Update, 3:15 p.m. EST: According to Celebrity Cruises, the number of ill passengers suffering from gastrointestinal illness has dropped to 338. A Celebrity spokeswoman confirmed that CDC inspectors will be boarding Celebrity Mercury in Charleston on Friday -- standard protocol for a ship with seriously elevated cases of gastrointestinal illness.
(12:05 p.m. EST) -- Celebrity Cruises says a massive outbreak of gastrointestinal illness on Celebrity Mercury has left 419 of the ship's 1,838 passengers -- or almost 23 percent -- ill.
Celebrity Mercury is in the midst of an 11-night Caribbean cruise that departed from Charleston on February 15. The ship is due to arrive back in Charleston this Friday.
According to a statement from the line, sick passengers "are responding well to over-the-counter medication being administered onboard the ship." Symptoms of gastrointestinal illness typically include vomiting and diarrhea.
To better assist the medical team already onboard, an additional doctor and two nurses joined the ship yesterday in Tortola; the hired help will stay onboard for the remainder of the cruise.
Celebrity spokesperson Cynthia Martinez tells us that passengers who were quarantined -- standard protocol when dealing with gastro outbreaks -- will be compensated for each day spent in isolation. Compensation is given in the form of an "future cruise certificate," based on the number of days a passenger is isolated divided by the total cruise fare paid.
Martinez adds that the outbreak isn't expected to have an impact on the next cruise, which is scheduled to depart from Charleston on Friday.
The CDC investigates whenever more than 2 percent of people on a particular ship fall ill, to determine if Norovirus is at play.
Stay tuned.

Domonic Brown, the 23-year old outfielder who was named the fourth best prospect in all of baseball by MLB.com earlier this year, is challenging the thought of beginning the year in right field with the Phillies.
Brown finished the final months of 2010 with the Phillies and hit .125 over his last 16 at-bats, which was cause for concern. Since Brown missed out on much needed at-bats riding the bench with the Phillies, it was decided that he would be sent to the Dominican Winter League to get in some of those lost at-bats.
However, Brown would have a disappointingly short stint in the Dominican League, hitting .069 over nine games before coming back to the United States early. This caused some panic, but it was announced that Brown was fatigued.
After getting the rest needed, Brown continues to struggle at the plate going 0-for-12 in the first four games of spring training for the Phillies. Yes, it is early, but also alarming is his strikeout rate. Out of those 12 plate appearances, eight of them ended with Brown striking out.
The Phillies' GM Ruben Amaro Jr. voiced his opinion on Brown late in the offseason, saying that Brown should start the 2011 season with the IronPigs. Brown's recent performances only gives Amaro Jr. more reason to have the prospect in Triple-A come April.
With capable outfielders in Ben Fransisco and Ross Gload, the Phillies should keep Brown with the IronPigs at least through July, if not the entire season, to help him develop. The Phillies hitting coach Greg Gross has been working with Brown to lower his hands, but Brown has yet to succeed in finding the perfect spot. The time in the Lehigh Valley would allow Brown to not only work on hand placement but his stride and timing as well, which have also been thrown out of whack in the past year.

If the explosion of hearts and flowers in every grocery and big box store in the Huntsville area hasn't tipped you off, yet, Valentine's Day is nearly here. Whether you face it with the excitement of a new romance or the dread of fighting other desperate parents for the last Fun Dip Valentine on the candy aisle at Kroger, the celebration of romance with all of its trappings gives us another excuse to consider what to wear.
Your approach to the night may vary, but whatever your plans, or who you celebrate Valentines with, it's lovely to look and feel fabulous-- especially in February. While you might be of a mind to run out and buy something brand spanking new for the occasion, time and experience make most of us a little wary of ensembles meant for one night only—even underpinnings. So, consider the following combinations, most of which are based on favorite go-to pieces already in your closet.

Valentine's 2013: Where to wear it
Sometimes you want to skip the crowds and just stay in. Whether that entails cookie dough, Doritos and Casablanca or a candlelit meal of Stracatto al Chianti, and a nice bottle of Toscana, a pretty slip dress makes a fetching combination with a cozy sweater and an edgy pendant. Shoes are obviously optional, but a thigh-high sock adds chalet-inspired sex appeal.

Valentine's 2013: Where to wear it
Maybe for you, Valentine's is a time to celebrate the people you love and rely on the most. A dinner with your best buds at a casual spot (followed up by a few beers perhaps) calls for a more relaxed approach. A favorite pair of dark jeans is sharpened up with a bold blazer and a very sexy pair of heels. If a floral blazer is just too much, add a bright statement necklace with your favorite navy workweek staple. Either way--Voila! Instant insouciance!
Equally acceptable if you and your significant other are heading out for burgers and beers at Drake's. After all you fell in love because you were the "girl next door."

The market grinned big time on Friday, but can it bear it?
This incentive seems... somewhat askew.
These 19 charts from the St. Louis Federal Reserve illustrate the present economic situation in the U.S.
Feel broke yet? No? This might help: The Congressional Budget Office 2011 Budget and Economic Outlook forecasts the budget deficit to increase to $1.5 trillion this year.
Although the United States does not have the same fiscal problems as Greece, there are still issues of concern.
He's a "risk manager" for Freddie Mac. He's trying to keep the economy going. But he can't do it alone.
Unless policymakers restrain the growth of spending, increase revenues significantly as a share of GDP, or adopt some combination of those two approaches, growing budget deficits will cause debt to rise to unsupportable levels.

Roger Moore, the former James Bond, stars in this Hallmark original as the Duke of Castlebury Hall. We are actually pretty convinced that Moore isn't the lead character in the made for, as it centers on an aunt who becomes guardian to her niece and nephew. Moore is the grandfather who hasn't really been around but decides to change his ways and invite the family out for the holidays. We, naturally, imagine that the reason he hasn't been around is because he's been off saving the world from any number of evildoers and fending off sharks with lasers. But, wherever he's been, he's back now and everyone will learn a valuable lesson about the importance of family now that he's back.

