this is how I'd describe my ideal woman:
1. I'm 5'10". She must be at least 5 inches shorter than me lest I feel inadequate.
2. She must be willing to walk 3 steps behind me at all times. I'm a man and I deserve respect.
3. She can't have graduated from high school, and should have as little common sense as possible; must prefer unprotected and/or rough sex to other types.
4. Has blonde hair and blue eyes.
5. She must also have at least a D cup; I like fake boobies very much
6. Must be willing to cook, clean my house, do the dishes, iron and wash my clothes, dress and undress me whenever I need her to, and to make sure the taxes and bills get paid.
7. Must be too stupid to use a computer; I've never hit a girl before, but if I ever catch her typing 'rm -rf /'...
8. She must have lots and lots of money and should be willing to put it all into my accounts under my name (and out of reach of her dirty little paws).
That, my friends, would be my ideal woman. ;D

I wouldn't believe how big Maggie's feet are except that I just knit her pretty big socks and they fit. I estimated her foot size when she was away at school and I thought maybe her feet were about 5″ around and 6″ long. WRONG. Her feet are more than 7″ around and 7.25″ long. The socks seem too big when I am looking at them but they fit her perfectly. I am so confused. When did she become not a baby?
It was gorgeous outside today after school, so she played with her new pocket knife at the picnic table and posed her feet for some pictures. It was cute. I love the pictures.
As much as I'd like to deny it, Jerry has big feet, too. If not big for his age, at least bigger than I expect them to be. I am taking no chances with him, so I had him trace the outline of his foot and measure the circumference of his foot and ankle. He picked out the yarn (blue and gray from the stash, good stuff) and hopefully everyone will have toasty warm toes if, by chance, it ever gets cold here in North Carolina.
More information about yarn and pattern can be found on Ravelry.

Dodge Caliber 2007-2010, Catch-It™ Vinyl Floor Liners by Lund®. Protect your valuable carpet from mud, snow, spilled drinks, food, kids and pets with Catch-It Vinyl Floor Mats. They're custom molded to perfectly fit your floor, have a raised perimeter to contain liquid, and feature deep channels to channel and trap water, mud, and debris away from your shoes and pant legs. The raised nibs will ensure your mats stay securely in place until it's time for cleaning, when they can be removed and rinsed off with a garden hose.
- Ultimate floor protection
- Custom molded to the contours of your vehicle's floor for a perfect fit
- Generous size provides full coverage
- Molded, reinforced, raised perimeter to contain liquid
- Deep channels trap water, mud, and debris away from shoes and pant legs
- Aggressively nibbed underside ensures mats stay firmly in place at all times
- Cleans easily by rinsing with water
- Flexible enough to conform to floor but heavy-duty to resist heat, chemicals, stains
- Reinforced foot/heal area for driver's foot
- Rugged, durable construction for lasting, lifetime performance
- Available for 1st row and 2nd row seating areas
- Comes in black, gray, or tan
- Backed by a limited lifetime warranty
- Proudly made in the USA
The name says it all – Catch-It floor mats are designed to catch anything that falls, be it rainwater, snow, mud, spilled drinks, or French fries, and keep it from landing on and damaging your vehicle's carpet. To ensure these mats don't miss a drop, they're generously dimensioned and custom molded to fit every contour of your vehicle's floor, and feature a molded, reinforced, raised perimeter to contain liquid and keep it from running out onto your carpet. The interior surface has raised ridges to scrape debris from shoes, and deep channels to channel and trap water, mud, and other debris away from your shoes and pant legs to keep them clean and dry.
No matter how well designed a contour fit floor mat may be, it's useless unless it stays in place, no matter how aggressive the foot traffic. To ensure your mats stay where they belong, they have long nibs on the underside and are equipped to use the factory hook latch, if applicable. Constructed from the perfect material for floor mats, they're flexible, yet rugged and durable, attractive, yet resistant to grease, oil, and most common chemicals, and completely recyclable. When cleaning is necessary, just remove your mats, rinse off with a garden hose and let dry.
Catch-It Vinyl Floor Mats come sized for 1st row and 2nd row seating areas, in your choice of black, gray, or tan. They're covered by a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty applies to the original purchaser as long as he or she owns the vehicle on which the product is installed.69.67 78.57

Dear Members,

Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
wanted to trey it how is it
You forgot the eye
Maybe color it Purple,Red,or Black.
Not Blue.
lol if the manga is colored, i would stop downloading animes.
I think the moon is supposed to be red, it would make the picture look much more ominous, but I like the color you used for the juubi. not to shabby
i like it...except for the ground..
It needs shading and lighting (if the moon is yellow, that would mean it reflects a yelow-ish light). Also, since it seems it's night, the shades would need to be deep and strong.
About the colors: The Juubi as ya want it, but the ground has a very bright and unsaturated color, wich does not balance the image.
i wasnt tryin to harrd with the land scap to be honest
You did a Really nice Job coloring it
I have never coloured any image on the base so all i can say is nice job.

