Searching for the perfect pair of jeans is akin to finding a needle in a haystack: a tortuous and tedious process. The questions start piling up quickly-do you want something fitted or flared, dark or distressed, slouchy or snug-plus, with so many denim brands out there, simply familiarizing yourself with all the options is a potentially endless task! In the hopes of making your quest a little more manageable, we decided to ask five influential editors to share their personal denim picks and got them to explain why they love these styles now. Read on for the inside scoop from fashion's front lines, as Bazaar's Joanna Hillman, Marie Claire's Taylor Tomasi Hill, Glamour's Susan Cernek, Teen Vogue's Mary Kate Steinmiller, and ELLE's Jade Frampton share their go-to jeans in this installment of Editors' Picks. Start rejoicing now: there's not a jegging in the bunch...!
Joanna Hillman / Harper's Bazaar, Senior Fashion Market Editor
J Brand 2345 Lexington Jeans ($167) in Pure
While jeans with ultralow-rise silhouettes and heavy distressing have enjoyed a certain popularity for a few seasons (nay, years!), Bazaar's Senior Fashion Market Editor Joanna Hillman is currently captivated by an entirely different look. Her denim of choice is a vintage-inspired, extreme boot cut jean with a clean, dark wash-J Brand's 2345 Lexington, to be specific. "It's been a while since I sported a high-waisted flare jean, but I am ready for them again this fall," she says. While the style is admittedly a departure from Hillman's typical picks, she already knows exactly how she'll wear them. "I will probably pair these jeans with something a little preppy," she says. What does that mean exactly? "My J. Crew black and white gingham button-down shirt (tucked in to show off the high waist of the jean), a big gold watch, and a high-heel bootie." The esteemed editor's styling plan is perfect, so do yourself a favor and follow her instructions exactly-you won't regret it!
Taylor Tomasi Hill / Marie Claire, Style & Accessories Director
My Lovely Jeans Trash Baggy Jeans ($150)
When selecting the perfect pair of jeans, there are always three things to consider: the cut, the wash, and how they fit. The order of importance is usually variable-depending on the wearer's whims-but for Marie Claire's Taylor Tomasi Hill, one aspect takes top priority. "My denim philosophy is that ease and comfort are always best," she says, which explains her adoration for the French brand My Lovely Jeans and their slouchiest denim option, which are available exclusively online at yoox.com. "These boyfriend jeans are the perfect balance between style and effortlessness," she says. "You can definitely wear them everyday." That's high praise from the much-photographed editor: don't sleep on her advice! We encourage you to create a TTH-inspired outfit around these jeans, which means styling them with generous amounts of statement jewelry, wildly cool ankle boots, and the editor's signature cat-eye sunglasses. We can't promise you'll become Tommy Ton's new favorite or get your own thread on the Fashion Spot, but it's a start.
Mary Kate Steinmiller/ Teen Vogue, Fashion Market Editor
TEXTILE Elizabeth and James Joni Cropped Flare Jeans ($235)
Oh, how we adore Mary Kate Steinmiller's style sensibilities! Whether it's through her work-she's the Fashion Market Editor for Teen Vogue, one of our favorite magazines-or simply via her own personal wardrobe choices, we never fail to appreciate the way this darling dresser puts clothes together. Obviously we were eager to learn what her must-have jean is for fall and happily her answer did not disappoint! Right now Steinmiller's go-to pick is the Joni Jean by TEXTILE Elizabeth and James, a style she approves of for three reasons. "I love that these slouchy jeans are cropped at an unconventional above-the-ankle length and have a bit of fray," Steinmiller says. And if that's not enough for you, consider the final factor: the way they feel. "The denim is so incredibly soft and worn-in," she says. "It feels like wearing next to nothing!" That's all the convincing we need! If you're ready to follow in Steinmiller's chic footsteps, be sure to take a page from her styling playbook and pair these jeans with a fitted white oxford shirt (tucked in, naturally), a studded belt, and platform heels. It's one of the editor's favorite outfit formulas and it's sure to work for you too!
Susan Cernek / Glamour.com, Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor
MiH Marrakesh Jeans ($189) in Reef
Full disclosure: Glamour's Susan Cernek is one of our favorite people in publishing. Period. She's a rare talent who has succeeded in multiple departments-fashion, features, and now digital-plus she has impeccable taste too. On that note, let's discuss her denim obsessions du jour! While Cernek's currently considering both the J Brand Bardot Jean ($187) and the Proenza Schouler High Waisted Skinny Jean ($275) for fall, right now MiH's Marrakesh Jeans seem to be at the forefront of her mind. It's a smart choice; in addition to being a celeb-favorite, this specific shape and vintage-influenced wash will work well into spring. In fact, the S/S 11 runways inspired Cernek's pick, specifically the way Derek Lam styled a similarly high-rise, wide-leg pair of jeans with a silky blouse (tucked in, of course) and a pencil-thin belt. "I almost made a run for Barneys right then and there," she says. "It's ladylike crossed with Carly Simon-just my cup of tea." Cernek is definitely a fashion savant, so be sure to heed her words of wisdom and snag a pair as soon as possible!
Jade Frampton / ELLE, Market Editor
J Brand Bardot High Waisted Skinny Jeans ($187)
As the Market Editor of ELLE, Jade Frampton has oodles and oodles of denim options at her fingertips. Surely she could wear a different pair every day for the rest of year if she wanted, but right now she only has eyes for a single style: the high-waisted skinny jean. But not just any slim and navel-grazing pair will do! No, Frampton's specifically focused on J Brand's Bardot Jean with its at-the-ankle hemline and uniformly dark wash. So why this silhouette and rinse over all others? In a word: versatility. In addition to working with both utilitarian flats and statement heels, the simplicity of this style is the perfect foil for many of fall's must-try trends. "I am looking forward to wearing these high-waisted skinnies with all of fall's cozy cropped sweaters," Frampton says. Her suggestion is accessible, understated, and interesting-in other words, sartorial perfection!

