While buying larger specimens provides instant gratification, there's something even more special about young plants,barely out of seedlinghood. I think of them as the botanical equivalent of babies and toddlers—so full of life and promise, virtually all their life still ahead of them.

Kellie Pickler Shaves Head to Support Friend Battling Breast Cancer
Kellie Pickler is showing what real friendship means.
In a demonstration of solidarity with a pal battling breast cancer, the former "American Idol" contestant shaved her head on Tuesday, calling it "a great life-changing" experience.
Pickler's transformation, which was showcased on Wednesday's "Good Morning America," came after her 36-year-old best friend, Summer Holt Miller, was diagnosed with the disease in June.
Miller, who will start chemotherapy on Thursday, also shed her locks in anticipation of the follicle-killing treatment.
"If this compels even one person to change their mentality toward waiting until the age of 40 for their mammogram, then it will be worth it," says Miller.
Pickler adds, "Cancer does not discriminate."

Domotex proves resilient despite tough times

Domotex proves resilient despite tough times
[Hannover, Germany] Domotex 2009, the world's largest international flooring tradeshow, posted a record number of exhibitors going into what may be one of the toughest years the flooring industry has seen. Despite conflicts on opening day with two other German tradeshows - in Munich and Frankfurt - the event attracted a healthy crowd of 38,000 visitors.
The show's 1,394 exhibitors came from 71 different countries. Such strong participation was a good sign, according to Dr. Stephan Kuhne, member of the Deutsche Messe managing board in charge of Domotex. In terms of visitors, the 38,000 attendance figure was down from the previous year's record 47,000 as well as from 2007's 43,538, the truly comparable year, according to Deutsche Messe's end-of-show report.
Kuhne said given the economic climate, it's more important than ever to nurture the flooring industry. "We want to be the lighthouse in the fog," he said. "It will be a tough year for every segment. But things will turn. The question is when and where?"
Traffic was good in terms of quality and quantity, most exhibitors reported. Rich Burkemper, vice president, Mohawk International business, told
on opening day that he was pleased with the quality but wanted to see more people. On the following day, Burkemper confirmed that the traffic count had indeed increased. "Purchasing is down but the attitude of the people is good. They are being a little cautious, waiting to see what the next couple of months will bring. If things stay good, they'll place the orders in a month or two."
"The market has had less traffic, but the quality has been good," said L.A. Train, CEO, Texas-based Swiff-Train. "It only takes one customer to make a market, depending on the size of the order." Train confirmed that customers brought fewer people to the show. "Customers with a team came with one or two people," he said. Train added that he does observe fewer Americans coming to buy at Domotex.
This year, fewer Asian customers made the trip, due to the proximity of the Chinese New Year. Fred Almy, CEO, Summit International, was still pleased with the quality and traffic. "The ones who come here are serious businesspeople," he said.
"We came not knowing what to expect," said Stephaan Debusschere, senior sales director for IVC. Debusschere said there's no question that 2008 was a difficult year, though the company came close to double-digit growth. Still, the fourth quarter was tough worldwide. "Russia and the Ukraine are under pressure. The U.S. and U.K. are tough."
Balta executives also came to the show not knowing what to expect, said Geert Vanden Bossche, director of marketing. "You have to compare to 2007 because of Heimtextil and Bau," he explained, the two other shows preceding Domotex. "But it's been very busy. We can't complain. And the optimism is surprising. That's a good thing."
The U.S. is acknowledged as the trouble spot with both an economic crisis driven by the depressed housing market and a financial one fueled by the credit crisis. Worldwide, the U.K. is in a similar situation. Other areas of Europe are not doing as badly.
Spain is suffering because of a housing slowdown as well, said Fin Floor Faus' Juan Lledro. Spain has been averaging about 800,000 new homes per year for the past five years. "This year they will build 150,000 to 200,000 homes. Still, the flooring industry is off only 10 percent to 15 percent, not as bad as other industries," he said.
"Spain and the U.K. are like America or worse," said Paul de Cock, president, Unilin Flooring. "The rest of Europe has seen a slowdown but not to the same extent. Russia and the connected countries have had devaluation of currency that has impacted business. There's also the added affect of currency issues in the U.K.," he explained.
Worldwide, consumers are reacting to negative news media, said Jann Delmeire, sales and marketing director for Beaulieu International Group. "The media is playing a role in things; spreading negative news is affecting consumer thinking. That being said, after every crisis there is a revival. We are looking to benefit from that."
Meanwhile, sluggish sales and escalating raw materials prices in 2008 drove all manufacturers toward lower profits. "Raw materials hit historic highs," explained Marcus , former CEO, Balta. "We did not manage to pass all of those along. The industry had large declines in margins." Meanwhile, other costs have also increased. "We won't return to the levels we need until the economy gets better."
The mood among suppliers in tough times is that those that invest in innovation, product and marketing are going to reap the benefits when things turn. Balta is one of those companies. "We've stepped up our product development," Balta's Vanden Bossche said. "Sixty percent of what we are showing is new. We want to take market share."

A Troy football player was found dead laying on a Mississippi highway on Thursday. This mysterious death is under investigation as 20-year-old Jadarius Garner's lifeless body was discovered on U.S. Highway 61 after two cars had run him over, according to Fox News Sports on Jan. 3.
Police were called to the Bolivar County highway with reports of a two car accident. This is when they found Garner's body, about three miles south of Oreilly, Mississippi. Why was this defense end for the Troy football team dead in the middle of the highway at 2:30 in the morning?
Troy football coach Larry Blakeney said in a statement:
"This is a terrible tragedy and our thoughts and prayers go out to Jadarius's family in this time of grief."
Garner played defensive end for the Trojans and he had just finished his second season with the team after transferring from Mississippi's Jones County Community College. He was named the Sun Belt Conference defensive player. Garner's death is under investigation today.

- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 cups quick-cooking oats
- 1 cup M&M's
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup salted peanuts
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- In a large bowl, cream peanut butter, butter and sugars. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add baking soda and vanilla. Add oats, M&M's, butterscotch chips and peanuts; let stand for 10 minutes. Stir in flour (the dough will be crumbly).
- Shape 1/4 cupfuls into balls. Place on greased baking sheets, about nine cookies on each sheet. Gently flatten cookies. Bake at 325° for 15-18 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks. Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen.
Reviews for Monster Cookies
"These cookies were horrible. I could not find my Monster cookies recipe and I knew a Taste of Home recipe would be good. The cookies were so dry and crumbly before and after baking. This was an expensive waste of ingredients. I'm still trying to figure out how to salvage the rest of the dough."
"These are a hit, and I've made them a few times. One note: don't use crunch peanut butter. I did that recently but it seemed to make the cookies "dry.""
"These were a big hit at my baby's dedication gathering! I've renamed "Many Blessings" cookies cause they are packed with lots of good things! Only alternation to the recipe I made was I did not add the peanuts cause I don't like nuts in stuff. So, instead of peanuts, I put in 1 cup of white choc chips. :o) They were a hit!"
"NO flavor...they were soooo bland. I followed the recipe exactly. Put them in airtight container overnight, next day they were as hard as a rock. SOOO disappointing!"
"These are good, very peanut & peanut buttery. They aren't super sweet as far as cookies go. We made them 1/2 as big as the recipe says since our kids are smaller. Easier to handle if you put a few drops of water on your palms every 5 cookies or so."

CES 2013 - If I survived a plane crash, the last thing I'd be worrying about is the data on my iPad, but hey - some people carry around some seriously sensitive, or precious data on their smart devices these days.
At CES 2013, we talked to Ontrack Data Recovery who told us they were able to recover data from a customers iPad that was heavily damaged in a plane crash. What Ontrack Data Recovery do is take apart the device, in this case an iPad, and take the physical memory chips off. After this step, they image the chip raw, and then piece the data back together in the same pattern that is normally done by the controller chip.

"It is easy to judge those who are unlike ourselves. We make them convenient targets for our own frustrations and guilt. Help us, O God, to judge ourselves aright and to show mercy to others, as we in turn look to you for mercy and forgiveness."
This was the Prayer of Confession recited at my church the day after I saw the Warehouse Theatre's production of Merchant of Venice. And it immediately struck me as a perfect follow up to Jayce Tromsness' staging of Shakespeare's tragic comedy.
The play follows a Venetian merchant, Antonio (Matt Reece), who becomes indebted to a Jewish moneylender, Shylock (Paul Savas). After enduring years of abuse by Christians, including Antonio, Shylock strikes a different kind of bargain – instead of charging interest on this particular loan, Shylock will accept one of two outcomes: either straight repayment in full, or a pound of Antonio's flesh. Meanwhile, in what sometimes seems like an entirely different universe, we're also given a crazy comedy of love, cross-dressing, and riddles.
Amazingly, the two worlds coexist well on stage (I hear this Shakespeare fellow is really going places). Director Jayce Tromsness places the action across a wonderful, layered set (by Shannon Robert) and packs the theatre with fantastic actors. Tromsness has long had a gift for bringing Shakespeare to life, for wringing natural line readings from the poetry, and he works that magic again here. He's also adept at creating vividly "theatrical" moments, and we get a lot of that, too, from the brief appearances of puppets (picking up on the words of a famous 19th century commentator that the characters in the play are puppets clothed with human flesh?) to the bright, startling, late-in-the-play appearance of a character wearing red amidst the otherwise earth-tone-drenched proceedings (an allusion to the girl in the red dress in Spielberg's Schindler's List?).
Apart from the many visually distinctive moments, Tromsness also gives us a host of wonderful performances. Paul Savas presents a layered and sympathetic Shylock, and his final line, his final moment on stage will haunt you. Meagan McNerney Azar and Anne Tromsness are terrific as Portia and her friend, Nerissa, both of them alluring, engaging, and gifted at bringing out the comedy in their characters. Maxim Williams makes a strong impression in a small role as the boastful Prince of Morocco, and Rick Conner is simply hilarious in a tiny role as the Prince of Arragon. I guarantee you will laugh at his entrance alone.
Matt Reece, Andy Croston, Michael Hart, William Pope, Christopher Joel Ontken – the list goes on and on. The entire cast deserves mention, all of them providing moments that stick out in my mind – right down to the impressively assured eighth grader Stevie Keese as one of Portia's attendants. What a treat to watch such a gifted cast.
All of it serves a play that, as director Tromsness points out in his program note, is troubling. What are we to make of these characters, of their treatment of Shylock? Is it he a "devilish Jew" getting his just deserts, or is it an indictment of the inhuman way we can treat our fellow humans? How do we, as a society, view Muslims these days? How do we treat the illegal aliens in our midst? How do we justify the torture of "enemy combatants"? These are heavy questions, and one's we should seriously ponder. And it's a credit to this production that the comedy never gets in the way of these deeper issues.
The Merchant of Venice runs through March 31 at the Warehouse Theatre in Greenville's historic West End. For tickets, contact the box office at 864-235-6948 or visit warehousetheatre.com.
A few hours after posting this I had the horrible realization that I'd forgotten to say anything about the music. Yes, the music. This production featured an original score by Braxton Belew and Sarah Black, who record and perform as Valentine Wolfe. It's such a rarity these days, especially in regional theatre, for a show to carry an original score, and the work of Belew and Black here does quite a lot toward setting the mood of the whole production.
There are some vocals, a lot of bass, and a lot of atmosphere. I'm pretty sure I recognized an old Peter Warlock tune, but otherwise the music was original, textured and a nice enhancement to the evening. CD's of the music are available for sale in the lobby before and after the show. While I failed to pick one up, I'm seriously considering heading back down to the Warehouse this weekend simply to buy myself a copy.

