EUGENE, Ore. -- O Heroes has two of its signature annual service events of the Fall Quarter coming up in early November. O Heroes has organized Animal Shelter Day which will be at Greenhill Humane Society on Sunday, Nov. 4. UO student-athletes will then team up with Special Olympics Oregon to host the third annual Bowling Night on Monday, Nov. 12.
Animal Shelter Day, which runs from approximately 12-2 p.m., starts off the weekly service partnership for O Heroes volunteers at Greenhill. Several UO student-athletes spend time on a weekly basis at Greenhill, where volunteers help walk, run and play with the animals in an effort to help make them more adoptable.
The Bowling Night event will take place at Emerald Lanes and is scheduled to run from 4-5:30 p.m. The teams will be made up of 40 UO student-athletes and 90 athletes from Special Olympics Oregon.
The Thanksgiving Basket Drive is underway and runs through Saturday, Nov. 17. O Heroes -- in conjunction with St. Vincent de Paul -- aims to collect 50 food baskets to distribute to families. To contribute contact Judy Sheldon (email@example.com / 541.346.5740).
Throughout the year, O Heroes will assist with several one-time service requests. Student-athletes from many different sports programs are called into action to work as volunteers. Below are a pair of upcoming service events on the calendar:
Sunday, Nov. 4: UO student-athletes will put up holiday decorations in the pediatric unit at Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend.
Friday, Nov. 9: Junction City's Oaklea Elementary will
tour UO's facilities following a trip to the Science Factory. UO
student-athletes have volunteered as tour guides for the youth of Oaklea
Elementary which is scheduled for walk-throughs of the Casanova Center,
Moshofsky Center and Autzen Stadium.
O Heroes is getting behind a new philanthropic initiative, Support Sport, with the purpose to promote global female participation in athletics. O Heroes is asking the Eugene/Springfield community to donate sports bras which will be collected and sent specifically to West Ambrym in the Pacific Islands.
The sports bra drive is ongoing and ends on Monday, Nov. 26. Donations can come in the form of a sports bra – either new or lightly worn – or as a gift card (from a local department store) which will be used to purchase new sport bras.
The donation center is at the John E. Jaqua Center for Student Athletes which is located on UO's campus at the corner of Agate and 13th.
The Support Sport donation drive was created by Brooke Strawn, a freshman forward on the Oregon women's soccer team. Strawn is working in conjunction with her sister, Kirsten Strawn, who is an Oregon alumni and current Peace Corp member.
After hearing of her sister's Peace Corp experiences in the Pacific Islands, Brooke Strawn approached O Heroes with this idea to help the women of West Ambrym.
Each week O Heroes sits down with one of our student-athletes to get to know more about them on and off the field. The selections are made by O Heroes student directors Maggie Kovacs (LAX) and Lauren Plum (VB).
This week's feature is on Maddy Mercier, a 5-7 senior defender on UO women's soccer team.
Mercier is currently pursuing an undergraduate degree in Human Physiology (Pre-Med). Her presence in the classroom and on the field is matched by her extraordinary involvement within the Eugene-Springfield community through her commitment to O Heroes. Even with her demanding schedule, Mercier excels as an O Hero.
Among many other O Heroes projects that she has volunteered for, Mercier worked especially close with the Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald Valley on the remodel of the "O Heroes room". This past summer, Mercier joined 20 fellow student-athletes for the Courts for Kids service trip to the Dominican Republic where she worked to build a sport court for the community.
Post-graduation, Maddy plans to move to Seattle, attend medical school and continuing her passion for working with kids and volunteering at local hospitals.
On the pitch, Mercier has played in 53 matches throughout her career for the Ducks, recording a total of eight points off of four goals. Her three goals in 2011 ranked fourth on the team, and two of those goals were game-winners. Mercier was an all-academic team honoree as a sophomore in 2010 and a Pac-12 All-Academic Team honoree as a junior in 2011.
The following is a list of student-athletes who have been recognized as Hero of the Week during the 2012-13 seasons:
• Ashley Inman (LAX) - Sept. 27
• Grant Thompson (FB) - Oct. 11
• Maddy Mercier (WSOC) - Oct. 25
Last year, O Heroes began profiling student-athletes who were particularly active in serving the community. The following is a list of student-athletes who were recognized as Hero of the Week during the 2011-12 seasons:
• Jessica Drummond (LAX) - Jan. 24
• Amanda Johnson (WBB) - Feb. 1
• James Scales (FB) - Feb. 6
• Michael Clay (FB) - Feb. 15
• Chynna Miley (WBB) - Feb. 23
• Alaina Bergsma (VB) - March 1
• Boseko Lokombo (FB) - March 7
• Erin Block (A&T) - April 18
• Trudie du Toit (WTEN) - April 25
• Kenjon Barner (FB) - May 21
Over 25 O Heroes volunteers braved the cold and damp conditions in the early morning of Sunday, Oct. 21 to assist in the annual Susan G. Komen Eugene Race For The Cure. Many of the student-athletes' volunteer shifts began as early as 6 a.m. The O Heroes contingency helped the race's organizers by checking in participants prior to the start of their races, gave out t-shirts and running bibs to each participant, served at water stations and assisted as course monitors throughout the race.
The Oregon Acrobatics and Tumbling program took time out on Saturday, Oct. 13, to assist with the inaugural Nick Symmonds Springfield 800. Proceeds of the event benefit Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Lane County. Symmonds, a five-time U.S. Champion, was on hand to meet with participants.
The race was run through the historic Washburn District in downtown Springfield. Many elite track and field athletes participated along with community members. Music was played both before and after the race, and food vendors were set up at the City Hall Fountain Plaza. The student-athletes who volunteered helped with all aspects of the pre- and post-race festivities.
Senior linebacker Michael Clay was recently profiled by Comcast SportsNet NW for his O Heroes volunteer work at the Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald Valley. The piece was titled Wednesdays with Michael: The "General" Leads By Example.
Clay, from San Jose, Calif., spends time mentoring youth members of the BGC each Monday and Wednesday throughout the academic/athletic calendar.
Last year Clay spent over 133 hours working with the Boys and Girls Club. He looks to spend even more time at the community center in this his final year at UO.
A link to the video and the entire profile as produced by Jordan Whitley and her team from Comcast SportsNet NW can be found online at goducks.com/oheroes.
O Heroes Director Judy Sheldon and the University of Oregon recently participated in a Global Sports Mentoring Program affiliated with the Center for Sport Peace Society, the U.S. Department of State and espnW.
Seventeen different women from all over the world were identified as emerging leaders in sports. Each traveled to the United States where they were paired with leading U.S. women who work in a sports-related field.
Hongxia Wei from Beijing, China, was the emerging leader who traveled to Eugene for the mentorship program. Wei works with China's General Administration of Sport where she is Director of Law and Regulation. Wei was paired with Sheldon, who was selected as a leading woman in U.S. sports.
Specifically through the O Heroes program, Wei was exposed to a comprehensive community development program led by elite level athletes. Through her work with the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center in the Lundquist College of Business, Wei had an insider's look at the sports industry, including management, media, and marketing.
Wei -- who spent three weeks in Eugene -- also worked with the many different departments within Oregon Athletics (administration, compliance, athletic communications, marketing, facilities).
The mentoring program was originated as part of an effort to empower women and girls through sports. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and ESPN President John Skipper announced in June 2012 the creation of the U.S. Department of State and espnW Global Sports Mentoring Program.
O Heroes announced their partnership with Snoball, a social media-focused fundraising platform, and Malka Diamonds and Jewelry, the UO's officially licensed jeweler, in hopes of accelerating their fundraising efforts.
Snoball will give Duck fans, alumni, students and staff the ability to make small, event-triggered donations to O Heroes via a parameter of giving called a "snoball." For example, users can make a $10 donation for each football win, $1 per goal for the soccer team, or $2 per dunk by the basketball team, with the ability to cap donations at a certain dollar amount. In addition, fans can create their own team-focused snoballs to fit their personal interest in each game, and link their contributions back to the O Heroes program. Snoballs will be made for each of the UO's 17 varsity teams.
Once a user makes a Snoball account they are able to donate to any and all of O Heroes' team-specific snoballs, share their giving on social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Foursquare, and help propel the ability for our student-athletes to create social change within our community.
Malka Diamonds and Jewelry has announced they will give 20 percent of all UO Collection jewelry bought on home football game days, both online or at their Portland store location, back to O Heroes. No promo code is necessary; all purchases from the UO collection on those days qualify.
Funds raised will support UO's student-athlete volunteer efforts throughout the Eugene-Springfield community including, but not limited to, the following partners: Boys & Girls Club of Emerald Valley, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Habitat for Humanity, Special Olympics, KIDSPORTS, Greenhill Humane Society, Food For Lane County and the Lane County School Districts.