The crossover from editor to designer is one that rarely happens in the fashion industry, which is understandable. After all, just because someone can write about beautiful designs or style them doesn't necessarily mean they can actually create them. But that said, this month's Line We Love spotlights one of the few success stories: Melissa Coker, the designer and founder of Wren. After years spent working in the editorial and fashion departments of Vogue and W respectively, Coker realized her true passion lied in creating clothing with an easy elegance, which is exactly why she decided to start Wren.Since its launch in 2007, the Los Angeles-based brand has shown off an enticing, carefree aesthetic--think: classic closet staples rendered in breezy silhouettes and interesting, of-the-moment prints--that attracts a legion of fans, including the likes of Keira Knightley, Alexa Chung, and Clemence Poesy. The designer's latest collection, brilliantly showcased in the must-see fashion short "What's Up?" directed by Gia Coppola, is chock-full of youthfully sophisticated dresses, tops, trousers, and knits, all perfectly suited for spring. From the cutest crop top to the perfect LWD, we've selected some of the collection's most noteworthy pieces, so scroll down for details on each of today's picks and don't forget to check out our exclusive Q&A with the designer below!
Open Weave Color Block Crew ($220) in Black/White
In addition to being insanely soft, this cozy open-knit sweater is also quite functional for spring and summer! The neutral, color-block design lends itself to a myriad of styling choices, so wear it now with bright, solid-colored trousers, then swap in a pair of denim cutoffs and neon sandals when temps warm up.
Eyelet Drop Waist Shirt Dress ($286) in White
Every woman should have a little white dress in her wardrobe come summer, and we think this sweet eyelet version is the ideal pick! We love everything about this frock, including its prim collar, adorable pockets, and of-the-moment drop-waist silhouette. Paired with a mix of pearl necklaces and nude wedges, it's the perfect dress for a garden soiree or lunching with the girls.
Soft Printed Pants ($230) in Ikat
While there are loads of printed pants to choose from this season, Wren's take on the trend is a clear winner in our book. To start, the lightweight, airy fabric makes them wholly desirable, especially if your summer plans involve tropical locales or music festivals; plus, the navy ikat pattern instantly adds interest to all your warm-weather basics. So whether you team them with a casual tank and sandals for the weekend or a silky button-up and sleek pumps for the office, consider these pants a refreshing alternative to your skinny jeans.
Tie Front Top ($176) in Coral
The unofficial kickoff for BBQ season is literally two weeks away (we mean Memorial Day, of course!), so if you haven't already begun prepping your closet with all the important clothing essentials, perhaps you should start now with this tie-front top. Featuring a bold coral color, button-down front, and cropped cut, this easygoing top looks cute worn with everything from an accordion pleat skirt to white jeans, making it a piece you'll want to wear again and again!
Q&A with Melissa Coker
What inspired the start of your design career?
I have a background in magazines, and through a twist of fate, ended up designing. There were a few things that I wanted and couldn't find in stores, so I had some friends set me up with pattern makers and I started making things for myself. I made ten pieces and realized that I had a small collection. I showed it to some stores and they bought everything. Wren was born!
What was the inspiration behind this season's collection?
For this collection, I was heavily inspired by the work of Ed Ruscha, particularly his 1971 photo book, A Few Palm Trees. I wanted to recreate the mood of the images and draw on this idea of a classic California summer. I also looked to one of my favorite muses, Gia Coppola. Her personal style is so effortless and cool-I wanted to evoke that feeling with these pieces.
How would you style specific pieces from this collection? Do you have a favorite piece in the collection?
Right now, I'm loving head-to-toe matching patterns and tonal looks. I would pair the ikat pieces together, and style the sequin pieces with more dressed-down basics like the tencel pieces. I love the eyelet pieces-there's something very romantic, but still very cool about them.
What kind of girl do you envision wearing your clothing?
The Wren girl is bookish, but still very cool; feminine, but also not afraid to be a little bit of a tomboy too.
How does your design process for a collection start?
For my collections, the prints and textiles really drive the designs. I like to start with a strong print-this season was the ikat-and that leads me to the next print or texture. It's a really organic process.--Jessica Baker

Is that true color? I like the graphics, but it looks cold and clinical.