IOMA, a skin-care line from France, gets in your face—to help your face. Step up to its counter at Saks Fifth Avenue (611 Fifth Ave., 212.940.2316) and rest your chin inside its diagnostic sphere. The snowy-white, astronaut helmet-like device quickly snaps five facial photos, using microchip-embedded sensors to pinpoint problem areas, such as wrinkles, UV damage, sagging and clogged pores. Using this subdermal diagnosis, an aesthetician mixes and matches items from the line's 25 facial products, creating what IOMA Business Manager Francisco Diaz calls "a handcrafted cocktail" just for your visage.
Now, I usually don't like having my picture taken. After a spin in the IOMA Sphere 2, I liked it even less—especially when presented with a quintet of shots that bore a striking resemblance to death masks. Actually, Mr. Diaz said, my skin was in pretty good shape; the main areas that needed improvement were around my eyes (on IOMA's diagnostic scale of 1 to 15, with 1 being perfect, my "bags and eyelids" scored 9, rapidly approaching the Caution zone). Happily, IOMA had just the thing: its recently-released Flash Youth Eye Contour Concentrate, which attacks everything that can go wrong with the orbs, from dark circles to wrinkles to puffiness. I also got a preview sample of another product, coming this September: Ma Crème, a day or night cream augmented with varying combinations of eight different serums, based on the Sphere's analysis of the client's complexion; the bespoke solution is whipped up while you while you wait, like a specially-ordered dessert.
I've used these two items—the all-in-one wonder for eyes and the customized Crème—faithfully for a few weeks now, and indeed, my eyes are looking brighter (they don't call it Flash Youth Eye Contour Concentrate for nothing), my forehead smoother. Can't wait to return to the Sphere, as recommended, for a follow-up evaluation. Even so, the pics won't be appearing on my Facebook page anytime soon. Just my shining face.

My doctor said Clomid does, and like the other poster said, IVF. But, I don't think that you can make it happen without some sort of invervention from a doctor or God! Haha. :)
I'll definitely keep my fingers crossed for TWO sticky beans.
I'm starting Clomid this month and crossing my fingers for twins, as well!
Keep us posted! Talk to your doctor if you really want twins! They can help your chances go up. The chances of twins with clomid is 1/10 or 10%, so not that high. IVF is much higher, I believe. Good luck!
A dr won't help you increase your chances for multiples-it would be a byproduct of needing fertility treatment.
^what Rosey said.

Dr's don't want you to increase your chances of a mulitple pregnancy. It's very risky, which is why you are labeled as high risk. When doing IVF a lot do not like to transfer more than two eggs but do so a chance of one sticking does but even then families tend to be counciled on selecting... And clomid is not even that big of a % increase chance, more than without it but still most people have a singletin.

There is no natural supplement that increases your chances of multiples. There is a drug called Clomid that stimulates ovulation. This in turn increases chances of multiples due to more matured eggs being possibly released but, it is not guaranteed. I used clomid to conceive my last pregnancy and conceived only a singleton.