The Duck Cup is a competition between all teams that effectively encompasses the major areas of student-athlete life. These areas include academic excellence, athletic excellence, personal development, career development and community service.
Each team is awarded points based on each category's criteria (see Point System on page 4 for more details). Team members are responsible for filling out and submitting point tracking forms to the Office of Student-Athlete Development for points to be tallied and tracked. Team and individual winners are announced at the end of the year Awards Banquet.
Past winners include:
• 2009-10: Lacrosse
• 2010-11: Soccer
• 2011-12: Acrobatics & Tumbling
The O Heroes program hosted its annual Opening Ceremonies at Pape' Field in Eugene on Sunday, Sept. 23. The evening was highlighted by a hypnotist act where 20 UO student-athletes were put under hypnosis and required to do several funny things.
Also as part of the event, executives of UO's Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) -- Lena Macomson (Women's Tennis) and Ben DeJarnette (Cross Country / Track & Field) -- spoke to the student-athletes in attendance about the importance of O Heroes.
Lisa Petersen, Oregon's Senior Women's Administrator, also spoke to the student-athletes about the importance of volunteering in the community. Pictures and video from the opening ceremonies can be found online at goducks.com/oheroes.
Student-athletes and staff from the University of Oregon Athletic Department embarked on a nine-day trip to the Dominican Republic from June 15-23. The UO contingent teamed up with Courts for Kids, a tax-exempt organization which regularly works with local groups and community members to build courts which provide youth with the opportunity to play sports.
The 20 representatives from UO traveled specifically to Los Cerros which is part of the rural town of Don Juan located two hours north of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The team stayed with host families in very primitive conditions with bucket baths, latrines, sparse electricity and even sparser light bulbs.
Courts for Kids is an official 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, based in Vancouver, Washington. The mission of Courts for Kids is to foster love, compassion, service and an expanding worldview as we take teams to economically disadvantaged areas, partnering with local organizations and community members to build courts which will provide kids with the opportunity to play sports.
A complete recap of the 2012 O Heroes Abroad International Service trip -- with photos and video -- is online at goducks.com/oheroes.
The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is a committee made up of student-athletes assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience. SAAC also offers input on the rules, regulations and policies that affect student-athletes' lives on NCAA member institutions campuses. SAAC has representatives from each team and meets bi-monthly.
The UO SAAC has had a profound impact on the Athletic Department and the community. SAAC consists of an impressive group of student-athletes, the best of the best, and we are very proud of their hard work and leadership abilities.
SAAC intends to promote effective communication between the student-athlete population as a whole, student-athletes as individuals, and the athletic department administration. SAAC will also provide student-athletes the opportunity to communicate with administration on local and national issues affecting student-athletes, while allowing student-athletes with the opportunity to provide suggestions and feedback on programs that serve student-athlete needs.
Below is a listing of the executive staff for the 2012-13 academic calendar.
Co-Chairs: Ben DeJarnette (CC/T&F) and Lena Macomson (WTEN)
O Heroes Chairs: Lauren Plum (VB) and Maggie Kovacs (LAX)
Healthy Athletes / Sustainability Chairs: Robin Cambier (MTEN) and Sarah Andrews (T&F)

