Pulling out the same old chipped ornaments, ragged wreaths, snagged stockings and a tangle of rainbow-colored lights? This season, it's time to ditch the what-was décor and visit four of our favorite festive local shops. They're bursting at the seams with fresh finds to help you get your home haute for the holidays.
Don't let the name fool you; this is much more than a garden store (though year-round, it's a great resource for green thumbs). During the holidays, this is the go-to spot for fun and festive decorating ideas and gifts. Their themed holiday displays are among the best in the city, using unique decorations and seasonal foliage. 678 S. 700 East, 801-595-6622
Stock up on traditional holiday plants like poinsettias and Christmas Cacti. If you're dreaming of a white Christmas, choose white-flowering plants like phalaenopsis, hydrangea, azalea and paperwhites. Talented designers can create custom plant and floral gifts. And don't forget to stop by the gift shop, offering a well-edited selection home and garden accessories. 2735 S. 2000 East, SLC, 801-485-2542; 12252 S. Draper Gate Drive, Draper, 801-676-0935
The charming Salt Lake boutique and floral shop—and a second Draper outpost—are filled to the brim with traditional favorites. Think glittering ornaments, candy cane-striped accessories, fluffy white-bearded Santa figurines and pine- and cranberry-scented candles and lotions, plus festive florals, great garlands and unique made-to-order wreaths.444 S. 700 East, SLC, 801-521-4773; 611 W. 12300 South, Draper, 801-542-7159
A holiday decorator's paradise. Rows of tinsel-strewn trees, towers of twinkling lights and endless shelves of candy-colored ornaments make Modern Display a one-stop shop for holiday goods. For inspiration, check out their color-coordinated holiday vignettes. 424 S. 700 East, SLC, 801-355-7427

Yep, I'm the NFG. I have lurked around your site here and I am impressed with the level of knowledge found here. I am going to buy an FAL, I just don't know when and which one. I do not feel like I am even remotely qualified to build one, so I will have get a store bought rifle. I am sure that each of you has a personal preference and that htis may well start a lot an argument, but here are my questions:
I have the money to buy a CAI from J&G but there is some negativity about the quality of the CAI brand. Would it be better to wait until I have enough to buy a better quality rifle? This may take a year or more and I'm a married man. My wife keeps wanting to blow it on bills.
I have gotten the impression that the CAI guns are either really good or a POS depending on the condition of the parts used to assemble them. Which am I more likely to get a good parts set in, a metric or inch FAL? Which is more likely to have a bunch of worn out crap installed? Is one newer or less likely to be badly worn than the other?

It's always happy hour when you consult your Spirit Guide. Your best friend for bar-hopping lets you in on the drink and food specials, tells you where the music is (and isn't) and helps you find the perfect spot. A great night out starts with Spirit Guide.

A few years after being ousted from its nearly decade-long home in Nob Hill, O'Niell's Pub has migrated east up Central and reopened in a new (but reassuringly familiar) space. All the old standouts like fish and chips and the "Burger in Paradise" are still here and as good as they ever were. Tractor Brewing's O'Niell's Irish Red is a perfectly balanced beer drunk by itself or with everything from chicken wings to chocolate cake. They're comforting, a little cheeky and unapologetically Irish-American. Just like O'Niell's Pub. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

A lawsuit filed in Pulaski County challenges the secretary of state's ability to block individuals from establishing new corporations when they owe debts for old ones.
A spokesman for Secretary of State Mark Martin said the office refuses to accept new papers of incorporation filed by individuals whose former corporations' statues were revoked for not paying franchise taxes. A representative must file an application with the secretary of state's office and pay any due franchise tax to dissolve a corporation.
Sherwood attorney A. Vaughan Hankins filed the lawsuit on behalf of Byron McKimmey, a Pulaski County real-estate developer who tried to form a limited-liability company but was refused because he was told that he was a member of another corporation that owed delinquent franchise taxes, according to a story published Monday in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (http://bit.ly/15OXBM7 ).
The statute and policy "seek to unlawfully restrict the freedom of citizens to participate in lawful activities to coerce the payment of delinquent taxes from individual persons who are not liable for the payment of such taxes," Hankins wrote. "Franchise taxes are taxes on an entity; they are not taxes for which individual persons are responsible. Furthermore, individual stockholders, members or officers of the entity are separate and distinct from the entity."
Martin's spokesman, Alex Reed, said the office is working to file an answer to the lawsuit in court.

ZF-2171: Add select params to findDependentRowset and such
In Zend_Db_Table_Row, you can easily fetch dependent table rows and parent rows via foreign keys. Unlike fetchAll(), findDependentRowset() and findParentRow() and findManyToMany() does not allow to set specific where, order, count and offset clauses. The patch attached add these parameters to the formers functions.
Magics function findTables, findParentTables and findTablesViaTables are handled as well.
I use patche Zend_Db_Table_Row_Abstract for some weeks without problems.
Regards, Étienne.
Here is the promised patch. Docblocks are updated too.
Hi, ~bersace], have you submitted a signed [CLA yet? Until we have proof that we have license to do so, we cannot use the attached patch as-is.
Please complete a CLA for us so that we can directly use additional contributions from you. :) Thanks!
I see that you have submitted a CLA - thank you! Once this has been processed, we can incorporate your contributions with Zend Framework. Welcome to the framework development community! :)
Thanks Darby,
I wish you'll like the patch.
Regards, Étienne.
My CLA is Ok, thanks to Melissa. I now belong to zf-framework-dev group.
Regards, Étienne.
Hi Etienne - these enhancements have been covered off in the Zend_Db_Table Enhancements proposal and are already up-and-running as of ZF1.5 PR1 - I encourage you to try them out and send your feedback.