The standard open surgical approaches to the thoracic spine usually involve creating a large opening in the chest wall. Video assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), is a minimally invasive (keyhole) surgical procedure. It allows the surgeon to directly examine the chest cavity without a big incision. Three or four small incisions will be made to allow the surgeon to use the special instruments (video camera and endoscope) needed for this operation. A very small video camera is used to project pictures of the chest cavity onto a screen during the procedure.
VATS avoids the extensive damage to the chest wall. Specific tools and implant systems permit the spine surgeon to remove thoracic discs. This procedure is also used to biopsy vertebral masses/tumors, release scoliosis curves, and graft bone disc spaces.
When surgeons at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center developed the VATS lobectomy procedure in 1992, the hope was that minimally invasive surgery, when compared to invasive traditional surgery, offered patients a shorter hospital stay, less risk, and quicker recovery, without compromising the completeness of the cancer operation.
In 2006, a review of 1100 consecutive patients who underwent a standard VATS lobectomy (removal of a lobe of the lung) with lymph node dissection for lung cancer was published. The research showed that VATS lobectomy for bronchogenic carcinoma appears to be safe and provides the same survival rates as expected for lobectomy done by the traditional invasive thoracotomy incision (opening up the chest) that most other surgeons use for surgery. The population studied included 595 (54.1%) women and 505 men (45.9%), with mean age of 71.2 years (range 39-85 years).
The VATS operations were the standard cancer operations that are usually performed by thoracotomy (a large, invasive incision). This was not a compromise operation for patients with poor performance status. The procedure was performed through a <2 inch incision without spreading the ribs and 2 or 3 other small incisions.
There were 9 deaths (0.8%)- none were intra-operative or due to bleeding. 932 patients had no postoperative complications (84.7%). Blood transfusion was required in 45 of the 1100 patients (4.1%). Length of hospital stay was median of 3 days, mean of 4.78 days. One hundred and eighty (180) patients were discharged on post-operative day (POD) 1 or 2 (20%). Conversion to a thoracotomy occurred in 28 patients (2.5%). In 2005, 94% of 224 lobectomies were performed with VATS.
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is the leader in minimally invasive surgery of the lung. The series of 1100 VATS lobectomies is the largest series in the world. In the United States, few centers even perform the procedure. About five percent of the lobectomies in the United States are performed by VATS. In contrast, 94 percent of lobectomies at Cedars-Sinai were performed by VATS in 1995. Frequently, thoracic surgeons from around the country and around the world visit Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to learn how to perform VATS lobectomy.
Why don't more centers perform VATS lobectomy?
The operative skills are not taught in training programs because few surgeons performs the procedure. Not all surgeons have the video skills to perform the procedure. There is a significant learning curve to become comfortable with advanced minimally invasive operations, such as VATS lobectomy.
What about robotic surgery?
Robotic surgery is performed at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and it has been shown to be beneficial for certain procedures, such as heart surgery and prostate surgery. The current technology for robotic surgery is cumbersome and not beneficial for lung surgery.
Lobectomy via VATS is controversial because: (1) the adequacy of the cancer operation via VATS has been questioned; (2) no study to date has conclusively demonstrated a benefit from the procedure compared to lobectomy via thoracotomy; and (3) tumor seeding of VATS incisions (spreading of cancer cells on the skin) has been reported. Our series shows that these concerns are not warranted.
Multiple papers in the medical literature now show that minimally invasive surgery has advantages over traditional invasive approaches. Giudicelli analyzed the postoperative courses in 67 patients following a lobectomy by VATS (44 patients) or by muscle-sparing thoracotomies (23 patients). The postoperative pain was significantly less (<0.02) after a VATS procedure. The pain-related morbidity, the mean duration of air leaks, the chest tube duration and the hospital stay were all less after the VATS procedure, compared to the open procedure (thoracotomy). The overall patient deaths and the pulmonary impairment were the same for both procedures.
Thomas J. Kirby reported on 55 lobectomies, 30 of which were done by thoracotomy and 25 of which were by VATS. The length of hospital stay (8.3 versus 7.1 days) and the time the chest tubes stayed in the patients (6.5 versus 4.5 days) favored the VATS approach, but also did not reach statistical significance. Most operative complications occurred in the thoracotomy group compared to the VATS group (p<0.05). Kirby cautioned, "In the final analysis, the potential short-term benefits or the surgeon's ability to perform a VATS procedure is of little value to the patients if the goal of long-term cure is compromised."
In a randomized trial from Germany, there were fewer complications after the VATS approach (14.2% versus 50%). Cost, as measured by anesthesia charges, lab charges and hospital charges, were less with the VATS approach. In a non-randomized comparison of VATS and thoracotomy for lobectomy, Sugiura found no difference in the morbisity and mortality.
In 2004-5, the average hospital stay for VATS lobectomy was less than 3 days. No series of lobectomy by thoracotomy to date has demonstrated a length of stay.
The demographics in this series reflect the current trends in lung cancer. Adenocarcinoma is the most common type of lung cancer. This series included more women than men, which is consistent with the sex ratio of patients undergoing lobectomy by thoracotomy in our practice. This reflects the increasing incidence of lung cancer in women.
A cautious approach to lobectomy by VATS is recommended. VATS lobectomy is not appropriate for all lobectomies or all surgeons. It requires excellent video skills and knowledge of thoracic anatomy. The procedure should be performed only in appropriately selected patients by surgeons with the VATS skills that allow them to perform a complete cancer operation, not a compromise operation, with minimal morbidity and mortality. Care should be taken to reduce the risk of local recurrence by placing the specimen in a bag. Because there is a risk of bleeding, the surgeon must be prepared for the possibility that a thoracotomy might have to be performed.
In conclusion, this multi-institutional series demonstrates that VATS lobectomy for lung cancer can be performed safely with minimal morbidity, survival comparable to that of lobectomy by thoracotomy and, perhaps, a shorter length of stay in the hospital than when a patient undergoes a thoracotomy. VATS lobectomy is a reasonable treatment option for selected patients with Stage I lung cancer when surgeons with the skills to perform a complete cancer operation using VATS perform it.

It's not everyday a person gets to live their Dream. For rapper C.KHiD, it's a familiar reality. The viral rap star who's top 5 rap videos on YouTube have between 1 and 3 million views, has been hounding his with great success. Visiting the 'Sin City' since 2006, his big wins aren't coming from casinos. Instead, it's been from moving in permanently. Utilizing the city's greatest resources, bright lights and beautiful natural scenery and architecture. Those brilliant ideas led him to his own TV show with YouTube, The School Rap.
"Vegas gave 'that' rich look to my videos. It made people worldwide see I'm working in places just like major label signed artists, independently. That translated into viral success and YouTube opening the doors for me to their studio space in Los Angeles," says C.KHiD of his stay in the city of Sin.
Indeed looking major, C.KHiD spend thousands of dollars with local directors, models, and actors to fund his vision with rap videos. His first video filmed in town, "Do The Hustle," has over half-a-million views today and still growing. It features the viral MC performing his catchy single on the Las Vegas Boulevard and showing multiple hustles of America's gaming capital.
C.KHiD describes the visual as a showcase of the plethora of Hustlers and Dreamers that make things happen in the city, some quite uniquely.
"Performers on The Strip, shooting craps & gambling, a gorgeous Brazilian model, bright lights, and some of the outdoor shows. My director (Mystik Films) and I felt no city was greater for the sound and concept, if you Hustle, you can make it."
Since Do The Hustle, C.KHiD's success has continued to sky rocket. Follow up videos "Yeah Girl," "New Rap Songs," and "No No" are currently gaining buzz. 'AYO,' a project shot at the shores of Lake Meade, is set to be a big single for the internet musician when ready to promote new songs of 2014.
To top that success, YouTube invited the rapper into their state of the art studio space, to direct & produce his own TV show. Titled 'The School Rap,' the first rapisode just launched and it's becoming clear the sky's the limit for this Vegas transplant who's made Sin City his 2nd home.
A show focused on the idea of typical, college student conversation, C.KHiD hopes to get at least one UNLV talent involved in the process of its growth. Currently he's acting in the show, along with directing 5 other actors and 4 crew members.
Watch the first episode of The School Rap, "The Christmas List" on YouTube.com/ckhid.