O Heroes is a philanthropic organization run by UO student-athletes. The goal for O Heroes is to create a collective organization that can positively impact Oregon, specifically the Eugene/Springfield community. The student-athletes' efforts are a way of thanking the fans and the community for their continued support of UO Athletics. Generally the type of volunteer work includes participating in youth services, hospital visits, working with underprivileged groups, and overall community development.
After falling under the Duck Athletic Fund non-profit umbrella for the past four years, O Heroes was recently awarded its own 501(c)3 entity. This status enables O Heroes to fundraise more aggressively as to provide greater opportunities for Lane County communities. O Heroes has started fundraising initiatives through Snoball, a social media based fundraising platform, as well as with Malka Diamonds and Jewelry, who are donating 20% of sales from UO branded jewelry on game days.
O Heroes works on a weekly basis with the Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald Valley and the Greenhill Humane Society.
Each Wednesday throughout the school year, O Heroes volunteers mentor, play and interact with the youth from the Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald Valley.
Every Sunday, O Heroes representatives spend time at Greenhill Humane Society to help walk and run dogs, play with cats and rabbits in an effort to help make them more adoptable.
Student-athletes at the University of Oregon are committed to giving back and serving the local community. Through the O Heroes program, UO student-athletes regularly complete over 4,000 hours of service per year and serve a wide variety of schools in Lane County.
The focus of O Heroes is concentrated in three key initiatives: health, education and service. Student-athletes voluntarily fulfill many service requests from the community. However, priority is given to programs that meet the objectives of O Heroes. Sensitivity is given to student-athletes with respect to academic, competition, practice and training schedules.
Schools or organizations that would like to request the service of a student-athlete, please fill out the Online Appearance Request Form available at goducks.com/oheroes. Or contact O Heroes Program Director Judy Sheldon (contact info listed above).
Please note the following: Submitting a form does not guarantee the request will be fulfilled. Requests must be received at least two weeks prior to the date of activity. Requests for specific student-athletes or teams are not guaranteed. Please read the NCAA Guidelines/Restrictions prior to submitting an appearance request.

Theatre Arts
It doesn't take a degree to understand that the entertainment industry fuels our culture; its impact is felt around the globe. Our Theatre Arts faculty believes that it's time to inhabit this mission field! We have an incredible, experienced faculty of believer artists from the Kansas City area who are ready to equip you in performance-related, technical, and administrative areas of theatre. It is also our goal to prepare you spiritually to meet the challenges you will face as you experience the satisfaction of being salt and light in a life involved with theatre arts.
Here at CBC, you'll learn to be a team and build a team as you construct sets, take roles in our productions, direct other students, and create your own scripts. You'll minister to high schools, inner city churches, and the homeless as a part of our drama team. And when you leave Calvary, our hope and prayer for you will be that you will take the dramatic heart of Christ with you to your church, your school, and your community. How? As a teacher of theatre at a high school, as a director of your church's worship arts team, as an incredible storyteller in a children's program, or even as an actor in professional theatre!
Chapel Theatre
CBC's Chapel Theatre troupe is probably Calvary's zaniest and quirkiest class. Energy exudes from every pore as students work together to collectively create scripts and rehearse scenes to augment the themes in chapel services while learning how to minister through theatre in their own church and future ministry settings.
Master Class
CBC Theatre Arts offers master classes in Musical Theatre, Acting, and Directing! In just one weekend, master class students work with master class teachers on auditioning skills in vocal, choreography, and acting disciplines to produce a show open to the public and composed of musical theatre and theatrical offerings. Past master class instructors have included Nathan Jeffrey, a director at Taproot Theatre in Seattle, and Ben Jeffrey, currently starring in Lion King as Pumbah the Warthog.
Logos Theatre Company
CBC Theatre Arts is very pleased to announce our newest addition, Logos Theatre Company for elementary and high school students of theatre and dance. Logos' faculty, headed by Rachel Maltby and composed of past and present CBC Theatre Arts students along with CBC choreographer Beckie Lucas, offers a feast of course offerings for believer artists!
Theatre Major and Minor
The Theatre Arts major will equip students in the academic, performance-related, technical, and spiritual foundations of dramatic production. It will also develop skilled and disciplined actors who respect their art and their craft. Click here to learn more.
Several daytime recitals are scheduled each semester to help students grow through performing in a smaller recital setting.