State snowmobile grant-in-aid money to help clubs maintain trails in the north country has fallen 26 percent from last year with the passage of a resolution Tuesday by the Jefferson County Board of Legislators to accept $53,135 from the state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation for the program.
Thats down from $72,110 in 2011-12 and $98,925 during the programs height in 2008-09.
The money, awarded on a use-it-or-lose-it reimbursement plan, is distributed by Jefferson County, the states partner in administering the program, to four local clubs: Winona Forest Recreation Association, Barnes Corners Sno-Pals Snowmobile Club, Thousand Islands Snowmobile Club and Missing Link Snowmobile Club, Carthage.
The snowmobiling industry, which has a statewide annual economic impact of $868 million, according to a study commissioned by the New York State Snowmobilers Association, lost a step after last years mild winter and is trying to recover.
Gary R. Stinson, president of the Barnes Corners Sno-Pals and alternate NYSSA regional director for Lewis County, said the cost of the program isnt borne by taxpayers. Instead, money comes from the registration fees snowmobilers pay to use their sleds in the state. It costs $100 to register a snowmobile on your own or $45 if you pay an additional $25 to join a club. A portion of that money goes toward Department of Motor Vehicles costs while the majority goes toward a dedicated trail fund. Anyone wishing to ride a snowmobile in New York must register it with the state.
Snowmobile registrations were down by approximately 40,000 last year, Mr. Stinson said.
Money is disbursed according to the number of miles of trail in a county, with 163 miles in Jefferson.
Mismanagement of the program landed Franklin and Herkimer counties in hot water after the state comptroller found evidence of improperly redirected funds and the practice of paying some volunteers. Lewis and St. Lawrence counties were mildly criticized while Jefferson County went unmentioned with an ostensibly clean record.
Last year, Jefferson County requested $12,000 less than its allotted amount from the state after it became clear the Winona Forest and Missing Link clubs couldnt document enough activities because of the light snow cover, according to county planner Andrew R. Nevin, the official who manages the program.
The state appreciates honesty and doing things the right way, he said. If you do it right, its a good program.
The accuracy of GPS units installed on groomers has increased accountability, even to the point of reducing trail mileage in the county.
Carolyn K. Rees, president of the Winona Forest Recreation Association, said the money is employed year-round to maintain and groom trails, build bridges, remove logs, install stone culverts, trim face slapper branches from the trail and fix water holes in the summer.
Maintenance is extremely important, Mr. Stimson said. Snowmobilers will not ride otherwise. They expect trails to be groomed.
While the Christmas snowfall engendered optimism for 2013, a pending onslaught of spring-like conditions over the next week threatens to hamper the process of getting trails back to normal.
Ms. Rees said the club shouldnt take too big of a hit this year, but the future is uncertain if the warm weather trend continues.
Clubs in the Tug Hill region benefit from operating in a high-snow area. The outlook is graver for areas that dont receive as much annual snowfall.
Two or three years like last year and we would definitely be hurting and probably wouldnt even exist. said Jerri E. Lothrop, president of the Thousand Islands Snowmobile Club.
Before this weekends foreboding forecast highs could reach into the 40s for three or four days entered the picture, the enthusiasm for winter sports was in full swing.
Ms. Rees said the parking lot for trails at Winona Forest has been packed the past couple of weekends, with overflow spilling into at least two adjacent lots.
The place is crazy, she said.
Mr. Lothrop said the Thousand Islands trails were well used but not overly crowded.
Despite his prediction the club would no longer exist if the warm weather continued, Mr. Lothrop said he believed the trend of having occasional warm spells throughout the winter has been happening since the 1990s.
We have shirts that say Think snow, he said. Were always praying for snow up here.

WADDINGTON The St. Lawrence River Showdown Committee will hold an informational meeting on the Bass Anglers Sportsman Societys Bass Elite Tournament at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Hepburn Library community room.
We want to encourage everyone in the surrounding villages and towns and especially residents and businesses in Waddington to attend so that they know what to expect the week of the tournament, Mayor Janet M. Otto-Cassada said Thursday.
Questions could concern the amount of anglers the festival will have, how to rent your house for the festival, how businesses can sponsor events and the security aspects of events going on throughout the week, the mayor said.
The national bass fishing tournament will take place Aug. 8 to 11, with a weeks worth of events scheduled around the competition. The tournament is expected to draw thousands of people to northern St. Lawrence County.
St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Patricia L. McKeown and her staff also will be on hand to answer questions.