Congrats John. I look forward to buying this book. Your work has helped me navigate a journey from fear-based Calvinism to joyful free-thinking atheism. I have benefitted from what you do.
- February 17, 2010 at 10:23 AM
- John W. Loftus said...
Thanks. Yes, I'm pretty excited about it. It's been a long time coming. I have the colorized version and decided not to publish it for various reasons.

I like the gray cover. But then again, I like cold and cynical too.

- Winston Smith said...
John, WIBA an atheist did not "destroy Christianity", and this book won't either.
Especially since some of the contributors, such as Long, are not even experts in the field they are dommenting on.
- February 17, 2010 at 12:04 PM
- Chuck O'Connor said...
What does "dommenting" mean?
Good job again John.
Does Winston know that his arrogant and defensive posture just reinforces the atheist position you've helped some of us achieve when your arguments "destroyed" our faith?
- February 17, 2010 at 2:44 PM
- Dave said...
"Forget Dawkins. If you are looking for a truly substantial, well-informed criticism of the Christian religion, this is your book."
High praise indeed from Dale C Allison, Jr. Certainly compels me to read it.
Well done!

John, are you going to offer it on Amazon's Kindle... those of us that use it download it wirelessly and then we can easily carry it where we go, reading it when a few minutes opens up during the day

George, yes, eventually.

It seems to drive me insane when I ask fundamentalist Christians why there is such evil commanded by their God in the Bible and a blank stare comes over their face and the answer with, "I don't know but God is always Good" or "His ways are above ours and you must have faith."
Can't they see the wickedness of such evil all commanded in the name of God?
- February 17, 2010 at 8:56 PM
- Harold said...
Chuck O'Conner,
Winston is correct about Long. He is not an in the field he is commenting on. His view is pretty meaningless. Now of course reading a book like "The Christian Delusion" one must watch out for biases of the authors. Even when reading a passage written by an expert one must be cautious about the author's bias. As an old saying goes don't believe everything you read.
- February 17, 2010 at 9:03 PM
- Dane Eidson said...
Are you a Christian? How do you explain the verses addressed in the section called the "Will of God."?
- February 17, 2010 at 10:21 PM
- Bud said...
"Winston is correct about Long. He is not an in the field he is commenting on. His view is pretty meaningless."
Perhaps a better approach would be to evaluate the strength of his arguments rather than dismissing them a priori based on an ad hominem. You said it yourself: one must watch out for biases.
- February 18, 2010 at 2:29 AM
- Harold said...
Dane Eidson,
Give me a link. Where do I find these verses on the will of God section that you are talking about?
- February 22, 2010 at 12:36 AM
- Harold said...
Saying that one has biases is not an attack. When I said that his view was meaningless I was not talking about him. I was talking about reading why should I read someone's opinion when that person really has no more knowledge about what he is talking about than I do. So I may be guilty of rushing to a wrong conclusion but I am not guilty of ad hominem. We all are bias and I have little time for books about Christian delusion when I do not believe that Christians are any more delusional than atheist.

POTSDAM Town and village officials agree on most of the necessary steps before the town can take full control of the recreation program, but one sticking point is the cost of benefits for current and retired employees.
The Town Council and village Board of Trustees met in a joint session Monday night to discuss the issue. No agreement was reached on health benefits for the two retired and three full-time recreation employees, especially Recreation Director Timothy W. Carey.
Until the town takes over, costs for the recreation program are split evenly between both municipalities. However, full-time workers are technically employed by the village, which offers a larger health benefits package than the town.
If the town takes over, all employees will be laid off and will have the opportunity to be rehired under a town contract.
This is a deal-breaker unless we can agree on this, town Supervisor Marie C. Regan said.
Most village board members agreed the village could continue to pay the benefits for retired employees.
I think we can make this exchange in the interest of cooperation, village Mayor Steven W. Yurgartis said.
Village Trustee Ruth F. Garner disagreed with the proposal.
This sounds like government, to me, taking a simple problem and making it as complicated as it can be, she said. Why should the village pay it? Why cant it just be clear, and have everyone pay their fair share?
Mr. Careys employment is a more complicated case. He has been a village employee for 25 years, and the boards argued about which municipality would be responsible for his benefits should he choose to retire.
The village board went into executive session to discuss his employment specifically. Two Town Council members were invited into the executive session. Mr. Carey was at the meeting, but was not invited to the executive session. He declined to comment.
Other points were less controversial. Village trustees agreed to sign over all recreation properties, facilities and equipment to the town. They also agreed to contribute 50 percent of the costs to procure grants for the program for the next five years, instead of the 10 years initially requested.
None of the agreements reached Monday is binding. Both municipalities must decide how to proceed and draft a formal resolution outlining the plan.
If at least 140 residents of the proposed recreation district sign a petition opposing it, the resolution will have to be put to a public vote. The district includes the entire town of Potsdam except the village of Norwood.
Officials hope to finish the process before November, but if not, a special election may have to be held later.