I. Purpose of computing resources
The purpose of the computing resources (q.v.) at Heidelberg University is to further the institutional mission of the University. By using one of the University's computing resources, the user is agreeing to adhere to and be bound by the principles and conditions outlined below.
II. Conditions of use
The computing resources of Heidelberg University are available for use by University students, faculty, staff and other members of the Heidelberg community. Persons who are not affiliated with the University should not seek to use these resources. [footnote]
Computing resources at Heidelberg are intended to be used for educational purposes and to carry out the legitimate business of the University. Appropriate uses of these resources include instruction, independent study, authorized and independent research and the official work of University offices, departments and recognized student and campus organizations. These resources may not be used by members of the University community for commercial purpose or personal financial gain.
All use of campus computing resources must be in accordance with the above guidelines; users must also adhere to the University's computing ethics code outlined below.
III. Computing ethics code
Computing resources at Heidelberg are shared by the entire University community. Sharing of these resources means sharing of responsibility and the exercise of good judgment. Users are expected to exercise responsible, ethical behavior when using the computing resources of the University. Such behavior includes the following.
A. Use of authorized resources only
Members of the University community must only use those computing resources and computer accounts which have been authorized for their use by the University. Each user is responsible for all activities which take place associated with the use of his or her account(s). Resources may be used only for their authorized purpose, in a manner consistent with the mission of the institution.
Users must not under any circumstances attempt to use a computer account or computer resource for which they have not been granted access. The use of or attempt to access unauthorized computing resources is prohibited.
B. Maintenance of resource integrity
Members of the University community to whom authorized facility access or access to specific computer accounts has been granted may not authorize others to use those accounts or resources for any reason. It is expected that authorized users will take all necessary precautions (e.g. regular password maintenance, file protection measures and disconnection from accounts or resources when not in use) to prevent unauthorized resource access.
The University reserves the right to prohibit specific network applications which could have a detrimental effect on the network's health, performance or ability to meet the needs of all network users. This includes, but is not limited to, certain types of peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing and other similar activity.
Attempts to compromise the security or negatively impact the performance of any University computing resource or to access any unauthorized data on such resources are prohibited. "Computing resource" refers not only to computer hardware and software, but to the computer network as well. The University reserves the right to utilize network scanning, security and vulnerability analysis tools at any time to help protect the integrity of the network.
C. Copyright and license compliance
Members of the University community are expected to abide by all laws of national and international copyright and software license when using campus computing resources.
Some software programs and other computer media are protected by copyright and other laws, including but not limited to software license agreements and contractual licensing. Users may not copy, attempt to copy, distribute, attempt to distribute or plagiarize copyrighted or licensed resources in violation of University licenses and contractual agreements or copyright law.
Downloading and other duplication of copyrighted materials is legal only with the permission of (a) the actual copyright owner, or (b) a legitimate claim of "fair use." Therefore, it is the University's policy that music and/or video files may not be downloaded or otherwise copied from the Internet illegally.
D. Appropriate use and computing etiquette
Users may not use computing resources irresponsibly or in an attempt to needlessly affect the work of others. Electronic mail and other programs designed to facilitate communication should be used courteously; unsolicited, annoying or obscene messages should not be sent to users of the University's systems or of any other computing network.
Shared resources, such as disk space, printing devices, paper and processing units, are limited. Users are expected to keep their use of such items within reasonable limits.
In terms of disk space, users should limit the size of the data they accumulate on shared systems. When system managers request that unnecessary data be removed, compliance is expected. Users who subscribe to electronic discussion lists or email services which allow the accumulation of large volumes of mail should unsubscribe from such lists or stop their service when they will be unable to login for long periods of time (e.g. vacations).
Shared printing resources are to be used courteously; large printouts of unnecessary material, or repeated printing of materials such as rough drafts and electronic mail messages, are to be avoided. The duplication process is best served by photocopy machines and offset presses, not computer printers.
Users who have been granted access to timesharing processors are expected to be conscientious in their use of those resources; intentional attempts to degrade the performance of a system or to deprive others of system resources or facility access will not be tolerated.
When users attempt to access computing networks external to Heidelberg University, they may do so only in compliance with the acceptable use policies of those networks and any applicable local, state, and federal laws.
IV. Violations of policy
Any violations of the conditions of use or computing ethics code described above may be grounds for discipline as specified in the University code of conduct and/or prosecution as permitted under local, state and federal laws.
V. Limit of liability
Heidelberg University makes no representations concerning the availability of service of its computing resources, the privacy of material on those resources or the integrity or retrievability of material placed on those resources. Heidelberg University is not responsible for any damages resulting from the receipt and/or transmission of any electronic information. The University reserves the right to collect, process and retain appropriate information pertaining to the users, usage, integrity and security of its computing resources.
The University reserves the right to change or amend this statement of computing and network policy at any time.
VI.Terms and definitions
computing resource
The term computing resource refers to any portion or whole component(s) of (a) the Heidelberg University computing centers; (b) hardware, software or peripheral devices belonging to the University or connected to a University network; (c) data and data storage facilities maintained or owned by the University or connected to a University network; and (d) networking devices or transmission media owned or operated by the University.
[1] This clause does not preclude the ability to access resources that Heidelberg has made publicly available through means such as the Internet.

Blizzard's on-going issues with Diablo III are a big talking point amongst avid fans of the game, and the tech/gaming worlds in general because of its lack of offline mode. But now there's an interview between Rock Paper Shotgun and Lead Designer, Kevin Martens, who has some interesting things to say:
I don't think people necessarily remember how mad they were that they had an offline mode and online mode in Diablo II. People will be like, 'I wasn't mad!' But I was there at the time, and then I studied this for a living. It sucks when your friend or brother is online and he wants to join this game, but you realize you're an offline character and he's an online character, and there's no way to transfer over because offline characters can be hacked and hex-edited to hell and back, right?
This looks to be the reasoning behind the developer not pushing offline mode into Diablo III, but I'm sure they could find a way. What do you think? Are you a Diablo III player who wishes there was an offline mode? Let us know in the comments.

