Another Welcomed Joseph Banks Product
By Jim
from Northern Virginia
Another great product from Joseph Banks! I periodically search for "buys" and hit it lucky with the purchase of three ties. The Trapped Bar tie was just one. Joseph Banks delivered in days. I wore the first tie the next day; the other two followed within the week. You can tell the quality of a tie when you first tie it. I knew immediately that I made good choices. People in the workplace all complimented me on the new ties.
Excellent Item
By Boone
from Grass Valley, CA
As with all items from Bank, this tie is extremely well made and goes with many outfits.
Love it!

from Montgomery, AL
High quality construction- sturdy but not stiff.

The Cyclone MAX is a powerful, cost-effective in-circuit programmer for Freescale's Kinetis, Freescale MPC5xxx, ColdFire V2/3/4, Power MPC5xx/8xx, DSC (MC56F80xx, MC56F82xx, MC56F83xx, and MC56F84xx), and MAC7xxx ARM® processor-based MCUs. The Cyclone is able to control a processor using the processor's debug port. Communication occurs via Ethernet, USB, or Serial Port, allowing the user to quickly debug code and program it onto a microprocessor. Once the Cyclone is configured, programming operations are completed in one touch
The Cyclone's flexibility and intuitive software allows for a seamless transition between development and production environments. The Cyclone and the target being debugged may be local to the PC or remotely connected via Ethernet. Multiple Cyclones on your network can easily be detected and controlled from the same PC. In addition, the Cyclone MAX has been specifically designed with features like voltage protection technology in order to withstand the rigors of a production environment.
For debugging, prototyping, and other development projects, the Cyclone can be used in Interactive Mode as a robust communications interface between the PC and the target. Devices can be programmed in-circuit, already mounted on a circuit board. The Cyclone is supported by P&E software, Freescale's Codewarrior, and other third-party software (available separately).
In Stand-Alone Mode, the Cyclone MAX is configured and loaded with one or more programming images. Control of the Cyclone may then be automated using a PC (e.g., for large production runs), or the Cyclone can be operated completely independent of the PC (e.g., for field updates). An LCD screen facilitates configuration and operation of the unit. The display's menu-based navigation allows the user to easily select the image to be programmed when the Cyclone MAX contains multiple programming images.
More information exists about the Cyclone Max on P&E's website including an animated flash demonstration.

Go beyond the automatic editing features in Adobe Photoshop Elements and find out how to make sophisticated edits using the Expert Edit mode. In this course, author, teacher, and photographer Jan Kabili explores the core features of the Expert Edit mode, from making exposure adjustments, retouching, and compositing images, to adding text. The course also takes a close look at adjusting photos with Adobe Camera Raw, included with Elements 11.
The purpose of making a selection is to isolate part of a layer, so that your edits affect just that portion of the content on the selected layer. There are lot's of ways to select, which we'll explore in this chapter, but first I want to make sure you understand what selections are for, so I would like to show you a few examples. I'm going to click on one of the simpler selection tools, the Rectangular Marquee tool here in the toolbar; you can use this tool to make a selection in the shape of a rectangle or square. I'm going to select this area in the front of the mailbox by clicking on the top left corner of that area and dragging down diagonally toward the bottom right corner.
I'm not going to even try to make a perfect selection here, I just want you to get the general sense of what selections do. So I will release my mouse and now you can see the animated dash is called marching ants that define the boundary of a selection. Whatever edits I make now will affect only the area inside the selection on whatever layer is selected in the Layers panel, take a look at the Layers panel and you see that there is a photograph on the mailbox layer and underneath that is a plain white layer. I'd like to make a change to the mailbox, so I'll select the mailbox layer here.
But I'm going to go over to the toolbar and I'll get my Brush tool. I happen to have blue as my foreground color; you can click in the foreground color box and choose any color you want from the color picker. I'll go to the Mode menu in the Options bar for the Brush tool; and I'm going to change that from Normal, which would lay down a solid paint; to Color, which will lay down paint but still allow the pattern on this mailbox to show through. And then I'll move into the image. I see that my brush tip is a little small, so I'll go back to the Options bar and drag the Size slider over to the right.
Now notice that if I try to paint outside of the selection, nothing happens that's because my edits will only take place inside the selection. So even if I'm sloppy about painting and I start way out here and then drag over the selection the paint is laid down only inside of the selection borders. So that's just one example, let me give you another. Sometimes I'll select an area that I want to delete from a photo, for example, I may have a really plain sky and I'd like to delete the sky so that I can see down through to a more interesting sky that I've put on the layer below.
Now in this case I do have the layer below the mailbox it's a layer that contains pure white. So, let's see what happens when I try to delete the selected area on the mailbox layer. I'll press the Backspace key on my keyboard, or the Delete key on a Mac keyboard, and that deletes the selected area of the mailbox layer, so we can see down through to the white on the layer below. I am going to make the white layer temporarily invisible by clicking its eye icon. So you can see that the pixels on the mailbox layer are now gone and behind them with the white layer invisible, there is just this gray in my checkerboard that represents transparency.
I'll give you one more example. When I make a selection, I can fill the selected area with either a color or pattern. To do that, I'll go up to the Edit menu and I'll go down to Fill. Notice that what is normally a Fill Layer command has changed to a Fill Selection command. That's because I have a selection active. I can see the marching ants going around the selection. So I'll choose Fill Selection, and that opens the Fill Layer dialog box. Here I'm going to choose to use not a color, but rather a pattern to fill with.
I don't like the default pattern, so I'll click the arrow to the right of the Custom Pattern field and I'm going to scroll down and find another pattern. I think I'll go with this optical pattern. I'll click in a blank area of this dialog box to close the pattern picker and then I'm going to click OK. And that fills the selected area with this repeating pattern. I still had my marching ants going; you can see them around the edge of that optical pattern. So to delete the selection I'll come up to the Select menu and I could choose Deselect, but this is a keyboard shortcut you'll use so often that I suggest you memorize it; and that is Ctrl+D on the PC or Command+D on the Mac to deselect a selection.
Now the marching ants are gone and any edit that I make, like painting with my Brush tool, is no longer limited to the area inside of the selection. So those are some examples of why you might use a selection, stick with me for the rest of this chapter to learn more about creating selections and their cousin's masks.