We're very pleased to provide you with this year's Annual Water Quality Report. We want to keep you informed about the excellent water and services we have delivered to you over the past year. Our goal is and always has been, to provide to you a safe and dependable supply of drinking water.
The Price City water system has multiple sources of drinking water. Our Colton Springs are located 25 miles northwest of central Price. The spring water is a free-flowing underground source of water that is piped to the Price City water treatment plant where it is chlorinated. We have a seasonal water treatment plant which runs from April to October, located 12 miles north of Price in Price Canyon. The treatment plant has a complete water treatment process for the Price River water from Scofield Reservoir. Also, Price City has a water trade agreement with Price River Water Improvement District (PRWID). We are able to give them water in the winter and they can give us water in the summer. They have a water treatment plant in Price Canyon that has a full water treatment process for the Price River water. Another source of drinking water is the two Rocky Mountain Power wells located approximately 1 mile from the Colton Springs. This water is from the same aquifer as the springs, but is used on a limited or emergency use only.
Price City has a Drinking Water Source Protection Plan for the Colton Springs and a Surface Water Source Protection Plan for the Price River and Scofield Reservoir. These plans contain information about source protection zones, potential contamination sources, and management strategies to protect our drinking water. Our sources have a medium susceptibility to potential contamination, such as private septic tanks, lake recreation, highways, railroad and etc. The public can obtain access to the reports through Price City at the Public Works Complex. Please contact us at 637-5010, if you would like to review our source protection plans.
There are many connections to our water distribution system. When connections are properly installed and maintained, the concerns are very minimal. However, unapproved and improper piping changes or connections can adversely affect not only the availability, but also the quality of the water. A cross connection may let polluted water or even chemicals mingle into the water supply system when not properly protected. This not only compromises the water quality but can also affect your health. So, what can you do? Do not make or allow improper connections at your homes. Even that unprotected garden hose lying in the puddle next to the driveway is a cross connection. The unprotected lawn sprinkler system after you have fertilized or sprayed is also a cross connection. When the cross connection is allowed to exist at your home, it will affect you and your family first. If you'd like to learn more about helping to protect the quality of our water, call us for further information about ways you can help.
I'm pleased to report that our drinking water meets federal and state requirements.
If you have any questions about this report or concerning your water utility, please contact:
Price Municipal Corporation / Public Utilities Department
Public Works Complex 432 West 600 South Price, Utah
Contact Personnel:

We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility. If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly council meetings. They are held at 5:30pm on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at Price City Hall / Council Chambers, 185 East Main Street, Price, Utah. For information contact: Laurie Tryon (435)637-3183.
Mayor: Joe Piccolo,
Council members:
Richard Tatton, Jeanne McEvoy, Kathy Hanna-Smith, Jeff Nielson and Rick Davis
Price Municipal Corporation routinely monitors for constituents in our drinking water in accordance with the Federal and Utah State laws. The following table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31st, 2008. All drinking water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts of some constituents. It's important to remember that the presence of these constituents does not necessarily pose a health risk.
To help you better understand the terms, we have provided the following information.
Non-Detects (ND) - laboratory analysis indicates that the constituent is not present.
ND/Low - High - For water systems that have multiple sources of water, the Utah Division of Drinking Water has given water systems the option of listing the test results of the constituents in one table, instead of multiple tables. To accomplish this, the lowest and highest values detected in the multiple sources are recorded in the same space in the report table. Examples: Price City testing results include Colton Springs and Price River water.
Parts per million (ppm) - In testing for the level of a contaminant in drinking water, the laboratory is testing for 1 part contaminant per 1 million parts of water.
Parts per billion (ppb) - In testing for the level of a contaminant in drinking water, the laboratory is testing for 1 part contaminant per 1 billion parts of water.
Parts per trillion (ppt) - In testing for the level of a contaminant in drinking water, the laboratory is testing for 1 part contaminant per 1 trillion parts of water.
Picocuries per liter (pCi/L) - picocuries per liter is a measure of the radioactivity in water.
Million Fibers per Liter (MFL) - million fibers per liter is a measure of the presence of asbestos fibers that are longer than 10 micrometers.
Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) - nephelometric turbidity unit is a measure of the clarity of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the average person.
Action Level (AL) - the concentration of a contaminant, which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements, which a water system must follow.
Treatment Technique (TT) - A treatment technique is a required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available Treatment technology.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) - The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) - The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) - The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
Sample Date - The data presented in the report are from the most recent testing required by state and federal regulations, not all sample dates are from 2008.
Multiple Sample Dates - When different sources of drinking water need the same testing requirements; multiple test dates will be entered. Examples: Price City testing dates include Price River water and Colton Springs water.
Waivers (W) - A variance or exemption from meeting an MCL, or current treatment technique, or current testing requirements under certain conditions regulated by state and federal regulations.
Water additive used to control microbes "We periodically monitor for Nitrate in the water supply to meet all regulatory requirements. In 2008 we failed to take the required sample. Testing for Nitrate is used to ensure that the public is provided with safe drinking water. This violation does not necessarily pose a health risk. We have reviewed why we failed to take the required sample and will take steps to ensure that it will not happen again." (We took both of our Nitrate samples on March of 2009 and the results were ND and .3 ppm. This is well beyond the federal and state requirements)
This report is designed to inform the public about the quality of water that Price City delivers every day. With rules and regulations becoming more complicated, it can be hard to understand the results and at what level contaminants are harmful. The Price City utilities department is aware of the need to provide the customer with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. A sampling program monitors this high level of water quality continuously. Our primary objective is to provide customer satisfaction and service to the citizens of Price.
We constantly monitor the water supply for various constituents. We have not detected cryptosporidium in the drinking water but have detected cryptosporidium in the Price River. We detected this constituent in every untreated river sample tested. We believe it is important for you to know that cryptosporidium may cause serious illness in immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
All sources of drinking water are subject to potential contamination by constituents that are naturally occurring or are man made. Those constituents can be microbes, organic or inorganic chemicals, or radioactive materials. All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.
MCL's are set at very stringent levels. To understand the possible health effects described for many regulated constituents, a person would have to drink 2 liters of water every day at the MCL level for a lifetime to have a one-in-a-million chance of having the described health effect.
Thank You for allowing us to continue providing your family with clean, quality water this year. In our continuing efforts to maintain a safe and dependable water supply it may be necessary to make improvements that will benefit all of our customers. These improvements are sometimes reflected as rate structure adjustments. Thank you for understanding.

PAWTUCKET --- If Mount St. Charles learned anything about Tolman over the past six days, it's that the Tigers have plenty of pitching to go around.
Less than a week after Carlos Sanabria blanked Mount on four hits, the Tigers topped the Mounties with another four-hitter on Monday afternoon – this time coming from starter Richie Marshall and reliever Joey Fernandes – and parlayed that with a 14-hit assault to beat their Division II-North opponent, 8-3, at Slater Park.
Number seven batter and shortstop Corey Hughes went 3-for-3 to lead the offense for the surging Tigers, who have now won nine in a row (seven in the league) to improve to 11-1 overall and 9-1 in division action and remain tied for first place with Scituate (also 9-1).
And while the Tigers have been winning, their pitching staff has been impressive. In the Tigers' last seven league wins, Tolman has allowed just seven runs (four of them earned) and 27 hits.
In Monday's win, Marshall won his third straight start by working the first five innings, striking out four, walking two batters, and allowing two hits, both of them one-out triples to Tate Laquerre and Nolan Hawyard that hit a pole on the outfield fence and ricocheted away from the Tigers' outfielders.
Armed with a 6-1 lead, Marshall exited the game in the sixth after he hit the first batter he faced, Riley Young, with a pitch in the back and walked the next batter, Kevin Valentine. But Fernandes came in and ended the inning with a pair of grounders, the first one wiping out Valentine at second and the second resulting in a nicely-turned 4-6-3 double play.
"This was a good game for Richie," noted Tolman head coach Theo Murray. "I told him I needed five innings out of him today and that's what he gave me. And Joey's been a good stopper for us. He's come in into tight spots and gotten those ground balls for us.
"I had Carlos available for the seventh if we needed him. He got loose between the sixth and seventh, but I wanted to keep him fresh for our game Wednesday against Ponaganset and we were able to do that."
Offensively, Hughes led a hit parade that also saw No. 9 batter Steve Otis go 2-for-3 with a two-run single in the second that made it a 4-0 game; Nick Kempf single, double, score a pair of runs, and drive in two, and Jason Maynard and Sanabria collect multiple hits.
"Our bats have been great," offered Murray, whose team is averaging a shade under nine runs per game in their 10 league contests. "We've been hitting the ball well this year."
Maynard led off the bottom of the first with a double, and after he went to third on a wild pitch by Valentine (Mount's starter), he dashed home on an infield hit by Kempf – one of five hits by the Tigers that didn't reach the outfield grass.
Nate Gagnon later knocked in Kempf with a sacrifice fly to right field, and in the second, Otis came through with his big hit, a sharp single that went by the dive of third baseman Michael Dixon and down the left-field line and plated Hughes and Anthony DiBiasio.
Back-to-back, run-scoring doubles into the gap in left-center by Fernandes and Hughes in the third made it a 6-0 game, and after the Mounties scored an unearned run in the fourth, Tolman scored its final two runs in the sixth on a run-scoring double to right by Kempf and an infield error.
Down, but not out, the visitors made things interesting in the final inning by scoring two runs with the aid of a double to right by Lataille, a run-scoring single by Young, and three walks. They had the bases full and the tying run on deck, but Fernandes ended the drama and the game with a groundout.
"This was a good win," said Murray. "Mount's a good team, and it's tough to beat a team in our division twice in a year. We just had them at their place last week."
The Mounties, one of the youngest teams in the entire league with primarily sophomores and juniors, fell back to .500 in league play (5-5) and overall (6-6).
"I like our team," added Mount head coach Tom Seaver, whose team will visit Smithfield in its next game on Wednesday afternoon. "It's a young team, but they keep fighting, and that's all we can ask for."
The Tigers' next two games (both west on Route 6) promise to be challenging ones. Not only will they get a tough test from the Chieftains, who are 6-3, but next Monday, they will clash with Scituate at the Spartans' Manning Field. Scituate handed Tolman its lone loss of the season, 10-1, back on April 18 at Slater Park.