The success which the Avatar movie gained in 2009 generated a whole new industry" 3D multimedia entertainment. First we have seen a big number of 3D movies. Now a lot of 3D games are trying to put the player in an environment which looks very real.
Even if it passed only 2 years from the 3D boom which covered the entire world, the 3D games industry has gained an accelerated development. Nowadays it can show off with some very popular titles on a very wide range of platforms, because we have 3D games for consoles and 3D games for PC.
You will find in this post some of the best 3D games which are available for each of these platforms. Also, we will offer you some advises for having the best experience while playing this kind of titles.
3D Games for PC
The 3D games for your PC came on the market in 1982 along with Sub-Roc 3D. But the real success followed in 2010, when the larges games producers have decided to release 3D versions of their well known titles.
How to Use the 3D Games for PC
You must know that, in order to play 3D games on your PC, you don't necessarily need to have a 3D monitor. But it is required to use the 3D technologies which are produced by the graphic cards producers: nVIDIA and AMD.
- nVIDIA 3D Vision is a technology through which you will be able to see stereoscopic 3D images with a some nVIDIA 3D Vision glasses. It is also required to use a monitor which will support the frame rate of 120 Hz. Because these glasses cost around $200, the cheaper option is to use the classic 3D glasses with red and blue lens (they look like the ones you receive in a 3D cinema) and an nVIDIA video card;
- AMD HD3D. This technology has been developed by AMD in order to convert the classic games in 3D format with the help offered by a software application. This technology is compatible with many AMD graphic cards and classic monitors. You will find a complete guide on AMD site.
3D Games for PC
- Call of Duty: Black Ops. this is probably the first popular game which has a 3D version for PC. And this is also one of the best FPS games, in which you will have to play with a lot of types of heroes. They are supposed to end successfully their missions. It is a very exciting game and it will not let you get bored.
- Assassin's Creed: Revelations. This is a very new adventure release which will walk you through the Roman Empire. The most part of the action takes place in Constantinople but you will also be sseing the Greek Rhodos Island, too.
- Crysis 2 is an FPS in which you will get a lot of action in the New York urban jungle. This game comes also with a great freedom in regards to weapons and skills customization.
With AMD HD3D you will be able to convert a lot of other games to the 3D format: Left 4 Dead 2, Mass Effect 2, Resident Evil 5, Far Cry 2, Mirror's Edge or World of Warcraft (WoW).
3D Games for consoles
Except the PC versions, there have been released some 3D games for TV, through a console like PlayStation3 (PS3), Xbox 360 etc. Most of the 3D games are available for PS3. If you own a PlayStation3, you have to upgrade to the latest firmware and to use an HDMI 1.4 cable (the only version which is compatible with 3D technology). Of course you will be needing some 3D glasses, too.
So here you will find just a few of 3D games which are available for PlayStation 3:
- Batman Arkham City is an open world action game. Your character is Batman itself and you have to accomplish a series of missions through the Arkham City.
- Assassin's Creed Revelations. The PC game comes also in a version for consoles. Assassin's Creed Revelations is an adventure which we will take you in the times of the Roman Empire. Most of the time you will be playing in the City of Constantinople but you will also visit the Rhodos Island, in Greece.
- Killzone 3 is another FPS game but, this time, it is only available on PS3. You will be visiting the Arctic region, the alien jungle or some areas which are affected by nuclear explosions. All of these are available in 3D, of course.
- Resistance 3 is one of the newest releases on the market. You will be trying a lot of new weapons and also the most popular ones which you were using in the previous titles of this series.
- Gran Turismo 5 is the well known racing game developed by Plyphony Digital only for PS3. Now it can be played in 3D, too. You will have an outstanding gaming experience on some of the most popular racing tracks and you will also drive some of the best cars and prototypes in the world.
Last year, some 3D games for Xbox 360 have been released, also. As in the PlayStation 3 situation, here will have the same usual titles, too, but adapted to 3D technology: Batman Arkham Asylum: Game Of The Year: 3D Edition, Thor: God of Thunder, Assassin's Creed: Revelations or Crysis 2. There are also available some exclusive titles, like Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
3D Games Online
From the 3D Games there are available right now, the online ones are just a few and they are also very weak developed. These games are very elementary and will not draw the attention of the most of the gamers. IF you are still curious to see how they look, we suggest you try Duck Shoot 3D (you will have to shoot some ducks, using your mouse), Shootng 3D (an FPS in which all you have to do is to shoot your opponents, using your keyboard) or Invaders from Space 3D (you are in a space ship and you have to destroy UFO's which are attacking you).
3D Games will give you headaches
The experience given by a 3D game is marvelous. Bu we strongly recommend you taking care of how much will play in this kind of games. Some people may experience headaches or other similar problems while watching too much 3D content. If you are one of those people you should consider having some brakes from time to time.
Furthermore, some studies have revealed the fact that 5-10% of the world's population is not able to see 3D images with special 3D eyeglasses.
These are just a few PC, consoles and online 3D games which came on the market in the past year. The good news is that you won't be needing a special 3D monitor or TV in order to enjoy these effects.

CityBoxing Presents: Judgement Day 2 March 13, 2004 San Diego, CA
CityBoxing is a full-featured gym in San Diego featuring yoga, boxing, kickboxing, and jiu-jitsu and is the home of grappling stalwarts Brent Stuchlik, Brandon Vera, and of course Dean Lister. Together they have run several successful in house tournaments that have attracted talent from both the surrounding suburbs and the whole of Southern California and features a lower entry fee, prizes that rival the larger tournaments and round robin action all within a friendly and competitive atmosphere. The CityBoxing tournament had three skill levels and plenty of action throughout the day, including three exhibition kickboxing matches. The day began with a long and thorough explanation of the rules by head referees Brandon Vera and Dean Lister, but it was definitely emphasized that safety and sportsmanship would be the two most important considerations. Two good points were made, one by Brandon who stated that you should never pick up your opponent unless you can be sure of their safety (in other words if you put them in the air it was your obligation to make sure they land safely) an another that "playing by the rules" to get your opponent disqualified would not be tolerated either, and acting jobs, might get you disqualified. (This was in direct response to an infamous action the weekend before from a grappling "superstar" who may go down in infamy as having such an action named after him.) The round robin format guaranteed that everyone got multiple matches in, win lose or draw. This made it an excellent experience especially in the beginners division, where many students made their grappling tournament debuts. The advanced divisions saw a lot of standout action. Ulysses "Useless" Gomez submitted both of his opponents in the under 145 pound division. The under 160 division had Ryan Oropallo taking a stacked division based on the amount of points accumulated, but it also worth noted that Bao Quach went undefeated and provided some of the more action packed matches of the day. An exhausted but jubilant Ryan Gregg returned to action after a long lay off to win the under 175 division, defeating 2nd place finisher Joao Cunha in overtime. The over 200 division was won by Lloyd Marshbanks, who moves incredibly fast for someone who is closer to 280. Lloyd has a very impressive takedown arsenal and most opponents try to avoid standing with him. The definite highlight for me was as Brandon Vera was refereeing an advanced division on the main mat, tempers between two of the competitors flared and they began to get physical with each other in an unsportsmanlike way. Brandon VERY QUICKLY nipped it in the bud, separating the two contestants and when they failed to de-escalate we DQ'd both and threw them off of the mat. As they angrily tried to plead the case he basically would have none of it, and told them he didn't care who started it, if they threw blows they were both in the wrong and he cared too much for the sport to let them tarnish the image of it. I think both competitors were so stunned by Brandon`s quick and decisive action that they both quickly apologized to the tournament and to each other, and the tournament continued without incident. Glad to see someone who took charge and wanted to protect the image of the sport we all love. Brandon was later cracking about being only a purple belt ref, but I think everyone can learn a lesson from him. IS EVERYONE LISTENING? Good. CityBoxing and tournament sponsor Osiris Shoes hooked up the winners of the advanced division BIG TIME, with a prize package that included medals, t-shirts, certificates for shoes and a killer G.Bag Metatron 1050 which doubled as a backpack and a speaker amplified set! Word from Brent is that the CityBoxing tournaments are going to be a more regular occurrence, and that the next one had actually outgrown the gym and will be held in a larger venue, but the cost, format and prizes should remain intact! Hope to see you at the next one!