Please replace the release with the following corrected version due to multiple revisions.
The corrected release reads:
Penned by JR Smith and Siobhan MacDermott, groundbreaking book shows individuals how to play offense with their online identity, reputation, and personal brand
AVG Technologies N.V. (NYSE: AVG), the provider of Internet and mobile security to 143 million active users, today announced that in honor of Data Privacy Day, they have released Wide Open Privacy Student Edition, available for free as a PDF or Amazon e-book. Published by IT-Harvest Press (2012) and written by AVG CEO JR Smith and Chief Policy Officer Siobhan MacDermott, the book reveals how individuals can take proactive control of their online identity, reputation and personal brand.
"The strategies contained in Wide Open Privacy are especially useful to students as they negotiate the transition between their academic and/or adolescent personas into adult and professional ones," said Smith. "From social media to retail, and given today's cluttered, volatile and wiki-speed information environment, young people face a specific set of challenges in managing their everyday lives. Wide Open Privacy provides clear methods to enrich the online experience across all connected devices – and confidence that the decisions students make today will not haunt their digital existence in the years to come."
Neither "idiot's guide" nor academic treatise, Wide Open Privacy responds to urgent public demand for better and easier tools and resources to understand and navigate the powerful but potentially treacherous seas of e-commerce, online banking, social media, and cloud content sharing.
"Especially as they adopt and settle on the habits that will define their lives, students cannot afford to put their fate in the hands of government or big business – or even in the hands of the photo-happy friends they partied with last night," said MacDermott. "Individuals need to take personal control of their digital destinies. Wide Open Privacy offers clear strategies and tech-savvy tactics to achieve the necessary control to live safer, more productive lives online."
AVG believes everyone needs a reliable toolkit to best manage their identity and reputation in the digital world. Especially when it comes to policymakers and corporations, consumers are not always empowered by or provided with policies that acknowledge their right to make their own decisions when it comes to online reputations, privacy and peace of mind. Until governments and companies deliver that acknowledgment, Internet users need to take and keep control of their digital lives, personal brand and privacy. Wide Open Privacy helps them do this.

Below is the poem entitled PIMPED which was written by poet
MacMillan. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Cyndi Macmillan
Like horseflesh, a filly
stabled by billboards
flares thin nostrils. Her mane deceives,
looks untamed, a lie
for she has been subjected
to six hours of grooming, polished
and primped, false-lashed,
pimped into six inch stilettos
to model a shell-pink
lace thong.
Oh, delicate hook of youth
posturing as a whore. And all the
while a predator salivates, imagines
this nubile girl gyrating for him
alone, adoring, servile.
She is just fifteen, keeps
a bear on her bed, makes pompoms,
collects green sea glass, eats
Cocoa Puffs and devours
teen Magazines.
Last week a stranger called her
Mona Lisa. Eyes wide, she replied,
But my name is Mara.
He licked his lips, promised to take her
to Paris, teach her all she should know,
mentioned ambrosia, spanning stars,
but his grin, his awful, wet grin,
blazed a branding.