There was a pastor murdered at this exact range at beech fork back in 2008, I don't know if they ever solved it or charged anyone.

Wish the agent could elaborate on the thanks.you probably did a good thing, not only for safety of others but for......safety of others
I'd have split and left my targets...you could have returned to retrieve them later if you really wanted them.
I almost replied to the thread until I saw the date when it was started. So here I am replying to a 5 year old post, lol.
About 12 years ago at a public range outside Charlotte my buddy and I were trying out his new Sig239 when these two guys show up with shotguns and clays. They seem pretty cool even letting us shoot some. At one point I go down range to change targets. These are big boxes maybe eight feet apart. As I reach one box BOOM, shotgun discharge, the box next to me goes flying. I spin around and these guys are laughing it up big time. "Shoulda seen you JUMP" they said. After that my buddy and I quickly made our exit.
I left out a bunch of things from the story so i could keep it short, but suffice it to say, those guys were really scary to be around. It was like watching a training film about how to spot a terrorist.

Few designers are as successful as Nanette Lepore at dressing the modern working woman. But Lepore did it yet again at her A/W '14 runway show on Wednesday Feb. 12, creating a bevy of wearable feminine frocks for just about any smart fashionista. Examiner.com was on the scene to view the collection in person. "My inspiration for this collection came from the Interwoven Globe Show at the MET," Lepore tweeted pre-show.
Always one of the few designers who show looks in striking colors, Lepore worked with a palette of deep reds and purples as well as neutrals. The show started with a simple bordeaux low v-neck dress and showed several office ready looks including a striped purple suit with gray cashmere turtleneck, a cranberry pantsuit with leopard belt, and a simple gray pantsuit.
There were fun skirts (patterned a-line pieces, minis, and more) and tops (sparkly cashmere sweaters, slouchy crop sweaters) and dozens of silky dresses covered in creative colorful patterns (think zigzags, stripes, and dots).
Outerwear standouts included a black wool and leather coat with black fur, a fuchsia large breasted short peacoat, and a charcoal knee length coat with black leather sleeves and lining. Highlights included a coal patterned double breasted skirt suit, a gray wool coat with plush red fur front over skinnies, and a glittery embroidered vest top paired with slouchy gray slacks.
Accessories were also playful with dozens of patterned and black leather belts and brightly colored suede heels (all shoes were paired with ankle socks, of course).

College Hockey:Lakers Squeak By Warriors, 3-2
Inglis The Difference for LSSU
DETROIT — Lake Superior State and Wayne State came into tonights game with just a single win between them. Maybe not the makings for an instant classic, but the Lakers came away with a 3-2 win over the still-winless Warriors.
The game was played in front of a decent, pro-Lake Superior State crowd of 380 at the now-heated Michigan State Fairgrounds Coliseum. Both teams' goalies were riding hot streaks through two periods until the Lakers' Pat Inglis took charge in the third period.
"Pat's been struggling lately and he's one of the guys we're leaning on to get going," LSSU head coach Jim Roque said. "He made some big saves in the third period (including one of his head) and really showed the intensity we need out of him."
"I was seeing the puck really well tonight," noted Inglis, who made 20 saves to jump the Lakers' record to 2-4-1. "Their big guy, (Mike) Forgie, they put him in front of the net, but I was able to use my size to see over top of him and make some aggressive saves. This week in practice, I stayed out longer and tried to work hard and get some good habits that work in practice that can hopefully work in games."
The game was 1-1 after two periods when Lakers' captain Troy Schwab scored on a two-on-one break to put the Lakers ahead at 4:32 of the third period.
Schwab elected to take the shot from the right wing side and his snap shot hit WSU goalie Brett Bothwell in the blocker, but the puck crawled up his arm and dropped inches over the line.
"That's the turning point right there," Roque noted. "It was good to get a break and good to get the lead. We haven't been getting any breaks, but haven't been doing anything to get those breaks. Tonight, we just found a way to win."
Steven Kaunisto started the scoring just 2:06 into the game on a four-on-three man-advantage. His shot from the point found its way through traffic and trickled past Bothwell.
At 12:28, junior Bryan Olds scored his first career goal. Olds stole the puck in his own end and went nearly the length of the ice untouched before putting a shot off the far post and in.
The second period was scoreless before Schwab and Nathan Perkovich scored third-period tallies.
Perkovich's was a bang-bang play in front as Rick Schofield shoveled Perkovich the puck and he beat Bothwell along the ice stick side.
Tylor Michel added a goal with 10 seconds left with Bothwell on the bench, but it was a smidge too late.
Bothwell finished with 17 saves for Wayne State, now 0-6-1.
"We're fighting the puck and squeezing our sticks too hard," Wayne State coach Bill Wilkinson said. "We played two periods and were right there. We've had our scoring opportunities, but we're just snake bitten. It's definitely not for lack of effort."
Both coaches said they would start different goalies in tomorrow night's rematch (Brian Mahoney-Wilson for LSSU and Kyle Funkenhauser for the Warriors).
Roque expects another tough game from WSU.
"I expect both teams to come out and battle, just like you saw here tonight," said Roque. "Bill's done a good job with that team and I know it's hard to motivate that team, but he's done a good job."
"Any time you play a team outside your conference, those are all big games," added Wilkinson. "You want to get that recognition for not only your team, but for your league. I think it's bigger for us playing them than it is for them to come here and play lowly Wayne State. We want to go out and prove ourselves."