While it doesn't necessarily beat the Kindle Paperwhite, the $119 Nook GlowLight is an excellent e-reader that's strongly worth considering if you don't want to buy into the Amazon ecosystem.
Looking for an e-book reader? You have more choices than ever before--though the number of models we at CNET can enthusiastically recommend is actually pretty short.
With its more portable design, the Kobo Aura is a worthwhile -- albeit pricier -- Kindle Paperwhite alternative for EPUB fans who don't want to be tied to Amazon's proprietary ecosystem.
While the "all-new" Paperwhite may seem like an unspectacular upgrade on the surface, it's a clear improvement over the original Paperwhite and arguably the best e-reader currently available.
Find out how to load photos and documents onto your Kindle, access your Highlights and more.
Although it starts at a pricey $199, the Kindle Voyage's slim design, sharper display and even better lighting scheme make it an attractive high-end e-reader.
Why carry around one book when you can carry around thousands? Check out our top tablet and e-reader picks for avid readers.
Amazon's entry-level $79 Kindle is the company's most affordable touchscreen e-reader to date and is only missing one key feature.
Kindle name is dropped from Amazon's family of tablets to strengthen ties to the rest of its burgeoning hardware line.
Listings for the Kindle Voyage indicate Amazon is planning to offer the device in the next couple of months. It could come with a 6-inch screen and a new way to move to the next page.

Reviews for Pumpkin & Sausage Penne
Sort By :
"Wonderful! This was quick and easy to make. The pumpkin makes the dish different, but the Romano MAKES the dish. I am mildly allergic to milk, but was able to use Silk Soy Creamer as a substitute. I had no sub for the cheese, however so I used it sparingly on my portion. I used stock instead of broth, ground Italian sausage and unoaked chardonnay. Even my 2-1/2 year old loved it!"
"This is different. I doubled the recipe, used Italian chicken sausage and evaporated milk instead of cream. I liked it a lot."
"I double this recipie just to have leftovers!"
"Very good! I have been in the mood trying new recipes lately. This was a nice change from the usual. I served it with steamed asparagus."
"sending this recipe to my family to make too! We didnt use the sage due to young children eating it as well. YUM!"

Comments about Salomon S-Lab Fellcross Shoe (Men's):
Perfect tool for trail running in mountain conditions. Fit is precise. Lacing system easy and effective. Break-in quickly. As expected they improve grip and the low weight is fantastic. Thin soles give great feedback from the ground but sufficiently protect against pain without sacrificing feel. Most surprising and impressive is the grip advantage in downhills on slick loose dirt, rocks and mud. These soles grip amazingly well allowing for fast and furious descents. The grip and lightweight is helpful in climbs as well. They're expensive, but worth it if you're serious about mountain running. I'd almost venture to say these are ESSENTIAL equipment.

Best Uses
Comments about Salomon S-Lab Fellcross Shoe (Men's):
I've tried on the Speedcross and some others. Speedcross compared to the Fellcross: Fellcross seemed more flexible and allows for a much cleaner forefoot/mid-foot landing to promote a quick cadence. Cadence is very important to me. I love to run fast! I usually run at 180 steps per min. When the shoes is stiff, It just doesn't feel right. It seems like most trails shoes I get are much too stiff. I now have three pair of La Sportivas, and two pair of Montrails. They were all too stiff for me. I stopped wearing them because I felt like I was starting to get injured.
I also love the decreased heel drop in the Fellcross. I am a healthy runner and I'm trying to keep it that way. After some runs I will do 2 to 4 mile barefoot or in my five fingers (which I love).
My first few runs in the Fellcross worried me a little. The crease forms rub my left arch the wrong way. I try to loosen them and break them in, but it wouldn't stop. Blister!!! I never had blister there before. I was sad because I like these shoes a lot. Then I put and extra shoe insert and No more blister! The shoe was great after that. Now, every time I am off road it's Fellcross.
I ran and won the UpChuck 50k, Lookout Mt 50miler, & Mt. Cheaha 50k in them. I had no blister or problems. I feel very strong and fast in them. Light Muscle! Like it!
I hope this helps you. I do like the Speedcross but love the Fellcross for racing. I wish you healthy running. I highly recommended the Fellcross for fast, neural runners.