The mission of the Schoolcraft College International Institute is to coordinate cross-cultural learning opportunities for students, faculty, staff and the community.
The Institute strives to enhance the international content of coursework, programs, and other College activities so participants better appreciate both the diversities and commonalities among world cultures, and better understand the global forces shaping people's lives.
Students and other learners in the 21st century need to understand the global forces shaping their lives and the lives of people worldwide. They need to be exposed to a variety of cultures, and to understand how key issues and endeavors are affected by the interdependence of all peoples and nations. Schoolcraft College considers such global literacy to be an integral part of everyone's education.
This broad need is addressed by the Schoolcraft College International Institute (SCII). Created in 1994 and funded by the College, SCII is a coalition of interested faculty from many disciplines — along with supporters from among the students, staff, and community — all working together to help deepen the international perspective of Schoolcraft curricula and programming.
To date, SCII has focused on:

Quick exercises for easy weight loss
Want to transform your body but don't have a lot of time? Try this 12-move, 20-minute total body workout from Reebok Global Instructor Sara Haley. Simply throw the moves into a hat and pull them out one by one to set the order of your workout for the day (just make sure you always do the "Hustle" warm-up first). Perform each exercise 20 times before moving on to the next one, stopping for water breaks or to catch your breath as needed. And forget fancy equipment: This workout only requires one set of 12-pound dumbbells and Haley has provided you with modifications that make each move easier as well as challenges to take the intensity up a notch. By constantly adjusting the routine , you'll never hit the dreaded plateau. Click next to start achieving your best body!
Always begin with this exercise as a warm-up.
Step 1: Alternate lifting your knees to your chest four times (right, left, right, left).
Step 2: Alternate kicking your butt four times (like a hamstring curl). Make sure to use your arms like you are really running. Repeat entire sequence 20 times.
Benefit: By lifting your legs high, your hips and hamstrings will mobilize and your core will activate. As you kick your butt, your quads dynamically stretch as you reach your heel towards your butt. As you pick up your pace, you'll get your heart rate up and your body ready to work.
Step 1: Begin by squatting with hands on the floor in front of you.
Step 2: Jump your feet back to a push up position and simultaneously lower your chest to the floor.
Step 3: Using your arms to push up, return to squat position.
Step 4: Jump up and clap your hands together. Repeat 20 times.
Modifications: a) Walk feet out and in, instead of jumping back and forth.
b) Hold the top of a push up, instead of letting your chest hit the floor.
c) Reach up instead of jumping.
Benefit: Full-body workout that will get your heart rate up quickly.
As you jump up, simultaneously kiss your feet together and clap your hands.
Step 1: Holding one weight with your feet shoulder width apart, pick up your right toes and your left heel to rotate all the way to the right. As you rotate, bring your free weight up to form a diagonal line from your shoulders.
Step 2: In one motion swing it down over your left leg as you rotate into a lunge. Repeat 10 times and then repeat 10 times to the other side.
Modification: Take away the free weight and instead clasp your hands together with straight arms.
Benefit: Full-body workout that targets the obliques—one of the best belly blasters around!
After you rotate up, squeeze your butt to lift your back leg up off the floor.
Step 1: Rotate your hips out with your knees tracking over your toes, and squat as far to the floor as you can, putting your hands on the floor in front of you.
Step 2: Push up from the floor, jumping up in the air. Land with bent knees to protect the joints and go back into your squat to prepare for the next jump. Repeat 20 times with little to no stop in between.
Modifications: a) Until you gain flexibility, put your hands on your thighs instead of the floor.
b) Reach up instead of jumping.
Benefit: Excellent cardio exercise that targets the legs and butt and opens up the hips.
On each jump perform a 180-degree turn. After 10 times rotate the opposite direction.
Step 1: Hold a 12-pound weight in each hand and begin in a plank (top of a push up) with the feet wide.
Step 2: Soften the knees and squeeze the legs together (like a jumping jack).
Step 3: Jump back out to your wide plank.
Step 4: Row one weight to your rib cage, keeping your hips square to the floor. Repeat jack and then row on the other side. Repeat 20 times (10 on each side).
Modification: Execute entire combination on all fours with no Jack.
Challenge: Repeat 12 jacks in a row, followed by 12 rows on the right, 12 jacks, and 12 rows on the left.
Benefit: Better than any crunches you could ever do, plank will help define your abs and keep your entire core strong. The jack tests the stability of your plank, especially your hips and back so work to keep your hips facing the floor and your shoulder blades squeezing together. The row will also challenge your stability as it strengthens and sculpts your back and shoulders.
Step 1 & 2: Staying on the balls of the feet, quickly step and touch your feet together all the way to the right (Ideally give yourself 15 feet). Shuffle back to the left. This is one rep. Repeat 20 times.
Modification: Shorten the distance or slow down.
Benefit: Targets the inner and outer thighs, gets your heart rate up, and burns calories.
a) Bend your knees and get closer to the floor.
b) Touch the floor once you shuffle all the way to the right and again once you go back all the way to the left.
c) Hold one free weight at chest level.
Step 1: Sit with your hands behind your butt and feet right under your knees, with your toes lifted off the floor. Hold onto your free weights (to help keep wrists comfortable and stable) and lift your butt up off the floor.
Step 2: Lower your body down by bending at the elbow working the triceps.
Step 3 & 4: After you push back up, keep your arms straight and walk your feet out and in (right, left, right, left). Lower back down into your dip. Repeat 10 times leading with the right leg and then 10 times leading with the left.
Modification: Perform tricep dip without the walk.
Challenge: Elevate your body on a chair or table and walk out and in when you lower down AND when you push up.
Benefit: Get rid of flabby arms once and for all as you challenge your core, glutes and hamstrings all at the same time.
Step 1: Begin with one leg crossed behind the other. Reach your opposite arm across towards the supporting leg.
Step 2: Just like a professional speed-skater, hop laterally (side to side) and cross back with the opposite leg. One rep equals one hop to the right and one hop to the left. Repeat 20 times quickly.
Modification(s): a) Rather than hopping side to side, slide so the feet stay close to the floor.
b) Tap the leg down rather than balancing on one leg.
Benefit: As you work for speed, it becomes a great cardio exercise. Targets the "saddlebag" area that is so hard to get rid of—works outer thighs, hips, glutes and abs all at the same time.
a) Land on one leg with the opposite foot crossing back but not touching the floor.
b) Stay low and try to touch the floor with the reaching arm.
Step 1: Begin in the top of a pushup position with your hands directly underneath your shoulders.
Step 2: Lower yourself down keeping your elbows close to your sides to work the triceps and chest.
Step 3: As you return rotate your body completely to one side, stack your feet into a side plank. Hold for a count of two before returning center. Push up again and rotate to the opposite side. Repeat 20 times (10 on each side).
Modifications: a) Perform pushup with knees on floor.
b) When you rotate to side plank cross your top leg behind the front leg.
Challenges: a) As you push up slowly count to four.
b) In side plank lift the top leg up.
Benefit: To perform a successful pushup and side plank (let alone 20), your entire body has to stay tight so you actually end up working every muscle in your body. Additionally, by keeping the elbows in tight you work the triceps more than a regular pushup, while finally getting rid of those turkey arms.
Step 1: Begin on all fours with your left leg extended back and your right hand behind your head.
Step 2: Round your back to the ceiling and slowly bring your opposing knee and elbow to meet into the center of your body. Repeat 10 times and then 10 times on the other side.
Modifications: Keep both hands on the floor and just extend the leg.
Benefit: Strengthen and lengthen your spine and work your entire core, especially the neglected lower back.
As you extend back out, lift the leg and rotate your torso to your right.
Step 1: Holding one weight at chest level, start with your legs shoulder-width apart. Squat down with your chest lifted and weight in your heels. Come up quickly so your legs straighten to get full hip extension.
Step 2: Cross your right leg behind your left (enough so you see your right foot on the other side) and lunge down, lowering your weight to the floor. Bicep curl the weight to your chest as you stand back up. Repeat 10 times and then repeat on the other side.
Modification: Get rid of the weight and place your hands on your hips.
Benefit: By combining these two leg exercises together you'll tone your entire lower body. You'll hit up your glutes, quads and hamstrings with the squat and target your outer and inner thighs with the curtsey (remember to squeeze those inner thighs tight as you curtsey lunge).
Lift the moving knee up to attach at inner thigh inbetween each squat and lunge, and/or add a shoulder press as the knee lifts up.
Step 1: Lying on your back, with your hands behind your head, pull your knees into your chest and lift your shoulders up off the floor.
Step 2: As you slowly extend one leg out, rotate your torso to the opposite leg. After you rotate, think of lifting up even higher and holding for a few seconds. Repeat on the other side. Repeat 20 times (10 on each side).
Modification: Keep the extended leg on more of an angle.
Challenge: Lift your shoulders even higher off the floor, and lower the extended leg closer to the floor.
Benefit: Strengthen your abs and sculpt your love handles away!