So RIM has been on a real hot streak recently. They have been releasing a lot of phones recently, with the Bold, Storm and Curve 8900 no one can say they haven't been able to get their fix and now it looks like they are releasing another Blackberry phone.
This one is set to be a "low-end" phone. The new phone, Blackberry Curve 8520, looks to be released in the next few months as it is in testing phase now. The new Curve will be an upgrade to the old 8300 line but won't be as full featured as the higher end Curve 8900.
There was a full review done over at Crackberry with a testing unit. They down a full review and include that the specs for the phone are:
- Edge device
- 320 by 240 display
- 256 megabytes of internal memory (same as 8900)
- 1150mAh battery
- 2 megapixel camera, no flash
Alright so there aren't many specs known at this point, but the phone is still in testing so more feature might become available later one. Some interesting things mentioned in the article though about the Curve 8520 are
- No flash for the camera
- No charging pins
- No standard trackball
The above features all seem like they will be missing from the Blackberry Curve 8520. Most notably the trackball has been replaced by an optical trackball. Basically they got rid of the ball and made it a sensor. According to the article the implementation of it on the Curve 8520 seems to be pretty smooth.
Also another new feature is dedicated media buttons to play and pause your music on the phone.
The phone's casing is also "rubberized" which should make it a little more resistant to being dropped.
So the big question now are when will it be released? The fact that it is now being tested does show that it shouldn't be too much longer. Hopefully sooner then later we will be able to see this lower end Blackberry cell phone hit the market to give people another option.