Results tagged "Smartphone" from IABlog
As both a founding supporter of the IAB Mobile Center of Excellence and a technology media company, IDG has a special interest in trying to better understand buyers and sellers. Numerous research reports have chronicled the explosive adoption of mobile devices but for mobile advertising to accelerate, it is critical to identify buyer behaviors and, most importantly, buyer preferences. To that end, a recent IDG Global Solutions (IGS) online survey asked people in 43 countries how they use their mobile devices at work and when shopping.
The IGS survey of more than 25,000 tech professionals and tech enthusiasts provides revealing insights into the importance of mobile in the buying process, the perception of mobile advertising, and the behavioral shifts brought on by rapid adoption rates for both tablets and smartphones. The spring 2013 online research reveals that today's mobile audience is highly engaged, always on, is increasingly receptive to mobile ads, and uses tablets and smartphones at each stage of the purchase process including buying!
Personal and Work Lives Converge
Much has been written about the dramatic adoption rates for connected devices and mobile becoming the preferred channel for the tech savvy. However, the mobile momentum and ever-changing interaction with technology has led to major behavioral shifts. Users have migrated from the established separation of work and play toward an "always on" mentality reflected in the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) to work trend. Today, the lines between private lives and work are being erased with 41% of smartphone users and 37% of tablet users saying that they use privately purchased smartphones and tablets as business devices. The figures rise steeply in emerging regions such as Asia Pacific and Latin America where over 60% of respondents use their own devices on their work networks. Many of the respondents are among the most tech savvy, a group that serves as an early indicator of what is to come with the general population.
Mobile Users Are Active Shoppers
The findings show that this 24/7 audience is actively searching for and recommending products, interacting with vendors and, importantly, is open to mobile advertising: when asked which formats they are most likely to engage with the IGS survey participants cited email, coupons, and location-based advertising.
Last year's IGS research revealed that connected devices are an integral part of working life. This year the survey focused more on which work activities are performed regularly on mobile devices. Smartphones and tablets are crucial tools starting with information collection and ending with a purchase.
At the product research stage 47% of all smartphone users and 67% of tablet users collect information with their devices. It is important to highlight that 40% of all smartphone users visit tech vendor sites in this process; therefore, mobile optimization is crucial for vendors. A positive mobile experience will impact brand perception and thus the final purchase as 30% of survey respondents said that they would not make a purchase with their smartphone if a site is not mobile optimized. The next stage — price comparison and checking with peers on social networks and forums — is also a tablet and smartphone activity. But most importantly, the audience is buying with their connected devices (73% of tablet users and 56% of smartphone users make purchases on their devices ). More surprisingly, nearly a quarter of professionals and tech enthusiasts make business purchases via their smartphones, while 21% make business purchases with their tablets.
Video Consumption for Entertainment and Work
Not only have technology platforms changed, different content formats are also preferred by mobile users in comparison to the wired web. Ninety percent of all tablet users said they watch video content on their device (up from 66% in 2012) while 67% indicated that they watch videos on their small-screen smartphones. Most interesting from a marketer's point of view is the fact that users do not just watch YouTube videos and movies but also access vendor content and reviews. One-third of all respondents watch promotional videos on their tablets and 40% view videos/webcasts related to their jobs.
The many years and predictions of "this is the year of mobile" are over. Mobile adoption rates have soared for a few years as shipments of PCs continue to decline. Marketers and media companies must respond to their prospects and audiences as they accelerate their reliance on mobile devices for interaction, entertainment, and purchase activities.

by Alastair Dant, Tom Davis & David Gunn (UK/USA)
The sounds of Manchester, for you to remix. Manchester : Peripheral
is an interactive SoundMap that uses physical workshops and virtual
interfaces to allow individuals to create their own "folk songs".
It creates a constantly evolving audio portrait of the area and an
intimate guide to the urban landscape. Sounds and musics contributed
by local people are remixed via an online SoundMap, with a physical
installation in development for 2007. Visitors to the website are
encouraged to save and share their mixes and to submit their own
sounds for inclusion on the site, creating an ongoing relationship of
collaborative creativity with the wider community. Looking beyond the
city centre, Manchester : Peripheral delves deep into the musical
culture of four wards across the Manchester's metropolitan borough,
celebrating a far more diverse and complex image of Manchester.
Manchester : Peripheral is one in a series of ongoing works by the
Folk Songs Project using digital art, community engagement and audio
recordings to explore individual and collective identity in regions
across the world.