Women's Tennis Enjoys Another Winning Day in Missouri and Philadelphia
Katherine Flanigan, Emily Hahn and Dorothy Tang collectively contributed to two wins over ITA nationally-ranked doubles pairs for the Princeton women's tennis team on the second day of the Mizzou Tennis Aces for the Cure in Kansas City.

Find prayer compromise
Published: Thursday, May 16, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 at 1:56 p.m.
Editor: Some blame the ACLU for stopping prayer before government meetings. I agree with the ACLU. If I was at a meeting where someone was praying in the name of Allah or some other god, I'd have to get up and leave. As a Christian, I have no choice but to stand entirely for my God, the Lord Jesus Christ.
There is a simple answer to this. Forewarn all in attendance that you are going to pray in the name of Jesus, Allah or whomever before you start and allow all who object to step into the hall until prayer is over. Tell them when you are finished that you will open the door, so they can come back in. I know if someone was going to pray to Allah or Buddha that I'd appreciate being forewarned. Even atheists should allow others to enjoy the rights given by their creator under the Constitution to pray without being hindered.
Our country was founded upon the principle that our government should not establish any religion, but our Constitution also forbids hindering the free exercise thereof. We should be allowed to pray in Jesus' name anywhere we choose. Muslims can take over streets or parks to bow their heads to the ground for Allah, so I submit that religious freedom should be extended to Christians also.
Students normally arrive 30 minutes before classes start, so if someone wanted to have prayer and Bible reading to start their day, they should be allowed free exercise of religion in our schools, too. Simply announce what you are going to do lest you offend someone. You may pray in your homeroom or auditorium while those who object could go to the library or pray to their god in the hall or even outside weather permitting.
You don't have to take away anyone's right to pray or read their holy book. Just have them gather together in their own places. If only a few Christians want to enjoy their right to pray, let them use a small space: the library, hall, gym or whatever.
We should be willing to work this out among ourselves instead of going into litigation at great expense to anyone desiring to enjoy their right to religious freedom. Most of the people in America are pretty smart, at least, here in the South they are, and we do not want to have to kowtow to political correctness and suppress anyone's freedom to worship as they choose. God bless America.

