BUFFALO, N.Y. - A bustling indoor market on Saturday mornings is just the beginning for the historic Horsefeathers Building on Connecticut Street on the city's West Side.
Developer Karl Frizlen is finishing up a three-year, $3.5 million renovation project.
The market is only temporary. By May, 24 one and two-bedroom loft apartments will be ready to rent, and several permanent food vendors will set up shop on the first floor of the building.
"We are trying to bring people into this neighborhood and into this building that has been basically shuttered for the past three years," said Frizlen.
The Pasta Peddler is one of the local businesses who will rent space in the building.
"We've heard a lot about the West Side coming back, and we know a couple of owners right here on Connecticut Street that are doing fairly well. [We're] hoping it will be good for us too," said owner Mike Sedia.
The mini storefronts with large glass windows will be a space where vendors can show how they make their product and then sell it.
The lofts will rent for between $700 and $1,000 per month. Frizlen says there is already a waiting list forming.
The Horsefeathers indoor winter market runs every Saturday from 8 a.m. until noon. The building is located at 346 Connecticut Street.

Finally, the wait is over for John W. Pierce Sr.
The 55-year-old Belleville resident received a new heart Saturday in a successful transplant operation at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, Pa.
Its complete joy and relief that it wasnt going to be another dry run, his wife, Deanna, said from the hospital Thursday.
The surgery took seven hours, including preparation time.
About six times throughout the past three years, Mr. Pierce thought he was going to get a new heart, but for various reasons at Strong Memorial Hospital, Rochester, and the Pittsburgh hospital, it didnt work out. With the past behind him, Mrs. Pierce said, her husband is looking forward to getting through the recovery process so he can go home.
Since Saturday, he has been in the intensive care unit, where he will stay for some time before being transferred to the ninth floor to continue recovery. Mrs. Pierce said he will remain on the ninth floor for about three weeks.
It takes three months or four to turn the corner, she said. Hell have to go to cardiac rehabilitation. Were not out of the woods yet.
She said her husbands life is forever changed; he wont be able to garden when he comes home because he cant put his hands in dirt, and he has been advised never to go to a buffet, for fear of contamination. He also will be put on steroids and anti-rejection medication.
Hes got a lot of hard work to go through, Mrs. Pierce said. In time, hell be fishing again.
Little changes dont matter, Mrs. Pierce said, because her husband is alive and well and has a new lease on life.
The heart transplant is the second major surgery Mr. Pierce has undergone this year. When he arrived in Pittsburgh in January, he received a left ventricular assist device, or LVAD, which is a mechanical pump thats used to support heart function and blood flow in people who have weakened hearts, according to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.
Mr. Pierce was diagnosed in 2002 with cardiomyopathy, in which the heart does not pump blood properly.
Mrs. Pierce said one of the most amazing feelings will be when she can dance with her husband without equipment attached to him.
Hes not machine-free yet, because hes in ICU, but you can see hell walk out of here with no attachment, she said.
Now, hes stable and looking forward to spending more time with his two granddaughters, daughter-in-law and son Cory, who received help from the Red Cross to be flown in from England, where he is stationed. The Pierces other son, Jay, drove to the hospital from his home in Syracuse.
Mrs. Pierce said her mother-in-law, Phyllis, has been by Mr. Pierces side since he became severely ill in Rochester and followed them to Pittsburgh. Support from the greater Belleville community has been amazing, Mrs. Pierce said.
Family friend Sherry L. Ruoff organized a benefit in February to help the family with travel, meal and lodging expenses. She has kept up to date with phone calls and social media posts from Mrs. Pierce.
Its an incredible feeling, Ms. Ruoff said of the transplant. Theyve been through so much and waited for so long.
Mrs. Pierce said she hopes that sharing her husbands story will inspire others waiting for a donated organ not to give up hope. Educate yourself and listen constantly to what doctors and nurses are saying, she said.

Black marker was used to write "4 more years," "racist pig" and numerous profanities on the white chair.
"I opened the curtain and saw it out there at about 9 o'clock," Judy David said. "If the police can pull finger prints off of it, good."
Ken David said he intends to file a complaint with the Ottawa County Sheriff's Department.
"It's uncalled for," he said Wednesday afternoon.
The chair was at the end of the Davids' driveway, across the street from Peach Plains Elementary School on Comstock Street.
"I am sorry we didn't get out there quicker to take it down," Ken said. "I hope too many kids didn't see it."
Ken said the chair was likely a response to the political display featured on his property, which was the subject of numerous media reports in late September.
"Probably because they didn't like the chairs suspended in our trees," he said.
The Davids' chair and sign display was erected in September as a play on Clint Eastwood's Republican National Convention speech in August, during which the actor berated an empty chair that represented Obama.
In response to the Davids' display, the Lakeshore Ethnic Diversity Alliance hosted a meeting in Grand Haven on Oct. 4, saying the hanging chairs represented racist threats against the African-American president and should be removed.
According to Judy David, the couple was left in the dark about attending the meeting.
"Nobody from the Ethnic Diversity Alliance came over and asked us to come to their meeting," she said. "If they would've came over and asked us, we would have talked to them, but we've been shunned and it's totally despicable."
Ken said they aren't racist, as the candidate they were strongly in favor of during the Republican primary election race early this year was also African-American.
"Herman Cain was our candidate, and we contributed to his campaign two different times — so how could I be a racist?" he said. "He was our candidate until he got railroaded."
Judy said they even attended rallies in support of Cain.
"We drove around the state to see him at different places," she said.
Ken said his lawn chair message was about promoting freedom.
"What this is about is liberty and freedom," he said. "I believe it so actively that I displayed it actively to the 5,400 cars that went by in two hours during the two days I was down (at Washington Avenue and U.S. 31, in early October)."
The Lakeshore Ethnic Diversity Alliance didn't immediately respond to calls for comment.
The alliance issued a statement on Thursday afternoon. To read it, click here.

