PHOENIX — The worst place to look for Matt Holliday before a game is at his locker.
You're more likely to find the A's new left fielder in the weight room riding the stationary bike, or maybe in the batting cage taking extra swings.
There aren't many wasted moments in Holliday's work day. And considering that his resume includes a batting title and an MVP award from the 2007 National League Championship Series, it's not like the extra effort is needed to score points with his new team.
Holliday — acquired from the Colorado Rockies in November for outfielder Carlos Gonzalez and pitchers Greg Smith and Huston Street — explained his approach to the game.
"Baseball is something I enjoy," he said. "I want to be the best player I can be. The only way I know to maximize my talent is to work at it."
Not thrilling stuff, but it gets to the core of what makes Holliday tick. He's one of the major leagues' most unassuming superstars, and his work ethic is making an impression with his teammates.
"His skills go without saying," said Jason Giambi, the other key hitter the A's obtained over the winter. "He's a phenomenal player. But just the type of guy he is is really what matters. And I think that's why (A's general manger) Billy (Beane) went out and got him."
Holliday, 29, seemed destined to make his living on the diamond. His father, Tom, was head coach at Oklahoma State for seven seasons and is now an assistant at North Carolina State. His older brother, Josh, is the recruiting coordinator at Arizona State. His uncle, Dave Holliday, is a special assistant to Rockies GM Dan O'Dowd.
One of Holliday's favorite players growing up was former Oklahoma State star and Chicago White Sox third baseman Robin Ventura, who labeled Matt and Josh "field rats" because of their love for baseball.
"Robin was one of those guys they looked up to," Tom Holliday said. "If Robin had called them a dirt bag, they would have thought 'dirt bag' was an honor."
But coming out of Stillwater High School, Holliday was one of the nation's hottest quarterback recruits. He broke several of Troy Aikman's Oklahoma prep passing records, and former Dallas Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson reportedly told Tom Holliday that his son "couldn't miss" as a quarterback.
Holliday was drafted by the Rockies out of high school in 1998 and decided to sign. He's been an All-Star three times in five big league seasons and in 2007 led the NL in batting (.340) and RBI (137) to go with 36 homers.
"He is such an offensive threat," one major league scout said. "I've seen him take a pitch down and away, what you'd say is a 'pitcher's pitch,' and drive it out of the park. He's as dangerous as there is."
The A's will pair him with Giambi in the middle of their order, though the question is for how long.
Holliday, who is represented by Scott Boras, can become a free agent after the season, and it's expected he would command a huge contract on the open market. It's possible the A's will trade him before the July 31 deadline if they're not contending in the American League West.
Tom Holliday knows his A's history — "I saw Sal Bando and Joe Rudi and Reggie Jackson win championships" — and said he's brought Matt up to speed on the franchise's past.
Though it's assumed the A's wouldn't compete in a bidding war with other clubs, Tom Holliday said it's wrong to think his son doesn't consider Oakland a long-term option.
Holliday has reached out to his new teammates. This winter, he called up A's shortstop Bobby Crosby and invited Crosby to hit with him and Mark McGwire, who has tutored Holliday frequently.
"I still haven't asked him how he got my number," Crosby said. "I really don't care. It was pretty cool."
Knowing there's uncertainty about where his future takes him, Holliday was asked how he approaches this season.
"The same way I would if I was under a 20-year contract," he said. "This has nothing to do with being a free agent or (playing for) a contract or any of that stuff. This has to do with having the inner desire to want to be the best that you can be."

A while ago, we got word that Nickelodeon bought the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In a move that mirrored Disney's buy of Marvel Comics, Nick and Paramount had big plans to relaunch the franchise. The initial plans were for a new animated series on Nick Toons and a new toy line. Paramount also had fast tracked a new movie to add to the massive relaunch of every one's favorite mutant ninjas. Who Paramount has handed the property over is a bit..surprising.
Deadline has gotten word that TMNT relaunch is in the hands of Platinum Dunes and Michael Bay. Bay's track record for the studio is almost impeccable. Both his Transformers films and most of the stuff out of his Platinum Dunes has banked a ton of cash for Paramount. With Dunes remaking Monster Squad and moving away from blatant horror remakes, I guess that they felt that the Turtles would be in good hands. It's hard to argue that point.
Bay along with Brad Fuller and Andrew Form, will be producing the film. They'll be looking for writers in the next few weeks. The last TMNT film was produced by the now defunct IMAGI Studios. That film grossed almost $100. So there's big bucks still to be had with the property. I've been very vocal about my enjoyment of Platinum Dune's films. I haven't peeped Nightmare on Elm Street yet. From what I've been told, I'm not missing anything. Still one mark on a good record isn't enough to say me from thinking that perhaps, TMNT and Platinum Dunes isn't that bad of an idea.