Slavery's Ephemera
Slavery's Ephemera
By Judith Jackson Fossett
Design by Erik Loyer
From Editors' Introduction
Nearly 150 years after the height of the plantation South, the presumed �romance� of the era still seems to hold sway in the American national imaginary. Tourism at plantation sites has surged in recent years. The visitor to these locales surveys a very particular past, for tour guides typically focus on architectural spectacle and period furnishings as they sketch a specific (and usually white-washed) history of ephemeral southern grandeur. The visiting tourist is powerfully positioned within a mise-en-scene of imagined hospitality, an immersive experience underwritten both by the mansions� scale and lush settings and by the simultaneous erasure of virtually all traces of slavery. The visitor is swept into a stage set ripe for fantasy, creating a powerful scene for the projection of romance and structuring a sort of mobility through an imagined space of history. This fantasy unfolds in an isolated temporal and geographic zone, narrativized as separate in space and time, a lost moment reflecting a �gentler� past that mustn�t be disturbed by the ghostly presence of the slave. These tours serve to freeze the possible meanings of the South, the plantation, and the past along very narrow registers.

Another entry in our range of unabridged readings of "Classic Doctor Who" novelisations, first published by Target Books in the 1970s & 1980s. "Doctor Who" is strangely concerned about Professor Horner's plan to cut open an ancient barrow near the peaceful English village of Devil's End; equally worried is Miss Hawthorne, the local white witch, who foretells a terrible disaster if he goes ahead. Determined that the Professor should is Mr Magister, the new vicar whose secret ceremonies are designed to conjure up from out of the barrow a horribly powerful being from a far-off planet...The Brigadier and Jo Grant assist Doctor Who in this exciting confrontation with the forces of black magic!

|Petition to save golf course in Seven Devils
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Tuesday, 12 June 2007 10:10
The following is a copy of the petition submitted by the citizens' group for the proposed eminent domain action by the town regarding the golf course at Seven Devils.The following does not reflect the opinions of Aisling Broadcasting.
The Town of Seven Devils "Vision Statement" begins:
"The Town of Seven Devils is a residential and recreational community whose citizens and governance are committed to managing its growth, with a primary focus on owner-occupied single-family homes and on the preservation and enhancement of the distinctive and irreplaceable natural beauty of its mountain setting."
A year ago the owners of the golf course property in Seven Devils, for their sole benefit, closed the golf course and put up "NO TRESPASSING" signs
Denying access by the citizens of Seven Devils, reducing the summer recreational acreage by 89% and significantly reducing property values in the Town. The Town has done a good job of preventing major destructive construction on the property but has done little to secure the land from further destruction, or to return it to the public recreational use inherent in the vision statement or to recover the property value loss of Seven Devils Citizens. The matter is now before the Town Council for consideration. Public ownership of the property is an important option that the Town should explore and keep open to be ready if needed to protect those qualities put forth in the "Vision Statement" and to recover and protect the property values of all the Seven Devils citizens. The Town Council should not be coward by the bullying of a few away from their duty to protect the vast majority of Seven Devils citizens from damage and the environmental gem in their charge.
The undersigned request that the Town Council continue to explore the possibility of public ownership of the golf course property in Seven Devils.

The Great Egg HuntThe Spring Collector wants you to get 20 shell fragments.
|Brightly Colored Shell Fragment (20)
DescriptionNoblegarden, celebration of life and spring! I hope you've been enjoying the egg hunt, friend, because I could use the services of a capable individual like you.
I'm not certain what form of magic was used in the creation of the eggs, and the druids aren't keen on explaining it to me. Perhaps you could collect some shell fragments for me during your egg collection. You can keep the contents of the eggs; all I require is a sufficient sample of the eggs themselves.
Do you have the fragments?
Excellent, excellent, thank you! I may need more of a sample to get truly conclusive results, but you've done well today.

Colin Slade finishes brilliant Highlanders team try against the Sharks
The Highlanders scored one of the tries of the season as they picked up their long overdue first win of the 2013 Super Rugby campaign. They beat the Sharks 25-22 on Saturday in a match that produced a thrilling second half of rugby.
Dunedin breathed a sigh of relief after eighty-odd minutes that resulted in the Highlanders' first victory in 12 games, the longest losing streak by any New Zealand franchise.
It was a special occasion for Brad Thorn, who was playing his 100th game of Super Rugby, after playing 92 for the Crusaders before making the move back from Dublin to join the Highlanders.
He ended the game off the field after having been yellow carded under relentless pressure from the Sharks, but it was all smiles at the final whistle, well into added time, as Hosea Gear smashed Keegan Daniel five meters out as the visitors came with wave after wave of attack.
"I've got to say, I haven't been that excited for just a round-robin game in my whole career. It was a massive moment," delighted 37-year-old Thorn said post match.
Each side scored three tries, all of high quality, but Colin Slade landed an extra penalty, proving the difference. It was Slade who crossed earlier in the game for a sensational try, following a great break from Ben Smith and some superb support play by prop Chris King.
The Sharks scored a great try themselves, from the restart, including multiple phases of play and about five minutes of possession, but this one from Slade was without a doubt the try of the match.