What to Eat at the Greenwich Project, Bringing Fancy Cocktails and Ramp Pasta to the Village
That's right. Ramps.
From the owners of the Mulberry Project and the Vinatta Project comes a new, similarly named bar-restaurant. The Greenwich Project is housed in a 74-seat townhouse that's outfitted with pop art — so while this place is certainly upscale, it doesn't take itself too seriously. If you're coming here to drink, stay to order food, too. The bar on the ground floor offers small plates, while the upstairs level is a full-fledged restaurant. Chef Carmine Di Giovanni is making dishes like peektyoe crab salad, diver scallops, and lobster cavatelli with ramps and crayfish (ramps! ramps!). Take a look at the menus* and a few of the dishes, ahead.

EUGENE, Ore. – Incoming freshman Ariana Washington led a quartet of Oregon women competing at the IAAF World Junior Track and Field Championships, Wednesday, finishing seventh in the women's 100.
Washington, who will be coming to Eugene from Long Beach Poly High School, recorded a time of 11.64 in the finals, after advancing second in her semifinal heat in 11.73.
Maggie Schmaedick placed 12th in the 5,000 in front of her home crowd of 7,085 fans. The Eugene native just missed a personal-best time, crossing in 16:19.01.
"I'm a little bit bummed to not get the PR, but I'm really happy to have had the opportunity to run in this race. It's against really excellent competition so I feel really blessed that I got to run there."
Ashlee Moore entered the day in 11th place in the heptathlon, but quickly made up ground with a strong performance and a personal best in the long jump, soaring 5.86m which ranked fifth in the field. Moore then came up with a big throw on her final attempt in the javelin, recording a distance of 39.35m. The Phoenix Ariz., native finished in 13thoverall after the 800, setting a PR of 5,466 points.
"There's a lot to work on," Moore said. "So I'm excited to come back for college, especially here, and get to work on a few events."
Christian Brennan qualified out of the first round of the women's 400 and into the semifinals. Brennan, who was sporting the jersey of her native Canada, finished third in her heat while clocking a time of 54.84.
The third day of the competition will begin, Thursday at 10 a.m., and the afternoon session starting at 6 p.m. Oregon freshmen Brennan and Cole Walsh, who won the U.S. title weeks ago, will be competing.

Junior Sophia Lozano
Feb. 18, 2014
ST. LOUIS -- Saluki track and field thrower Sophia Lozano was named the Missouri Valley Conference Female Field Athlete of the Week, the conference announced Tuesday.
Lozano, a junior native of O'Fallon, Mo., produced her most impressive performance to date with a win in the weight throw invite elite at the GVSU Big Meet on Friday with a huge PR. In second place on her final throw, Lozano threw 20.82m (68-03.75) for the victory. Her new mark leapfrogs teammate DeAnna Price for fifth all-time at SIU (up from seventh), first in the MVC and 14th in the nation. Lozano and Price hold the top-two Valley spots, and Southern owns three in the top-five and four in the top-eight.
Saluki track and field will hit the road this Friday for the Friday Night Special hosted by Eastern Illinois in Charleston, Ill. -- SIU's final meet before the MVC Indoor Championships on March 1-2.
Entering competition at the GVSU Big Meet last week, junior Sophia Lozano already held the second-best weight throw mark in the Missouri Valley and the seventh-best in SIU history. However, in second place and on her final attempt in the weight throw invite elite Lozano hit the best mark of her career on a 20.82m (68-03.75) throw for the win. She now ranks fifth all-time at SIU, first in the MVC and 14th nationally.
With only one meet to go before the MVC Indoor Championships, Southern is sitting in good shape for the conference meet. SIU owns 40 total top-eight marks or times in the conference (16 men, 24 women) -- including five top-marks.

Distribution & Financing Activities in the Master Budget
Original post by Kathy Adams McIntosh of Demand Media
Businesses need to manage both their distribution and financing activities. Distribution activities involve shipping inventory to company facilities and to customers. Financing activities ensure that the company holds enough cash to finance its operation. As the business owner oversees his distribution and financing activities, he prepares a master budget. The master budget allows the business owner to consider the expected costs of distribution and the financing needs for the following year.
Master Budget
The master budget includes all components of the financial plans for the following year. This includes a sales budget, an expense budget for each department and a cash budget. Each component builds on the other sections of the budget. The sales budget considers the anticipated sales for the following year and forms the basis for the expense budgets.
Distribution Activities
The distribution department facilitates the transport of products between company sites and to customers. These activities require the company to hire truck drivers and purchase delivery trucks. Some companies use pickup trucks while other companies need tractor-trailers. Worksites and customer facilities may be located in the same city or in different states. Some companies transact business with customers in other countries and maintain a distribution facility in those locations. The company uses its distribution expense budget to determine its costs for the year.
Distribution Expense Budget
The expense budget for the distribution department constitutes one segment of the master budget. The manager of this department considers driver wages, vehicle maintenance and fuel costs for the upcoming year. These costs form the basis for the distribution expense budget.
Financing Activities
Financing activities involve borrowing money or selling stock in the company. Both activities gain additional funds which the company can use to maintain current operations or to pursue new strategies. If the company chooses to borrow money, it needs to consider whether to obtain a bank loan or to issue bonds. If the company sells stock, it needs to consider whether to seek investors personally and keep the company small or whether to issue stock through the stock market. The company uses the cash budget to determine its financing needs.
Cash Budget
The cash budget forms another component of the master budget. The cash budget considers the available cash balance each period throughout the year. The company estimates its expected cash receipts and cash disbursements to determine where it might lack enough money to operate. The company needs to plan its financing needs for these times. These cash receipts and disbursements appear on the cash budget.