NORTH TONAWANDA, N.Y.- If water could talk, it would speak to Scott Farrell.
By land, a junior at RIT. By lane, a swimmer for team USA.
But go beneath the surface and you'll see, there's a lot more to it than him just swimming.
Those words were said to Scott's mom, Susanne Williams, when her son was 20 months old. Scott is the first deaf member of his family, as far as he can look back.
Through sports, Scott found the freestyle. Through swimming, Scott found freedom.
"Swimming is something I can escape from life. There's no stress. There's no anything," Scott explains.
And, there's no sound either. Because underwater, no one can hear.
If school records for the 200 and 800-yard relays are any indication, Scott has no competitive disadvantage. But, his drive to win runs especially deep.
"I never let my hearing loss defeat me. I think it motivated me more to show that I can do it."
Scott and his younger brother Ryan were raised by his mother and stepfather.
"It doesn't matter the losses that you have. Hearing loss, there's other losses of dreams. You have to have dreams and fight through everything, and somehow you're always successful if you do so."
In 2011, Scott took home a silver and two bronze medals at the Deaf World Championships.
But, this summer, Scott will compete on an even bigger stage.
Swimming for Team USA at the Deaflympics in Bulgaria.
"I'm very happy and proud to be representing my country and my hometown as well."
"This is what he's been trying for for 9 years. To get to this point," Susanne reinforces.
Scott will also represent the deaf community and all the children he's helped mentor throughout his career.
"I feel very proud to be able to show them how and what I went through in life and expose to other deaf kids, the younger kids, to know that you may have lost your hearing, but you haven't lost other things and that you can do things. You can do it."
"You never want to trade places, but there's a reason for it. You make one change in one person's life, you know you made an impact in someone else's life," says Susanne, choking up."
Whether swimming for his country, his city or his community, Scott's impact goes beyond the the waters edge.

CINCINNATI (MarketWatch) — True to recent form, the major U.S. benchmarks are rattling the cage on multiyear highs.
Against this backdrop, the market technicals remain constructive. The charts below add color:
Before detailing the U.S. markets' wider view, the S&P 500's hourly chart highlights the past two weeks.
As illustrated, the S&P has sustained a slight break to five-year highs.
From current levels, initial support holds at its breakout point, spanning from 1,515 to 1,518.
Meanwhile, the Dow industrials' near-term backdrop remains constructive, though slightly weaker.
The blue-chip benchmark is traversing a relatively narrow two-week range, capped by resistance at the February peak of 14,039.
And the Nasdaq Composite's near-term view mirrors that of the S&P 500.
Initial support rests at its range bottom — Nasdaq 3,182 — while resistance holds at its 12-year high of 3,205.
Widening the view to six months adds perspective.
On this wider view, the Nasdaq has risen to major resistance — a test of 12-year highs — and stuck there.
The absence of selling pressure is technically constructive, improving the chances of a "real" breakout.
Moving to the Dow, its six-month backdrop is stronger.
The blue-chip benchmark has established a three-week bullish flag — working off its overbought condition — positioning it to build on the steep January breakout.
And the S&P 500's wider view rounds out the major benchmarks.
Consider that its uptrend tracks above the 20-day moving average, currently 1,506, and the S&P's path of least resistance points higher barring a violation of this area.
The bigger picture
On one level, the U.S. markets' February price action has been technically boring.
To make the point, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is traversing a relatively narrow two-week range.
Nonetheless, boring is bullish against the current technical backdrop.
To start, the Dow's tight February range suggests that selling pressure is limited, allowing the index to work off its overbought condition.
And separately, trading ranges are more often exited in the same direction that they were entered.
So in this case, the technical backdrop favors an eventual leg higher.
The retest of multiyear highs
Stepping back slightly, each major U.S. benchmark is challenging multiyear highs.
The specific levels fall out as follows:
- S&P resistance at its five-year high of 1,524.7.
- Dow resistance at its five-year high of 14,039.
- Nasdaq resistance at its 12-year high of 3,205.
As this is written, each benchmark has touched a nominal new high in Tuesday's early action before pulling in from resistance.
So the response to these areas is a technical "watch out," though all trends continue to point higher pending signs of a bearish pulse.
Tuesday's Watch List
The charts below detail names that are technically well positioned. These are radar screen names -- sectors or stocks poised to move in the near term. For the original comments on the stocks below, see The Technical Indicator Library.

Extremely serious. So let me ask you, how many times have you seen Matt Angle play? Are you basing your opinion (which I assume from your comments is negative) on 70AB and some stats you've reviewed?
A_K wrote:But what they've done instead-- the "do nothing of note" plan-- is far preferable to me than the third alternative: throw money around in the high end of the free agent market in order to send a signal to the fans that "you're committed to winning," or whatever other trite cliche would have been used to justify the overpaying of veteran major leaguers who won't meaningfully change the team's W-L record.
A_K wrote:My preference would have been to see a bold offseason in which the team truly committed to building its farm system at the expense of the big league club. Trade Jones, Hardy, Markakis (if possible), Reynolds and Guthrie, while committing what would normally be spent on stop-gap free agents to commitments in the international market. That was my preferred offseason plan.
mthompson wrote:We are not a small market team, so lets stop acting like I does not make sense to sign Fielder. It is not about a few tickets or a few wins its about a 27yo monster bat that you can build around. You can not build around prospects when you do not have many and when the success rate of prospescts varies. The Yankees and Red Sox are in our division and that is not changing. If the orioles were in the AL central, where parody is of the norm, the game plan may change, but that is not the case. Talent is talent and if you look at the free agent market, guys like Prince are not going to be avail at 27. We need tostop overthinking this is baseball. Jones, Markakis , guthrie, wieters are good so you keep them and keep adding. I am not saying go after a free agent ace for 100 million, but you have guthrie who is a 200 inning solid veteran. Why not get an Edwin Jackson at 10 mill a year to give u another 200 inn guy w/ electric stuff. That is 2 solid cogs in a rotation. Just keep getting talent and dont make stupd signings of 35+yo players. Im not saying im 100% right, but come on, we need an infusion of talented young players and a 27 yo fielder and a 28 yo jackson make some sense to me and dont give me the we wont comepete for 2 more years crap, they will still be in the prime of there careers

There's no way around the fundamental reality. Putting Prince Fielder on a 100-loss team wouldn't move the needle for season-long attendance figures.