|The odor of burnt trees and bushes permeate the air where Sulphur Canyon Creek mixes water with the Price River about a mile above the PRWID plant. The creek is only one of the many streams that feed water into the river from the area where the wildfire took its toll on vegetation in the canyon last June. The brownish black rivulets of water are the primary cause of the odor in the drinking water supplied by the district to homes and businesses in the county.
It was predicted at the start of the summer that wildfires raging across Utah would do more than cost millions of dollars to fight and dirty the air with smoke.
The predictions are coming to pass. Note the mud slides in Santaquin last week and the water filled with mud running quickly through northeastern Springville streets from denuded mountains caused by a manmade fire in June.
The ramifications of a local wildfire is evidenced by the water coming out of taps in most of Carbon County.
In June, a huge fire that attracted considerable attention started burning on a Sunday afternoon in Price Canyon and it roared over the top of the cliffs into the Emma Park area. In its transit, the blaze burned within a half mile of the Price River Water Improvement District plant. The fire ran right up Sulpher Canyon, a major drainage into the Price River.
After a week and 3,000 acres, fire fighting efforts by local entities and the United States Bureau of Land Management extinguished the blaze.
But the wildfire's effects will last a lot longer and, two weeks ago, the first of the impacts started to appear in the bathtubs and sinks in the Carbon County area.
"When that first storm hit, the water just rushed into Sulpher Canyon and brought a lot of the burnt material with it," indicated PRWID manager Phil Palmer during the regular meeting of the district's board Tuesday. "That washed into the Price River and headed down into our plant. We shut the flow into the plant off as soon as we realized it, but some of it got into our settling ponds."
According to Palmer, the water district installed a half-million dollar odor control unit in the treatment plant a few years ago. But the unit is primarily for removing odors related to algae.
"This is a different problem and I have found no one else in the state that is having or has had it," pointed out Palmer, explaining he had called water districts along the Wasatch Front to see if he could find someone who had dealt with a similar situation.
Part of the problem with what is happening to PRWID's plant has to do with its proximity to the actual fire site and the direct drainage.
In many cases when fires take place, the blazes affect watersheds and the water. But the fires and drainage in the area are usually miles away from the treatment facility. In the local case, however, the fire occurred close to the plant and directly in a major drainage, giving the water no distance to cleanse itself.
"We have had a lot of complaints over the last couple of weeks from customers who say their water smells," said Palmer. "Those complaints are justified, and we are trying to solve the problem. We have shut the water off to the plant when we could to keep out the runoff pollutants, but at some point we still need to make water so we do have to bring some in. As the less odorous water has been coming in we have been flushing lines throughout the system to get rid of some of the water that has the burnt odor. We will keep working on the problem."
Palmer emphasized that the water supply is completely safe for all uses, including drinking.
Acting on an unrelated matter at the public meeting, the PRWID board members voted to accept the final documents on the completion of the nitrification project at the utility's sewage treatment plant in Wellington.
"With the new system we can take almost 100 percent of the nitrogen out of the effluent," said Palmer. "It can be removed to the point that we can't even detect it."
The money secured to fund the project, which came from grants, was not all spent, however. Approximately $200,000 of the funding still remains in the water district's budget.
The water improvement district can use the remaining money to complete any kinds of improvement PRWID wants at the plant as long as the revenues are used within the confines of the property at the site.
In addition, the PRWID board voted to approve three items regarding utility moves that will need to be made in conjunction with the construction of the Helper overpass on U.S. Highway 6.
First, the district's board members approved the advertisement for bid submission for the actual movement of utility lines in the area.
Second, the PRWID officials approved an engineering contract for Creamer and Noble on the same project.
"The numbers for this project will all change when they get into the actual work, but that is expected," explained Palmer.
The board was reminded that the costs involved for all aspects of the project will be refunded to the district by the Utah Department of Transportation.
Finally they set a special meeting on Oct. 1 at 5:30 p.m. to open the bids they had approved the advertisement for.
In the managers report, Palmer reported that Utah Power and Light is just about done bringing three phase power to the new airport pump station and that those pumps should be on line within a couple of weeks.
He also reported that in a meeting with the state division of drinking water it appeared that both East Wellington and Carbonville water companies will be able to secure loans for lower than 2.1 percent on money they need to update their water systems. Those loans will be on the agenda at the divisions meeting in October.
He also reported that PRWID is sixth on the list for funding at the state level for money to work on sewer improvement. He told the board that the district may be able to get no interest money for the upcoming projects which over the 20 year payback period could make a substantial difference in the money paid out.
The board also had some comments and questions.
Guido Rachiele advised the board he was concerned about the possibility of running water lines relocated by the highway project in Helper over Bryner and Canyon Street, primarily because of the problems the construction could run into with rock as well as private residences in the area.
Palmer pointed out that the Utah Department of Transportation has taken the project back to the state agency's engineers to have another look at the matter because of the concerns in question.
One of the board members also brought up the fact that a rumor in town had surfaced blaming drinking water for illnesses that were sending children in the community to the hospital.
But Jeff Richins, assistant district manager for PRWID, said he had also heard these rumors, checked with local doctors and found that while there are kids in the hospital, none of them are there because of the water.
Board chair, Steve Denison, brought up some items he had learned about effluent conservation.
Denison asked the board to be thinking about ways the district might be able to use the effluent the treatment plant puts out rather than turning it back out into the Price River.
Richins pointed out that some of the water is presently being used to water the treatment plants property and for other uses.
According to regulations, the effluent a plant produces belongs to that entity until it is discharged into a stream.
"I would just like the boards thoughts on this," Denison concluded.

NASA has rejected the state's request to take over property at the north end of Kennedy Space Center for development of a commercial launch complex - a potential setback in Florida's effort to keep the Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, from moving some launches to another state.
The space agency may be open to alternatives that don't involve transferring ownership of land NASA says it still needs to support future missions, Local 6 news partner Florida Today reports.
Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll, the head of Space Florida's board, last September wrote the administrators of NASA and the U.S. Department of Transportation to request roughly 150 acres to establish a launch complex that would operate independently from NASA and the Air Force's Eastern Range.
The complex would be located near the Brevard-Volusia county line in the former citrus community of Shiloh, just inside the borders of KSC and the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.
Though more than one company could use the complex, it represents the state's attempt to keep the Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, or SpaceX, from committing to Texas, Georgia or other states where it is exploring the feasibility of a new pad for launches of commercial payloads.
Anticipating a significant increase in its flight rate, SpaceX wants a pad that offers easier access, more control over launch schedules and lower operating costs than might be possible inside secure government facilities such as KSC or Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
If the Shiloh site is federally owned, it would remain part of the Eastern Range's jurisdiction.
The state had also asked NASA to transfer ownership of Kennedy's shuttle runway, which could become a hub for privately operated space planes.