Now celebrating our 30th year, the Mullane Healy Godley Academy continues to be one of North America's premier Irish dance academies. Although small in size with current enrollment of approximately 150 dancers, MHG is one of the most recognized programs in competitive Irish dancing, in addition to our recreational program for non-competitive dancers.
Our success as one of the top North American Irish Dance Academy at the recent 2014 National and World Championships illustrates the dedication of both the dancers and teachers. 93% of all the MHG dancers who participated in the National Championships recalled with the school winning two titles, and placing 12 dancers in the top 5.
We believe that one of our greatest assets is the diversity of the Mullane Healy Godley teaching staff. The Academy has always taken a team approach in instruction where all dancers are treated equally and all share in the commitment of a dedicated teaching staff. Through this global approach, dancers share in the talent of a teaching staff that has choreographed and coached a multitude of Regional, National, and World Champion teams and solos, along with the only school in Chicago that has three World Champions on staff.
Each teacher brings a
different perspective and approach to the
students, and each teacher relies on their own strengths to further develop
the abilities and talents of the dancers. The teaching faculty at the
Mullane Healy Godley Academy is an international fusion of some of the most
highly accomplished and decorated teachers in Irish Dance today.
Combining these talents, the Mullane Healy Godley Academy is poised for the
Combining these talents, the Mullane Healy Godley Academy is poised for the future.
The Academy offers classes for everyone. From recreational dance instruction, to preparation for the World Championship, in the Mullane Healy Godley Irish Dance Academy you will find a hardworking— yet fun atmosphere, from both the teaching staff and the student. To illustrate the hard work, preparation and practice of the dancers (affectionately known as MHuGsters) - the Academy is home to World Champions, All-Ireland Champions, North American Champions, All-Scotland Champions, Regional Champions and a host of Open Championship dancers. And although these are global achievements to be sure - more recognizable is the camaraderie and friendships developed between all the dancers as each dancer cheers the other on to success.
Classes are held in our state of the art studios in Elmhurst, and Edison Park. The blending of talents will now afford ALL present and future dancers an extensive array of opportunities combining the skills of both schools - through avenues such as performances, recitals, choreographies, School Feises, workshops and Academy events. Under the Mullane Healy Godley Academy, classes are offered in both recreational and competitive Irish dancing allowing dancers to enjoy Irish dancing at their pace.
The Academy is proud to treat every MHuGster equally ... this is not a goal, but a reality. Each dancer, whether Beginner, Recreational, or Competitive receives the same dedicated and energetic instruction.

Hi there,
I am working with the amazing atahualpa theme and I have a few questions.
How can I adjust the horizontal menu bar in width and height?
Can I shove the menu bar a little up so it covers the header partially?
Is it possible to make the bar somewhat transparant, let's say a 40%?
I would like to add home, contact and the buttons for social media on the right side above the Header. How?
I have 2 menu's: one horizontal and a submenu on the left, but I cant figure out how to let those 2 interact.
Loads of questions, I know. I appreciate your help :)

The Band Perry's Kimberly Perry has married her fiancé, Texas Rangers catcher J.P. Arencibia, the group's rep confirmed to Country Weekly.
The couple reportedly held their nuptials at a church in Greeneville, Tenn. [1], where the Perry family lives, and the reception took place at the family home. Among those in attendance [2] were Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher.
The couple originally met in 2012 at a Florida music festival, then got engaged in 2013 when J.P. proposed to Kimberly [3] at the family property in Greeneville.
"I went to a show of hers because I wanted to meet her," J.P. told ESPN in February [4]. "I got to meet her and we talked and eventually got back connected. That was spring training of 2012 and we started talking little by little and June that year we were dating."

To: NJIT Faculty, Students, and Staff
From: Robert A. Altenkirch, President
Date: September 22, 2002
Subject: Discussions on the Governor's Health Commission
Friday night I had the opportunity to meet with Governor McGreevey and discuss the work of the Governor's Commission on Health Science, Education, and Training. The Governor appreciates the importance of higher education in the development of the state's economy. We had a good discussion of NJIT's unique position in New Jersey's higher education system and our role in supporting a strong economy with technology as a driver.
We will continue these discussions with the Governor and his staff, members of the Commission, legislators and other leaders in the New Jersey higher education community. The work of the Commission is in progress at this point, and we have had an important opportunity to provide input, and will continue to do so as the Commission begins to frame its recommendations.

Four young children are in police protective custody after a four-year-old girl was found walking down the street in the middle of the night.
The incident happened in the 1400 block of North Volutsia around 3:30 a.m. Saturday.
Authorities located the child's home and found two 1-year-olds, and a six-month-old inside the house without supervision.
All four kids were taken to Wesley for and check up.
Police said a 24-year-old mother left the kids alone around 5 p.m. on Friday. They are trying to locate her. No arrests have been made.
The Exploited and Missing Children's Unit is investigating the case.
Neighbors say they often see the kids playing unsupervised in the streets. Some say it was only a matter of time until something was done.
"I think they could have been ran over, kidnapped. I mean they should have been home with their kids. I mean, what kind of adults are they to not be home with their kids? " said one neighbor.

Definition of toothfish in English:
(also Patagonian toothfish)
A large deep-sea fish of the southern Atlantic and Pacific oceans, prized as food and now endangered.
- Dissostichus eleginoides, family Nototheniidae.
Example sentences
- But during studies of the foraging behavior of Weddell seals, the researchers acquired considerable data on two important fish species: the Antarctic silverfish and the Antarctic toothfish.
- But that seems unlikely: two decades of intensive deep-sea fishing in the North Atlantic have turned up only that lone toothfish.
- According to a report released last month by the wildlife trade monitoring network TRAFFIC, Chile exports nearly 80 percent of its toothfish catch each year to Japan and the U.S. to the tune of U.S. $90 million.