This daytime moisturizer with sunscreen doesn't offer your skin any premium benefits. Although it does provide UVA protection thanks to avobenzone, the plant oils and antioxidants won't remain stable due to the jar packaging. All plant extracts, vitamins, antioxidants, and other state-of-the-art ingredients break down in the presence of air, so once a jar is opened and lets the air in, these important ingredients begin to deteriorate. Jars also are unsanitary because you're dipping your fingers into them with each use, adding bacteria, which further deteriorate the beneficial ingredients.
Beautiful, smooth skin all day! This day cream with effective active ingredients is formulated to make skin noticeably firmer and smoother. Arctic sea buckthorn oil together with tri-peptides compound helps to reactivate the skin's natural mechanisms. UVA/UVB protection helps prevent the formation of age spots and protects against the ageing effects of exposure to sunlight.
Active: Avobenzone (3%), Octinoxate (7.5%), Octisalate (2%), Oxybenzone (2%), Other: Purified Water, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil Unsaponifiables, Cetearyl Alcohol, Squalane, Butylene Glycol, Aluminum Starch Octenyl Succinate, Glycerin, Shea Butter, Cetearyl Glucoside, Phenoxyethanol, Hippophae Rhamnoides Oil, Peg-100 Stearate, Glyceryl Stearate, Avocado Oil, Dimethicone, Silica, Polyacrylamide, Methylparaben, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Disodium EDTA, PEG-8, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Carbomer, Tocopherol, Laureth-7, Sodium Hyaluronate, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Polysorbate 20, Sodium Hydroxide, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3, Ascorbic Acid, Citric Acid, Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, Citronellol, Eugenol, Geraniol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Hydroxycitronellal, Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde, Limonene, Linalool, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Alpha Methyl Ionone, Red 33, Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides, Fragrance
Lumene At-A-Glance
Strengths: Relatively inexpensive; a handful of good options for sensitive skin; one good eye cream, though you don't need an eye cream—you can use any well-formulated moisturizer around the eye area; every SPF-rated product provides reliable UVA protection; Blueberry Curl Mascara has a well-deserved reputation as an outstanding way to enhance lashes.
Weaknesses: Jar packaging is pervasive; the Excellent Future products and most of the Time Freeze products aren't helpful for antiaging or wrinkles; several products contain more preservative or film-forming agent than the ingredients your skin really needs to look younger and healthier; no products for acne or effective products for those struggling with uneven skin tone or discolorations; no exfoliants.
The Cosmetics Cop Team strongly suspects that the interest in this product line from Finland is its prestige packaging, coupled with a relatively attractive price point. This is an eye-catching brand that really stands out on drugstore shelves; however, these products aren't really all that inexpensive, especially in comparison to products from Olay, Neutrogena, or RoC. In the United States, you'll find Lumene products at most CVS drugstores as well as at Ulta, Target, and Walgreens. Although the Cosmetics Cop Team loves to find and recommend inspired skin-care and makeup products at reasonable prices, this line isn't one of them.
Two major shortcomings are: (1), the jar packaging, which means any state-of-the-art ingredients in those products won't remain stable once the jar is opened because they deteriorate in the presence of air, and (2), most of Lumene's formulas contain only a dusting of the superstar ingredients they brag about. Vitamin C, ceramides, antioxidants, peptides, and the like are all essential, brilliant ingredients for skin, but when only minute amounts are included, your skin isn't getting much of the good stuff.
What it comes down to is this: Shopping Lumene shortchanges your skin, leaving it needing, and deserving, far better. A bargain isn't a bargain if it isn't the best possible care for your skin. What good is saving money on skin care if your skin is left wanting and, in fact, needing more?
Aside from the jar packaging and the paltry amount of important skin-care ingredients, there are other limitations, adding to this line's woes. If you have acne, skin discolorations, or uneven skin tone, you need to look elsewhere.
From a marketing point of view, Lumene capitalizes on the erroneous notion that age is a skin type, so they group their products according to decades. Complete nonsense! Age is not a skin type, nor is race, height, weight, or ethnic background. Regardless of your age, if you have acne, rosacea, dry skin, oily skin, sun damage, or blackheads, the same ingredients that work for someone in their 30s will work for someone in their 40s, 50s, or 60s. There isn't a single piece of research showing that any specific ingredients or formulations are better for skin depending on your age.
Like a vast number of cosmetics companies, Lumene leads you to believe their products are all natural and loaded with beneficial plant extracts, in this case, from the remote wilderness of Finland. Nothing could be further from the truth. These products are loaded with synthetic ingredients. That doesn't make them inherently bad, it just makes the marketing claims obnoxious and misleading.
For those intent on exploring what this Finnish line has to offer, despite the fact there isn't much here worth your attention, your best bet is to stick with the products for sensitive skin, which are truly fragrance-free, and the cleansers. Oh, and if you want to find out if the cult classic status of Lumene's Blueberry Curl mascara is deserved, look no further: It most certainly is!
One more comment: Many Lumene products contain an extract or oil from the Arctic cloudberry plant. Although there is research proving this plant has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, it is far from the only one, and isn't even close to being the best for skin. The fact that Lumene chooses to highlight this plant is about marketing nonsense, because stories sell better than reality. Whether it is from the Amazon, the Swiss Alps, or the Himalayas, geographic location is not what makes a plant extract of any kind superior for skin.

Caterpillar Birthday Party (30 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
I just love creating parties styled around children's books, so I was so excited when my client asked me to create a custom suite of party goods and style a party around a beloved children's book. The goal was simple: bright, primary colors, a focus on fruit and a modern interpretation of everyone's favorite caterpillar.
I started by designing the collection of paper goods, including an exclusive caterpillar illustration, and two patterns that appeared throughout the entire party: a colorful polka dot and a green and yellow chevron pattern.
The table setting held one of my favorite elements to the party…..a 3-D caterpillar centerpiece that I crafted from painted mini paper lanterns, and grass plants. A table runner made from our polka dot fabric, simple yellow plates, and striped silverware from Pottery Barn Kids added to the whimsical look.
Simple yellow plates held a charming apple cupcake, which was inspired by Amy Atlas's new book, Sweet Designs. Grass cupcake wrappers tied in our theme to the wheat grass centerpiece. Each child had a name plate hanging on the back of their colorful chair, each featuring a different fruit from the collection.
As always, the desserts stole the show! I used our chevron patterned fabric as a back drop, and a crisp white tablecloth on the table. Since I planned to use all white dishes, I placed a red table runner going across the table, in order to make the desserts "pop".
The two tiered fondant-covered cake from Two Sugar Babies held center stage and featured our colorful patterns and fruits from the book. A 3-D caterpillar, as well as a mini bunting, sat atop the cake.
A make-shift tiered tray (using a white plate and white berry baskets) held candy runts from Candywarehouse.com, cello bags with our custom fruit toppers held hard candy, and rice krispy treats covered with fondant from Two Sugar Babies. Check back this afternoon for Charynn's DIY tips on re-creating the rice krispy treats!
One of my favorite elements were cake pops in the shape of fruit from Sweet Lauren Cakes! We displayed them in pots of wheat grass which tied back to the caterpillar centerpiece on our table.
Green and white striped cups held candy runts and re-purposed cupcake toppers, red boxes were full of candy that the kids brought home as party favors. Rainbow lollipops and candy from Candywarehouse.com was used as an accessory throughout the entire table.