Altruistic baller alert: MMA Elite is stepping up to pay for Mark Coleman's $100k hip replacement surgery
How refreshing is it when good things actually happen to good people? We could post fifty 3-second knockouts and they wouldn't equal the absolute rawesomeness that is MMA Elite paying for Mark Coleman's six-figure hip surgery after The Hammer's insurance lapsed. We hope Mark recovers and employs his new hip on a vast number of new adventures. He'll be part machine now, and one step closer to being an actual T-1000 series Terminator, which only makes him more dangerous. On the subject of movies, the last time Layzie and I met up with Coleman in Mandalay Bay, we discussed life, love and fighting Fedor. In the article, this comment was posted:
I am a movie producer in Hollywood. I would like to buy the rights to a Mark Coleman biopic starring Vin Diesel. It would be a dramedy on a smallish budget in the style of The Wrestler. Get back to me if there is any interest. Thanks for your time.
For all we know, that 'Producer' could be Ted Malakhov's basement-dwelling cousin, but regardless of location or existence, dude has a point: The Mark Coleman movie needs to be made. I would watch it. Multiple times, even.
Until "The Godfather of Ground and Pound: The Mark Coleman Story" is conceptualized and created, watch this emotional interview discussing the removal of wrestling from the Olympics and MMA Elite's generosity.
For some reason I have this insatiable urge to buy an MMA Elite shirt...

to five-year terms.

meetings are open to the public and rotate throughout the District. For more information about the
trustees, meeting dates and agendas, please visit the
CCS Board of
Trustees website.
Spokane Falls Community College has been named as one of 10 two-year "Founding Institutions"
selected to participate in a national project known as the "Foundations of Excellence® in
the First College Year."
The project, sponsored by the Policy Center on the First Year of College and endorsed by the American
Association of Community Colleges and the League for Innovation in the Community College, will develop
and test a model of excellence for the new student experience. This model can be used to develop and
refine the overall approach to the education of new students. Funding for this project is provided by
the Lumina Foundation for Education.
Since February 2005, the Foundations of Excellence® project has involved over 80 two-year institutions
across the nation in identifying the standards, Foundational Dimensions, which constitute a model first year. Of
the 87 institutions that participated, ten were selected through a competitive application process to continue
work with the Policy Center and its research partner, Educational Benchmarking, Inc. Criteria for selection
included a strong campus commitment to students and readiness to engage in evaluation and improvement.
SFCC joined representatives of other Founding Institutions in Asheville, N.C., on August 4 and 5,
to begin work on this phase of the project. SFCC will now be involved in a year long self-study of the new
student experience. The colleges will refine and pilot use of the Dimensions. This process will include using
performance indicators, reviewing current practices and developing an action plan that documents effective
practices and recommends improvements. Specifically, the colleges will measure their effectiveness in recruiting,
admitting, orienting, supporting, consulting and teaching new students. They will then be able to make programmatic
improvements that will increase student learning, success and persistence. The resulting blueprint will represent
the first nationally integrated examination of the many elements that get students off to the right start.
In describing the importance of the project, John N. Gardner, executive director of the
Policy Center on the First Year of College, located in Brevard, N.C. said, "While much is known about how a
campus can improve new student learning and retention, this information has never been synthesized or translated
into aspirational standards that are reflective of best practice. The absence of clear standards has powerful
educational and financial consequences. This project brings together a number of highly credible researchers,
reformers, and practioners, who are creating the blueprint that for too long has been missing."
In addition to Spokane Falls Community College, other two-year colleges selected to
participate were: Kennebec Valley Community College (Maine), Longview Community College (Missouri), Middlesex
Community College (Connecticut), Montgomery County Community College (Pennsylvania), Oakton Community College
(Illinois), Pellissippi State Technical Community College (Tennessee), San Jacinto College South (Texas),
University of Wisconsin Colleges and Virginia Highlands Community College.

Conair Instant Heat Jumbo and Super Jumbo Rollers
In Stock
Ships within 24 hours
Create big bouncy curls or sexy waves with our Conair Instant Heat Jumbo and Super Jumbo Rollers.
Feb 24, 2014
Just Ok!
I like the size of these rollers and they do produce a nice curl. Not a tight curl but a soft loose curl. The wire clips that come with the set work just fine. I had bought some Conair clips that cover the whole roller but they leave creases in your hair. Can't use those along the hairline. I liked the two sizes and they heated up really quickly. You have to leave the roller in until they are cool for the full effect.

Returned These, Hate Them!
I prepped my hair with a good curling cream and mousse and these rollers still didn't work. They left my hair frizzy and limp, even after leaving these in for 30 minutes. The very minute I took the rollers out the curls and volume disappeared. I applied a good quality hair spray and my hair looked like a huge rats nest. These rollers are the worst and I will be taking them back tomorrow.