Simple Ways to Let Your Love Flow
Contrary to the deluge of advertisements, magazine articles and greeting cards floating around right now, not everyone looks forward to Valentine's Day. Lots of people can't stand it. Hate it, even. (I know; I used to be one of them until I got engaged on Feb. 14th five years ago.) It can seem like just another excuse to spend money and an opportunity to wish your love life were somehow different.
If you detest this time of year or just aren't looking forward to this particular V-Day, try these simple ways to shortcut through the schmaltz and societal pressure and go straight to what this high-pressure holiday is really all about. Not flowers, chocolates or over-priced dinner reservations, but love. May one or some or all of these activities help you transform Valentine's Day into an opportunity to recharge your love batteries.
- Spend time with a baby. There's nothing like staring into the eyes of a wee babe to get you contemplating the mind-blowing nature of life and remind you of how we all need to care for and be cared for by others in order to thrive.
- Stretch open your chest. Opening the chest and ribcage — the physical home of your heart — can also help expand your metaphorical heart. My fellow Gaiam blogger Sadie Nardini has 6 excellent heart-opening poses to try. This kind of heart-opening yoga sequence is also excellent for lifting your mood, which could be just what you need if this Valentine's Day isn't exactly a happy holiday for you.
- Go on a hugging spree. Full-on, front-body-pressed-up-against-front-body-hugs create unspoken intimacy, relieve tension and give you that crucial aforementioned recharging. Not everyone will be game for a major embrace. But the next time you greet those special people with whom you have a physical rapport and solid level of trust, give yourself the green light to hug with impunity.
- Listen to heart-swelling music. Certain songs light the fire of love. For me, they include Stevie Wonder's "As" Van Morrison's "Sweet Thing," and Cheryl Lynn's "To Be Real." (I'm showing my age here, I realize.) If you need a nudge toward feeling more expansive and loving, let your iPod do the talking.
- Get in touch. Resting your hand on your heart as you take a deep breath is a quick yet powerful way to connect to your heart, even in the midst of a nutty day. You can feel it beating, and remember that there is more to you than your to-do list or your swirling thoughts.
I'd love to hear how you get back in touch with your loving nature when you find that you've retreated back in to your shell. Please leave a comment and share!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
Forum Moderators: open
Some of our sites are completely stable, and others are all over the place, and some even have the pre-dance cache now.
in addition one of my sites disappeared completely from the index (including grey bar) but still can be found in the yahoo results.
all this drives me to do sample search and look in my stats and check out for the googlebot every 5 minutes instead of getting some serious work done :)
Fortunately, Yahoo must slightly alter the algo, cause it's still on top there (after its update), but other sites are moving search results from 2,000,000 to 2,180,000 within minutes.
Other sites (and keyword searches) are solid as a rock, and operating as always.
Any ideas ladies and gentlemen?
I have never seen this happen before, particularly on mature sites. About 80% of my sites are fine, and about 20% of the sites (and/or keyword results) are flaky - and one of the flaky ones I put up in 1996!
Lately, I haven't been getting as much GoogleBot activity either (on any of the sites), which also concerns me.
As I mentioned before, other than during the dance, I have never seen search results bouncing around when I hit refresh on some keywords, like it is now. And to drop the fresh cache (that's been there for the past couple weeks) to 1-month old cache makes no sense either.
Hopefully Google will get well and go stable again soon.
Why should Google be stable? Is the web stable?
Stable is what we are used to, but it's not the way it should be.
I don't say the present fluctuation is the type we're waiting for, but 'stable results' belong on the scrap heap.
Obviously as information is added and changed, Google needs to respond accordingly. There should be changes every day.
What is NOT stable is seeing changing SERPs and search results of 2,040,000 - 2,100,000 - 2,050,000 - 2,180,000 every Minute when you hit refresh! And sites changing back and forth to last months' cache.
Most can't see this since many of the sites I monitor keywords and SERPS for aren't affected either. But on certain keywords, Google has 'stability' problems.
This is particularly bad with what the directory results are doing. For me, they were fluctuating between the current results from the last RDF dump Google used, to result back from fall of last year. Which in the cat I checked had 3 dead sites that have since been dumped, and 3 new ones that have been added.

Housing association CEO shortlisted for top award for 4th year running

Housing association CEO shortlisted for top award for 4th year running
A housing association's chief executive has been shortlisted for a top UK business award for the fourth year running.
Anne Hinchey, CEO of Wales & West Housing Group, has been named one of the top 10 'Most People-Focused CEOs' in the public and voluntary Sector in the Best Companies HR Excellence Awards 2014.
It is the fourth year running that Ms Hinchey has been shortlisted for this award and follows her winning the award outright last year.
She is also the only CEO of a Wales-based not-for-profit organisation to make the shortlist.
The CEO said: "It is incredible that I have been shortlisted for this award again, and I am very humbled by it.
"As I have said previously, I very much regard this not as a personal achievement, but rather a reflection of the wonderful team that I have working with me at Wales & West Housing Group."
The shortlist is developed in conjunction with workplace engagement specialist Best Companies, which provides HR Magazine with a list of the top 10 CEOs based on employee feedback.
Arvind Hickman, editor of HR Magazine, said: "The prestigious Most People-Focused CEO award celebrates those who have shown exceptionally strong leadership, often in tough economic circumstances.
"Anne is a shining example of a leader who truly understands how to get the most out of her workforce, proven by the fact she has been on our shortlist for four consecutive years now – winning it outright last year. She has shown she is a leader who consistently puts people first."
This year Wales & West Housing was ranked 5th in the UK in the Sunday Times Best Companies Top 100 Not-For-Profit organisations, a rise of two places on the organisation's 2013 ranking, making it the top not-for-profit organisation in Wales.
The social landlord manages more than 9,500 affordable properties across 12 local authority areas in Wales, and is on course to build another 1,000 new affordable homes over the next five years.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- The University of Rhode Island will seek approval from the State Properties Committee Tuesday to lease space in an Orms Street office building for the university's "Living Rite" program.
In June 2012, URI won a $14-million federal grant to develop a program coordinating the health care of adults with developmental disabilities, Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
The three-year grant was one of 81 new Health Care Innovation Awards announced at that time. The grants are made possible by the federal health-care overhaul, the Affordable Care Act. The URI program, called " Living Rite," seeks to improve and coordinate health care for people with cognitive disabilities and multiple chronic illnesses who are covered by both Medicaid and Medicare.
URI wants to lease space in the Charles-Orms Professional Building at 10 Orms St. for the program.