Did you know that on google earth, you can now see street views of stuff? it's pretty weird. You could find out someone's address, find their house, and act like you're watching them or something. I just think it's kinda creepy. and useful if someone rips you off on ebay.
But still, is it worth google's money to send people driving all over the country, taking pictures of every direction out of a vehicle just so people can see what people are doing sitting on their front porches on one random day of the year, or to see what kind of cars a random neighborhood has? I would hate that job.

Defending Champ Men's Squash Looks For Repeat At Potter Cup Championships
CHAMPIONSHIP BRACKETS l 2012: PRINCETON 5, TRINITY 4
It was only one year ago when Princeton made national headlines by ending Trinity's 13-year reign atop men's collegiate squash. The Tigers will look to match that effort this weekend when they head to Yale for the three-day CSA Potter Cup Championships.
Princeton will enter the tournament as the second seed (the same as it was last season), and it will open competition Friday at 11:30 am against seventh-seeded Franklin & Marshall. The winner will play in the Saturday semifinal against either third-ranked Harvard or sixth-ranked Rochester; that semifinal will be played Friday at 2:30 pm.
Princeton is 10-2 and won its 18th straight Ivy League championship after going 6-1 in league play. The Tigers shared the title with Harvard, though they earned the second seed thanks to their 5-4 victory over the Crimson in mid-January. The expected rematch would be for a spot in the 2013 national team final, which would be Sunday at 12:30. Trinity is the top seed and will likely see either fourth-seeded Yale or fifth-seeded Cornell in the other semifinal.
Princeton opened its season with a 9-0 victory over Franklin & Marshall, though the Diplomats have shown great improvement over the season and nearly upset fifth-ranked Cornell one day after the Big Red defeated Princeton. Cornell held on for a 5-4 victory, thanks in part to a 15-13 win in the fifth game at the No. 8 position and a 13-11 win in the fifth game at the No. 4 spot.
If Princeton moves past Friday, then it would see one of two teams it played prior to the finals break. Princeton defeated Harvard 5-4 on Jan. 13 in the Jadwin Courts in a match that featured the last two individual national champions. Reigning champion Ali Farag of Harvard topped Princeton senior Todd Harrity in four games, though Princeton won five of the remaining eight matches to take the win. The highlight victory came at the No. 2 spot, when sophomore Samuel Kang overcame late cramping and hit a diving winner on match ball to claim an 11-9 victory in the fifth game.
Of course, Rochester could become the second straight sixth seed to win its opening round match, matching Cornell's effort over Yale from last season. The Yellowjackets lost 5-4 to Harvard during the regular season, and they pushed Trinity in a 5-4 loss in late January. Princeton defeated Rochester 7-2 in a December match at Jadwin.
If Princeton returns to the national final, it would be its ninth national final in the last 12 years. Top-ranked Trinity scored a 6-3 win over Princeton last weekend, while the Tigers split their two road matches with Yale and Cornell. Princeton defeated Yale 6-3 at the Brady Squash Center, site of this weekend's championships, while Cornell scored a tight 5-4 home win over Princeton two weeks ago.
Princeton will be led by senior co-captains Harrity and Steve Harrington, as well as 2012 All-Americas Kang and Tyler Osborne. Junior Dylan Ward has been very strong at the No. 4 spot this season, including a match-clinching win against Harvard, and he ignited the comeback win over Trinity in the national final last season with a 3-1 win at the No. 7 spot.
Sophomores Taylor Tutrone and David Hoffman, as well as freshmen Vivek Dinodia and Michael LeBlanc, will all be making their Potter Cup debuts this weekend. Any of the four could have critical matches throughout the weekend, and each has at least one victory over a Top-6 opponent this season.

Rated "Best Overall" by The Wall Street Journal, this portable director's chair folds to about the size of a laptop and stores in an easy-to-carry messenger bag. Telescoping legs and a folding backrest enable the chair to fold to less than 4" thick in seconds. Easier to transport than the bulky sacks that accompany lesser models, the chair's messenger bag straps over a shoulder and across the chest for simple, hands-free portability to an outdoor concert or campsite. Despite weighing only 9 lbs., the chair supports up to 250 lbs., thanks to its rugged aluminum and steel frame and 600-denier nylon mesh seat. Unlike lesser portable chairs that sag as you sit, this superior unit's seat and backrest remain taut, providing support during prolonged periods of sitting. The armrests have an integrated cup holder and two pockets. Open: 34" H x 22" W x 17" D; Folded: 3 3/4" H x 20" W x 12" D. (9 lbs.)

I am 67 yrs old. Wanted good support but HS was out of the director chair I really wanted so bought this. Very heavy, altho I do like it fitting into a messenger type bag. Sitting in it was not comfortable for my back at all. I returned them and will wait to see if the other ones come out again w/back support in lumbar region.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It fits in a suitcase - love it!
By HavePassesNTravelByAir
You do have to be very careful to extend it all the way when you are using it or it might break. Not something you would lightly consider loaning out due to the set up issue but I found it easy with a little practice. Not for kids either as the cool mess seating could be damage if treated roughly. We love them for traveling by air to outdoor locations - they fit in a suitcase, or attending outdoor festivals where there might not be enough seating. It's a little heavy on your shoulder to carry far but well made.