Great Value And Works Awesome For Volume And Shine!!
If you are looking for something to smooth you hair out and give it more body, these are a good choice BUT if you want it to form curls you may want to look into another option with smaller rollers. I use them after I have blow dried my hair to get a silky look without using a flat iron. This set is affordable and works better than i predicted.
I would recommend:
1. Heating rollers for at least 5-10 min (85 seconds is not enough!)
2. Wind hair around roller tightly
3. Use hair spray
4. I use the pins that came with it and with practice they are easy to use
5. Leave the rollers in until cool and for as long after that as you can afford to spend
Happy with this purchase! As long as you aren't expecting curls, this is a good choice :)

Not Too Happy
I just bought these new set of rollers, cause my old ones just stop working (remington). I thought I could try something different and I was not too satisfied. These rollers are not enough, they are too thick....I like the thick curl, but these just provided volume to my hair, it didn't curl it. In comparison to the remington rollers, the other set has 24 rollers, different sizes, and the clip it's easier to use.

Took Some Practice . . . And Extra Clips
If youâ??re frustrated with these rollers and want to return them, or just plain chuck them out the window, donâ??t despair - Iâ??ve had this set for over a year and Iâ??m just now coming to appreciate them. After several attempts, I have finally figured out how to turn my long, naturally curly hair into â??Victoriaâ??s Secret modelâ?? hair, full of volume and soft, bouncy curls that last for hours, even in warm, super humid weather. Because it took me so long to get it right, I felt I should write a review to help other ladies who may be struggling. So, hereâ??s the skinny.
Allow rollers to heat up for 20 â?? 30 minutes, with the lid closed.
Hold the section youâ??re rolling as tightly as possible.
Use the included metal pin AND a plastic butterfly hot roller clip (sold separately) to secure the roller in place ~ one or the other doesnâ??t cut it. Trust me, Iâ??ve tried! (Conair couldâ??ve earned themselves a five star review if theyâ??d included the butterfly clips. Iâ??d happily have paid an extra $10 or $15.)
Leave the rollers in your hair until they have cooled COMPLETELY. I typically leave them in place for 1 â?? 1 ½ hours. (I only use hot rollers for special occasions or if I happen to have a LOT of time on my hands, for obvious reasons.)
Also worth mentioning . . . if you have naturally curly hair, gently smooth our your hair using a blow dryer & paddle brush, or even just combing your hair with your fingers as you blow dry. I need to leave a bit of my natural texture in my hair in order for the hot roller curls to last. If I do a blow dryer & round brush â??blow outâ?? prior to using the rollers, my curls will fall out within an hour due to the hair being too smooth.
I hope others will find these tips helpful.

Not Hot
Curlers were not hot enough to do anything and the clips would not hold the curlers in. I have an 'antique' set of hot curlers that work way better...if only they had bigger curlers in the set :o( Returning ASAP.

1928 Olympics
St. Moritz
Sonja Henie of Norway was only 11 years old in 1924 when she participated in her first Olympics and finished last in women's figure skating. Three years later, she won the world championship at age 14 and the year after that was Olympic champion at 15.
Henie would go on to win two more gold medals, a record that her coach, men's champion Gillis Grafstrom of Sweden, set in 1928 with his third straight victory in the Winter Games.
Otherwise, St. Moritz was plagued with warm weather that slowed bobsled and cross-country runs and cancelled the 10,000–meter speed skating race. Speed skater Bernt Evensen of Norway led the Games with three medals, sharing the 500–meter title with Finland's Clas Thunberg. Norway also got two gold medals from Johan Gröttumsbråten in cross-country and the Nordic Combined and led the 25 nations competing with six gold and 15 overall medals. The U.S. edged Sweden for second place.
Top 5 Standings
National medal standings are not recognized by the IOC. The unofficial point totals are based on 3 points for a gold medal, 2 for a silver and 1 for a bronze. Total medals are in parentheses.
Leading Medal Winners
Number of individual medals won on the left; gold, silver and bronze breakdown to the right.
Note: Evensen also placed second in the 10,000–meter speed skating race that was later disallowed due to thawing ice conditions.

Ice Hockey
Championship Round
(Overall record in parentheses)
Note: Canada received a bye to the 4–team championship round robin. The 10 other competing countries—not including the USA which did not send a team—were divided into three pools with the winners advancing to the final round. The Canadians routed Sweden, 11–0; Britain 14–0 and the Swiss, 13–0.

Naperville, IL -- Beloit College received exciting news yesterday, as administrators learned that the Men's Lacrosse program will join the Midwest Lacrosse Conference (MLC) for competition in the 2014-15 academic year.
"We are excited to join the Midwest Lacrosse Conference," said Head Coach Bob Dignazio. "We chose the MLC for a number of reasons, the most significant being the opportunity to compete for the conference's Automatic Qualifying bid to the NCAA Tournament."
The winner of the MLC Tournament earns an automatic bid in the NCAA Division III Tournament. The MLC Tournament Champion has advanced to NCAAs in each of the past three seasons. Last spring, 2013 champion Aurora defeated Ohio Wesleyan in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament, before bowing to Cortland in the Second Round.
In addition to hosting its annual postseason Conference Tournament, the Midwest Lacrosse Conference awards annual All-Conference honors, Academic All-Conference honors, and allows its members to play non-traditional scrimmages in the fall against other NCAA programs.
"Currently our focus is on preparing for the 2014 season," said Dignazio. "We recently ended Fall Ball, and there is a lot to be optimistic about at Beloit. We are focusing on building the right team culture that will become the foundation for our program this season and into the future."
Beloit opens its 2014 season against Elmhurst College at home on Saturday, February 22. The entire schedule can be found here. The upcoming 2014 season will be the program's final year competing as an Independent. In Beloit's inaugural 2013 season, the Bucs finished with a 6-6 overall record.
The Beloit College Women's Lacrosse team will continue to compete in the Midwest Women's Lacrosse Conference.