Analysts Worry Over Ukrainian Reserves
While protests continue in Kiev as the political crisis grinds on, analysts are turning a worried eye towards the country's foreign currency reserves, which are shrinking fast.
The National Bank of Ukraine said Friday that foreign-currency and gold reserves fell to $18.79 billion as of Dec. 1, from $20.6 billion one month before. Draining the funds were repayments of sovereign bonds for $578 million, $955 million repayments to the International Monetary Fund and $800 million of foreign exchange interventions to stabilize the local currency, the central bank said.
"The number is well below our and consensus expectations of $19.2 billion," said Vladimir Osakovskiy, Russia and CIS economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch. "We estimate the critical level of reserves is around $15 billion, so authorities have less than $4 billion now to continue to defend the status quo. On the more positive side, external debt repayments fall considerably in December and in the first quarter of 2014, which could offer some support to reserves," he said.
Foreign exchange reserves are a closely watched variable for Ukraine. Reserves now cover only slightly more than two months of imports, where the commonly recognized "danger threshold" is three months. Without foreign-currency reserves, the country cannot meet external debt obligations or defend its currency, the hryvnia.
Courtesy of Nomura, these charts illustrate the strain. The first shows the current-account deficit growing ever larger while reserves shrink.
And the second shows the schedule of debt repayments falling due in the coming years.
Dmitri Petrov and Peter Attard Montalto, emerging markets analysts at Nomura, said:
"We didn't expect such a sharp drop in reserves. Gas imports and difficulties in exports to Russia have had an impact. Ukraine can make it through this winter, but without external financing it will be very difficult to get through next winter. If they don't want a currency collapse, they need to think about their financing options soon."

Day 2: Pheonix Copley Blog
Yesterday afternoon, after our first session in the morning, we got back on the ice and had a good skate. I worked with Mitch a bit more, which is always nice because he knows a ton about the goalie position. After that skate we went to dinner with all of the guys and then we just headed back to the hotel, because I think everyone was pretty tired last night after so much time on the ice. Unfortunately, everyone was a little too tired to catch a movie. Hopefully we can see one later this week.
This morning we woke up early and after a good breakfast, we had a little break out session with Coach Trotz. We then headed out to the track, and had a nice work out there. We were doing some sprinting activities with weights and worked on having explosive starts. We did a lot of exercises focusing on starting and stopping. We also did some things on the agility ladder, some of it even on one leg. Working out on a track was kind of a new experience for me, but I'm glad we did it because I learned a lot.
After working out on the track, we came back to the ice, where all of the goalies were working with Mitch Korn, Scott Murray and Olie Kolzig. That was a good session and I definitely learned a lot. After that we did some recovery activities so that our muscles will stay fresh and we'll be ready for tomorrow.
For the rest of the day, we have a team lunch, then as a nice team activity we'll be going to the Nationals game this afternoon. That should be a good time and it'll be nice to get to know some of the other guys a bit more.

Are you on any birth control? Missing a pill can mess up your cycles and your cycles can mess up for a number of reasons, stress, worry, illness or simply because our bodies sometimes like to keep us on our toes. Try another test in a few days time and if you are still concerned, speak to your doctor xx

As the pregnancy test was negative, its unlikely that you are pregnant, but saying that, sometimes a pregnancy test doesnt detect the pregnancy hormone until a few weeks after your missed period, but from your dates you would be around 8 weeks now so it should pick the hormone up if you are pregnant. Its most likely your body playing tricks, but if you are worried, speak to your GP xx

New Reality: 'O.C. Housewife' Selling Home
Developments readers know that the "Real Housewives of Orange County" have serious housing issues: The women are no strangers to loan modifications, short sales and foreclosures.
But here's a dose of drama-free reality: Cast member Vicki Gunvalson has listed her Coto de Caza, Calif., house for sale the old-fashioned way, TMZ reports.
Donn Gunvalson, Vicki's husband, confirmed the listing, but did not comment further. (Take a virtual tour of the home.) The couple is asking $2.695 million for the five-bedroom, six-bathroom home brimming with upscale features including a dramatic master suite and a "resort style palm tree studded pool featuring a huge rock slide as well as a 5-seat swim up bar," according to the listing.
That the house is up for grabs isn't a surprise: Vicki Gunvalson, a hard-working insurance executive who was profiled in the Washington Post, discussed selling the spacious home in a recent episode. Big spaces come with big costs, she pointed out, and her two children are grown.
Laura Simmons, the Weichert agent with the listing, said she's hoping for quick sale. That could be tough. While Coto is an exclusive gated community favored by professional athletes and doctors, it has felt the effects of the downturn. Prices have fallen some 30% from the peak, Simmons said, and sales have slowed, sending even high-end homes into foreclosure.
This house, however, has the advantage of being featured on a popular cable-television reality show. "It adds cachet," she says.
We'll watch to see if the sale becomes part of future episodes.