This is a beautiful, romantic, flattering dress in great condition, worn only once on my wedding day. Perfect for a romantic, 1920s style, boho, rustic, outdoors, or beach wedding!
The dress includes a silk sheath and a tulle/beaded overlay. There are tiny snaps included to hold the straps of both layers together.
There is a very small tear in the bottom of the tulle (approximately 1″) where I stepped on it, but it would be very easy to repair or just trim off. I can send pictures if you are interested.
I'm 5'7″ and wore the dress with 3.25″ heels. I can also send more pictures of myself in the dress if you'd like to see it from other angles.
NOTE: I have a veil that goes with the dress and was custom made. It is ivory and 18″ long. I can include the veil for an additional $100.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions!

I installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my new Mac Pro. I had some problems because bootcamp did not allow me to partition the hd without a Windows cd.
I inserted a Windows cd and did the partition and then I stopped the installation. I completed the installation of Ubuntu that now works.
The problem is that Grub can't start Mac OS. It sees the Mac OS X in the menu but if I try to start it I have a black screen or sometime just the boot manager.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Tiffany & Co. Attracts Pre-Earnings Traders
Schaeffer's Investment Research
TIF's high-volume session is headlined by a long straddle and call selling.
Volume is spiking in
Tiffany & Co.'s
(NYSE:TIF) options pits today, just one session ahead of the jeweler's appearance under the earnings spotlight. Against this backdrop, the equity's 30-day at-the-money implied volatility measure has advanced 5.2% to 36.4%, the reading's highest point since mid-March. About 18,000 contracts have traded so far, which is roughly six times the anticipated amount, with calls being slightly preferred to puts.
One of the more interesting transactions that took place today, just before noon, was one speculator's entry into a long straddle position. A single individual simultaneously traded blocks of 500 January 2014 82.50-strike calls and puts near their ask prices -- that is, at $5.05 and $6.30, respectively -- for a total net debit of $11.35 per pair of contracts. Volume outstrips open interest at both strikes, and implied volatility increased on the trades, pointing to buy-to-open action.
Therefore, in order for the block trader to profit by January options expiration, TIF shares -- currently sitting at $81.93 -- must perforate one of the two breakeven marks: $93.85 (strike price plus net debit) or $71.15 (strike price less net debit). Beyond that range, the investor stands to profit as the underlying rises or falls. Alternatively, if the shares stay within the range, the most the trader can lose is the premium paid, which would occur if Tiffany finished exactly at $82.50.
Also, data from the International Securities Exchange (ISE) shows a group of traders sold Tiffany calls to open at the September 85 strike. In doing so, based on the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the transactions, the speculators picked up $1.67 per contract -- which also represents their maximum potential gain on the play, should the shares not rise above $85 over the course of the next four weeks. However, if the shares rise above the strike during that time span, the call sellers could potentially be forced to deliver the shares for $85 each, no matter how high they rise.
That's a distinct possibility, too, considering TIF is up close to 42% year-to-date. Moreover, since mid-January, the stock has traded consistently above its ascending 20-week moving average, which functioned as a layer of support in June.
As mentioned earlier, Tiffany & Co. will be reporting its second-quarter earnings tomorrow before the market opens. The company has a mixed history in the earnings confessional, having beaten earnings-per-share estimates in just four out of its last eight quarterly updates. This time around, analysts are expecting TIF to report a profit of $.74 per share, $.02 better than its year-ago result.

CLAIM: Anne Hathaway Put on "500 Calories a Day Crash Diet"
"Anne Hathaway is having to resort to a drastic diet to lose weight to play her latest role," begins a piece in the Daily Mail.
According to the British tab, Hathaway "has been ordered to lose 16lbs in less than three weeks to play dying prostitute Fantine in the movie adaptation of Les Miserables."
And to achieve the look of a prostitute who's sick with tuberculosis, the Mail reports that "instead of eating the recommended daily allowance of 2,000 calories a day, the actress is now down to under 500 to achieve the rapid result."
A so-called "source" for the paper claims, "Producers have assigned [Hathaway] a personal trainer and she is literally eating nothing more than a couple of apples a day, and some protein – mainly in the form of a shake."
But while it's true Hathaway's character needs to look frail, talk of her practically starving herself is "one big exaggeration," her rep tells Gossip Cop, noting, "She is on a special diet but is not looking to lose that much weight, and is consuming more than 500 calories a day."

IntroductionThe main ingredient in Chinese cooking is rice, just as it is in other East Asian cuisines. While bread is consumed in the west and corn in South America, rice constitutes the main carbohydrate, and source of energy, in Chinese cuisine. Rice is consumed three times a day and the Chinese really can't imagine a meal without it.
There are other characteristics of Chinese cooking. All ingredients are eaten cooked: that is, nothing is eaten raw or fresh. Fresh salads, for instance, are not part of Chinese nutrition. In fact, if you happen to wander one day through a Chinese market, try eating a fresh carrot in front of local people. You will see how shocked they are. On the other hand, many types of food are semi-cooked and not overcooked like vegetables are in western-style soup. The famous technique of cooking called stir-fry cooks the ingredients "just right". The food is crispy in texture while retaining all the vitamins, natural flavour and taste.

The common person believes that if a part is made in mass production from a machine, all of the parts will be exactly alike. The truth is that even with the best of machines and processes, no two parts are exactly the same. The product will have a main or "mean" specification limit, with plus/minus tolerance that states that as long as the part is produced within this range, to that range, it is an acceptable part. The object is to hit the target specification, however, that is not always totally possible.
The purpose of a Histogram is to take the data that is collected from a process and then display it graphically to view how the distribution of the data, centers itself around the mean, or main specification. From the data, the histogram will graphically show:
Below, you will see an example of a histogram. Notice that there is one main peak, but also two secondary peaks on either side of the main peak.