Anthropology Department
Dear Students: A Welcome from the Chair
August 20, 2014
Dear new and returning students,
Welcome to the 2014-2015 school year! Our faculty and staff are excited about working with you and including you in our classes, research activities, events and other anthropological happenings.
"Life is about moving, it's about change. And when things stop doing that they're dead."
Twyla Tharp
2014 brought lots of changes to the department of Anthropology. The most obvious is that our offices have moved and our campus footprint has expanded. The main department office (where you'll find our office coordinator and Knower of Answers to All Kinds of Questions, Cindy Zehner) and faculty offices are now located on the second floor of Lake Michigan Hall (I'm in LMH 227, check the campus directory) and we have two new labs – A Biological Anthropology lab (where some of our bioanth courses will now be taught) and a new Ethnographic-Linguistic-Visual lab (affectionately known as ELVis). Ask faculty for information about these using these labs.
The familiar and much-loved Anthropology Lab in LMH 249 will now focus a bit more on archaeology, but will retain its role as a place to gather and to find Lab Supervisor Wesley Jackson. We also have new project spaces where students can work with faculty and some locations for quiet study (shhhh). As of the time of this writing, the dust hasn't settled and there are still boxes to unpack, but we hope to have a housewarming of sorts during winter semester. As for now, feel free to come by and say hello!
We also have some changes in personnel. Student favorites Judith Corr and Dale Borders both retired at the end of the winter semester to take up more leisurely pursuits. Christian Vannier's three years as a visitor passed by far too quickly, and Christy Mello left Michigan for a visiting position at the University of Southern Missouri. Russell Rhoads is taking a year-long sabbatical this year, pursuing Fulbright research in Uganda and Sierra Leone. We will miss them all!
The good news is that we have some new faces joining us this fall – Christopher Shaffer joins us as a new tenure-track physical anthropologist. He does work in Guyana with northern bearded saki monkeys and uses both GPS and GIS in his research. Andrew White, an archaeologist focusing on hunter-gatherers, lithics and complex systems theory, is joining us as a visiting professor. Erica Begun, whom many of you know, is taking a one-year visiting position with us. She studies archaeology and ethnicity in Teotihuacan, Mexico. We have a new part-time instructor starting this fall, Devon Miller. He studies Anabaptist communities, like the Amish and the Mennonites, with a focus on their historical interactions with surrounding communities. And finally, Lab Supervisor Wesley Jackson will be teaching a section of Origins of Civilization for us in Holland this fall.
We had an interesting summer with lots of research going on, most of it involving students. Elizabeth Arnold and I both worked with Student Summer Scholars (S3) this year. Professor Arnold and her student analyzed artifacts from Bronze Age Israel and my student and I studied tourist sites associated with the Crusades in France, looking at national and regional self-representation. Mark Schwartz engaged students in underwater archaeology, looking at shipwrecks in the Great Lakes in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Janet Brashler conducted our local archaeological field school, and Heather Van Wormer led an ethnographic field school in New Zealand. Faculty also traveled to Portugal, Sweden, Spain, Turkey and Costa Rica.
Take advantage of the camaraderie and networking opportunities of the GVSU Anthropology Club! Alison Wilcoxson is the new president and information about the club and its meetings can be found on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/30938752818/ (GVSU Anthropology Club).
Wishing you a great semester and the wisdom to embrace and grow from change,
Deana Weibel

3 days ago, on Friday, Microsoft unveiled to the world their latest operating system–Windows 8 and their tablet, Surface on the East Coast. Today all the focus will be on West Coast. As of now, Samsung, Nokia and HTC have held events showcasing and unveiling their Windows Phone 8 launches. At Nokia's Lumia 920 launch, Windows Phone 8 chief, Joe Belfiore, unveiled some of Windows Phone 8's features. He started off with a disclaimer that he wasn't showing all the consumer features in Windows Phone 8. Today is that day.
Microsoft announced their big mobile day and Google decided to troll it with their own Nexus announcement. Unfortunately for Google, nature decided to troll the troll, and their event had to be cancelled. Their playground was shutdown due to Hurricane Sandy. One of the up coming features in Windows Phone 8, as confirmed by WPCentral, is live lock screen wallpapers. There should be more from Microsoft and you can follow the announcement live at Microsoft Newsroom.
In addition to live stream, Windows Phone 8's social outreach team has made an elaborate Facebook hub. The page is like one for the 2012 election page. The whole page is interactive and quite well laid out. A view stream of the announcement later today, a feature poll, topic tweets and a conversation heat map of the US. Personally, I'd rather follow the even on the Facebook Social hub than Newsroom. You should too.
Stuck in New York City due to Sandy, I will be breaking down all the updates, unless Sandy takes my Internet down. In the meantime, you can take a look at the list of Windows Phone 8 features we know about.