SACRAMENTO — A judge overseeing Stockton's bankruptcy today nixed the testimony of two expert witnesses creditors wanted to put on the stand next week at the city's eligibility trial.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Klein will oversee a four-day trial beginning Monday to decide if the city should be allowed to seek Chapter 9 bankruptcy protection.
Klein held Wednesday's hearing to make his last rulings on what evidence and witnesses the attorneys can use.
Assured Guaranty Corp. and National Public Finance Guarantee Corp. — the two leading creditors challenging the city's case — had sought to use the experts' reports to bolster their arguments.

Heart Disease Health Center
Heart Disease and ACE Inhibitors
In this article
Will my ACE Inhibitor Interact With Any Foods or Drugs? continued...
Over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs, like Aleve and Motrin) and aspirin may cause the body to retain salt and water, and decrease the effect of an ACE inhibitor. Check with your doctor before taking any anti-inflammatory medications.
It is important that your doctor is aware of all the drugs you are taking, as some (in addition to those listed above) may potentially interact with ACE inhibitors. Talk to your doctor before taking any new medication, including over-the-counter drugs, herbs, and supplements.
What Are the Side Effects of ACE Inhibitors?
Possible side effects when taking ACE inhibitors include:
- Cough . If this symptom persists or is severe, contact your doctor. Ask your doctor what type of cough medicine you may use to control the cough.
- Red, itchy skinrash. Contact your doctor; do not treat the rash yourself.
- Dizziness , lightheadedness, or faintness upon rising. This side effect may be strongest after the first dose, especially if you have been taking a diuretic (water pill). Get up more slowly. Contact your doctor if these symptoms persist or are severe.
- Salty or metallic taste or a decreased ability to taste. This effect usually goes away as you continue taking the medication.
- Physical symptoms. Sore throat, fever, mouth sores, unusual bruising, fast or irregular heartbeat, chest pain, swelling of feet, ankles, lower legs. Contact your doctor if you have any of these symptoms.
- Swelling of your neck, face, and tongue. Contact your doctor right away if you have any of these symptoms. This is a potential emergency.
- High potassium levels. This is a potentially life-threatening complication. Therefore, people on ACE inhibitors should regularly have blood tests to measure potassium levels. Signs of too much potassium in the body include confusion; irregular heartbeat; nervousness; numbness or tingling in hands, feet or lips; shortness of breath or difficulty breathing; weakness or heaviness in legs. Contact your doctor right away if you have any of these symptoms.
- Severe vomiting or diarrhea. If you have severe vomiting or diarrhea you may become dehydrated, which can lead to low blood pressure. Contact your doctor right away.
Also contact your doctor if you have any other symptoms that cause concern.

The South Carolina Highway Patrol is investigating a wreck in Aiken County.
It happened around 10 o'clock the night of June 19, when a van and car crashed on Vaucluse Road and Highway 191, about five miles west of Aiken.
Troopers say a 17-year-old girl drove left of center and hit a van driven by Brown Ellison of Trenton. He was wearing a seatbelt; the girl wasn't.
Ellison, his three passengers, and the teenage girl were all taken to MCG.
Traffic was blocked for about 30 minutes.