They may have won plenty of respect but their World Cup hopes are over as Australia fell to a shattering 3-2 loss to Netherlands in Porto Allegre on Wednesday afternoon.
After a horrible start in their match against Chile all eyes were on the Socceroos early and they showed a much improved effort as they dominated the opening stages, passing the ball around with confidence early on.
In the 19th minute, after a slow start, Holland broke through as Arjen Robben beat Alex Wilkinson, allowing him to make a powerful run and shot low and hard leaving Mat Ryan with no chance.
But that lead was incredibly short lived as Tim Cahill scored perhaps the most phenomenal goal of his career as he hit a volley over his shoulder and over the goalkeeper's head for a real contender for goal of the tournament to pull Australia level just one minute later.
Australia continued on in the second half and as the half started to draw to a close Australia could very well have made it two as Matthew Leckie sent in a ball for Mark Bresciano who could only send his effort over the bar.
The Socceroos continued to be the stronger side and they continued to pressure as Matthew Spiranoic was put in space on a set-piece but couldn't get his shot on target.
Tommy Oar had the last chance of the half as he was able to get through the Dutch defense but was denied as his shot was blocked, allowing Holland to clear.
Australia started the second half under pressure, but after Oliver Bozanic came on in the 50th minute the match turned, and Bozanic forced a handball to earn a penalty.
That allowed captain MIle Jedinak to step up and hit a penalty that sent the keeper the wrong way to give Australia a stunning 2-1 lead.
Australia probably should have had three as some bad Dutch defending allowed Cahill to send a ball over the top for Matt McKay, but it was over hit, sending McKay wide, making life difficult for him.
But for Australia missing out on that chance proved costly, as minutes later Australia were made to play as Robin van Persie found space in the box and shot, finding an equalizer after a Ryan error.
Tommy Oar was left wide open in the box and had a golden opportunity to score but was denied as he made a poor decision, crossing in, letting Holland off the hook.
Holland made Australia pay instantly, as they ran down the field and had Memphis Depay hit a swerving shot, that caught Ryan out and put Holland back in front.
Holland tried to find some goals late on as Australia tired, but some good goalkeeping from Ryan kept them out, unfortunately the Socceroos couldn't find another goal.
Australia fell but they won a lot of foreign fans, with the American North American Soccer League tweeting after the match "If you're not Dutch and your heart's not broken, you don't have a heart." It will be scant consolation for Australia but the future definitely looks bright for the Socceroos, who still lead Spain.

Interpreting serves as a medium for research and debate on all aspects of interpreting, in its various modes, modalities (spoken and signed) and settings (conferences, media, courtroom, healthcare and others). Striving to promote our understanding of the socio-cultural, cognitive and linguistic dimensions of interpreting as an activity and process, the journal covers theoretical and methodological concerns, explores the history and professional ecology of interpreting and its role in society, and addresses current issues in professional practice and training.
Interpreting encourages cross-disciplinary inquiry from such fields as anthropology, cognitive science, cultural studies, discourse analysis, language planning, linguistics, neurolinguistics, psychology and sociology, as well as translation studies.
Interpreting publishes original articles, reports, discussions and book reviews.

One of the nice things about living in the Annapolis Royal region is that we get to share our community with nature. From where I work at the O'Dell House Museum, I have been able to see bald eagles, white tailed deer, foxes, a wide variety of sea ducks and even porpoise. Today, I had a new type of visitor.
When I arrived at the museum today, I quickly made a trip to the Farmers Market to get some supplies for the opening of our Summer Bride Exhibit. When I came back to the museum, I met one of our volunteers who asked me if I had seen the owl yet. I was led to the back of the property where a juvenile great horned owl was perched in a poplar tree. Apparently one of our neighbours had woken up to the sound of crows fussing about some sort of intruder. When he got up to see what was upsetting them he saw the owl. After a bit of debate and a bit of online searching (my bird field guides are usually kept at home) we decided that it was a juvenile great horned.
The owl actually spent most of the day sitting in the poplar trees at the back of the museum. Since owls are nocturnal he was probably trying to get a bit of sleep. Sadly to other birds were not giving him much help. When he got tired of being harassed by the crows and grackles he would fly to another branch where he could rest for about five minutes before he was pestered again. I hope that he was able to get enough sleep that he will come back to the museum again.
All for now,

You're not even 40 weeks yet. If anyone is talking to you about induction already, they deserve to be slapped. You are NOT overdue until you hit 42 weeks. Insist on monitoring and a hands-off approach. Without a valid medical reason, I would not agree to an induction. (I say this as someone who actually WAS induced, due to preeclampsia.) There are valid reasons for induction. Simply hitting 40 weeks isn't one.posted 09/14/2010 by SabraO
I have had 4 children and three needed to be induced....as far as I know, and from all I have tried, there is not really anything that you can do to expedite the process. My grandmother will swear by drinking castor oil...but other than that it is a waiting game of nature.posted 09/14/2010 by soon2bmomX5