Golf courses may have 'huge potential' as sites to bury builders' waste
Posted: April 10, 2013|
DERBY'S two municipal golf courses have "massive investment" potential, according to a senior official at the city council.
The courses at Allestree and Sinfin were tendered for privatisation in 2009 because they were costing the authority £100,000 a year to run.
But negotiations with Mack Trading, which wanted to lease the courses for 50 years, broke down last year.
In a report to the planning, housing and leisure overview and scrutiny board, the council's strategic director for neighbourhoods, Paul Robinson, said the future for the courses may still lie in the private sector, despite the fact they are now no longer losing money.
Related content
But he warned that any decision should not be taken lightly because the potential to capitalise on the value of the sites was huge.
Mr Robinson told the meeting: "Effectively you go out to the waste industry and you say we will allow you to put your inert waste in our golf course.
"So you create mounds and bunker areas using the waste and at the core of those is inert waste."
Mr Robinson said there would be no risk to the public because inert waste is material such as builders' rubble and not contaminated waste.
"If you imagine what we pay for landfill, which is about £80 a ton, suddenly on a very large golf course if you start to take in thousands of tons of waste that gives you a massive investment in terms of capital. We just really need to think before we give away what could be a good capital investment."
The original proposal by Mack Trading would have seen them take on the two sites for half a century and invest £1 million if their business plan was successful.
However, the firm refused to index-link the amount of money given to the council for the lease to rise with inflation and the deal was turned down.
Councillor for Arboretum Ward Shiraz Khan said last night: "From what I can gather, Mack saw an opportunity to kick us while we are down and they wanted to invest the minimum and get the maximum out of it on a very long lease."
The next moves for the courses have yet to be decided but a deal with a private-sector company has not been ruled out.
The cabinet member for leisure and culture, Councillor Martin Repton, said: "We have to make sure what we do is right for the city, for the courses and for the golfers.
Conservative councillor Matthew Holmes, for Chellaston, said: "The bottom line, as always, is can revenue outweigh the costs to the council.
"Something has got to be done and needs to be for the right reason."

- Quantitative approaches to linguistic variation in IRC : implications for qualitative research (2008)
- Qualitative analysis of code choice, code switching, and language style in Internet Relay Chat (IRC) can shed light on functional-pragmatic aspects of the use of different linguistic varieties. However, in a qualitative analysis, the status of varieties within a channel or for a single chatter can only be guessed at. Moreover, qualitative research on linguistic variation in IRC often fails to generalize its findings due to a restricted database or a restricted view of a database. This article introduces an approach that allows for embedding of qualitative research within a quantitative research design. The quantitative method presented here enables general statements to be made about the use of varieties or the usage of certain chatters in a chat channel. The approach is exemplified with data from Swiss IRC channels, in which Swiss German dialects and standard German are used side by side. A large corpus is analyzed for static and dynamic aspects of dialect share. It is argued that this quantitative approach can provide a background for qualitative analysis and facilitate the selection process of relevant data required for qualitative analysis.

Mattox is Chosen NWC Track Student-Athlete of the Week
SALEM, ORE. -- Kimber Mattox (So., Bend, OR/Bend HS/Cornell Univ.) of Willamette University has been selected as the Northwest Conference Women's Track Student-Athlete of the Week for her efforts on Saturday, March 6 at the Willamette Opener. Mattox recorded a provisional qualifying mark for the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track and Field Championships in the 3,000-meter steeplechase.
Mattox won the steeplechase on Saturday with a time of 11:04.42. She finished the race well under the provisional standard of 11:13.0
It is the second consecutive season that Mattox has attained an NCAA qualifying mark in the steeplechase. Last year, she earned an automatic qualifying time while setting a Willamette record of 10:38.05 and went on to earn All-America honors by placing sixth at the NCAA Championships.
Mattox was one of four members of the WU women's track and field team to win an event at the Willamette Opener. Five members of the men's team also won events during the meet, which opened the Bearcats' season.
Willamette will return to action on Saturday, March 13 with a dual meet at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, Ore. Meet time is set for 1 p.m. (PST).

I am in the process of obtaining a 7(a) loan. My lender requires life insurance on myself as the owner of the company. I saw on this site that the lender should not be the beneficiary, but the bank said the insurance needs to be assigned to the bank. Is this correct? Thank you for your comments!
‹ are there any loan/grant programs for minorities looking to buy an existing business Buying a small to mid-size business... ›
JGabriel | Community Moderator | 7/24/2013 - 9:49 am
In our 7(a) loan closing checklist under Life or disability insurance, it states the following: Life insurance and/or disability insurance is not required for all loans, but the Lender should require life or disability insurance where there is a concern over whether the business could survive in the absence of an individual or small group of individuals that provide the management for the small business concern. When life or disability insurance is deemed prudent, the Lender may accept a COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT of an existing or new decreasing term or universal life insurance policy. LENDER SHOULD NOT BE NAMED AS A BENEFICIARY.

All banks have different requirements and policies. But, as a former
commercial lender and someone who has been in commercial lending for over 20

Two suggestions:
1) Find another bank without that requirement.
2) Tell your current bank NO!

Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
Ummm, I leveled in 3 days and have started to do heroic dungeons. They are awesome but hard as hell. Everyone always wants me to break out my succubus and seduce an enemy, whlle I'm feariing someone else and dpsing the boss. On some dungeons I'm actually banishing a lot. It's total chaos. The only Heroic Dungeon I've actually manage to get through so far is Shadowfang Keep. (I'M NOT SURE HOW!))))) I've had to swap pve glyphs for what I consder PVP glyphs.
Any suggestions about crowd control? I've never really had to worry about it before that much, but now IT'S ALL ABOUT CROWD CONTROL IN THESE INSTANCES. (I LIKE IT!))))))
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
Macro your CC spells for focus targets and display your focus. In fights when you are CC'ing position yourself when possible so you can see the boss and your CC focus target. Trying to CC two and dps is not very efficient, but maybe that's just me.
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
I'm assuming you began playing during the WotLK era. Don't worry, it'll be ok. You'll learn to adapt and you'll be a better player for it. To those of us that played through Burning Crusade, this reminds us of the "good old days."
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
Indeed Ugru.
Finally some need for cc in PVE again.
Learn to use Focus, and have a modifier macroed to your cc spells to cast the cc spell on the focus target. This helps a lot in controlling one mob while dps'ing another. If you are assigned multiple cc targets you have to do some target switching, but having one controlled via the focus target functionallity really helps a lot.
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
lol ive never used the Focus before =/ can you explain what this means and how to use it?
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
Focus is like a secondary target. If you target a mob and then type /focus you will see the icon pop up. You can then target a second mob and the original one will still be your focus target. Type /focus with nothing targeted to remove your focus. I have it key bound. If you search this site you'll find plenty of CC macro ideas using focus. Look prior to WotLK date when we had to CC all the time in BC.
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
Be sure to glyph the fear so the target stands still. If you aren't used to CC, the feared mob will pull a whole room running around.
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
There's definitely tricks you can use to help you manage your crowd control. Generally I don't use focus, unless I'm on my rogue when I use a macro to use tricks of the trade on our tank.
As a quick and dirty macro, you can do something like this:
/cast [target=focus] Fear
I think you can get by without use these kinds of macro's though; it just takes a lot of practice to get your initial cc rotation AND dps rotation going smoothly. I love the fact that we can use 3 different types of cc though; Fear, Banish, and Seduce (o)l
Re: Warlock Crowd Control Heroics?
The Gylph of Fear is just amazing! Amazing I say!!! I've had lots of successful Heroics so far, and we usually have 2 of the trash mobs CC'd. And almost always, one of the cc'd mobs is my responsibility. Focusing this mob is very important. You can usually burn down one mob and just get started into the 2nd before having to fear your focused mob again. Timing is also important. More than likely, you will be fearing at the same time that your tank is pulling....cause we want our feared mob to stay outta the pack. I think the most helpful thing has been keeping my pet on passive and keybinding 'pet attack' to my mousewheel up. This way, my impy doesnt attack my feared target upon cast. And after having feared, I can start in on the Skull target and 'mousewheel up' so Mr. Impy attacks the skull. Whatever you do, dont let your pet break CC'd mobs.

Rated 2.7 out of 5Â by 10 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5Â by RequiemNocturne Not what I expected... This dress runs really large for some reason... I'm usually XS but this dress is huge! I was surprised/shocked how loose it was around the waist. The fit was terrible on me. I assumed that this dress was a fit-n-flare design by looking at the pictures of the model but I guess it wasn't. I'm a big FP fan, currently living in Japan so I need to ship it back. A bit disappointed. Bye bye Peek Boo Dress... 6.6.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Myfanwy Cute dress Am so glad I read through the reviews and sized down! I would normally have ordered a medium, but decided to choose an extra small since I wanted the fit to be similar to the model shown. The colour's a little dull. Not quite as bright as I would have preferred but still pretty cute. Good buy for the current price. 11.26.2012
Rated 2 out of 5Â by freepeoplegurl77 Ummm, no! This dress is my least favorite purchase ever. Returned. The dress is itchy and uncomfortable. Too low cut,I fell out of it and even shorter then pictured. I went with the berry, the color is really nice. Sorry, but a disappointment. This is by far my lowest rated product. 9.4.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by raelovestoskate peek a boo - cute! i got this dress in the charcoal color and i simply fell in love with it! I am 5'7 and about 120 and the x-small fit perfectly. I am usually a x-small or a small so it runs a little big. was on sale at the fp store so it was a great price! so glad i got it!! 8.2.2012
Rated 1 out of 5Â by Abeni not a good buy I really don't know how this dress looks good on the model. All the things other reviewers said about this dress are true. It's just way to big. I downsized and it was still baggy on me, and I'm pretty curvy. I thought I'd take a chance on this dress because I'm curvier, but honestly it's going back to the store asap. Do yourself a favor and pick out another cute dress. 7.25.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by awesomeeeeperson very cute Unlike some of the other reviewers, I thought this was just perfect. The waist is definitely not tightly fitted. However, that matches the rest of the dress. I really had to size down and got an XS. I'm 5'1'' 34C 135 lbs. 6.30.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by NatLinDir Cute Cute Cute This dress is super cute. I got it in the berry and the color in the picture matches the actual color very well. I got the XS, and it's a little bit roomy. I'm 5'2" and around 100 lbs. I usually wear an XS at Free People. Definitely keeping this dress anyways. It's fine a little loose in the waist. Too cute to return. :) 6.26.2012
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Lowen It's not so bad! I actually like this dress. I gave 3 stars because, as the others have pointed out, the overall fit of this dress is not the greatest. It's very large. That being said, The dress is otherwise pretty nice. I happen to like the fabric. It's a tad of the heavier side, but not something I would call heavy. It's good quality and I like the knitted appearance and pattern. I think it's got a very comfortable look and feel. I got a lot of compliments on it. I don't think it's the most flattering dress without a belt (I wore one)--if you have a flatter chest, the dress will fall closer to you--if you have a bigger bust, it forces the rest of the bodice/top portion away from you. It's a good choice for women who don't like dresses that cling to your stomach area or for hourglass or pear shapes that may want to belt it. Again, I chose a belt because I have a flat stomach and it accentuates my hourglass shape, plus it helps to break up the pattern a bit. I found it to be a cute and versatile buy for only $78, relatively inexpensive for a FP dress. For sizing, I am 5'3", 140lbs and have a 36C bust. I bought a size small and it is big on me. The XS was big too and shorter. I notice the other reviewers so far are all under 130lbs or describe themselves as "slender". Maybe not a good choice for the thinner ladies? 6.16.2012