Below, you will see an example of a histogram. Notice that there is one main peak, but also two secondary peaks on either side of the main peak.
The easiest way to explain how a histogram is formed is to say that the form is obtained by splitting the range of the data, into equal-sized bins (called classes). Then, for each bin, the number of points from the data set that fall into each bin, is counted. The best way to understand how the histogram is formed is to actually prepare one, so you should try to do the same as you follow along.
We will use the data listed in figure 6 for our exercise. This data represents the measurements taken from a process that makes machine parts, produced on Line A and Line B. The specification is listed as 150 ± 0.5 mm. The values on this chart were arrived at by subtracting 150mm from the measured value, and then multiplying by 10. For example, a measurement of 149.9 - 150 would equal -.10; multiplied by 10 would equal -1 We will now make a histogram of the data listed below, and compare the parts produced on Line A and Line B, and then overlay the two together.
Figure 6
Figure 8
Figure 7
Plot data from Lines A & B on the Manual Graph (For Excel version, Click Here). In this first exercise, I want you to put an "X" or "1" in the manual graph for Line A data above in the left side of the form under the column "Tally". Make a mark in the appropriate row for every data point in Line A, and then do the same for Line B. Then I want you to put the same mark for Line B data above in the right side of the form under the column "Tally". Total the number of occurrence for each number in the column marked "Frequency", and then add the frequency for A and B and put that number in the column marked A + B frequency.
When you are finished, your form should look like THIS when completed.
When you look at your graph on the form you just completed, you actually have a histogram of both Line A and Line B. If you were to plot those numbers on an Excel bar graph, they would look like this:
Figure 9 - Line A Histogram
Figure 10 - Line B Histogram
Remember that the specification was 150.0 ± 0.5 mm, therefore, any plot on either graph that is more than + 5 or less than - 5 is a non-conforming product and is unacceptable. Visually, by comparing both histograms, you can see that Line A has a shift to the right of the center line specification (150.0). Line B has a shift to the left.
The next exercise I want you to do is to take the total of Line A & B and plot that histogram. From your first exercise sheet, you added A + B and put that number in the far right column. Use the attached HISTOGRAM FORM to make your plots, put a "X" in each square. I have already put the totals from your first sheet in the Frequency column.
If we were to overlay both graphs, or plot both sets together, the histogram would look like figure 11, and your form should look just like this.
Figure 11 - Combined Histogram of Line A & B
To calculate the mean (Xbar), or average value, and the standard deviation to be used for further statistical computations, we will use the below chart for Line A.
The standard deviation is a measure of variability. Data is always scattered around the zone of central tendency, and the extent of this scatter is called dispersion or variation. Range is a simple method of measuring variance, but the most important measure is the Standard Deviation. The Standard Deviation is the square root of the population variance.

Range is a simple method of measuring variance, but the most important measure is the Standard Deviation. The Standard Deviation is the square root of the population variance.
To understand the chart, the left column is the actual value recorded on the right, and the "ui" factor on the left of the measurment.
The next column (fi) indicates how many times each value was recorded from the data taken.
The third column (ui) is the value indicated in the first column, to the left of the actual measurement, or the class representative value in converted form.
The fourth column is the second column multiplied by the third column, (fi * ui). For example, 1 times - 2 = -2.
The fifth column is a little tricky. You take the "fi" value and multiply it by the square of "ui" (for example -2 * -2 = 4, times 1 = 4).
I have done Line A for you. Now, you need to practice by doing Line B, and then also by computing the values for the combined Line A & Line B. Use the following BLANK FORMS to do your calculations. I have provided the initial numbers for you. After you have completed the exercise, you may select Exercise 3 below (see Check Your Work) and compare your results.
Now to compute Xbar and the Standard Deviation (s) from the table of Line A, we use the following formula:
To explain the above formula, 150 is the specification value. 138 is the total of the column fi * ui, and 60 is the total number of measurements taken (N). 0.1 is the formula factor. In the standard deviation formula, 532 is the total of the column fi * ui2.
You have already calculated the information on the previous form for Line B and the Combined Line A & B. Now it is time for you to COMPUTE THE MEAN and STANDARD DEVIATION for LINE B and for the combined LINE A & B.
To help ensure that you are on the right track, I have given you the answers below. However, you still need to do the actual calculations for practice to ensure you understand how to get the right answers.
With the specification of 150 ± 0.5 mm, the width of the class, or class interval, is 1 mm. This is five times the standard deviation (s) of Line A and five times the standard deviation (s) of Line B; four times the standard deviation (s) of A & B combined. In order for products to remain within specification, the width of a class should be at least SIX TIMES the Standard Deviation (s).
The Process Capability Index (Cp), is a value indicating how capable a process is of producing product without many defects. The higher the process capability index, the better the process is centered around the mean specification and the less possibility of defects. With reference to the process capability index (Cp), it can be expressed as follows:
While both lines exhibit that the products produced are close to the center of the specification, both of the indexes are less than 1, so this indicates that there will be defectives produced. Notice that when you combine both Line A and Line B, you have defectives on both sides of the specification, and thus the defectives produced actually increases, therefore the Cp drops even lower.
For a process to be suitable, it should have a Cp greater than 1.0. The higher the number, the better the process is centered. In the chart below, you can see the Cp, or Process Capability Index relative to the total product outside the two-sided specification limits, or +/- tolerance.
What can we do to eliminate the defectives and improve the process capability?