For designers there are many places to sell their designs online. While some designers have huge success online, there are many talented ones that just don't get to the sales numbers they deserve. The reason is that these designers might not be aware of what works and what doesn't when selling through online marketplaces.
If you're a web designer or graphic designer you can of course set up your own website and start selling your products on your own site. But you might be better off with established selling platforms by setting up your store in an online marketplace that specializes in such services.
These marketplaces usually have established admin practices and do most of the marketing for you, so that you can concentrate on the making and selling, compared to selling through your own website. Many designers and crafts people actually use their individual shop or profile as their main website, as it saves so much time and money. Below you will find 8 killer tips by Yamini Gautam from digital design marketplace Luvly.co to increase your sales:
- Keep SEO in mind when writing product descriptions: Use the right kind of SEO tags and keywords in your product description to ensure you get the right kind of traffic, instead of generic visitors who'll end up bouncing off to another page in a couple of seconds.You don't need to be an SEO expert to get the basics right. This is an excellent SEO guide for beginners.
- 2 Previews matter, choose them carefully: Poor photography and imagery can be devastating. If someone sees your work in a bad light they won't take the time to look again. With photographs remember that 'first impressions count'. Keep in mind you don't violate any copyrights, such as Amazon's controversial photo patent.
- 3 Create partnerships: Work with other like-minded people or organizations to do joint projects. Work together to share your story, you'll reach more people that way. Have you thought about joint promotions like giving away a coupon from a shop that your customers will like and your partner shop does the same for you?
- 4Share your shop links online: (on the website, on SoMe channels): While it is advisable to set up your online presence on most of the popular channels (i.e. FB, Twitter, G+, Linked IN etc), depending on your niche, one social media network may work better than other. It may be after all better to find which channel works best for you and focus your time and energy on one or two channels that bring maximum results, rather than spreading yourself too thinly.
- Keep your shop populated: Add items regularly and keep updating your shop. Make sure to add designs or products corresponding to current festivals or season. At Luvly we always see sales increase around events like Valentine's and Mother's Day. Create themed items and release them timely on the right date, when people start looking for items to celebrate these days.
- Be generous with freebies and giveaways:Make sure to give freebies now and then to maintain loyal customers and to attract new customers. If you're a graphic designer, don't forget it costs you nothing to give your own designs away!
- Create a niche. Think about niche markets as becoming a bigger fish in a smaller pond– you need to be known for something first, so that people start recognizing you and recommending you. As it's becoming more and more difficult to stand out of the crowd, really think about creating your own niche.
Have a personal website:Even if you have set up an online shop on a heavy traffic website and enjoy great engagement on your social media channels, it is still essential to have your own website or a blog at the least. Having your own little web space gives you space to add a personalized touch to your product and services. You should also utilize your blog for strengthening the search engine presence that you may not be able to do through the online shop on an established platform.

Five fashion tips for teachers
Orene Kearn, image consultant
By Sherry Posnick-Goodwin
Julie Chavez, Dan Liner, Angela Data, Chantaine Fauntleroy
Can you look and feel great for $200 or less? We challenged fashionista Orene Kearn, who successfully found outfits — and accessories — to fit the individual personalities, teaching styles and body types of four CTA members.
"To start with, I asked them their likes, dislikes, interests and teaching approach," says Kearn, a certified image consultant (www.orene.net). "I wanted them to take away more than just an outfit from this experience. I wanted them to take away knowledge about the kinds of styles that work well for each one of them. I wanted them to feel good about themselves, and I wanted their outside to match how wonderful they are on the inside. I think that was accomplished."
So do we, and here's a look at the Fab Four in their outfits, most of which were purchased on sale.
Angela Data
Pomeroy Elementary School, United Teachers of Santa Clara
"How old are you?" is a question this first-grade teacher is constantly asked by people who think she looks much too young to be a teacher. Angela Data takes it in stride, even though she's been teaching six years. Through this CTA project, she discovered her clothing makes her look like a teenager; she usually wears slacks and a V-neck shirt. She describes her teaching style as "fun, inventive and always trying new things," and this attitude is reflected in her outfit selection, which is classic, professional, comfortable and whimsical — a white T-shirt with a classic navy blazer with wide polka-dot cuffs just for fun. She also got a navy shirt for mix 'n match. "This will make a more professional impression on parents — and I can also sit down on the carpet and move around with the kids," she says.
Data goes grown-up:
I never would have thought…
that taupe pants and a navy jacket would go together. But Orene said it would look good, so I went for it. It makes me want to change things up colorwise.
I like this look because…
it's easy and comfortable. It's professional and also fun; I love the polka dots and jewelry! I feel like I'm not too much out of my comfort zone, but it's different enough to be a change.
It's challenging to dress for the classroom…
because you can't help kids tie their shoes or sit on the carpet with them if you are wearing a short skirt. You are always bending over and have to watch that cleavage doesn't show.
One thing I learned…
is that I shouldn't wear big shirts. My body is a kind of an hourglass shape and I have wide shoulders, so things should be tighter in the center for a more flattering look.
I'm going to wear this outfit…
for parent-teacher conferences. I'm hoping, in these clothes, nobody will ask me how old I am.
The clothes…
Marshalls: jacket ($24.99); white shirt ($9.99); pants ($19.99) by Missy; shoes ($39.99) by Tahari. Target: bracelet ($14.99); necklace ($24.99).
Julie Chavez
Cesar Chavez Elementary, United Educators of San Francisco
A special education teacher for K-5 students with mild to moderate disabilities, Julie Chavez is a nurturer by nature, who gives students encouragement and praise to boost their confidence. Putting others first means this teacher doesn't always take time for herself. She typically shows up for work in jeans, a T-shirt and tennis shoes. She was a little nervous about finding plus-size fashions that would be comfortable, flattering and stylish, and was pleasantly surprised that the diagonal, tiered, form-fitting top was more flattering than the tunic-style blouses she usually wears. The cutaway jacket offers a dressier look. The black pants, she says, are stretchy and as comfortable as jeans.
Chavez discovers her professional side:
One of the things I realized…
is that I can be myself and not compromise who I am — and I can still dress professionally.
I also learned…
that sometimes it pays to invest in a few quality pieces, like this jacket, which goes with everything.
I never would have…
selected this outfit for myself. I usually wear longer, looser tops. But the diagonal pattern is very flattering and offers coverage without adding volume.
I'm going to wear my new outfit on…
the first day of school. I can hardly wait.
When I wear this outfit, my students will…
see me as the professional that I am. They'll see a change in me. I have a new perspective now.
Macy's: shirt ($42) and pants ($44.98) by Alfani; jacket ($79.60) by INC.
Dan Liner
Brittan Acres Elementary School, San Carlos Teachers Association
"I like learning to be fun — but structured — with lots of movement and physical activity," says Dan Liner, a second-grade teacher and the outgoing president of the San Carlos Teachers Association. "My usual work wardrobe is kind of casual; I wear short-sleeved collared shirts and dress jeans — not faded — and athletic shoes. I do a lot of yard duty, and it's not a glamorous setting." Liner was looking for something more professional that he could wear for Back-to-School Night or to Open House, and chose a navy shirt with fine black pinstripes and gray slacks with black loafers. "It's kind of classic, a clean and crisp look, which suits me," he says. "I can wear this for school events attended by parents, as well as to school board meetings where the union is represented."
Liner talks teacher clothes:
It can be a challenge shopping…
since teachers are very conscious of cost. We are not well-paid professionals, even though we are very highly trained professionals.
In the classroom…
you shouldn't wear white. It's just not sensible. Sometimes you have to decide if your clothes can take paint, ink, markers or glue.
I learned from this experience that…
some of the nicer stores like Macy's have good value — especially when they have a sale.
being a model is work, too! But it was great to shop with someone who does it for a living.
I think this outfit…
makes me look professional. When I wear this, people are going to know I mean business.
Macy's: shirt ($31.99) and pants ($44) by Calvin Klein; shoes ($44) by Dress Shoes for Men; belt ($25.50) by Perry Ellis.
Chantaine Fauntleroy
Bret Harte Middle School, Hayward Education Association
Sure, she's a bit of a "drill sergeant," but her PE classes have 50 students, so she runs a tight ship. "I'm always blowing the whistle," Chantaine Fauntleroy admits. "But I'm also fun-loving and caring, and I am definitely approachable." Typical work attire is a sweatshirt or a T-shirt with jeans or sweat pants. Her biggest challenge in clothes shopping: She is petite on top and larger on the bottom, so none of her jeans fit right. They are fine in the waist and saggy on the bottom or vice versa. The solution: Not Your Daughter's Jeans, a bit pricey, but perfect for her physique. Having found the right jeans, says Fauntleroy, was a "miracle" and "life-changing." A colorful green top with ruffles on the shoulder provides balance. The green jacket, cropped at the waist, upgrades casual to business casual.
Fauntleroy dishes on fashion and fit:
The most important thing I learned…
is that skinny jeans don't make everyone look skinny. I've been wearing the wrong jeans all my life.
My new jeans…
are boot-cut — straight-legged, dark denim and tapered for a slimming look. I'm throwing out my old ones.
on the first day of school, when I tell students my expectations of them and explain my grading system and classroom management style.
Teacher fashion is a balancing act…
between looking hip and looking appropriate. I think this outfit is both.
Macy's: pants ($104) by Not Your Daughter's Jeans; top ($13) by Style Company; jacket ($79) by Bar III.