AMARILLO -- The Texas and Oklahoma Departments of Emergency Management have joined the National Weather Service to designate today as Winter Weather Awareness Day.
The purpose of Winter Weather Awareness Day is to focus public attention on winter weather safety and preparedness.
The weather across the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles is known for sharp outbreaks of extreme cold often accompanied by snow and ice. In the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles, there have been more winter related fatalities since 1950 than the combined total from lightning, tornadoes, and flash floods.
A total of 70% of the winter-related fatalities are vehicle related, usually where winter weather directly results in a traffic accident or from exposure to the cold once a vehicle becomes stranded.

First generation college students get lower grades and are more likely to drop out - an "achievement gap" that threatens efforts to boost the number of college graduates.
Recent research, however, suggests a simple one-hour intervention that focuses on students' social-class backgrounds could help close the divide.
In an experiment at an unnamed elite private college, incoming students listened to college juniors and seniors discuss how their social class backgrounds affected their college experience, according to the paper "Closing the Social Class Achievement Gap," to be published in Psychological Science. The attendees and the panelists were a mix of "first generation" students - those whose parents lacked college degrees - and "continuing generation" students whose parents had college educations.

The aviation world's attention is riveted on San Francisco, where an Asiana Airlines Boeing Boeing 777 crashed on Saturday. Two young Chinese women died and 181 people were injured in the accident, which apparently began when the plane touched down short of the runway.
The deaths were the first in a commercial aircraft accident in the United States since 2009, and the most notable accident since the 2001 crash of an American Airlines plane in Belle Harbor, N.Y., near John F. Kennedy International Airport.
Over the next week, investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board will comb through the wreckage, interview crew and passengers, and try to deconstruct the accident.
I wrote a guide for the Reynold Center at Arizona State University for journalists covering plane crashes. You can see my tips here. In order to understand what's likely to happen next, here is what you can expect from the crash investigation.
- The NTSB does not speculate. Almost from the moment of the crash, commentators and so-called aviation experts began speculating that pilot error was the cause. But Deborah Hersman, the NTSB chairwoman, emphasized firmly on Sunday that it is far too soon to tell the reason for the accident. The NTSB typically takes nine months to a year to compile its findings and issue a report. While there may be preliminary word sooner than that, don't expect an official conclusion before 2014.
- Initial eyewitness reports are almost always wrong. On cable television, social media and the Web, a number of witnesses were quoted as saying the plane "cartwheeled," which would have meant it turned end over end. But dramatic video obtained by CNN showed Sunday that the plane did no such thing. The plane's nose lifted up dramatically, and the aircraft appears to pivot as pieces fly off the jet. While people who watched the crash certainly know what they were feeling, they rarely have the aviation experience to be able to accurately tell what is happening.
- Washington will play a role. The Federal Aviation Administration and the NTSB both fall under the umbrella of the Transportation Department. In turn, the DOT will be briefing the White House and members of Congress whose committees oversee aviation safety. You can expect for some news about the crash to come out of the nation's capitol in addition to San Francisco.
- Airlines and aviation companies are eager for news. There's a long list of companies with a stake in the findings of the crash, starting with Asiana, which is a member of the Star Alliance. Other airlines in the partnership include United, Lufthansa, US Airways, Swiss Air, Singapore and Air Canada Air Canada. Boeing, as maker of the aircraft, is a party to the accident investigation. Pratt & Whitney, which made the engines, also has a major interest in finding out what happened. Beyond that, every airline that flies a Boeing jet or flies into San Francisco will want to know whether they need to take precautions to prevent an Asiana-style incident.
- "Safety experts' have varying motives. As I wrote for the Reynolds Center, some have solid backgrounds, others are attorneys who make their living representing victims of accidents. Every appearance and quote is another selling tool. The best experts are people who have actually flown the Boeing 777, university professors who study aviation safety, and other industry people who have no vested interest in the outcome of San Francisco. If you see an expert appear too much across the TV networks, they probably aren't someone the industry is calling for advice.