Somebody more clever than I had the idea to search Apple's website for "iPhone 5" and managed to catch a slip-up that appears to confirm the device that is launching at today's press conference will, in fact, be called the iPhone 5. Exciting right? We're just hours away from the actual announcement, so stay tuned for a flow of Apple related news.
Of course, this could be a good move by Apple to misdirect everyone into believing it's going to be called the iPhone 5. We will have an official announcement in just a short while, but sticking to iPhone 5 seems plausible. If they don't, they could create massive amounts of confusion.
The search engine also revealed new iPod touches:

A Hmong Child, Her American Doctors, and the Collisionof Two Culture
A book I like to teach
One of my grad school teachers said that anyone teaching bioethics should adopt Anne Fadiman's The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down. Upon arriving at Baylor I took up her suggestion, and I have taught the National Book Critics Circle Award winner twice a year for nearly a decade.
Britain's House of Commons voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to legalize the creation of so-called "three-parent babies." Though advocates of the move say it will help prevent a debilitating and often lethal condition, many warn that the procedure, though well-intentioned, opens the door to ethical and safety questions that have yet to be sufficiently grappled with.
Why an Ancient Biblical Vision Is Key to the World's Future
Spring books
David Gushee's attempt to define and defend the concept of the sacredness of life is a welcome reminder of why it is so important that we not take for granted the protections that surround our lives and the lives of others.
The Body of Compassion: Ethics, Medicine, and the Church, by Joel James Shuman
Questions about donor conception
In The Kids Are All Right, a sperm donor connects with his biological children but is eventually dismissed as an "interloper" in their lives. To believe that the kids are all right, we have to agree with this judgment.
Directed by Mark Romanek
Based on the award-winning 2005 novel by Kazuo Ishiguro, who also penned The Remains of the Day, Never Let Me Go is that rare story that doesn't rely on a revelatory plot twist to make its thematic point and drive the message home.
Controlling the human genome
The completion, or near completion, of the human genome project was announced with expressions of Promethean awe. The New York Times called the feat "a pinnacle of human self-knowledge." Other commentators referred to the new knowledge as the "Book of Life." President Clinton said mapping the body's sequence of genes was like "learning the language of God." And Dr.
Manipulating the genetic code
When two groups of scientists announced in mid-February that they had finished mapping the human genome, scientists, politicians and journalists paid rapt attention. The human genetic code has been deciphered! We are on our way at last to obeying scientifically the old Delphic oracle: Know thyself!
Last month two fertility specialists, an American and an Italian, announced plans to clone a human being in the next two years. If they don't get the job done, it's very likely that someone else on the planet will. Margaret Talbot, writing recently in the New York Times, reports that many scientists expect a cloned human to be introduced within five years.

O'Shea booked up for reading initiative
by Sunderland AFC
Black Cats back reading campaign.
SAFC captain John O'Shea has kicked-off this year's Premier League Reading Stars initiative, encouraging school pupils across the region to read more books.
The Black Cats skipper signed up to the scheme as part of the National Literacy Trust campaign, taking part in an interactive DVD to be shown in schools in which pupils are set reading challenges by the Republic of Ireland international.
The challenges are used to support over 30,000 children in 1,000 schools and libraries, who are taking part in a 10 week reading intervention, using children's passion for football to encourage further reading.
Now in its 11th year, the Premier League Reading Stars has seen three out of four pupils improve their reading level by up to a year, with almost nine out of ten pupils now reading more because they know that Premier League footballers read books.
As part of the campaign, John O'Shea selected his favourite children's and current book - Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr Fox and the latest book by John Grisham, Sycamore Row.
Speaking about taking part in the Premier League's Reading Stars, John O'Shea said: "Reading is hugely important for everybody in education, no matter what their age. I enjoying relaxing with a good book and it's great to be able to help encourage more young people to start reading books."
Jim Sells, Manager of the programme at the National Literacy Trust said: "We're delighted to be working with the Premier League and the Reading Stars programme. The National Literacy Trust's experience in supporting children to read for pleasure, combined with Premier League football's huge influence, means we have a fun and appealing programme with proven results. Using football as a hook to get children to enjoy reading enriches their lives, helps them to succeed at school and gain vital skills for the future."
Premier League Chief Executive Richard Scudamore said: "We're very proud of Premier League Reading Stars, our literacy programme which has inspired tens of thousands of young people to raise their reading levels. The fact that the schools we work with have low achievement in literacy and high numbers of children from less well-off homes means that we are helping those who need it most, providing a positive impact on their lives. Now we're hoping that this year's line-up of Reading Stars will be able to reach an even wider audience."
Premier League Reading Stars is funded by the Premier League and Arts Council England.

A SPEWBUCKET, a FALLEN CRAWL and a CRAZY JOE are three of the specially named cocktails that will be available at next Wednesday's triple CD launch at SJ's Hotel for MISCHLING, CRAWL and DAVOLA. All three bands have had CDs out for a couple of months but THE HOTHOUSE at SJ's is celebrating the fact on Wednesday, July 14, with a shindig. Crawl and Davola are semi-finalists in this year's XPOZAY BAND COMPETITION, and so were Mischling at last year's Xpozay.
Davola's consists of SCOTT KELLETT on vocals and bass, his brother LLOYD KELLETT on drums and vocals and guitarist vocalist WADE BAILEY. The band's CD FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY gives a good indication of what to expect of the band live, and is available at gigs.
The band live has been likened to a cross between PRIMUS and DEVO, for its inventive composition and manic vocals.
The stage show is energetic and entertaining, with the band displaying its sense of humour through bizarre costumes and choreography.