Today is Sunday, and I just found this in my file from last summer — Easter Monday will be one year since we got Digger, our dog.
It was a summer of brilliant sunshine. But I appreciate the relatively gray hue this morning, which is more my preference. The 7:37 a.m. meek glow of sunlight that shown through the crooked blind and dirty windows of my living room convinced me it was time to write again.
Last time, I wrote was the beginning of this summer, and I said that although I am 46, I felt more like the sum of those digits, 10. As I type, I am not using my right ring finger, which is beautifully bandaged. Yesterday a wonderful surgeon removed a ganglion cyst that had developed due to arthritis. That bump had led me to finally go to see a doctor about my swollen middle fingers and crooked pointer and pinky. I am seeing a crooked theme.
Crooked meaning veering off course. I can relate to the song that says, "God bless the broken road that led me straight to you," the Robert Frost poem Two Roads Diverged, and Thoreau's different drummer.
As I type this, I am alternately giving Digger, the dog I got in April, half of my attention. He just plopped at my feet, either chewing his bone or the computer wires (just kidding, that was a one time thing). I could write and write and write about my husband and I having our first dog in 12 years of marriage, but I'm not ready for that yet. For now, I'll just say that this SPCA Australian cattle dog mix was heaven sent to us from my mom who passed away four years ago this September. And we know the correct answer to the "Who rescued who?" bumper sticker we've seen.
Speaking of my mom, there are several reasons that I did not fall apart when she passed. One is just that. She passed. No one knows exactly to where, but wherever, the connection is as strong as when she was earthbound. This type of certainty in the spiritual side of life is how she lived her life on earth, so it is natural to have it carry over. It is human to have questions and doubts. She had them, I have them, and it is comforting that Mother Teresa had them. But, in life and in her passing, the connection, the "coincidences" are too enormous. Over this summer, and on a daily basis, my belief is coming out the clear winner and growing.
Two, as I drove to work my first day back after her passing, I started to feel sad and teary, and I could "hear" her get angry. She put so much work into raising me and knows better than anyone that I can't afford too much dwelling on sadness. She basically communicated to me to knock it off. I knew to listen. An old boyfriend once affectionately dubbed her General Schwarzkopf. The boy didn't stick around, but the name did.
As I looked up how to spell the general's name, I found this quote from him. "Courage brother, do not stumble, though thy path be dark as night: There is a star to guide the humble, trust in God, and do the right. Let the road be dark and dreary and its end far out of sight. Face it bravely, strong or weary. Trust God, and do." This describes how mom faced her multiple myeloma.
And this one about him. "Those on the homefront appreciated his no-nonsense way of handling matters and grew to think of him as a straight-shooter whom they could trust to have an answer for anything." This also describes my mom! Knowing this is why I wish at times that I could call her.
This one feels incredibly personal to share in this on-line forum, but here goes. The last time I saw her, downstairs in a hospital bed in our family living room, as frail and sick as she was, she actually reached out and grabbed my shoulder, smiled, and winked at me.
So, yeah, I still feel 10, like when my husband suggested tonight that we invite his friend Stacy over to teach us how to clip coupons. What grown-up concerns — groceries, finances! My mom kept us well fed with standard healthy meals, Campbell soup, and a well stocked cardboard box of snacks above the dryer. My mom let me be a kid when I was a kid, and stuck by me with all my growing pains well into "adulthood." What more could I want?
I'm 47 now, but don't feel 11. More like 10 and a half.

