because I'm a fun player. I'm a person who likes to have fun. I care about my team. I care about all the stuff that I do. I care about people around me. That's me. I'm not any different. When you're that open and that cool all the way around and you hear people trying to make your life impossible because that they want to sell newspapers, it makes no sense."
So what now? That's what Ortiz can't wait to find out.
"My situation … I don't know," he said. "We'll see how it goes."

Lotus has long been known as a pure enthusiast's car, but with its new 2008 Lotus Exige S 240, the company is showing it hasn't forgotten about taking these vehicles to the streets of your own neighborhood.
The Exige S 240 gets a power bump from 220 horses to 240, hence the name, and a torque increase from 165 pound-feet to 170. Along with this added oomph, Lotus upgraded the clutch plate cover to handle the extra twist, which is expected to be good for 0-to-60 in 4.0 seconds and 100 mph in just under 10 seconds.
Also new for Lotus are variable traction and launch controls. The traction-control system lets you choose from 11 different settings. One through 10 allow you to control slip, one being the least amount, 10 being a bunch, and the 11th setting being traction completely off. The launch control is a cool feature: You must follow a set sequence, like an astronaut preparing for lift-off, then it's foot to the floor, revs hanging at your set rpm limit, a clutch drop, some wheelspin, a bit of tire smoke, and you're gone. Knowing that these cars will see track time, Lotus has designed the suspension to break away/collapse in the event of a crash. This helps minimize if not prevent damage to the aluminum chassis.
The new interior-especially with the optional Touring package ($1600) that includes full leather, added sound insulation, full carpeting, an iPod connection, and a cupholder-is a welcome improvement. A restyled roof scoop now extends to the top of the windshield allowing more air to reach the intercooler, while the aero package on the S 240 creates nearly 100 pounds of downforce at 100 mph.
Paint choices start at $590 and climb to $5100 for the luminescent colors. The limited-slip differential and traction control costs $1750, and the Track pack ($1650) gives you Bilsteins that are adjustable with a single knob.
With the new Exige S 240 Lotus was able to do something many makers simply cannot: They took an already amazing vehicle and made it even better.

data into it I had to create a new offer word template with form fields on it. All you have to do then is to have a profile document to tell the script which Notes fields corresponds to field in word or you can name them same to eliminate the profile keyword creation.
As we have six different templates I had to create a new form and doc from it to store these different word template embedded on it. I then display these templates in a dialog for the user to select a template.
This is the script, which writes data from notes field to word form fields.