Vital Records is responsible for the collection and issuance of birth and death certificates and marriage and divorce coupons.
Birth and death certificates serve two purposes. They are the definitive legal documents of identity and they collect important medical information about the two most important events – birth and death.
Marriage and divorce coupons are so called because they are removed from the bottom of marriage and divorce certificates, the original of which is retained in the offices of the county clerk of courts; these coupons contain limited information.
Arkansas Vital Records is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 A.M. until 4:30 P.M. The office is closed on state holidays.
Most certificate requests can be processed the same day if you are in the Vital Records office by 4:00 P.M. and have all the required information needed to search for the certificate. However, for certificate requests such as genealogy from before 1935, paternity affidavits, corrections, etc., same day service is not guaranteed. Customers who arrive in the office after 4:00 P.M. may pick up their request the following day or may ask that it be mailed.
Arkansas Vital Records does not accept credit cards or online orders; however, for your convenience, you can process online requests through an independent company that we have partnered with to provide you this service. An additional fee is charged by this company for using their service, and all major credit cards are accepted, including American Express®, Discover®, MasterCard® or Visa®.
The "Express Service" fee and the original "search fee" are non-refundable if the record is not found. UPS shipping is also available for an additional shipping fee.

Petrolia, Rimouski, Que., will develop production test programs for its Bourque-1 and 2 wells in the eastern Gaspe area of Quebec after consulting engineers found gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons and numerous large vugs in cuttings from the Devonian Forillon carbonate formation in the Bourque-1 well.
Analysis of an imaging log confirmed the presence of a reservoir of good capacity and demonstrated that the Bourque-1 well penetrated numerous zones at 1,465-1,820 m where this type of vuggy porosity is developed.
The regional context of these vugs, which are as large as several tenths of centimeters and are associated with open fracture zones, suggests that weathered zones containing this type of reservoir could be present along the North-West Arm fault, which transects the Bourque structure and is more than 60 km long, Petrolia said.
During drilling, two tests conducted on part of this interval demonstrated the presence of hydrocarbons. One test at the top of the interval recovered 53° gravity oil, and the second in the center of the interval yielded an initial flow of 1.4 MMcfd of wet gas.

The award-winning cell phone accessories maker's latest is the xGO, a rough-and-tumble iPhone 5 case that's waterproof up to 25 feet, and which the company has branded as an "action sports equipped case solution," ideal for the adventurous type.
The xGO blends a plextonium frame with a silicone core and sports a tempered glass screen, so that your iPhone isn't just protected underwater, but maintains full functionality as well.
Meanwhile, the case's mounting system allows you to "effortlessly mount the case to backpacks, bicycles, surfboards," and comes with a bunch of cool screw-in lenses for your phone's camera, like wide angle, fish eye, macro and zoom.
This latest Incipio iPhone case "provides our active enthusiast with the ability to protect their mobile device and take it with them on all their adventures," said Incipio Chief Executive Andy Fathollahi in a statement. It's a solution that "changes the way you use your iPhone 5," the company says.
If you're a rugged, sporty or outdoorsy type and can't wait to get your hands on one, the xGO will start rolling out next month in a number of colors, and will be available along with add-ons like attachments, hardware, nylon hand straps and more.

Speaking at an event held at the Brookings Institution's Falk Auditorium in Washington, D.C., on March 26, Gen. John Allen, the former commander of international forces in Afghanistan, said that the United States would retain a troop presence in Afghanistan sufficiently large to support Afghan forces after the withdrawal of international combat troops at the end of 2014.
General Allen's talk was spun differently in several reports, with ABC News summarizing Allen's optimistic statement: "Afghan security forces have proven themselves to be more capable than anyone expected, and will be ready to take over securing the country [in] 2014."
"They turned out to be better than we thought. They turned out to be better than they thought," said Allen.
ABC reported that Allen attributed the progress made by Afghan security forces to "developmental strategies" as much as "building military capacity." Allen specifically cited the emphasis on developing literacy within the Afghan forces. The report noted:
Allen said the literacy program was championed by international forces commanders — Stanley McChrystal, David Petraeus and then himself — and that he expected Gen. Joseph Dunford to continue the program because of its success. Allen said more than half the Afghan troops now have the capacity to read and write at a first grade level.
ABC's report inadvertently highlighted a curious aspect of the U.S. military campaign in Afghanistan, since Generals Allen, McCrystal, and Petraeus — as well as Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, former Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates (whose career spanned the Bush and Obama administrations), U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan James B. Cunningham, and previous Ambassadors Ryan Crocker and Karl Eikenberry — are all members of the Council on Foreign Relations, a group that has long promoted the interventionist U.S. foreign policy that has led to multiple overseas military operations and full-fledged wars.

The African wild dog, one of the lesser known wild canids, is highly social and spends its entire life in a close-knit, nomadic pack. The group consists of fewer than 15 related males, several adult females, and their pups. The alpha male and female of each pack are usually the only members that breed. Group interactions include elaborate greeting ceremonies with leaping, face licking, tail wagging, and a rich variety of vocalizations.
Wild dogs are the second most endangered carnivore (after the Ethiopian wolf) in Africa. They once ranged throughout the savannah, grassland, and open forest areas of sub-Saharan Africa, but viable populations are now found only in fragmented habitats in Namibia, Botswana, Mozambique, Tanzania, Kenya, and parts of Zimbabwe, Swaziland, and the Transvaal. Only 3,000 to 6,000 remain in the wild. The main threats are habitat fragmentation and isolation due to human activities; contact with human settlements and domestic dogs, which can result in disease transmission; and lack of prey, which sometimes leads to conflicts with farmers over livestock. Lycaon pictus is listed as Endangered by the IUCN Red List.
One pack of wild dogs typically needs a home range of about 385 square miles, but conservationists suggest that areas truly large enough to protect their movements from persecution and diseases in domestic dogs should be 3,850 square miles—nearly the size of the state of Connecticut. Connecting some parks and reserves in Africa is helping to create larger areas for this species, and measures to protect the dogs outside parks are needed.
WCS and partner organizations have issued a new report emphasizing paramount threats to wildlife in Southern Africa. Illegal hunting, the bushmeat trade, and unselective snaring are compromising already-fragile species.
The government of Tanzania plans to build a highway through Serengeti National Park, potentially disrupting one of the
world's biggest migrations of large mammals and jeopardizing a popular tourism destination. WCS and partners urge the country's officials to consider alternate routes.