TC TO JANE WELSH CARLYLE ; 20 August 1842; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18420820-TC-JWC-01; CL 15: 31-33
Chelsea, 20 Augt, 1842—
Just a word, my Dearest, before going out to walk: there will be no means tomorrow.1 We go on quite handsomely here; Helen's lameness mending,—not interfering with the little Cousin's comfort much, or mine at all. She has given up the dressing-gown, I think, of late mornings; but is ever the same cheery little creature in whatever kind of gown.— I am writing, writing; God knows at what precisely! It is terribly difficult to work: my whole soul and body are sunk as in tropical oppression,—no "wish to sew";2 no distinct wish of any kind, but a certain base underhand desire to lie down in everlasting leaden sleep. Yesterday, on sallying out, it was a kind of strange satisfaction, as of surprise, that I could still stand upon my legs. The day before I had not gone out at all; I had worked a while weeding at the Garden: it was the intolerablest day of heat that I remember in this world,—or one of the intolerablest! Jack's thermometer, which I had the curiosity to look at, and compute into Farenheit degrees, after tea, was standing at 84° 4/10; at midnight, it was still above 80°. Mazzini, smoking with me, said such a temperature was reckon3 torrid even in Italy. Happily all that is now gone, and we have instead a blessed gray southwest wind.——— Alas, work cannot be done without difficulty even in Greenland. All work from me is, and has been, as a bridge-building over Chaos; a thing that never was or can be easy; a thing nevertheless which must and shall be done!4—
Yesterday there called, when I was out, that poor brother-in-law of Edinburgh Betty's:5 from Jeannie's account, altho' the man is well enough in his way, I do not think you have missed much. Some goodnatured, but very vulgar-minded purse-proud Mechanic I conjectured him to be: he is gone to Liverpool, to Edinr, and specified no date for returning. In the evening Mrs Jameson6 came; I was out roving far and wide over the grass in Hyde Park: she had not staid long, had left kind messages for you,—congratulations that you were in the country, whither next week she herself was bound. No Letters for us;—tant mieux [so much the better]. A Note from Mrs Sterling to Jeannie about the miserable Dumfries straw.7 Perhaps Jeannie is herself forwarding it to you? If not, I will.— Some nameless hand, not Ballantyne, sends me a new Manchester Paper today. The insurrection continues, the tenth day of it now; I begin really to be anxious about it, and wish it were well over,—that blood be not shed, and seeds of long baleful vengeance sown. A country in a lamentabler state (to my eyes) than ours even now has rarely shewn itself under the sun. We seem to me near anarchies, things nameless,—and a secret voice whispers now and then to me: Thou, behold thou too art of it, thou must be of it! I declare to Heaven I would not have the governing of this England at present for the richest "cream and short-bread" that could be named! Enough of that.
Did I tell you, or did Mrs Buller, that Jane Strachey is about to be married?8 She is with her Mother in Italy at present; but returns under the escort of a Bristol Manufacturer, one Mr Hare I think, who goes out to wed her shortly, or perhaps is already gone. He is wealthy, young,—approved of by the Brother Strachey,9 who told me all this. He, the poor lame Brother Strachey, is no better yet, nor like to be; a most amiable, melancholy object.
Methinks I hear the Stimabile's cough down stairs! At all events paper and time are ended, and I must go. Enjoy your fine green solitudes, and Calthorpe deserted palace, and little games of chess; and be a good lassie, and love me, my own little Jean!— A letter on Monday? Yours ever
No Stimabile down below; nor any Cousin Jeannie even, but a Letter of hers with your address on it: so enough. It strikes three o'clock, as I am Sinner. Adieu, adieu!—

In the quest to land a Big 12 team in the first ever FBS playoff, performance in non-conference games versus teams from the other Big 5 conferences could be a factor for the individual contenders. In MBB, strength of conference is a big deal for landing at large beths, but the FBS playoffs feature only a pre-selected Final Four. Otherwise, it could really just be more of a talker, typically "The SEC and *who* else ...".
Week 1 has West Virginia visiting Alabama as a 26 point road dog, and Okie State hosting reigning National Champion Florida State as 17 point home dogs. Conveniently, following the ISU/NDSU brunch special, these games will be televised as a day night doubleheader on ABC.
Questions for Big 12 Fanatics:
Do either WVU or OSU have a chance to create a little early season pandemonium versus 2 teams many favor to be among the 4 finalists by seasons end?Could the Big 12 champ be seated ahead of either Alabama or Florida St based on a more impressive win versus one of these common opponents?With many prognosticators viewing the Big 12 at a disadvantage without a conference championsh game, does that add some urgency for the WVU and OSU openers to at least be competetive?If, hypothetically, it comes down to the Big 12 vs the B1G for that 4th playoff spot, should non-conference SoS for the conference as a whole be a factor in selecting which conference champion should be admitted?
1. Yes, I think OSU can give FSU a game. WVU is going to be eviscerated by Saban.
2. Yes.
3. Big 5 non-con wins are going to be huge for all involved. For instance, some are already predicting the Oregon-Mich St. game in week 2 as the only chance for the B1G to get into the playoff based off weak non-con.
4. Yes, however not as important in my view as overall SOS which non-con SOS will play a factor in. Undefeated in Big 12 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> undefeated in B1G.
WVU has no chance against Alabama, and when I say no chance I mean no chance. That one will likely be very ugly.
I think Oklahoma State getting a win over FSU would go a huge way towards assuring the Big XII a spot in the playoff. But just playing close is enough to not do any damage (assuming Oklahoma State doesn't win the conference). WVU is going to get a train run on them, though I'd love to see them keep it close or even get a win but then lose their next 11 games.
FSU is the best team in the country. oSu is a middling in this league. No way they beat free shoes u.
I don't think that either team really has a chance to win. I think at least one of the two needs to keep the game somewhat competitive, two blowouts might hurt the BIG XII champion at the end of the year. Unless both OSU and WVU finish in the bottom 3-4 in the conference which might be possible.
Teams with a shot at winning ...
OU beats Tennessee easily
UT plays UCLA tough in Austin at night
K-State will be ready for Auburn in Manhattan on a Thursday night special
KU probably doesn't hang with Duke there
Tech beats Arkansas in Lubbock
ISU always plays the hoax tough
College football is more about motivation than any other widely followed sport. First game of the year on the road against ok state coming off an NC and the whole world telling them how great they are? Give me OK State with that spread, not sure if they'll win but it should be a better game than a typical 17 point spread is.
Famous Jameis will be to much for okie state
Cyclone state
"Some fans show up for big games, our fans show up for every game, Hoiberg said.
FSU has so much more to lose on this one against OSU. I wouldn't be surprised if OSU beats FSU.