Obviously offense is really impressive in this championship, but i mean, ofcourse it is, since the ref doesnt take any decision against the attacking team...

The assumption is that because Walsh lets an occasional infringement go then he must have missed it. No, he probably saw it but decided that it had no effect on the run of play. Most of the ruck work was entirely legit, and as always there were some dodgy moves too, but it's pointless to stop the game every time someone goes off his feet while cleaning out. It happens all the time in both hemispheres and such an attitude by refs would just kill the game stone dead. Often the ball is already won and the next phase is about to start, let them play. If he needs to, the ref can have a little word on the run to keep a player honest. Walsh refs like that and that's why he's one of the best. I watched this whole enjoyable hard-fought game and I don't think he missed much at all.

Thursday, November 08, 2012
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Lipscomb volleyball team finishes its last regular season Atlantic Sun Conference weekend on the road against Florida Gulf Coast Friday at 5 p.m. and Stetson Saturday at 1 p.m.
FGCU (20-8, 15-1 A-Sun) was the only team to defeat the Lady Bisons (17-10, 14-2 A-Sun) in the first half of the A-Sun schedule on Oct. 12 in Allen Arena in a 3-0 (28-26, 25-22, 25-23) sweep to snap the Lady Bisons 29-home conference match win streak.
"One of the things we've done well since the last time we played them was to learn from our mistakes," Lipscomb head coach Brandon Rosenthal said. "I'm pleased with, not only the leadership, but where the team has gone in these past three or four weeks.
"Gulf Coast is a tremendous team that is having an awesome year. Where they challenge a lot of people is their balance and their attack offensively. They've got six really good offensive players that you've got to keep track of."
The Lady Bisons hold an 8-3 record against the Eagles and are 7-1 in the last eight meetings.
The Eagles are led by Jim Hopper with 289 kills, Gigi Meyer with 606 assists and Whitney Masters with 364 digs.
The Lady Bisons swept Stetson (4-29, 0-16 A-Sun) 3-0 (25-13, 25-19,25-14) on Oct. 13 in Allen Arena. LU set a school record in the match with a hitting percentage of .489 (50 kills-6 errors-90 total attacks).
"That's Stetson's last match of the season and I'm sure they will be gunning for us," Rosenthal said. "That's always dangerous. We will be on our toes. It's always a tricky place to play."
The Lady Bisons hold an 11-1 record against the Hatters and have an 11-match winning streak.
Kaley Melville with 330 kills, Kelli Cameal with 550 assists and Monique Russell with 484 digs leads the Hatters.
The Lady Bisons had a perfect 3-0 record last week to extend their winning streak to six.
LU swept Northern Kentucky on Tuesday night 3-0 (25-18, 25-18, 25-22). It was the first sweep against NKU this season. Libero Stephanie Rex's last dig against the Norse was her 1,000th of her career.
LU defeated Kennesaw State Friday night 3-1 (25-19, 25-16, 22-25, 25-20) on Senior Day to keep its perfect 11-0 record against the Owls.
The Lady Bisons finished the week with a sweep of Mercer 3-0 (25-11, 25-17, 25-18) to maintain their nine-match winning streak over the Bears.
"Over the last three matches, I saw our offense becoming more crisp each time," Rosenthal said. "I thought our serve was tremendous."
Outside hitter Lauren Ford was named the Tennessee Sports Writers Association Player of the Week for volleyball on Tuesday for her efforts last week.
Ford led the team with 44 kills, 29 digs and 53.0 points. Ford added seven serve aces, three assists and three total blocks. The sophomore had 4.40 kills per set, 5.30 points per set and 2.90 digs per set.
The Lenexa, Kan., native had a career-high and a match-high 23 kills against Kennesaw State and added 10 digs for her eighth double-double on the season. Ford had a hitting percentage of .442 had 27.5 points and tied a career-high four serve aces against the Owls.
Ford added eight kills and 11 digs against NKU and had 13 kills and eight digs against Mercer.
Setter Caitlin Dotson also had an impressive week. Dotson had 11 kills, 134 assists, 29 digs and three serve aces. Dotson had 1.10 kills per set, 13.40 assists per set and a 2.90 digs per set.
The junior had two double-doubles and at least 40 assists in each match last week. Dotson had 40 assists and 11 digs against NKU. The Louisville, Ky., native added five kills, one shy of her career-high.
Dotson had 40 assists and 12 digs against Mercer. That was her 11 double-double on the season and 24th of her career. Dotson had 54 assists against KSU.
Dotson leads the A-Sun with 11.60 assists per set, which ranks 13th in the NCAA.
Middle blocker Molly Spitznagle had her best week of her early college career with 28 kills, .370 hitting percentage, four digs and six total blocks.
The freshman had a career-high 15 kills against NKU and a hitting percentage of .542.
"As a freshman, she's doing fantastic work," Rosenthal said of Spitznagle. "We want her to continue to play with confidence. Molly's going to be one of these physical threats for years to come. What we are seeing right now is great progression and that's important."
Up next for the Lady Bisons is the A-Sun tournament held in Allen Arena from Nov. 15-17. The Lady Bisons and FGCU have clinched a bye in the semifinal round.
ETSU and North Florida are the only other two teams to have punched their tickets to the A-Sun tournament. Only two spots remain to be settled this weekend.