Have you ever worried about falling asleep while you are driving? What if you could have an app on your unlocked iphone 4 that would help you to stay awake even when you are on a long road trip and are having trouble staying awake with the heater blaring at you?
A new app called the Anti-sleep Pilot app will help you to stay awake. The app is built to help you out when you might be tiring on the road. When you first start up the app, you give the app a number of details about you to give it a good idea of when it needs to start working. The app will also take the time of the day into account straight from your iPhone 4 unlocked clock. Some of the questions will deal with your work hours and when you expect to fall asleep at night.
The app tries to judge exactly how alert you are and tries to judge when you should probably pull over and sleep it off for a little bit. Unfortunately, the app costs twenty dollars, which seems a bit high given what other apps are out there for much lower prices. In today's day and age, nearly everyone thinks that they are the best drivers on the road so this app may not take off like the company had hoped it would, but nonetheless it is a very interesting idea and could help out individuals that have long commutes.
It will be tough to convince individuals to make the purchase at this high price tag but for those that truly need it, it might just have the perfect price point for making sure that you do not fall asleep behind the wheel. Expect to see some copy cat apps coming out in the future for a lower price point since most publications have pointed to the price as the largest drawback for a potentially very solid app.

Your electronic drum kit looks great and sounds great, but like any good drummer, now you're looking for more! With additional trigger pads you can bring even more sounds and styles to your electronic kit repertoire. Trigger pads can add amazing versatility to your sound. Think of the legendary Bobby Z's drums on the recording of Prince's Purple Rain, achieved in part by the use of a trigger pad attached to his snare drum. Whether you're going entirely electric, or mixing and matching components for a truly unique sound, there are plenty of trigger pad options for you. One of the great benefits of drum trigger pads is the amount of space they save in your practice area or on the stage. A trigger provides the same great sound of your favorite drum, or cymbal, while taking up a fraction of the space the real thing would. When searching for new trigger pads, the first question you have to ask yourself is "what kind of sound are you looking for?" Different triggers will offer different results. Are you after a new bass drum sound? If so, a Roland KD85 Kick Trigger would be worth checking out, whereas if you're looking for a new cymbal to up the tempo, a Yamaha PCY155-3 could be right for you. If you're looking for something that's a lot more portable, but still provides the power of a full sized electronic drum kit, a drum synthesizer like the Nord Drum 2 or the ddrum DD1 can provide you with a seemingly endless array of possibilities. Customize your tone to make it warm and deep, bright and punchy, or anything in between. You'll get the dynamic response you've come to expect from your kit, with sounds produced in real-time that allow for constant sonic exploration. As technology advances we're able to explore musical avenues never before thought possible. With a variety of drum triggers attached to your kit, you can save space while taking your distinct style to the next level.

GREAT BEND Carthage Central School District will give the public several opportunities for an open dialogue.
After a lively public forum June 11, the Board of Education decided at the July 8 meeting that the next forum will be Sept. 18.
At previous meetings, board members discussed having multiple forums throughout the school year.
Board member Lyndsey M. Hodkinson said comment boxes should be placed at each school for people who could not attend a forum. No decision was reached last week.
Superintendent Peter J. Turner said the district will better use Black River Elementary, a topic that was discussed extensively at the previous forum.
Were looking at a bus run shift, he said. It would tentatively shift 51 students from West Carthage to Black River. This is a reaction to the forum.
After the meeting, Mr. Turner said that this will affect only people on Fort Drum and that letters would be sent to gauge their reaction. He said the district spoke to officials on post several times to reach the decision.
They believed those parents would be receptive to having their kids closer to post, he said.
He said the bus ride time will not be significantly different, but Black River Elementary features smaller classes.
In other business, Business Manager Amy M. Marrocco said the district received its first high-impact aid check for $7.5 million from the federal government in May.
To receive high-impact aid, a district must have more than 50 percent military-related enrollment. Carthage was at 56 percent this year.
Mrs. Marrocco said that after speaking to Indian River Central Business Manager James R. Koch, she knows the district must keep the per-pupil cost less than the state or national average, whichever is higher.
If not, the district will be bumped back down to regular impact aid for the next three years.
She suggested the board use the money to pay off serial bonds in 2014-15, add buses to the next budget rather than put them in a separate proposition next year or ask voters whether the district can establish a $10 million capital reserve for future projects.
Because the money was received in May, the district will go into the school year with a bigger fund balance than expected, Mrs. Marrocco said.
Its a nice problem to have, Mr. Turner said. You dont know when all that money is going to show in our bank account.