Last night, on Saturday, March 1, Examiner.com was on the scene as Supper Suite by STK hosted the Sony Pictures Classics Oscar Nominees Dinner presented by Moet & Chandon. The intimate dinner celebrated the Academy Award Best Lead Actress nominee Cate Blanchett, Best Supporting Actress nominee Sally Hawkins and Best Original Screenplay for "Blue Jasmine." The event also celebrated the Best Adapted Screenplay for "Before Midnight" and Achievements in Costume Design for "The Invisible Woman."
We chatted with Cate Blanchett and Sally Hawkins together at the event. Cate Blanchett looked stunning in a Stella McCartney one shoulder black jumper. She joked with guests mentioning she was going to wear Crocs on the red carpet today. First time Oscar Nominee, Sally Hawkins, brought her parents to the dinner. She looked fabulous in a grey Mulberry dress. Two time Spirit Award nominee, Julie Delpy, wore a sass & bide one piece outfit. She dressed it with a tweed Chanel jacket and Chanel pumps.
What is it that makes this year at The Oscars different than any other year whether it is a first nomination or a follow-up?
Cate Blanchett: It has been so nice to be doing this together. It was such an exquisite pleasure working with you. And to go through this journey together this year has been special.
Sally Hawkins: It is really nice. It has been amazing. I have never experienced The Oscars and to be here with you is wonderful.
Richard Linklater
What is like to be experiencing The Oscars this way?
Richard Linklater: I think it is better to be experiencing it this way than to never be able to experience it. For us it symbolizes the last stop of the film. It is a big final party after the journey.
The intimate and private dinner was lovely. Flowing Moet & Chandon champagne all night long kept the conversations lively at the tables. Sony made guests feel like family as they thanked them for their hard work and contributions to the company. The nominees were highly regarded and a moment was even taken to remember the great Phillip Seymour Hoffman by Co-Presidents and Co-Founders of Sony Pictures Classics, Tom Bernard and Michael Barker. The food was incredible and guests enjoyed scrumptious salads and savory steak curated by Executive Chef Robert Liberato. Singer Olivia Somerlyn gave a special acoustic performance of U2's "Ordinary Love" during the fantastic dinner.
"I am so excited to be singing tonight. I have performed in front of huge crowds, but I think this small dinner with all of these special guests is going to mean just as much," Olivia told Examiner.com exclusively.
Cate Blanchett was last to leave and took so much of her precious time thanking all the guests for their support. At the end of the evening, STK Pastry Chef, Brigette Contreras, presented specialty Blue Jasmine Macaroons to Cate Blanchett who was delighted to try more than one.
Notable guests in attendance included Cate Blanchett, Sally Hawkins, Julie Delpy, Co-Presidents and Co-Founders of Sony Pictures Classics, Tom Bernard and Michael Barker and singer Olivia Somerlyn. The event was also presented by FIJI Water.