Samsung Galaxy S Duos
The Samsung Galaxy S Duos is the company's new attempt in getting the mid range dual SIM Android market. The S duos looks very much like the company's flagship model – Samsung Galaxy S3. The Samsung Galaxy S Duos could easily be the stripped down version of the Galaxy S3 along with maintaining the looks. The mid range Dual SIM Android phone runs on yesteryear's version – Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and is powered by a 1GHz processor and fueled by 768MB. There is a very decent 5MP camera at the back and the display is a 4inch one with 480×800 pixel resolution.
Samsung Galaxy S Duos – Features
The main thing about the S Duos is the dual sim feature and the S Duos comes with Smart dual sim feature. Smart dual sim makes sure that you never miss a call on either of the SIMs. If you are on call in either of the SIMs and a call comes to the other sim, then that call is forwarded to the SIM being used and thus notifying the user about the incoming call. A full touch 4inch TFT display of 480×800 pixels is quite good for a dual SIM mid range offering. Android 4.0.4 is in charge of the software department and the hardware specs are 1GHz Cortex-A5 processor, 768MB RAM and Adreno 200 GPU. There is 4GB internal storage and there is support for microSD card. The build quality and the design is quite similar to the Samsung Galaxy S3 and this could be a real selling point given the craze of Galaxy S3. In terms of connectivity, the Samsung Galaxy S Duos is a real winner with WiFi, 3G (on both SIMs), Bluetooth, GPS with A-GPS, microUSB, stereo FM with RDS and so on.
Samsung Galaxy S Duos – Worth the price?
The Samsung Galaxy S Duos is available across the country for Rs17,900. For that money, it gives a decent performance and also borrows some quality styling from the Galaxy S3.
Samsung Galaxy S Duos is the best dual SIM Android phone yet.

College Hockey:Off The Schneid: UAA Shocks Wisconsin For First-Ever WCHA Playoff Win
Johnson Nets Winner, King Stops 45 For Seawolves
MADISON, Wis. — This one was for all those former Alaska-Anchorage players who had to live with the team's 0-for in the WCHA playoffs.
So said Seawolves coach John Hill after a landmark 3-2 victory over Wisconsin in Game 1 of a best-of-three first-round playoff series at the Kohl Center.
Justin Johnson broke a 2-2 tie with Alaska-Anchorage's third power play-goal of the game in the third period and Chris King made 45 saves for the Seawolves, who won for the first time in 12 seasons in the WCHA playoffs. They were 0-22 in their first 11 seasons of tournament play and had been outscored 113-33.
"For everyone who's ever worn a Seawolf uniform and played in the WCHA, I'm glad this is over and they'll never have to hear that their program has never won a game," said Hill, an Anchorage native who is a former UAA captain and assistant coach. "It means a lot to us. But don't get me wrong — we're not satisfied just winning a game."
Game 2, when the Seawolves have the opportunity to erase their name from the list of league teams never to have made the Final Five, is scheduled for Saturday. That list currently consists of one team.
Johnson redirected a Chris Fournier shot from the middle of the ice, just inside the blue line, past Wisconsin goaltender Bernd Brckler for the game-winner. It came with 14:04 remaining in the third period.
It was the first time all season the Seawolves, who are the eighth seed in the playoffs, have scored three power-play goals in a game. They were 3-for-6 with the man advantage. Wisconsin, the third seed, was 2-for-7.
Hill went into the series saying Alaska-Anchorage (12-20-3) needed to score three goals a game to have a chance against the Badgers (20-11-8). His words were prophetic, although he said Friday his statement meant more that he was confident King would hold the Badgers to two or fewer goals.
King did his share, stopping 15 shots in the first period, 18 in the second and 14 in the third.
Wisconsin, which outshot the Seawolves 47-24, had a power-play chance in the last four minutes of the third period but couldn't capitalize.
"Ten games with a lead in the third we've either lost or tied," Hill said. "It was our night."
Hill then let out a sigh of relief.
"I don't get real emotional, but I almost broke down in the dressing room," he said. "I played here and I was an assistant here when we joined the WCHA. And it's painful being an alum knowing your program's never won a game in the playoffs. And I just feel like now that abyss is over.
"The sigh of relief is that, regardless what happens, these guys will know that I guess they made history, to a degree. But we've got to win another game. Because I'll tell you what, if we're leaving on a plane Monday going back to Anchorage, this is not going to feel real good."
The Badgers lost their second straight game, but coach Mike Eaves said his team can't panic.
"They were disappointed, but we just talked about it for a second. We said, 'Let's hold on. This is a series,'" Eaves said. "Let's save our emotional energy, our physical energy and let's look at the game, talk about the good things we did, things maybe we can change and come back and play tomorrow night."
Jake Dowell gave the Badgers a 1-0 lead in the first period, and Ross Carlson tied the game at 2 in the second after UAA's Dallas Steward and Charlie Kronschnabel scored.
Badgers goaltender Brckler made 21 saves.
The Seawolves managed a brief celebration on the ice at the final horn, but then it was back to reality.
"We're not done yet," senior forward Dallas Steward said. "It's an accomplishment, but it's an even keel because we know it's still a long ways from over."