A Massena woman has been named in a federal indictment alleging she and another woman filed more than $500,000 in fraudulent tax returns, mostly on behalf of 50 to 60 people living in the Massena area who did not know the returns were fraudulent.
Lacey J. Hollinger, 27, along with Elaine M. Zavala-Charres, 33, Phoenix, Ariz., was charged Wednesday in U.S. District Court, Syracuse, with seven counts of operating a mail fraud scheme to defraud the Internal Revenue Service and two counts of aggravated identity theft. The mail fraud counts carry a sentence of up to 20 years in prison and a fine up to $250,000.
According to the U.S. attorneys office, the pair allegedly operated a scheme to defraud the IRS from January 2012 to May in St. Lawrence County and elsewhere. The scheme involved using personal identification information acquired through fraud to file tax returns with false income levels to generate fraudulent refunds. The scheme involved the submission of more than $500,000 in fraudulent tax returns to the IRS in tax years 2011 and 2012, primarily in New York and Arizona.
According to a criminal complaint filed in the matter, in late 2012, several Massena residents contacted law enforcement agencies to complain that they had been defrauded of money they had been promised by Ms. Hollinger as federal tax refunds or stimulus money. It is alleged that Ms. Hollinger maintained a Facebook posting that advertised that she was filing tax returns or stimulus claims and even if the person was not employed or had no income, Ms. Hollinger claimed she could file a tax return entitling the person to $5,000.
A woman, identified in documents only as A.A. and who had attended junior high school with Ms. Hollinger, told federal agents that a neighbor had contacted Ms. Hollinger through Facebook and provided her with personal information about A.A. and her boyfriend, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth and childrens names. A.A., who was not employed and was receiving public assistance, then contacted Ms. Hollinger through Facebook and text messages and allegedly was told that both she and her boyfriend would receive $1,500 in refunds, with Ms. Hollinger keeping $50 from each refund. Neither A.A. nor her boyfriend ever received any money, although IRS records reflect that a 2011 tax return was filed electronically for A.A., resulting in a $4,038 refund.
Agents showed A.A. a copy of the return, which showed her occupation as a baby sitter earning wages of $16,450, even though A.A. did no baby sitting and earned no wages. The $4,038 refund allegedly was sent to a Phoenix bank account in Ms. Zavala-Charress name. According to court documents, Ms. Hollinger had moved to Arizona after attending high school in Massena and had met Ms. Zavala-Charres in a battered womens shelter. Ms. Zavala-Charres told Ms. Hollinger that she used to be a tax preparer and, after Ms. Hollinger returned to Massena, Ms. Zavala-Charres asked her to recruit people whose personal information could be used in a tax fraud scheme.
According to the criminal complaint, Ms. Hollinger agreed to make contact with friends and associates to recruit people for the scheme. In addition to Facebook, she posted advertisements on Topix.com, presenting herself as tax girl and claiming she could get tax refunds. She then allegedly forwarded the information she obtained from acquaintances to Ms. Zavala-Charres, who prepared the returns. Some of the people who had provided information to Ms. Hollinger also sent text messages directly to Ms. Zavala-Charres.
According to the complaint, none of the people providing information knew that it was being used to prepare fraudulent tax returns and also did not know that refunds from the returns were being sent to Ms. Zavala-Charres. Ms. Hollinger allegedly was paid $50 for each referral, with Ms. Zavala-Charres loading money onto a prepaid debit card for Ms. Hollinger. Some Massena people who provided information to Ms. Hollinger did receive a portion of the refunds in the form of prepaid debit cards, although court documents show that agents are unclear as to how many people received refunds or how much they received.

At Who What Wear headquarters, we don't associate the phrase "March Madness" with basketball--at least not this year! Instead of conjuring up visions of brackets and Final Four bets, for us it's just a nod to a very busy month that's packed with an insane amount of spring fashion coverage. (And the fact that we're on our book tour makes it even crazier if that's possible!) In addition to loving and showcasing all of the season's new trends, we've also been searching for great outfit ideas to share with you, dear readers. Happily the latter was a breeze, thanks to today's amazing batch of stylish ladies. Whether they're pairing a bright blazer with quirky neutrals or mixing boho accents with wardrobe basics, their inspiring styling choices are the fashion equivalent of a slam-dunk--in other words, crowd-pleasing and cool! Be sure to read on to learn more about each look and for our suggestions on how you can emulate these amazing outfits.
Tip #1: Punctuate a polished look with a string bow-tie top.
Once in a blue moon, we discover an accessory that gives us the same sort of rush we used to get from playing dress up, without making us feel like a kitschy 10-year-old (assuming such a thing exists). This time, that accent piece is the string bow tie. We've recently spotted this trend on stylesetters like Chloe Sevigny and Fearne Cotton, so naturally we were pleased to see this accessory has also hit the streets. We like how Nicole, 24, from Italy, focused the attention on her bow-tie blouse by pairing it with a minimalist outfit. The black skinny jeans styled with a tailored blazer and black accessories pull the outfit together, making it interesting--not overwhelming. Not sure where to find a shirt with a skinny tie? We've got you covered! ASOS' Panel Tie Jersey Shirt ($45) would look très chic paired with a crisp blazer and black skinnies. For a more detailed blouse, we suggest picking up Pepe Jeans' Tie-Front Shirt ($45) and styling it with a black pair of tailored shorts.
Tip #2: A neon dress adds a fun pop of color to an all-black outfit.
Neons are the new neutrals this spring, and we think the perfect way to prep for the season is to start mixing these fluorescent hues with your darker winter separates like Veronica, 23, from Milan, does. She chose a charming pink mini dress to accent her all-black outfit--a bold look that is easily emulated. Start with a great pop of neon, like BB Dakota's Terry Dress ($80), and then throw on some black Hue Opaque Tights ($13) and Aldo's Capecoral Pumps ($80). To finish it off, elevate the outfit with MICHAEL Michael Kors' Kingston Large Tote ($348) in black.
Tip #3: Liven up your quirky neutrals with an ultra-bright blazer.
We would like to hypothesize that the greater the pop of color in any given outfit, the greater your chances are that you will have created a spring-worthy ensemble. Speculation aside, nothing makes a color stand out better than mixing it with quirky neutrals, like Kamila, 19, from Poland, shows us. Her electric blue statement blazer is the epitome of understated cool, especially when paired with platform boots, stonewashed jeans, and strong accessories, including a furry purse, chunky necklace, and bold cuff. (We also think the bright red lipstick is a nice touch.) Gear up for the coming months with Rachel Roy's Pocket Jacket ($395) or, if you'd like to experiment with an orange blazer à la Jil Sander, we think Steven Alan's Spring Renada Blazer ($395) is a great option too.
Tip #4: Simple pieces look great styled with boho accents.
We understand the sartorial ingredients that make an outfit 'cool' are not always black and white, so when we discovered Emma, 20, from Sydney, we knew we had to share. Her wardrobe basics--a simple ankle-length skirt, tucked-in tank, and a cropped vest--look darling when combined with boho accents like wood sandals and a wide-brimmed hat, and the result is an effortlessly darling ensemble. The key to recreating this look, you ask? Less is more. Try mixing Equipment's Signature Sleeveless Blouse ($187) with Pins and Needles' Chiffon Maxi Skirt ($54) to create a minimal foundation. Then, accessorize with boho accents like Topshop's Black Oversize Round Sunglasses ($32) and Madewell's Leather Sahara Sandals ($168). We also suggest grabbing Pins and Needles' Basic Straw Floppy Hat ($29) for good measure!
Tip #5: A fun, printed midi skirt feels fresh for spring.
From the full, pleated skirts at Chloe to the sultry skirt-suits at Versace, the mid-calf hemline is back in a big way this spring. While we're no strangers to this shin-centric look (we were ogling full skirts back in November), we think there are plenty of ways to freshen up this trend, which is why we are obsessed with the slim, printed midi we spotted on Sybil, 23, from Hong Kong. We love how she picked a skirt with lots of spring elements--specifically, a dainty floral print and a leg-baring slit--and paired it with a long-sleeved top and wood sandals for a pitch-perfect transitional ensemble. Fortunately, it isn't hard to stumble upon an amazing midi skirt these days, but if you'd like a little guidance, we suggest Topshop's Navy Long Clover Bud Print Wrap Skirt ($78). It's an excellent option if you're looking for the perfect floral to incorporate into your wardrobe. If you prefer a brighter pop of color, we also adore Truly Madly Deeply's Printed Below-The-Knee Pencil Skirt ($39).
Tip #6: Tailored shorts are a smart alternative to mini skirts.
In addition to stocking up on neon accessories and '70s-inspired jeans for spring, we're totally into the idea of replacing our staple mini skirts with chic, tailored shorts. So we were delighted when we spotted this flattering piece on Marcella, 22, from New Zealand. She opted for sweet separates--including a tiered tank and a lightweight blazer--topped off with edgy accents, like a leopard belt and stilettos. If you're interested in snagging a similar pair of shorts, we recommend Alice + Olivia's Cady Cuff Shorts ($154) or Forever 21's Belted Trouser Shorts ($20) for a more budget-friendly option.--Nicole Kliest