Increasing the biological stability profile of a new chemical entity, UPEI-104, and potential use as a neuroprotectant against reperfusion-injury
Previous work in our laboratory demonstrated the utility of synthetic combinations of two naturally occurring, biologically active compounds. In particular, we combined two known anti-oxidant compounds, lipoic acid and apocynin, covalently linked via an ester bond (named UPEI-100). In an animal mode...
The present study investigates the neuroprotective effects of Berberis vulgaris and Picrorhiza kurroa in a rodent model of cerebral ischemia - reperfusion. Study Design: Rats were pretreated with Berberis vulgaris, Picrorhiza kurroa or vehicle 30 minutes prior to cerebral ischemia and re...
UPEI-300, A Conjugate Of Lipoic Acid And Edaravone, Mediates Neuroprotection In Ischemia/Reperfusion
Edaravone, an electron spin trapper with radical scavenging activity, has been shown to be effective in reducing infarct volume in humans following ischemic stroke. However, concerns of edaravone-induced renal toxicity have limited its clinical adoption. Previous work has demonstrated that edaravone...
Liuwei Dihuang, a traditional Chinese herbal formula, suppresses chronic inflammation and oxidative stress in obese rats
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress, and adipokine-ameliorating effects of Liuwei Dihuang (LWDH), a traditional Chinese herbal formula, in obese rats. METHODS: After 2 weeks of acclimation with free access to regular rodent chow and water, obese-prone-caesarean-...
The pregnancy hormone relaxin protects tissue from ischemic damage. The ability of relaxin-3, a relaxin paralog, to do so has not been explored. The cerebral expression of these peptides and their receptors make them logical targets for study in the ischemic brain. We assessed relaxin peptide-mediat...
Co-administration of Resveratrol and Lipoic acid, or their synthetic combination, enhances neuroprotection in a rat model of ischemia/reperfusion
The present study demonstrates the benefits of combinatorial antioxidant therapy in the treatment of ischemic stroke. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were anaesthetised and the middle cerebral artery (MCA) was occluded for 30 minutes followed by 5.5 hours of reperfusion. Pretreatment with resveratrol 30 mi...
The present application relates to novel apocynin-lopioc acid covalent conjugates, compositions comprising these compounds and their use, in particular for the treatment of diseases, disorders or conditions that are mediated by oxidative stress. In particular, the present application includes compou...
Resveratrol, a dietary polyphenol with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, has been shown to provide neuroprotection in models of ischemia. However, the mechanism of action of resveratrol-induced neuroprotection remains unclear. Previous work in our laboratory has provided evidence that acut...
Obesity has become an increasingly common health condition over the last several decades. It has been estimated that this largely preventable disease affects over one billion people worldwide and that its prevalence will have doubled by the year 2030. Currently, obesity is the leading cause of preve...
The present study was aimed at investigating the efficacy and mechanism(s) of action of a Chinese herbal formulation, Liuwei Dihuang (LWDH), as a prospective natural weight-lowering product. Following a 2-week acclimation period, 48 obesity-prone (OP-CD) rats were divided into 4 groups (n=12 each). ...
Co-administration of apocynin with lipoic acid enhances neuroprotection in a rat model of ischemia/reperfusion
Apocynin is a well-known NADPH-oxidase inhibitor currently being investigated for its potential therapeutic use in patients with cardiovascular disease, such as occlusive stroke. However, the use of apocynin as a potential neuroprotective agent has come under criticism due to a narrow experimental t...
UPEI-100, a conjugate of lipoic acid and apocynin, mediates neuroprotection in a rat model of ischemia/reperfusion
Previous work in our laboratory has provided evidence that preadministration of apocynin and lipoic acid at subthreshold levels for neuroprotection enhanced the neuroprotective capacity when injected in combination. Therefore, the present investigation wa...
After ischemic stroke, early thrombolytic therapy to reestablish tissue perfusion improves outcome but triggers a cascade of deleterious cellular and molecular events. Using a collaborative approach, our groups examined the effects of guanosine (Guo) in response to ischemic reperfusion injury in vit...
Background. Lipoic acid (LA), which has significant antioxidant properties, may also function as a potent neuroprotectant. The synthetic compounds INV-155, INV-157, INV-159, and INV-161 are physiochemical combinations of lipoic acid and captopril. We sought to determine if these compounds have neuro...
Cocaine sensitization does not alter SP effects on locomotion or excitatory synaptic transmission in the NAc of rats
Substance P (SP) and cocaine employ similar mechanisms to modify excitatory synaptic transmission in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), a region implicated in substance abuse. Here we explored, using NAc slices, whether SP effects on these synaptic responses were altered in rats that have been sensitized ...
CYP17, catechol-o-methyltransferase, and glutathione transferase M1 genetic polymorphisms, lifestyle factors, and breast cancer risk in women on Prince Edward Island
Abstract:  Genetic polymorphisms in enzymes controlling the formation and disposition of estrogens and their metabolites have been shown to influence breast cancer risk. Environmental and lifestyle factors may interact with estrogen metabolism polymorphisms to influence breast cancer risk. We...
Cellular mechanisms by which lipoic acid confers protection during the early stages of cerebral ischemia
Lipoic acid (LA) is a naturally occurring compound and dietary supplement with powerful antioxidant properties. Although LA is neuroprotective in models of stroke, little is known about the cellular mechanisms by which it confers protection during the early stages of ischemia. Here, using a rat mode...
Differential neuroprotection of selective estrogen receptor agonists against autonomic dysfunction and ischemic cell death in permanent versus reperfusion injury
In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that selective activation of estrogen receptor subtypes (ERalpha and ERbeta) would be neuroprotective following ischemia and/or ischemia-reperfusion, as well as prevent the associated autonomic dysfunction. The selective ERalpha agonist, PPT, when admin...
Systemic administration of guanosine promotes functional and histological improvement following an ischemic stroke in rats
Previously we have found that extracellular guanosine (Guo) has neuroprotective properties in in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, extracellular Guo significantly increased in the ipsilateral hemisphere within 2 h following focal stroke in rats, and remained elevated for one week. Therefore, we hypothes...
Apocynin may limit total cell death following cerebral ischemia and reperfusion by enhancing apoptosis
The present study was designed to determine a dose-response relationship between apocynin and infarct volume as well as to provide a possible molecular mechanism mediating this effect. We tested the hypothesis that apocynin protects against cell death following stroke and reperfusion injury. Apocyni...
Current in vitro models of stroke involve applying oxygen-glucose deprived (OGD) media over an entire brain slice or plate of cultured neurons. Thus, these models fail to mimic the focal nature of stroke as observed clinically and with in vivo rodent models of stroke. Our aim was to develop a novel ...
Resveratrol preconditioning induces cellular stress proteins and is mediated via NMDA and estrogen receptors
We have developed a novel rodent animal model of reperfusion injury following stroke. In this model, blood flow through the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is temporarily occluded by placing gentle pressure on sutures behind the artery along three separate branches. The sutures remain in place for a pe...

First Ubuntu smartphones coming in October
The first devices running Ubuntu's smartphone operating system will become available in October. This is according to Canonical CEO Mark Shuttleworth (Canonical being the company behind Ubuntu).
This is great news, considering that back when the mobile OS was first unveiled we were only told to expect some actual hardware sometime next year.
Canonical plans to release an unfinished version of Ubuntu for phones later this month, so would-be developers will be able to install it on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and play with it. And develop for it. As is the case in the desktop-focused Linux world, most of the main apps in the OS are yet to be made, and they will become reality through a collaborative effort that is set to start once the first version is released.
So what the aforementioned announcement actually says is that the first 'finished' version of the OS will be out on the first smartphones in October – which is probably set to happily coincide with the launch of Ubuntu 13.10 for desktops and laptops. If that's the case, expect the grand mobile OS release to happen around the end of the month.
Shuttleworth said devices will initially become available in "two large geographic markets". He didn't name either, but one of them may be China (or Asia as a whole), since Ubuntu's got pretty good brand recognition over there on the desktop side. Also, it was probably easier to convince some of the famous Chinese 'white-box' device makers to use Ubuntu than the big smartphone makers. This is just speculation, though. And while Shuttleworth did say that North America is going to be a key market for Ubuntu for phones, that doesn't necessarily mean this new OS will make its way over there from day one. We'll have to wait and see.

Release Date: 2007-09-28 (NY/LA)
Genre: Documentary,
Rating: NR
Duration: 1hr 30min
"The Price of Sugar" follows a charismatic Spanish priest, Father Christopher Hartley, as he organizes some of this hemisphere's poorest people, challenging powerful interests profiting from their work. When he arrives in the Dominican Republic, he's warned against entering the sugar plantations where most of his parishioners live. Breaking a centuries old taboo, he discovers shocking examples of modern-day slavery intrinsic to the global sugar trade. On an island known for tropical beauty, tourists flock to escape winter and relax with little knowledge that just a few miles away thousands of dispossessed Haitians are toiling away in unseen plantations harvesting sugarcane most of which ends up in the United States. Cutting cane by machete, they work 14 hour days, 7 days a week frequently without access to decent housing, electricity, clean water, education, healthcare and adequate nutrition. Often they are stateless, with neither Dominican nor Haitian identity and virtually invisible in the eyes of the law.