Students who are not on track for college and career readiness by eighth grade are unlikely to attain the level of preparedness by high school graduation.
Compiled by ACT Inc., the Forgotten Middle report's findings suggest that the level of academic achievement students attain by eighth grade has a more significant impact on whether the youth are ready for college and career by the time they graduate than any single factor examined by the organization's researchers.
The factors examined by researchers included courses taken by the students, grades earned in high school and demographic characteristics such as gender, race and household income.
"Eighth grade is a critical defining point for students in the college and career planning process," indicated Cynthia Schmeiser, president and chief operating officer of ACT's education division. "If students are not on target for college and career readiness by the time they reach this point, the impact may be nearly irreversible."
The research report findings suggest that few United States eighth graders are currently on target to be ready for college level work by the time they graduate from high school.
Only 16 percent of the recent high school graduates studied in ACT's research had met or surpassed the organization's college readiness benchmarks in all four subject areas - English, math, reading and science - on the eighth grade assessment of academic skills.
Students who meet the benchmarks are on target to be college ready by the time they graduate from high school.
College readiness in students is defined by the ACT having the likelihood of earning a C grade or better in first year college courses in the four designated subject areas.
Conversely, the organization's recently released research report suggests that being on target for college and career readiness by the eighth grade puts students on a trajectory for success in high school and beyond.
The ACT researchers studied three groups of eighth graders - students who were on target, students who barely missed being on target and students who were more substantially off target.
The results indicate that students who were on target in eighth grade were ready for college and career by their junior or senior year of high school, noted the ACT representatives.
"The implications of this research are clear," pointed out Schmeiser. "If we want to improve college readiness among U.S. high school graduates, we need to intervene before students reach high school, in upper elementary and middle school. The findings impact not only how we prepare students leading up to high school but in what strategic ways we intervene with those who are behind academically in high school. Both elements are critical for ensuring that our high school grads are ready for college and career. Our students deserve it, and our nation demands it."
The need to build the foundation for college and career readiness before high school is a topic that has, at times, been overshadowed on a crowded education reform agenda, indicated the ACT representatives.Â
One notable recent focus on reform has been in U.S. president-elect Barack Obama's education plan, pointed out ACT representatives.
The plan places significant emphasis on improving high school achievement and graduation rates by reforming education in the upper elementary and middle school grades.
Obama's plan would also require states to develop early warning systems that identify at-risk students in grades five through eight and provide interventions that help the students succeed, continued the organization's representatives.
The latest ACT research report suggests that the impact of the problem extends beyond college preparation to the American workforce and the national economy.
"The skills necessary for entry into the majority of the fastest growing jobs that require a high school diploma and offer a livable wage are comparable to those needed for success in first-year college courses," pointed out Schmeiser. "In the context of our current economic challenges, we should be targeting eighth grade readiness as a key benchmark for our nation's ability to produce a workforce that is ready to succeed and compete in the global economy. The findings suggest we have a long way to go to ensure that outcome."
ACT's nationwide longitudinal research study followed approximately 216,000 students in the U.S. graduating classes of 2005 and 2006 from eighth grade through high school graduation, explained the organization.
All of the students had taken three curriculum-based assessments in the organization's college readiness system.
The assessments included EXPLORE for eighth-graders, PLAN for 10th graders and the ACT college admission and placement exam.
The findings indicate that eighth grade academic achievement provides a better predictor of eventual college and career readiness than any other single factor studied by the ACT researchers.
Along with eighth grade academic achievement, the factors studied by the researchers included the students' background characteristics, courses taken in high school, grades earned in high school and the testing behaviors of the youth.
Schmeiser pointed out that high school-level interventions such as taking more rigorous courses, studying harder, and earning higher grades in high school can help to improve students' level of readiness by the time they graduate.
"Students who aren't on track for readiness by eighth grade will have a very difficult time making up all of the ground they have lost. Without sufficient preparation prior to high school, students can't maximize the benefits of academic enhancements while they are there," cautioned the ACT representative.
In addition, the organization's research study found that improving certain behaviors of middle school students can help increase their readiness for college and career by the time they graduate.
Two academic behaviors were found to have the greatest impact on eighth grade course failure and ninth grade grade point average.
The behaviors included academic discipline like good work and study habits along with orderly conduct like acting appropriately in classrooms.
ACT's report lays out the specific knowledge and skills in English, math, reading and science that students must attain by the end of eighth grade in order to be on target for college and career success.
The research report also offers several recommendations to educators and policy makers on how to improve college and career readiness among high school graduates.
The ACT recommendations included:
â¢Focusing on kindergarten through eighth grade standards on the knowledge and skills that are essential for college and career readiness. Making the standards non-negotiable for all students.
â¢Monitoring student progress toward college and career readiness beginning in upper elementary school and continuing through middle school.
â¢Intervening with students who are not on target.
â¢Improving students' academic behaviors like completing homework, complying with attendance guidelines and mastering the aspects of academic discipline.
â¢Increasing federal and state support for schools to implement intervention programs that help all students prepare to become ready for college and careers.