SIJHL passes new Fort team
Monday, 11 June 2007 - 12:00am
The last formality before Fort Frances regained an SIJHL team for the upcoming season went without a hitch Saturday when recognition of the new franchise was passed at the league's annual general meeting, president/commissioner Ron Whitehead said. "There was no road bumps or anything, everything went smoothly. Fort Frances is definitely in the league," Whitehead said.
While a few questions remain, such as the name of the new team, these details already are decided and will be revealed at a press conference here this coming Saturday afternoon by new owner Carolyn Kellaway of Thunder Bay. "The team name, the team coaches, and the ownership group, et cetera, will all be announced then," Whitehead said. Kellaway was present at Saturday's meeting but is refraining from comment until this coming Saturday. In an interview late last week, Kellaway professed a love of the local community and spoke highly of Fort Frances' support of hockey in the past. She added that having a successful Junior 'A' team would require "a lot of help from the community," and embarked on the first steps to staffing the team, to fill positions for a P.A. announcer, goal judges, and the like. As for the league, Whitehead said they couldn't be happier Fort Frances is returning to the SIJHL. "Everybody welcomed them with open arms. There was no controversy," he noted. "We're extremely happy . . . we're happy to see them back." Fort Frances hasn't had an SIJHL team since the Couchiching-owned Borderland Thunder folded after the 2003/04 season in hopes of eventually joining the Manitoba Junior Hockey League.

Cruz plays, Schoop shows off
Showalter: 'This is about being the last team standing'
SARASOTA, Fla. – Nelson Cruz talked Buck Showalter into playing in Thursday's second intrasquad game on Thursday morning.
Cruz was hitting ninth; the lineups were in reverse alphabetical order. Delmon Young led off. In the third inning, Cruz tapped out to the pitcher.
The game was ended after 4 ½ innings.
For the second time in as many days, Jonathan Schoop hit a long home run off Bud Norris. This one landed on the TV platform in left center field. That's where Young's homer on Wednesday landed.
Norris and Wei-Yin Chen each pitched an inning. Tommy Hunter, T.J. McFarland and Josh Stinson were among the pitchers.
Henry Urrutia had a single, stole a base and scored a run.
Orioles video coordinator Michael Silverman umpired the top of the fifth and theatrically called a game-ending strikeout on Schoop. Troy Patton, who won't pitch in the first 25 games because of a suspension for amphetamine use was on the mound.
NOTE: Left-handed reliever Mike Belfiore was held out of the intrasquad games with a slight fracture of his left pinkie. He's now been given the go ahead to pitch.
-Zach Britton will follow Chris Tillman in Friday's game at Tampa Bay.

End of Gender: Kate Bornstein Saves Lives, Including Her Own: A Review of A Queer and Pleasant Danger
If you're queer, trans, or any sort of gender adventurer with a copy of Gender Outlaw on your bookshelf, at some point, you've probably thought, "I wish Kate Bornstein were my mom." Ironically, the one person with privilege of being the radical writer's biological kid thinks Bornstein is "irredeemably evil."
Bornstein's daughter Jessica was born into the Church of Scientiology, where Bornstein rose through the ranks for twelve years until her dramatic exit and eventual excommunication. Scientology teaches that Bornstein is a "suppressive person" (SP), someone whose malevolent nature draws devout followers away from Sceintology's "religious philosophy."
And so, like any good SP, Bornstein wrote her memoir, A Queer and Pleasant Danger: The true story of a nice Jewish boy who joins the Church of Scientology and leaves twelve years later to become the lovely lady she is today, with the hope that one day her daughter will read it, though she doubts Jessica ever will.
"My best educated guess is that she believes—with all her heart and soul—that I am completely and irredeemably evil," Bornstein writes. "Fact is, there are many reasons that people would agree with her."
This memoir shines a bright, unflinching light on those reasons and the consequences of living on the far edge of the fringe. Bornstein shares her experiences with anorexia, cutting, BDSM, and, of course, her wild ride from boy to man to girl to something in between. Bornstein's controversial inclinations result in rejection by Scientologiy, family members, and transgender activists who balk at Bornstein's refusal to call herself a woman. On her journey through self-destruction and survival, Bornstein shows us that the most unexpected things can be life-savers: porn, the power of cute, even Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion (you'll have to read the book to figure that one out).
Towards the end of A Queer and Pleasant Danger, Bornstein gives us a peek at her interactions with other trans revolutionaries like Riki Wilchins, Susan Stryker, and Leslie Feinberg. Shortly after the publication of Gender Outlaw, Bornstein gains a reputation as an "activist." But when she's thrown in front of the cameras at the Brandon Teena trial to speak on behalf of transgender rights, she fails to generate newsworthy soundbites and breaks down in tears. Bornstein confides that she "doesn't know a thing" about transgender politics. I would have liked to have read more about Bornstein's journey as a public figure. Her influence reveals that art can be just as valuable as political action. Perhaps she didn't write much about this because she's uncomfortable being propped up as an icon. Despite her undeniable influence on politics, art, and identity, she doesn't see herself as a hero.
Bornstein's self-deprecation throughout A Queer and Pleasant Danger is no ploy—it's real. Her self-criticism humanizes the trans icon who has helped so many teen queens, baby butches, and seasoned gender warriors through difficult times. By the time I read Bornstein's direct appeal to Jessica at the end of the book, I wanted to comfort her in the same way she has comforted me. But Bornstein assures us, "…for all my leanings toward self-destruction, the fact remains that for over sixty-three years, I have found a reason to go on living every day of my life."
With the brave, adventurous life she's led, Bornstein gives us a reason to keep on living, too.
Pick up a copy of A Queer and Pleasant Danger at your local independent bookstore and look for additional coverage of it in the upcoming issue of Bitch! For more information about Kate Bornstein, visit her website.