Situated in the shadow of the Wasatch Mountains, this waterfowling venue may be second to none
By Gary Koehler
Every so often—when the stars and moon align, the wind is just right, and the water level is at the very least adequate—ducks seem to become much more cooperative. That is, if you are fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time. On Great Salt Lake, it helps when an airboat is thrown into the mix.
We motored for several miles from our Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area (WMA) launch site, traveling over open water and extensive mud flats before maneuvering into a marsh split by a narrow channel. We are surrounded by alkali bulrush, which ranks among the primary waterfowl food sources in this part of the world.
Farmington Bay WMA, a 13,000-acre complex, had provided an early glimpse of what was to come. Northern pintails, wigeon, mallards, gadwalls, teal, northern shovelers, and other waterfowl were stacked up in a rest area to the tune of perhaps 40,000 birds. Maybe more. And that's not counting the coots.
"Really, this isn't anywhere near the most ducks I've ever seen here," says Jerald Olsen, who serves Ducks Unlimited as Utah regional director. "There are days when the whole rest area is covered. And I mean all of it."
The abundance of ducks on the refuge was one thing, but no one was prepared for what we saw on the ride to our hunting site. There was a slight haze, which limited visibility in some places. From a distance, the humps protruding from the patch of mud ahead looked to be a collection of low stumps, or maybe geese. Nope. Tundra swans. Several hundred of them. Their mass exodus as we drew near was enough to take one's breath away.
"There's a swan season here," Olsen says. "Hunters can take one a year. You'll see them all over the place during your stay."
Our focus this afternoon, however, is on ducks. Scott Farber is at the airboat controls and knows exactly where the hidden marsh opening is located. DU Area Chairman Shane Lindquist, like me, is a newcomer to the big lake, which is more than 70 miles long and mostly shallow. Locals allow that mud motors are fine, but airboats will go the distance.
Hundreds of ducks flee the channel and adjacent open-water pockets in response to the roar of Farber's airboat engine. "That right there was worth the ride out here," Lindquist says as he watches duck tails disappear into the midday sky. "That's what we all work for."
"I bet 90 percent of them were mallards," Farber says as we begin unloading decoys, guns, gear, and a peppy black Lab named Rox. "I found this place the other day, and it was loaded with ducks. We did really well here."
We hide in the reeds, sitting on plastic bucket chairs to ensure a low profile. There is very little wind, and the sun is at our backs. The temperature is in the 50s, which is substantially warmer than the norm for this date in November.
What will this day bring besides potential for a suntan?
A lone mallard drake arrives first, flying right to left right down the center of the channel. A single shot from Farber's 12-gauge puts the duck on the deck.
"I think we're going to see more of that," says Olsen, whose high-octane energy level is enviable to all of us over 50. "And we're going to be ready."
And so the displaced ducks return, in singles and pairs, threes and fours. There are no large flocks, but there is a steady stream of stragglers, meandering back to the resting and feeding area they had abandoned an hour ago. Bigger flocks are spotted regularly off in the distance.
Lindquist knocks down a gorgeous pintail drake, Farber takes another mallard, and Olsen connects on a wigeon. Me? The on-loan autoloader in hand had been cleaned the night before by a party who wishes to remain anonymous. But one critical piece must have been left behind. I jerk the trigger, but nothing happens, not even a click. Fortunately, Olsen has a spare shotgun in the boat.
The afternoon is nothing less than a duck hunter's dream. Between selective, drakes-only shooting volleys, we watch swans and geese trade across the lake. There are no other hunters nearby. We are alone. We are awash with ducks. And all is well with the world.
Not so much the next morning. Olsen and I are set up in what he describes as a roll-blind, a simple, homemade contraption valued for its portability. The blind consists of wire covered with grass and poles at each end that are stuck in the mud. The blind can literally be rolled up for easy transport. We set up at Willard Spur, a state public hunting area adjacent to the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.
"Hunting can be good here if you time it right," Olsen says. The wind is not in our favor, however, and the majority of the ducks we see refuse to respond to the call. Only a couple of shots by Olsen avoid a waterfowl shutout.
We return to the big lake the following day. This time there are two airboats. And eight hunters, plus Rox. Again, we endure a long-distance cruise. This time, however, the thermometer is on an upward climb. Temperatures creep into the 60s. Ducks must be loafing in the calm weather, because they remain conspicuous in their absence.
Our rig is placed in another marshy area, but the difference this time is that the vegetation consists mostly of phragmites, an invasive plant species that has grown increasingly worrisome on Great Salt Lake the past several years. This plant chokes wetland habitat and is capable of spreading quickly.
"It's one of our biggest problems out here," Olsen says. "Phragmites displaces native vegetation and offers nothing positive for the waterfowl resource. It's like a plague."
Still, there are ducks. The shooting schedule is more subdued, but mallards, gadwalls, wigeon, and teal all drop in. Many skirt our spread to visit small open-water holes in the phragmites. Gunners willing to battle the mosquitoes do well while hiding in the tall reeds.
"A lot of people who live in this area don't realize what we have out here, what type of terrific resource this lake is," Olsen says. "Great Salt Lake is unique."
No argument here.

We're all about helping you save money
Have you ever bought something only later to find out that you could have gotten the same item cheaper elsewhere? We really hate that feeling. That's why back in 1994, we set out to help Canadians like yourself avoid that sinking feeling when it came to buying insurance.
We all need insurance, but no one should overpay for it
Insurance is funny (no, really it is). Whether it's car insurance, home insurance, life or travel insurance, the rate you pay with one company is not the rate you'll likely pay with another. There is so much that goes into calculating an insurance rate, it's safe to say that no two insurers are alike. And, it is for this reason that you need to comparison shop your insurance needs; otherwise you run the risk of spending too much on your coverage. How much could you end up overpaying? Well, with car insurance for example, it could be hundreds, even a thousand or so dollars.
Our customers say..
We want to help you get the coverage you need,
at the best possible price
More than 20 years and 3 million (plus!) quotes later, millions of people come to InsuranceHotline.com every year to find the best insurance rate. It takes a just a few short minutes to compare quotes from our network of over 30 insurance providers to see if you could save money, which is what we want for you because we're drivers, homeowners and travellers too. We get it.
We're real people, trying to help you save real money. We are also pretty social! Let's chat about your next trip, the car you're planning on buying, and of course about any insurance questions you might have. You can reach us at:

guest room
this is on the king bed in our guest room. the colors are just as the photo shows. the fabric is soft and comfortable against the skin or so our guests have told us. i didn't wash it before use but did spray fabreeze on it as there was a sligtly unpleasant smell due to packaging, i'm sure. it is beautiful and goes very well with the light grey walls and dark grey trim.Read More

Not the quality I expected....pretty but not for me.Read More
Very Pretty!
I am very pleased with my new duvet cover and shams. The fabric is really nice, a tightly woven cotton with a little sheen. The colors are rich and match the room perfectly. Well made and a great price.Read More