BEDFORD, Mass. -- It still runs the risk of becoming the Boston Bruins' version of Carlton Fisk's extra-inning home run for the Boston Red Sox in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series or the Boston Celtics' comeback from 21 points down in the 2002 conference finals.
Both of those great Boston postseason sports accomplishments of the past ultimately failed to pay off in a championship.
So as we wait to see how the Bruins' run through the 2013 Stanley Cup Playoffs ends, their comeback after trailing the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-1 in the third period of Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals on May 13 can only be classified as the wake-up call that sparked the Bruins to a deep postseason run.
The Bruins' improved quality of play from that night has continued forward into the Eastern Conference Final against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Including their wins in the first two games of this series, the Bruins have won seven of eight games and outscored their opponents 29-11 since they were behind the Maple Leafs 4-1.
Game 3 is Wednesday at TD Garden (8 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, RDS).
"It seems like it. It seems like we have to have a bad experience in order to get going," Bruins defenseman Dennis Seidenberg said after the team arrived at Hanscom Field from Pittsburgh on Tuesday morning. "Like two years ago (when the Bruins rallied from two games down against Montreal), we came out on top again. Once that happens, it seems like everybody starts playing better and rolling, and the whole team starts to fire."
No one will ever forget that Nathan Horton started the rally against the Maple Leafs with a goal 9:18 into the third period. Milan Lucic and Patrice Bergeron then scored extra-attacker goals 31 seconds apart with less than 1:22 remaining to tie the game. Bergeron made sure the comeback wasn't wasted with the overtime-winning goal 6:05 into the extra period. The Bruins then defeated the New York Rangers in the best-of-7 conference semifinals, 4-1.
Even though the comeback was remarkable and it started the Bruins on an amazing roll, defenseman Andrew Ference said he thinks part of the key to Boston's success has been that the team didn't take the victory against Toronto as a sign that it could coast.
"Well, it shouldn't take something like that. It's obviously something that everybody gets excited about, and we've definitely played better since, but you know that Toronto series was a tough series. They played us hard. And someone had the horseshoe with him in that game, because that's not going to happen very often," Ference said. "So I think everybody realized it was a great comeback, we're very fortunate. I just like the fact that I think a lot of guys turned the page on it and had fun with it that night and then immediately got ready for the next series. It was a good thing if you handle it the right way and don't talk about how great it was for the next week."
But if the Bruins earn six more wins, that comeback against the Maple Leafs will be talked about by players and fans alike for generations.

Just over 2 years ago, Small Giants embarked on the ambitious task of building one of the most sustainable residential developments in Australia. Today, Small Giants has handed over the eco-apartments to the new residents – ready for the new owners to build upon the foundations of this inner-city, vertical eco-village. The Commons is home to just 24 apartments, along with two artist studios, a cafe and retail space. All of the apartments were sold prior to the completion of construction and all purchasers were eager to settle and move in before Christmas. The café space is currently being fit-out and is expected to open in early 2014.
This striking building, with its copper and ironbark clad façade, was designed by local Brunswick architects Breathe Architecture. The Commons was meticulously built by Kubic Constructions who appreciated and responded positively to the bespoke nature of the job. Their attention to detail and willingness to explore alternative construction methods and finishes shines through in many aspects of the building.
The proximity of The Commons to public transport is critical to the overall sustainability of the development. Uniquely, there are no car spaces allocated to the residences of The Commons – residents share the 65 bike spaces located in a secure garage and share the GoGet car parked directly out the front of the building in Florence Street. Being only 6km from the CBD and a short walk to the Sydney Road shops, the luxury of a personal car space is not critical to enjoying the lifestyle that The Commons presents.
The sustainability features do not end with the various transport options. Other ESD features include:
- Double-glazed, and thermally broken windows and balcony doors throughout – including locally made timber sliding doors by Binq;
- Recycled timber flooring and feature wall salvaged from demolished houses and schools around Victoria specifically sourced by Small Giants during the course of construction;
- Exposed concrete ceilings and structural columns to provide thermal mass to the apartments. This thermal mass, along with extra insulation and ceiling fans, ensures that no air-conditioning is required in the apartments;
- Raw and toxic free finishes to tapware, door handles and joinery ensuring that the indoor air quality is as optimal as possible for residents.
However, the highlight of The Commons is the extensive green roof with sweeping CBD views. The productive garden has 46 raised vegetable boxes – locally manufactured in Brunswick by Future Environment Garden Builders. These boxes provide ample space for residents to grow and share their own produce. The green roof also features an "intensive green roof" featuring hardy native plants that filter stormwater run-off from the building and act as an insulating blanket on the apartments below. This area also provides for a sensational entertaining deck.
Small Giants is proud to have delivered this landmark project and to have raised the sustainable living benchmark in Australia. It is now the blueprint for future inner-city residential developments, including Oxford & Peel – a Small Giants project currently being marketed in Collingwood (www.oxfordandpeel.com.au)

With a traditional mortgage, each monthly payment
comprises principal plus interest. In the early years of the loan,
most of the payment goes for interest. Gradually, more and more
of the monthly payments go toward principal. At the end of the term,
the loan is completely repaid. This process of paying principal
and interest until the loan is paid off is called amortization.
Some equity debt is not fully amortized. The principal
is not paid off at the end of the loan term. This is especially
the case with some credit lines. At the end of the loan term, often
15 years, all of the outstanding debt is due in a lump sum. This
is called a balloon payment.
If you can't pay your balloon off at once, you could
lose your home. Most people get out of this by refinancing the loan's
outstanding balance into a home equity loan or another line of credit.
If rates are high or your credit has gone sour, and you can't refinance
the balloon payment, you could be forced to sell the home to pay
off the balloon. Fortunately, this is a rare occasion.
Be careful with loans with balloon features. Steer
away from them if you can. If you end up getting a credit line with
a balloon payment, don't let it catch you by surprise.

By Eddie Graveline, Glovedropper.com
Friday brought central valley hockey fans another double header of Monster action. The NAHL team wrapped up a 2-game home series with Wenatchee, while the WSHL team hosted the defending league champions, the Phoenix Polar Bears. Both teams were looking for big wins over highy rated division rivals, and the NAHL team was especially hungry after suffering an embarrassing 6-0 defeat the night before.
From the outset, it was clear that the NAHL team showed up with a lot more fire than they had on Thursday night. They were skating a lot harder and, because of that, putting more pressure on Wenatchee. The Wild took a 1-0 lead in the first period, but it was more bad luck than bad play for the Monsters. One of the Wenatchee players tried to center the puck from behind the Monster net and it ended up going off of a Monster player's stick and right into the net past an unsuspecting Tom Conlin.
Conlin continued to backstop the Monsters' effort with solid play in net throughout the second period. He made several big saves that kept the game close. The Monsters rewarded his effort by scoring 5:19 into the period and bringing it back even. Jordan Lovick knocked it in, while Lucas Whelan got the assist. The Monsters came close a few more times in the period, but they entered the second intermission still tied 1-1.
The Monsters didn't lose any steam during the intermission and came out pressing in the third period. Derek Sutliffe scored from right in front of the net 8:14 into the period on a play set up by Ethan Scherer and Thomas Freeman. It was a good, hard-work goal and proved to be the game-winner. Wenatchee pushed hard, but Conlin continued to make good saves and the Monsters back-checked and blocked shots in front of him. Jeff Anderson deserves some big props for laying down in front of a big point shot, sacrificing his body to preserve the lead. At the end, the Monsters outshot Wenatchee 26-21.
For obvious reasons, the coaches' room was a much more relaxed and upbeat place after the game. "We had a great response after last night's loss," Head Coach Eric Ballard said. "This shows that if we play a full sixty minutes of hockey, we can beat any team in this league."
True that.
WSHL Monsters fall 4-1 to Phoenix
The Monsters' WSHL team faced a very tough opponent in the Phoenix Polar Bears on Friday afternoon. Phoenix is a notoriously slow starting team, but they typically add personnel and start playing very solid hockey after the new year. That certainly seems to be the case again this year, as the Polar Bears picked up a big road win. It wasn't for lack of effort on the Monsters' parts. They out-shot Phoenix 37-28, but Jason Beisinger was the only Fresno player able to put one in the back of the net. The good news for the WSHL team is that they have two more games against Phoenix this weekend. They play at 4:30 PM Saturday and 10 AM Sunday at Gateway Ice Center.