Women's Basketball Takes Control of Ivy Standings, Defeats Cornell 77-46
In a battle for first place in the Ivy League, it was the Princeton women's basketball team that maneuvered past Cornell, 77-46, Friday evening in Ithaca, N.Y. The Tigers improve to 11-5, 2-0 Ivy, while extending their Ivy win streak to 26 and current win streak to five. The contest also marked their 10th double figure victory on the year.
Princeton opened the game with an 8-2 run, but Cornell managed to remain in range and come as close as three, 10-7 with 14:31 to play. With a one-possession game on their hands, the Tigers upended the Big Red run and set up a double figure differential of their own, 19-9 at 11:54.
Cornell seriously contested for the lead inside the 10-minute mark, riding a 9-0 run to make it a three-point game for the second time. Blake Dietrick ended the Big Red's scoring rally with four decisive points and a steal to Princeton up 25-18 at 7:56.
Dietrick finished with 17 points for a career-high. She came in off the bench and was 7-for-8 from the field, including draining a pair of three-pointers, and tallied five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 22 minutes of work.
By halftime the Tigers found their flow on the floor and held a 38-22 advantage.
Much of their first half success was credited to feeding the ball to Megan Bowen in the post. The senior center had 10 of her 12 points over the first 20 minutes of play.
Classmate Niveen Rasheed scored in double figures for the 14th consecutive game, finishing with a game-high 21 points. She shot 75 percent (9-for-12) from the field and grabbed five boards.
On an evening where the seniors showcased their veteran leadership, Kate Miller established a new career-high in assists with five and point guard Lauren Polansky returned to action with a team-high eight boards.
At the other end of the spectrum, all five freshmen saw minutes and combined for 17 of the bench's 40 points.
While individual achievement highlighted the evening, as a whole Princeton shot a season-best 58.6 percent (34-for-58) from the field and held a 42-26 rebounding differential.
The Tigers head next to Columbia (2-15, 0-3 Ivy) for a Saturday, Feb. 2 meeting at 7 p.m. in New York City.

Baseball Drops 7-1 Decision at Duke; To Play Maine Thursday
After three scoreless innings, Duke responded with back-to-back multi-run frames and carried its momentum to a 7-1 victory over the Princeton baseball team Wednesday evening in Durham, N.C.
The Tigers fall to 3-8 on the year, but will have the chance to rebound immediately with a game versus Maine at 11 a.m. at Navy in Annapolis, Md.
Sophomore Danny Hoy led the Tigers going 4-for-4 and accounted for their lone run in the ninth.
Duke held a 9-6 hit advantage, while two Princeton errors were factors in the Blue Devils' scoring.
Princeton out hit Duke 3-1 before the Blue Devils broke away with three runs in the fourth and four more in the fifth.
The Tigers were limited to three hits over the final four innings and broke up the shutout in the ninth. Hoy led off with a triple and was sent home on a Paul Tupper ground out. Princeton would put on two more base runners, but was unable to extend the inning.
Reliever Jonathan York tossed 2.0 innings, striking out a pair and only giving up a hit and Chris Bodurian pitched a hitless ninth inning.

Lemon Pie in Meringue Shell RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 6 3
A delicious and different dessert, this lemon pie is a part of all our family's special occasions. Typically, I prepare it the day before and refrigerate overnight. Still, its sunny yellow filling and creamy topping make me want to dive right in.
- 3 egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1-1/2 cups sugar, divided
- 4 egg yolks
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped
- Place egg whites in a small bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Add cream of tartar; beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Spread onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
- In a large saucepan, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice and peel, salt and remaining sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture reaches 160° or is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Cool to room temperature without stirring.
- Fold half of the whipped cream into lemon filling; spread into meringue shell. Top with remaining whipped cream. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 6-8 servings.

Stanly County switches stance on relicensing
Published: Wednesday, May 8, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 7, 2013 at 2:22 p.m.
Could an end be in sight for Alcoa's efforts to secure another 50-year operating license for the Alcoa Project, which includes High Rock and Badin lakes? If past history has shown anything, it indicates that just when it seems a resolution might be near, something throws a monkey wrench into the plans. But five years have now passed since the previous license expired. A resolution to the relicensing effort would end the uncertainty about whether Alcoa will continue to operate the four dams on the Yadkin River.
Alcoa reached a settlement Monday night with one of its primary foes, Stanly County. In a 3-2 split vote that represents the divided feeling about the relicensing, the commissioners voted in favor of an agreement that resolves all issues between the county and company. Stanly County agreed to support Alcoa's application for a 401 Water Quality Certificate from the state along with its relicensing application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Alcoa will pay the county $3 million now, $1 million of which will go to economic development, and $100,000 yearly for each year the license exceeds 40 years.
Critics will argue Alcoa bought a resolution with the county. Supporters will say the deal offers a win-win scenario for the company and county. FERC won't issue the license until the state issues the 401 Water Quality Certificate. Alcoa is now on round two in its efforts to obtain the certificate after withdrawing its first certificate when faulty data was discovered — which resulted in a lawsuit by Stanly County and the Yadkin Riverkeeper. So Stanly County's support could weigh heavily on state officials processing the application.
Feelings about Alcoa remain mixed in Davidson County as well and even shifts. The Davidson County Board of Commissioners voted 5-2 to support the Relicensing Settlement Agreement with Alcoa in January, switching positions from a 4-3 vote in 2007 when they opted not to sign the agreement. The High Rock Lake Association also supports the agreement. On the other side, many members of the Uwharrie Regional Resources Commission, which includes two former Davidson County commissioners, Max Walser, who chairs the commission, and Cathy Dunn, are no fans of Alcoa, although the commission has never taken a formal vote in opposition to the company. The most vocal critic has been Dean Naujoks, the Yadkin Riverkeeper.
Further muddying the waters is a last-minute request by New Energy Capital Partners, a New Hampshire investment firm, to obtain the license for the project. Alcoa argues the firm's efforts are too late.
The state is expected to rule on the 401 Water Quality Certificate by September. FERC could then act within three months. The process needs to take as long as necessary to meet the legal obligations. But that outcome could finally be closer to fruition, especially after Monday's vote in Stanly County.