Love it!
I love the two duvet covers I've bought recently from Overstock. Some reveiws I've seen complain that the material is "thin". There are two kinds of covers; those from heavier materials that are used as a formal bedspread - usually used with a flat top sheet, to sleep under - or the soft cotton like this one that is perfect for using as a sheet AND a bedspread. Having lived in Europe for 20 years, we prefer to sleep directly under the duvet.Read More
Great quality and great value
I ordered the gray duvet and it looks great in my bedroom which is mostly neutrals (grays, beiges/camels, with metallic accents).. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is made of a cotton sateen and has a nice, subtle sheen to it. The fabric is fairly tightly woven and has a good weight to it (like a good quality sheet). My only complaint is that there are no ties inside to hold the comforter in place. Other than that, I would recommend this highly.Read More
Grey duvet cover
I ordered the set in grey and I'm really happy with it. I would not describe the color as grey however--there is a grey-like shade in the pattern, but the rest of the colors in the print are so warm (cream, tan, etc) that the overall dominant effect is more like a beige or taupe, just warmer than a true grey. I nearly ordered the mocha, thinking the grey set would be too stark, and I'm glad I didn't. Photos on the website of each individual color would be helpful! Just the same, I eenie meenie miney moe'd it, and it works perfectly in my room with taupe walls, white trim and espresso bedroom set. Very happy. Fit is perfect. Quality is good. No defects or stitching problems. The pattern is interesting without being overpowering. Comes out of the package with a chemical odor, need to launder before using. Would have preferred a stripe or contrasting print on the reverse, but I bought a set of white shadow striped sheets at the same time, and it provides a little contrast in a sophisticated way. Sorry for the rambling but point being, I'd definitely recommend the set. Looks really nice.Read More
Great deal. Just what I was looking to purchase.
Wasn't sure about the pattern at first but we have a dog that loves our comforter as much as we do. The pattern masks the paw prints that sometimes just happen. Haven't washed it yet, but cotton feels soft and I think it will wash very well.Read More
Almost a 5
I was having trouble finding twin size duvet covers that aren't childlike (I use two twin duvets on our king-size bed to avert the "quit stealing my covers" debate) and that are in the grey family. I was very pleased to find these duvet covers at a reasonable price. They are very soft, comfortable and attractive. I would gave them a 5-star rating, but one of the covers was not sewn well at the top; there were several holes on the seam where the edges weren't sewn together. Instead of taking the time to return them, I took a couple minutes to run it through the sewing machine. With that being said, the other cover was sewn perfectly. I am pleased with my purchase overall, and the duvet covers are currently residing on our bed.Read More
Questions & Answers
Blanche Fla. I asked the same questions. There are no other coordinating pieces as far as I know.
Returning the curtains, not wide enough for my window, i love the material though.
ARe there any other coordinating pieces with this set? I have the duvet and sheet set. I am looking for bedskirt and additional shams.
No - there are only the sheets and duvet cover
No. But if you have the red, I ordered the bed skirt and extra pillow cases at Walmart.com in the wine color, in Good Housekeeping Brand and they go perfect! *i could not find a bedskirt in dark red on O for a full size bed that had slotted corners for a footboard.
I have not read anyone purchasing the mocha color cover. Why is there a different price quoted from all the other colors? also could you describe the colors in a bit more detail.?
I bought the mocha... It's very soft and thin. I put a old comforter in mine to fill it up. I don't feel like it looked much like the picture but I do enjoy the lightness of the fabric. Colors are very muted. I think the price is more for mocha because it's a more in demand color palette.
I bought this duvet Red. It is a form of paisley with an Indian influence design. It is heavenly, The fabric l is manifactured in a Tight weave and a blanket can be inseerted into the duvet with easy to button closures., It washes beautifully, Dry it on delicate. I use it as an overlay. I bought a King Size and it works well as a spreadon our Quee size bed. The matching shams are elegant. I am not a mocha gal. But if that color works with your room scheme, I would recommend buying it. It is a very good value in my opinion. I usually do not respond to these queries, everyone has a different perception of what is so.
I bought this in the mocha. We have a room painted gray (Benjamin Moore-Revere Pewter) which is a beige/gray wall, and actually the mocha duvet cover ends up looking more like the wall color, which is perfect. Love the gold/gray colors in the duvet cover. Thumbs up!
I love the mocha color as it goes great in my room. Didn't realize it was more expensive than the other colors. The cover is soft and lightweight which is perfect for us.
The darkest brown color is muted (not a rich dark brown) and it is mixed in with a combination of colors â tan/khaki color plus some very pale olive green. I think it was a higher price because it is more neutral in color than the others. I also bought the gold too and it is very bright. They are very soft and not heavy weight.
As far as price is concerned, I don't know. But the mocha is a very neutral and warm pattern that works very well in my space. There are a fair amount of charcoal and yellow hues to it. I like the feel and weight of the fabric, it is a nice duvet cover.
I purchased the mocha duvet cover. I love it. It really is more on the reddish color and has lots of green and gold in it. It is beautiful and has worked out perfect for the colors in our bedroom.
The colors are more red, with green and gold in it. It really is very pretty. Another person stated it is soft and thin. It is which makes it lighter than many duvet covers and easier to handle.
I bought this item but am not satisfied with the size. King size to cover the box springs needs to be at least 108 or preferably 110 in width. I have been looking for a comforter in teal or aqua and have yet to find one the proper size.
I would like to order the blue set but am worried about the color not being as pictured. Is it gold, turquoise, and navy blue?
I bought the gold color. It was very true to the pictures online. Very happy with this product, very soft cotton.