Last week several brands made the news because of their recent advertising efforts. Two found themselves backpedaling away from controversy while one embraced past mistakes to claim a fresh start. But this wasn't just about creative choices – those are always subjective – it was about having (or not having) an understanding of culture, not just your core customer.
Hyundai had to pull a spot in which a man tries to commit suicide by inhaling the exhaust fumes from his car, only to be thwarted because his Hyundai has 100% water emission instead of deadly carbon monoxide. In a perfect vacuum, one could see the cleverness of the idea, but ads don't exist in a vacuum and the tide started rolling against Hyundai when a blogger wrote an open-letter to the car manufacturer and their ad agency explaining her feelings about the ad. Her father had successfully taken his own life in that way. Just a few days later, a study from the CDC was released showing that the suicide rates among middle-aged Americans has risen sharply. The New York Times in fact called out that data shows "[M]ore people now die of suicide than in car accidents." Adding another macabre element to an ad that shows a man trying to take his own life with the aid of his vehicle. I'm not providing a link to the ad in question because it has been taken down.
Mountain Dew also had to deal with a controversial ad last week. A spot directed by Tyler the Creator, the front man of rap collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All. Now, Odd Future is not everyone's cup of tea, and Tyler's twitter account is not for the faint of heart (very NSFW). They are however quite popular with Mtn. Dew's target consumer so getting Tyler and Co. to put together a spot makes sense. Again, I'm not linking to the spot because it has been taken down, but it involves a police lineup featuring four African-American males (all played by members of Odd Future) and a talking goat. So, yes, it's absurdism, but it's also an all African-American police lineup, which probably isn't going to go over to well with some people. The ad also features an bruised and battered white female, who is being asked to identify the perpetrator of her injuries. It's in fact the goat, who verbally threatens her to the point where she refuses to make an identification. Again, yes, absurd, but a setup in which a white woman has been badly beaten but is too scared to speak up and she looks at a group of African-Americans (and yes, the goat) is a bad idea. Really bad.
Both cases seem to me to be ones in which the brand was a little too insulated from culture. They seemed to lack a certain awareness of bigger issues that are shaping the public discourse, and when you put something out in public, it's no longer "just for our fans," it's quickly available for everyone to see.
JC Penney, the newest client of Y&R New York, had a different problem. After trying several new business ideas they realized that their customers were not buying into the "new JC Penney." Their response was a video I can show you. Nearly 1 million views in less than a week plus a lot of earned media and massive amounts of chatter in social media channels. Was all of it positive? No, but this spot wasn't meant to be a solution, just a start. It was a brand saying, "Hey we tried something, it didn't work, and we value your opinion as our customers."
I didn't graduate from Wharton business school, but I'd wager you could probably make an argument for the changes JC Penney tried to implement over the last 16 months or so. But that ultimately wasn't the point. JC Penney shoppers have a certain mindset and set of behaviors and whether or not those are rational or irrational is besides the point. Nobody wants to be told, "no, you're wrong for thinking the way you do." So rather than just quietly make the switch, JCP stood up and owned their 'mistakes' and addressed their critics and fans in an honest and straightforward manner. When you put out a video that does that, you're far more likely to get the benefit of the doubt.
It's not always possible to see every possible interpretation of an ad when you are making it, but putting it through a lens that goes beyond the creative and approaches it from a cultural perspective can have a lot of value.