The Control 2P Compact Powered Reference Monitor System combines JBL's legendary loudspeaker design with...
For professional audio production, accurate sound quality is absolutely crucial. That's why you need a great-performing set of studio monitors to make sure that you can hear every detail and nuance of your work. There are audiophiles out there with amazingly true-to-life sound systems, and you've got to be one step ahead to make sure that your tracks will sound flawless even on those high-end setups. This is where JBL recording gear comes in. One of the most respected names in speaker technology, JBL always delivers outstanding performance in their monitors and recording equipment.
If you're looking for something portable so you can set up an impromptu studio anywhere you go, check out the JBL Control 2P Compact Powered Monitor System. With their accommodating size and pro-level features, these monitors are perfect for a desktop recording or production studio, top-quality A/V presentations, broadcast applications or electronic instrument monitoring.
For your permanent studio setup, any of the monitors you'll find here are fantastic choices. If you want absolute confidence in your speakers' fidelity, you might find the JBL LSR4328P Studio Monitor Pair especially interesting. They've got some absolutely top-shelf components inside, but that's not all. What's even more impressive is their self-adjusting feature that uses a calibration microphone to make sure they're always sounding perfect. These monitors can literally listen to themselves and tweak their own settings for reliably consistent performance.
Maybe you're not looking for a new set of monitors but that auto-calibration still sounds pretty nice to you? If that's the case, you've got to take a look at the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller. It works with any monitors (even the ones you already have) and uses a "Room Mode Correction" function to eliminate low-frequency issues in the recording room. Designed to be the hub of your monitoring system, the MSC1 can take input from three stereo sources, so you've got the option to plug in a few other things besides your mixer.
Audio professionals need flawless listening. JBL gets that, and the impressive sound of their monitors and subwoofers definitely proves it. They've even gone so far as to give you a way to improve any sound system with the MSC1 controller. When you want to hear everything with unbeatable fidelity, JBL recording gear is the answer.

Master Pancake
THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN Part 1
|Bill Condon
|Run Time
|Age Policy
18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.
While the movie screens, the professional mockers of Master Pancake add their comedic commentary to the mix. Along the way we also have an audience-chosen drinking game and a mid-movie skit (STOP THE MOVIE). Master Pancake has been voted Austin's Best Comedy Troupe for the last 5 years by the Austin Chronicle. Buzzfeed lists Master Pancake as one of the 34 things Austinites love, along with FRANKLIN BBQ and RYAN GOSLING.
Master Pancake returns to Forks for the FOURTH installment in the TWILIGHT Series: BREAKING DAWN PART 1 (2011), based on the novel by Stephenie Myer, a book so dense with quality that they had to break it into two parts to do it justice. Part 1 finds Edward and Bella honeymooning in Brazil, where the audience will thrill to the gripping lounging around the beach scenes (vampires LOVE the beach) and the enthralling chess-playing scenes (!?). The monotony is briefly suspended for the amazing honeymoon consummation scene, before returning to the unbelievable absurdity of the rest of the movie,most of which concerns Bella conceiving a child and Jacob the werewolf imprinting on it, which is actually worse than it sounds. Come out and watch Master Pancake break wind all over BREAKING DAWN PART 1. (John)