Looks like a lot of storm chasers setting up shop in eastern NE and Western IA. What should we be looking for this afternoon? Looks like sun coming out which IIRC is not good (or good, depending on your POV) for severe weather.
Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.
In the last 20 or 30 minutes in Ankeny, rain has stopped, temp jumped about 10 degrees, sun came out, and humidity has increased.
Temps aren't high enough in central Iowa to light the fuse
ABC - Always Be Closing
Looks like some dicey stuff in Southern IA right now
If you are within an hour or so of I-35 you should keep an eye on the weather today. Especially after 3PM or so.

Wait until the clouds break. Forecasted highs around 80 today.
Red dots are storm chasers... RT @EverythingWX: Just a few chasers playing the warm front up north. Wow.
that is a really neat picture.

Pretty nasty storms S-SW of the Omaha metro. Looks like it might miss the city to the NW, but too early to tell
I guess the forecast included brunch?
Radar is showing what appears to be a strong hook about 15 miles west of Lincoln. Take cover Huskers
I'll be very disappointed if we don't get some good storms in central IA tonight
I've already spent about 45 mins in my basement storage room. Then watched a second storm with nasty hail form just SW of my house. It's now clear and really heating up which does not bode well for later today.

Bee Blocking It
I made this Crown of Thorns block in June for Tiffany in the Stash Trad bee. She asked us to create an "explosion of color" in the outer HSTs, with the color from the inner ring carrying over into the fabric used in the outer HSTs. You can find the block pattern here, and go here to see the finished quilt top that Tiffany made with these blocks! It's so beautiful and colorful!
Next up, I made two paper-pieced yellow and gray paper-pieced stars for Kati, who had July in both of my bees.
So here's my Stash Trad block for Kati, using my own fabric. The pattern is from the book 50 Fabulous Paper-Pieced Stars by Carol Doak. This is probably my all-time favorite paper-piecing book—all the stars in the book are done in very traditional fabrics, but if you can look past that, the patterns are, well, fabulous! This is the Pennsylvania star.
And here's my {Sew} Beautiful bee block for Kati, made with fabric she provided. This is also from 50 Fabulous Paper-Pieced Stars. It's the New York star.
And finally, here's a bright, fun Swoon block that I made for Erin in the Milwaukee Modern Quilt Guild bee. Would you believe this is my first Swoon block? I love it in these super-bright colors!

I absolutely love your paper pieced blocks - both the designs and the fabrics you've used. I just have a bit of a touchy question. You know those little bits that don't quite line up?? I know that paper piecing is supposed to be the answer for accuracy, but I always find that when I go to piece the sections - I get those same freaking little bits that don't quite match up. I'm just curious about whether it annoys you, to have gone to all that effort and still end up with little annoying bits. (and I hope you don't mind the question - I promise - I didn't really notice them all that much).

Replenishing Our Feminine EnergiesPosted on March 17th, 2011 | Filed Under Featured, Life Balance, Personal Growth, Self Care
"Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away."
Barbara De Angelis
As women, we wear many hats. Play many roles. Woman ~ Wife ~ Mother ~ Daughter ~ Sister ~ Aunt ~ Friend. And in each of those roles, we give of ourselves. We give love, support, compassion, empathy, passion, encouragement, sympathy… it is in our nature to give. There is an exquisite and innate beauty in this giving of self, but within also lies great risk. The risk comes when we do not know our boundaries, honor limits, or neglect to refill our vessels that can flow so generously.
The quote above from Barbara De Angelis captures perfectly what I have known for myself to be true. I deeply need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to replenish. As elemental as food and water for my wellbeing, I must have this time for self in order to maintain my ability to be in this world. I have learned to honor this in myself.
There was a time, however that I compared myself to others who seemed to have this limitless energy – this ability to go on and on in thier giving, their living, thier doing. And I thought myself inferior – unable to compete. While I beleive the quote states the truth for all women, there is an ebb and flow to it – as our energies move in and out like the waves of the ocean. During one stage or moon of our life, we may feel our tides are full and immense. While during another moon, we may feel our energies retreating, even shallow. So, I have let go of comparing….and honor that each of us have the ability, and the responsibility, to check in with ourselves and discern when it is time to go inward.
This time of going inward, the Yin time – gives our mind, body and spirit the opportunity to connect, tune in and be. This is where we connect with our inner wisdom, our intuition. It is where our dreams blossom. Where our authentic self resides. This is where our power originates. In this quiet, reflective place we remember who we are.
This shift towards self can be uncomfortable for some, intimidating for others; and to some even frightening to be left alone with thier thoughts spinning. And to some, it will bring thoughts of selfishness to mind. Afterall, as women we are taught to put ourselves last.
"Self care is not self-indulgence – it is self-preservations" Renee Trudeau
Self care is essential. It is the core nourishent of our mind, body and spirit that must some first in order to allow and empower all we wish accomplish. Self care is the foundation of how I begin the coaching process with my clients. It is the sturdy rock from which they can joyfully and confidently dive into the ocean of thier dreams.