I'd say the gold and turquoise dominate, with navy and cream accents. I found the set to be as pictured. Additionally it launders well; no pilling or fading in nine months. You'll want to iron the edges of the shams to keep them crisp, though.
I bought the red and the gold colored sets and love them. I think the close up photo of my two colors sets were identical to what I received. I would examine that zoomed in photo and would expect it to represent it well. BTW, they hold their color well and wash and dry easily, and the fabric feels nice!
The gold is very bright - almost yellow. The other colors are turquoise an navy/cobalt. It was much brighter than I expected but I've gotten used to it and makes the room very cheerful.
I would say gold, navy, sky blue not so much turquoise. But the light blue next to the navy does make it look like aqua in certain light.
It is, exactly. The gold is very, very pretty and then there is a soft, lighter, turquoise...and navy. Somehow, it ends up coordinating beautifully with teal, which is the color of my sheer curtains and area rug. The material, too, is very soft, almost has a sheen to it, feels silky on my bed. Just FYI, I ended u liking the duvet and shams so well I ordered the matching sheets: Same colors, but not as rich and nowhere near as silky smooth.
Hi Birdie, Mine didn't have any navy blue. It's gold, red (not blue red, but not orange thank God!) I has some turquoise and different shades of green........it is mostly red and gold........very pretty!
Birdie, I ordered the Tan and Brown and my wife said it is true to the photo.
I bought the red, and it is EXACTLY the same as the photo. I also got the sheets. Regardless of the color, this is a quality product you won't be disappointed in. The fabric is like a silky smooth soft twill. I love hopping into bed when these sheets are on! Just a side note, Overstock is great about returns. If you don't like the color, just return it! I'm planning on buying a couple more for kids for gifts. I think they will love the paisley, but more so, they will love the soft but strong sheets and duvet. Hope this helps!
The colors are very true to picture, very happy.
I bought this and am very happy. The total color appearance would be primarily blue with the gold accents. It has the navy blue and turquoise coloring with the gold. I have light aqua walls and this is a beautiful compliment. The colors are as pictured.
I ordered gray and it was right on.
The red. Does it have a lot of orange too?
No it dies not, it's all red
The photo of the Red is pretty close to it's true color. It is not a true red red but what I would call a beautiful Terricotta or Tuscan Red as the main color with tones of holden tan, rich purple, wine and green colors...love love love....ordered the coordinating sheets also...very high quality soft to the touch fabric!
The color you might think to be orange is more of a golden tan. There is a good bit of hunter green in it as well. I hope tis helps.
yes there is a lot of orange!
No orange...
The red is a deep dark red close to a maroon or deep brick red. There is no orange at all. Deep dark red, hunter green, gold and off white. I purchased Walmart brand brick red pillow cases and bed skirt and match it perfectly. Sheets and duvet are very good quality for the price. Love it!
No orange - mostly red. Beautiful
I would like to tell you that the red color is a beautiful deep barn red. Not bright lipstick red. You will be impressed, as they wash beautifully and are so smooth and soft, but also strong!
Definitely red - not orange
do you have curtain treatments that match the duvet order 3 168792493
This cover set does not have matching window treatments at this time.
I have white lace curtains that looks great with the blue one I purchased.
You could order an extra duvet for the fabric and make curtains.
Just a personal suggestion, but since they have matching sheets, that might be an easier option to make window treatments from - I've done this a few times and the flat sheet is a lot of fabric so I would remove the elastic from the bottom fitted sheet and lay it flat to measure because you would likely want window treatments all the same size.
red duvet # 14790556, do you have any curtains or drapes to match
Unfortunately we don't have any curtains that are matching specifically but I attached the link below to some others that you might like. http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Curtains/Neutral,/color,/6420/subcat.html?searchtype=Header
I need to fit my cal king bed. Will your King size fit?
My sleep number bed is a Cal King due to my husband being 6' 3". It fits great. I don't go up over the pillows with it. I fold it down at the top by where you put your head and lay the pillows that are in the shams on top of the fold against the other pillows. It won't go up over them but that is not how I make my beds. It hangs on the sides about a foot on each side and depending on where you fold it at the top it's about a foot hanging over the bottom of the bed as well.
It depends on whether you are try to put a Cal King comforter inside, then no.
Not like it should! I have a Kings size bed and always buy Cal King Duvet covers if possible as it gives you an added 10 inches over the side which I find a Big Plus! Go for the Cal King you will not regret it and they are really quite nice especially for Spring and Summer. I have two! I liked the first one so much--red and ordered the yellow. Both are muted colors.
The blue dovet is beaytiful! buy it! You will not be sorry!
Does the grey fabric have blacks and gold in it? Cant get close enough to tell. Was wanting decor in blacks and golds. Would you recommend this for that kind of color palette?
I own it and yes it does. I have a dark charcoal headboard and golden lamps it matches beautifully
Yes, both black, gold and dove gray. Very pleasing print, should go well with gold and black color scheme.
Which is more medium to darkish brown - mocha or gray? Thanks
Hi Maven, The mocha will be light to medium brown. About light coffee with cream. Hope this helps. Mary
Hi Maven, We bought the grey and it a very rich "darker" pattern, We love it, have sheets and Duvet both.

(WYMT) - The No. 10 Pikeville Lady Panthers have jumped out to a 7-1 start this season, and a big part of their early success is the play of junior Rachel Potter, who is averaging 20.6 points and 9.3 rebounds per game on the year. Next week the Lady Panthers will travel to Daytona Beach, Florida for the Father Lopez Tournament, but tonight, we learn a little more about Pikeville's lucky No. 13 in this week's Lee's Famous Recipe Hazard and Whitesburg Full Court Press.