Dennis Gonzįlez's Spirit Meridian: Dust
Dennis Gonzįlez's Spirit Meridian
Idle Wild (Clean Feed 0035)
Dennis Gonzalez (trumpet), Oliver Lake (alto sax),
Ken Filiano (bass), Michael T.A. Thompson (drums).
Composed by Dennis Gonzįlez.
Recorded: New York, 2005
Rating: 87/100 (learn more)
Dallas and Ft. Worth are about 35 miles apart. Both have a history of producing great jazz artists. Dallas gave us David "Fathead" Newman and James Clay. Ft. Worth was home to Ornette Coleman, Dewey Redman and Charles Moffett. It's as if Dallas got the straight-ahead cats, while Ft. Worth produced the free jazzers. Dennis Gonzįlez does his best to preserve that legacy on the one hand and counter it on the other. A native of Dallas, the 54-year-old trumpeter has spent the last 30+ years playing with some of the world's finest free jazz musicians (Charles Brackeen, Frank Lowe, Andrew Cyrille, among others), building a substantial body of work along the way.
"Dust" presents Gonzįlez in the company of a quasi-legend: alto saxophonist Oliver Lake, co-founder of the World Saxophone Quartet, and long one of the most admired alto saxophonists in jazz. Gonzįlez and Lake are joined by New Yorkers Ken Filiano on bass and Michael T.A. Thompson on drums. This tune's repetitive, singsong theme is nothing special, but the song does provide a kind of structurally nebulous framework that allows Lake the near-total freedom he seems to crave. Never an especially lyrical player, Lake's solo here is typically quick and sinuous—scribbles on a canvas, varying in density from pointillist flecks to broad splashes of pigment. Gonzįlez, on the other hand, is a more tuneful improviser. His line meanders, but is effective in its way. The dynamic Thompson maintains a lively discourse with his fellow improvisers. He's an exciting yet nuanced player. Filiano fills the space between Thompson and the horns most ingeniously, and his redoubtable sense of form grounds the performance. This is a quality effort, made all the more valuable by the presence of an all-time great.

MCP73 is NVIDIA's headline integrated graphics chipset for Intel in 2007. It will come in no less than three flavors. The main chipset, dubbed MCP73P, is a 1333MHz front-side bus chipset. A cut down version of the same chipset, dubbed MCP73PV, will only feature a 1066MHz FSB. Our sources would not reveal the third chipset, although is it likely a derivative that does not feature integrated graphics.
NVIDIA would not disclose to DailyTech which GPU the core utilizes, but a low end G70 core is likely the best candidate. MCP73 IGP will feature integrated HDMI and HDCP support.

evening bat (Nycticeius humeralis humeralis)
This is a rather small brown bat with short, sparse, dull brown fur. The average total length is 75-105 mm, and the weight 5-6 grams or 1/4-1/3 ounce. This species resembles a small big brown bat. The usual litter size is two young that are born in sex-segregated nursery colonies of up to several hundred in May and June. This species inhabits buildings, and tree cavities in the summer. It emerges to forage early. They are slow, with steady flight often higher in evening than later night. They are not a cave user, but individuals sometimes swarm by entrances with other species. The winter habitat is unsure. The population in one study had an average 2 year life span although several over 5 years were found.
The evening bats are known only from the eastern part of Virginia in the Coastal Plain and lower Piedmont Provinces, but further collection may show it to occur in the lower southwestern counties. They are suspected of migrating south but winter roosts are unknown. They use manmade structures and abandoned tree holes as roosts during the summer.
This bat is an insectivore and is known to eat a number of pest species while foraging over open fields. They start foraging about 1/2 hour before dusk.

At Lamar advertising, we strive to generate the best ideas for our out-of-home clients. Especially in digital, there are always new and exciting technologies explored as potential methods to promote a brand or message. The cool thing about digital advertising is that a viewer can interact or engage with advertisements through outlets, such as Facebook or Twitter. This engagement ultimately helps retain brand images and helps a customer feel part of a product or company. However, this out of home interaction is not just limited to social media and billboards.
For example, Coca-Cola has creative ways to turn simple out of home displays into great interactive experiences. Called "open happiness," Coca-cola created a campaign that turned grabbing a coke from the vending machine into an interactive and engaging task. Since the start of the campaign in 2009, Coke unveiled various machines, including the hug machine, where customers had to hug the vending machine for a coke. Additionally, using webcams on Valentine's Day, couples had to show a gesture of affection to receive cokes for two.
In December 2012, Coke released a teaser for a new project. The brand's new idea uses webcams to connect various vending machines throughout different countries. The idea is for consumers to share a coke together. To do this, the consumers must virtually join hands and trace shapes together to receive their respective cokes.
The cool thing about our job in digital is that innovation is endless. There is always a new technology to explore and a new way to connect with customers, whether it be in billboard or vending machine form. Below are just a few video examples of the vending machines at work.

About Southridge Minerals, Inc. (SRGE)
Southridge Minerals, Inc. is a U.S.-based mineral exploration company dedicated to acquiring and developing mineral resources in geologically permissible and politically stable areas of the world.