The people in this book have had their difficulties—especially in the area of relationships. For some of these individuals, this arena has been more difficult than employment. One of the reasons why they sought out a diagnosis was their difficulty with relationships. For most individuals on the spectrum, the road to successful employment started with teenage jobs, such as paper routes. Having a paper route taught the basic work skills of being on time and having to do it every day. Today, the paper routes are mostly gone, but a good modern substitute for a young Aspie is dog walking. Like a paper route, it has to be done every day. Other good jobs for teenagers on the spectrum would be fixing computers, making PowerPoint presentations, maintaining and updating Web sites, working in a farmer's market, writing for the church or community newsletter, selling art, or helping an elderly neighbor.
When I was a teenager, I did hand-sewing for a seamstress, cleaned horse stalls, built carpentry projects, and painted signs. The crucial skill that has to be learned is how to do work that is assigned by other people. In my design work, I often had to modify my designs to either fit the building site or satisfy some whim of the client. There are some people on the spectrum who can get hired easily by showing a portfolio of artwork or programming code. However, they cannot keep a job because they do not get assigned work done. They are either rigid and inflexible in modifying a project to satisfy the boss, or they refuse to do work that is outside their area of interest. When kids do jobs in middle and high school, it teaches them valuable work skills, such as flexibility and doing assigned tasks. If a teenager is creating a Web page for a real-estate office, he will learn that he cannot decorate it with science-fiction characters. When I made signs as a teenager, I did not paint horses on a sign for a beauty shop. I had to learn how to do work that other people wanted.
Recently, I had a lady walk up to me in the airport and say, "Your book,Thinking in Pictures, saved my marriage. Now I understand my engineer husband, and we are able to work things out."
Each contributor in this book has a unique story, and my intent is that their stories will provide hope and insight to individuals on the spectrum, as well as parents, teachers, and professionals.
People on the autism spectrum always keep learning. It is never too late to learn new skills, improve relationships, or learn better work skills. To grow, a person on the spectrum has to "stretch." Stretching is a good analogy, because sudden surprises cause fear. Even individuals my age can learn new skills. When I was writing this introduction, I talked to a family member of a woman in her 60s who has autism. Within the past year, she discovered that the way she dressed herself improved her life, and now she enjoys nicer clothes. The mind of the person with autism can always keep learning. It is never too late to change. A person on the spectrum needs an employer, spouse, or friend who will calmly coach him when he makes social mistakes. He has to be instructed on how to behave, like a character in a play. In my own life, I have gained great insight from reading the writings of other individuals on the spectrum.
- Dr Temple Grandin

I was giving this some thought again today, and I have to admit that a real and true partnership might not be a bad idea. Though I would still prefer he pay for it himself. Or at least pay back the loans he has.
If there were some agreement, there has to be some give (and less take) from the Dolphins. How about a bond that will be repaid by the Dolphins? And in exchange, some portion of the stadium would be turned over to the public as a kind of collateral. There has to be something in return for being loaned money - or perhaps a something in return for being given money.
And because its reasonable, it will never happen.
The nonsense proposed this round is just that. Don't be surprised to see another hand in your wallet soon...
And another thing got me to thinking: H Wayne may have turned out to be a so-so owner...but he was a good citizen in south Florida. I heard Channing Crowder talking about this today. H Wayne brought in baseball, and lived here, and wanted the best for the team. And, more importantly he has been philanthropic throughout our area. He has done some good.
Compare that with Stephen Ross. He is "from Miami" but moved away when he went to college, and basically never returned, other than to do business. He doesn't live here (he's a resident of NY), and he tried to buy a couple of other teams before getting the Dolphins. Maybe he has a link to Miami, but I believe its about owning A team, rather than THIS team.
And if you check his philanthropy, sure he PLANS to give a sizable fortune to charity. And that's nice. But he isn't living that promise now. And looking into his philanthropy, he has given heavily to his alma mater (Michigan), and to various entities in and around New York. But has done nothing here.
And here's where this intersects: he wants to enrich himself, and expects tax payers to fund enhancements in the stadium. And he's essentially giving nothing in return. And in fact, he's not giving anything back to the community at all. So why should anyone support him?
How about showing some goodwill first? How about showing that maybe you care in some way about the community that you don't live in?

We are a licensed, bonded, and insured local installer of all forms of distributed solar energy systems. We install solar electric (PV), solar water heating and solar pool heating for residential and commercial applications. With over thirty years of experience in the industry, no one has been doing it longer than us in the mid-Atlantic.
We're Local
Because we are a local business we care about the community we serve. We are a locally owned and operated company in Anne Arundel County. Our valued employees live in most of the same communities as our customers. We have experience working with families, organizations, and business owners all across Maryland and Washington D.C. SES is thoroughly committed to the work ethic, trust and integrity that maintain our good reputation.
Our Commitment
We know the industry inside and out. Our commitment goes beyond the knowledge of current government incentives and trends. We are experts in both the latest developments in solar system technology, as well as the tried-and-true mature technologies of passive solar and solar water heating. Through this experience and knowledge we are able to offer the most economical solutions to our customers and maximize return on investment.
What we do
We design and install all forms of distributed solar: solar electric, solar water heating and solar pool heating. That's right, the Sun heating water. A lot of people know about solar electric systems--the solar panels on rooftops that provide electricity to homes and businesses across the country, but not as many are familiar with solar hot water systems. We are experts with both Solar Hot Water systems and Solar Electric systems. It is usually a combination of these two technologies that maximizes the value of a residential solar investment. SES also services our systems when needed. Although service requirements are minimal, we have an experienced service department that has encountered just about every problem your solar system could possibly have. So, if a problem were to arise, our crew can diagnose and correct the issue quickly and efficiently.

ZF-5667: ZendX_JQuery Produces Script Output When Not Used
When setting your own paths for local jQuery they render whether you are using a jQuery feature or not. Where as when using CDN they don't.
$this->jQuery()->setLocalPath('path') $this->jQuery()->setUiLocalPath('path')
It's 'excessive' loading to load the files even when not needed. I've also noticed that disable() and uidisable() don't seem to have any effect when you set a local path.
Update - To be clearer I don't think the enable methods ($this->enable(); and $this->uiEnable()) should be called by the setLocalPath() and setUiLocalPath() as you (or I do!) want to set these in your bootstrap and not every time you call the helper. There fore if you sett hem it automatically enables jQuery, which is not the same thing!
i have talked to matthew, the dojo helper does it the same way. We are discussing to change this for 1.8 though, because you are right the behaviour is not really required this way.
Fixed in trunk, will be included in 1.8 release, because the fix introduces slight BC.