The Reebok K skate series was designed to maximize power transmission, while providing a customized fit that enhances the skaters stride. The Dynamic Support System, or DSS, is evident throughout the series and refers to the ideal skate construction which optimizes flexibility and stiffness. Reebok uses its proprietary last, designed and engineered to provide stride-enhancing fit accuracy.
The 20K has a generous fit profile, but is armed with the Pump® technology which allows air to circulate around the ankles for great heel lock and a customized fit. The 20K is also equipped with the Skate Lock feature which allows for variability within two separate lacing zones - lower and upper.
Reebok uses its Pro Armour V construction in the quarter. This is a fused multi-layered package reinforced with metal mesh for great durability, long term performance and great stiffness. The other elements of the quarter are part of the Dynamic Support System. The flexion zone is an embedded composite zone, the fibers of which are oriented at 45° which provides excellent support, but at the same time helps to control forward flex. The spinal zone is also an embedded composite zone, however, these fibers are oriented at 90° and 0° which is a stronger orientation for locking the heel in place.
Heel lock is further enhanced through the use of internal memory foams and the Pump®. The fact that these are heat moldable just adds to the already great amount of customization that this skate offers, which of course is going to further reduce break in time. The tongue is made of pro felt with a lightweight EPE foam core and an external molded lace bite protector, giving you a good amount of forward flex. Meanwhile, on the opposite end of the skating stride, the 20K tendon guard has rubber inserts that allow it to flex which enhances your mobility.
The 20K has the ventilated full lightweight carbon composite outsole which helps reduce weight in a skate and provides excellent rigidity under the boot thus reducing torque while you skate. If you're looking for a skate with great customized fit features and technology that helps to maximize power transmission, look no further than the 20K from Reebok.
Skate Weights are determined using a size 8.0 regular width senior skate, a size 3.0 regular width junior skate, or a 11.0 regular width youth skate.

CallCopy Lets Managers See What Customers Are Saying
CallCopy: Discover version 5.1 features a new widget-based dashboard that provides customized views of customer data on a single page, so that agents can focus on the most relevant information to their job function during any given customer interaction. Widgets can be configured to display quality assurance, key performance indicator metrics, and more.
Apr 1, 2013 5:00 AM PT
CallCopy recently unveiled cc: Discover 5.1, an upgrade to its flagship workforce optimization suite. Many of the changes incorporated in this version were made at the behest of customers who provided feedback at the company's first annual User Conference last fall, Patrick Hall, CMO of CallCopy, told CRM Buyer.
Taken as a whole, the upgraded application "provides a simple solution to solving complicated problems," Hall said, referring to the issues companies face when trying to monitor and manage complex agent workflow processes.
More fundamentally, "what we have developed is meant to help our customers get a better understanding of the unstructured data" that results from the calls or interactions, he added.
Enhanced Interaction Playback
One new feature in version 5.1 is an enhanced interaction playback interface that renders a call in a visual format.
The graph is marked by such data points as crosstalk -- which suggests that the rep and customer are talking at the same time and possibly the customer is angry -- or silence. The feature also lets users drill down into the data as needed.
"It makes the product easier to use when a manager is able to visualize what is going on in an interaction in a meaningful way, rather than just listening to an audio stream of the conversation," Hall said.
It also is a time saver, he continued. "As a manager, you don't have time to listen to every call from start to end -- it just isn't practical."
The feature can also identify what is going on at the workstation at the time of the interaction, Hall continued. "You can see what apps or processes are open during the time of the call."
More Customization
The upgrade version also comes with more customization capabilities.
Now, for example, management can customize time-off request parameters; set a non-standard business week; customize overtime and hours-worked thresholds; and perform bulk updates to schedules, events and calendars.
Other improvements include the beefed up automatic failover recovery -- a feature that takes over the recordings if there is a hardware failure -- and improved processes for handling post-call recording.
"We continue to record the workstation after a call is over, so we can see how the agent is updating notes and otherwise following up on the call," Hall said.
Version 5.1 also expanded its Cisco integration. CallCopy interoperates with Cisco's technology, Hall said, "and they are continually updating their products. So that means we follow up with the relevant integrations."

Hoka One One trail running shoes are now available at Rock/Creek
"Rock/Creek Race Team member Randy Whorton was skeptical... he immediately took them out for a 20-mile run, followed by a hard 6-miler on the most technical trails in the Chattanooga area. Thrilled with the results to that point, he decided to wear them while running the Black Mountain 50k. Here's what he wrote after the race..."

Wanted to try some out, saw them on clearance and my size happened to be the last one available. Great for long hilly trails.

- Downhills

I'm a light runner (150lb), yet since I increased my weekly mileage over 50mi I was feeling pain in my (high) arch, especially on the heel. Going downhill was not fun, having to brake to reduce impact. I gave these Mafate 2 a try, and they work. I'm in fact using them also for my mid-week run on asphalt. On technical downhills I had to be careful not to twist my ankle, yet it's not too bad given how high the cushioing is. I also like the flat profile, meaning I can run on my toes better.