Django JavaScript Integration: AJAX and jQuery
Django JavaScript Integration: AJAX and jQuery
Book Details
About This Book
- Learn how Django + jQuery = AJAX
- Integrate your AJAX application with Django on the server side and jQuery on the client side
- Learn how to handle AJAX requests with jQuery
- Compare the pros and cons of client-side search with JavaScript and initializing a search on the server side via AJAX
- Handle login and authentication via Django-based AJAX
Who This Book Is For
This book is for people looking to integrate AJAX / JavaScript functionality into their web applications. It is for Django users who are looking to easily integrate AJAX features into their applications. Conversely, it will also be a priceless companion for users familiar with Django and jQuery who are and looking to integrate them in their AJAX applications. A working knowledge of Django and basic familiarity with AJAX and jQuery are assumed.
Table of Contents
What You Will Learn
- Learn how and why, for certain kinds of web development, Django is more 'Pythonic' than Python
- Understand whet the XMLHttpRequest Object is and how to implement it in various browsers
- Embed JavaScript in Django templates
- Learn account creation and login creation using AJAX
- Build forms using Django models
- Embed jQuery auto-complete plugins in your Django templates
- Validate form input on the server side using AJAX
- Integrate jQuery sliders into your Django template
- Minify JavaScript files and also learn the pros and cons of doing so
In Detail
You want to create an AJAX application. Why would you use Django? Why would you use jQuery? Why would you use both together? Enter Django JavaScript Integration: AJAX and jQuery – your comprehensive answer to all these questions and the only extensive, practical, and hands-on guide to developing any AJAX application with Django and jQuery.
Gone are the days when you used to lament over the lack of official documentation on AJAX with Django. This book will teach you exactly why Django is called "The web framework for perfectionists with deadlines", how jQuery – the "write less do more" JavaScript library – is practically a virtual higher-level language, and why they both deserve to be integrated with AJAX.
This hands-on-guide shows you how to put Django and jQuery together in the process of creating an AJAX application. In this book, they are brought together in a real-world scenario, with attention to usability, to build and develop an AJAX application.
The first two chapters provide a short and necessary introduction to the world of Django, jQuery, and AJAX; and the remaining chapters are based on a case study that will make you realize the immense potential and benefits of integrating Django and jQuery with your AJAX application.
By the time you are done with this book, you'll be developing your AJAX applications with Django and jQuery in less time than you can say "integrate".
You will cover the basics of AJAX; use jQuery, the commonest JavaScript library, on the client side, and learn form validation with an eye to usability, build things with Django on the server-side, handle login and authentication via Django-based AJAX, and then dip into the rich jQuery plugin ecosystem to build in-place editing into your pages. You will add auto-complete functionality courtesy of jQuery UI, easily build forms with Django ModelForm, and then look at a client-side search implementation that can look things up without network access after initial download. You will learn to Implement a simple, expandable undo system, and offer more full-blooded account management, tinker, fix some bugs, offer a more usable way to handle password input, add local time support for people who are not in your time zone, look at usability, and finally take a look at debugging.
After working through this book, you will have both an AJAX application and a deep understanding that you can use to customize, extend, and further develop it in your organization.
This book has been written and tested for Django v 1.2.3 and jQuery v 1.4.4.

"I'm back in the saddle."
This is how suspended teacher Jeff Gibbs described his enthusiastic return to the classroom Monday at Kane High School.
He wore a wide grin Monday and appeared to be elated now that he is teaching again after a 10-day suspension at the start of the school year.Â
Administrators said Monday that the extended school year and student pickups are, for the most part, running smoothy.
But several parents challenged this assertion by airing their personal complaints during a meeting of the school board's Curriculum Committee.
LUDLOW – Hamilton Township no longer will need to hire an outside contractor to mow steep banks along township roads.
Acting at a meeting Monday, the Hamilton Township Board of Supervisors voted 3-0 to purchase its own tractor and "boom" mower.
