- I wouldn't change produce, these are great Review by Guest
- The contacts are easy to clean, work well with me and my busy life, product is always delivered super fast worth the delivery charge, and they are always willing to help if something is not right (Posted on 9/19/14)
- Great for sensitive eyes Review by Vuit
- I used to wear PureVision Toric, but with very sensitive eyes, I found eventually they didn't fit my lifestyle. I'd but them in and they'd instantly irritate my eyes to the point where I could no longer wear them. When my optician recommended Acuvue Oasys I thought I would give lenses one more try, and I am glad I did. Acuvue Oasys are very comfy, breathable and most importantly they don't aggravate my sensitive eyes! (Posted on 9/11/14)
- So Soft Review by Vitoria
- I've used acuvue oasys for about 4 years now and they are the best! They're extremely comfortable and soft that you don't feel that you're even wearing contacts! (Posted on 9/5/14)
- That's good. With a Review by Daniel
- That's good. With a free pair of contact lesens, you will be able to see how they work and feel for you.In order to get free contacts, you need to do a few things. First of all, we do not offer free contacts here on our website. We just provide the information so you know what to do. First, look for the free trial contact lesens offers available on the websites of contact lens manufacturers. Go to the websites of Acuvue Colors, Freshlook Colors and maybe try Ciba Vision. Next, go see your local eye doctor so that you can get fitted for them. They will need to come up with a measurement for your base curve and also see if you need any vision correction at all. Once you have a valid prescription, you can then take advantage of the free colored contact lesens by mail offers and try them for yourself. Good luck! (Posted on 9/5/14)
- clarity and moisture Review by Ali
- This lenses are about the best I have ever worn. My eyes trend to dry very much so during the day and night while wearing but with these lenses the clarity, moisture content, and comfortability is thru the roof. I love them! (Posted on 9/5/14)
- just right Review by Guest
- Got my perscription just right. Very grateful! Contacts are working out great for me! (Posted on 9/4/14)
- Not bad Review by louis vuitton borse
- Not bad, these lenses are subtle and softer than the Advanced 2. So far so good I suppose. They have a strange rubbery feeling on my eyeballs but I'm used to them now. (Posted on 8/31/14)
- entire replacement for glasses Review by Guest
- I've been using these for the last 4 years. I love them. I rarely wear my glasses and these stay comfortable all day. (Posted on 5/30/14)
- first shipping Review by Guest
- Very easy to put in, although I've been wearing contacts for 17 years now. I love Acuvue Oasis (Posted on 4/2/14)

But while Jackson rests, lively discussions are being held by a divided Jackson family about where to bury their golden child, according to the Post.
Brother Jermaine and father Joseph reportedly want Michael to be buried at the Neverland Ranch, where a prospective museum could generate future income, despite a likely lengthy process to transform the property into a Graceland-like tourist attraction.
Mom Nixes NeverlandMother Katherine and the other siblings, however, are said to seek a more respectful burial ground, in keeping with Michael's desire never to return to Neverland after he believed sheriff's deputies had tainted the property when they sought evidence in the child-molestation case against him.
"Katherine doesn't want him at Neverland," a source tells PEOPLE. "She thinks it's a place of horrible memories. She says Michael wouldn't want to be there. Part of the family disagrees with her. But Katherine definitely wants to keep Michael's wishes that he not rest at Neverland."
In the matriarch's favor is that, due to strict land-use codes, securing local government permission to bury him on private property can be a challenging and a drawn-out process taking up to a month (although sprinkling cremated remains requires only the property owner's consent.)
So, for now, Michael Jackson remains in the Gordy crypt, which is described as a sparse, empty mausoleum highlighted by a G monogram and located on the same property as the graves for such Hollywood icons Lucille Ball, Bette Davis, Gene Autry and Sandra Dee, as well as James Bond producer Cubby Broccoli, comic Freddie Prinze and flamboyant entertainer Liberace.

Report: Texas receives A for logistics, C for manufacturing
Manufacturing grew in Texas and many other states in the last year, according to a recent report from Ball State University's Center for Business and Economic Research.
The 2012 Manufacturing and Logistics National Report graded all 50 states by several economic measures. Below is a chart of how Texas scored:
|Human capital
|Tax climate
|Employee benefit costs
|Expected liability gap
|Global reach
|Productivity & innovation
Most of Texas' grades were the same as last year, but it received a lower grade for employee benefit costs and a higher grade for global reach. Human capital, the only measure where Texas scored below a C, reflects the education and skill level of employees, and (in some settings) the health of residents and workers.
Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Kansas and Iowa earned the most As. Alaska, Hawaii, New Mexico and Nevada had the most Fs.
Michael Hicks, director of the Center for Business and Economic Research, said manufacturing roared back in many states in the last year, but he expects a slow down as worker productivity outstrips demand.
Slowing economies in Europe, Asia and elsewhere will put pressure on U.S. companies to maintain exports, which already have declined, Hicks said. Longer term, "the uncertainty surrounding financial markets"' will depress investment and hiring, he said.
The Center for Business and Economic Research conducted the report at the request of Conexus Indiana, the state's advanced manufacturing initiative.

Business school expansion to open 2015
Business school expansion to open 2015
The Utah Statesman
By Marissa Neeley
Huntsman Hall, projected to open fall 2015, will provide much-needed space for current Aggies and students to come.
Despite some setbacks in getting permit approvals, the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business would like to meet the 2015 deadline, according to Joe Beck, architect for USU facilities.
"We took advantage of the summer weather as much as we could, but because the permits were not ready yet, we were not allowed to pour concrete until they were," Beck said. "This makes it appear to be delayed, but actually we tried to get a jump on things, and were not able to in the end."

UNIVERSITY PARK - Sam Ficken went from feeling near zero to finishing with a perfect 10 in 2012.
Building on that for 2013 will take an improved mental approach, which he built from his early-season struggles last year, and improved physical skills, for which he's credited Penn State trainer Craig Fitzgerald.
Ficken's on-field performance not only mirrored the Nittany Lions last season, with a shaky 0-2 start followed by a strong finish, his performance was directly responsible for two of its most notable final scores.
He went 1-for-5 at Virginia, and his 42-yard miss at the end of the game led to a 17-16 defeat in the season's second game. But he converted his last 10 tries, including a 37-yarder in overtime of the 24-21 season finale win over Wisconsin.
"Even when I struggled, after the Virginia game I got, like 150 emails saying, 'Hey, sorry about all the crap going on. We support you,'" said Ficken. "It was good to see, and by the end it was pretty sweet."
Ficken, now a junior, ended up 14-for-21 on field goals and 39-for-41 on his extra points.
There is plenty of precedent for Ficken's improvement by Nittany Lion kickers. One would be Robbie Gould, the Central Mountain High School graduate who battled inconsistencies in college before becoming an All-Pro with the Chicago Bears. And Ficken said Gould helped with his mental approach, working with him to slow down and not rush.
"We went over film, the mentality we talked about, and the way I need to practice," said Ficken. "He helped with fundamentals. I'm now doing 2 steps instead of 2 and that eliminates some room for error."
There were others, such as Minnesota Vikings kicker Blair Walsh and coaches with kicking backgrounds from high school. Anyone who could help, though Gould's hometown of Lock Haven sitting less than an hour from Penn State and Ficken's hometown of Valparaiso, Ind., sitting less than an hour from Chicago made their pairing particularly convenient for some face time.
"Robbie, he's been through the tough times, too, and knew where I was coming from," said Ficken. "He understood, and I think it helped me in the end."
Then there's the physical approach. Ficken said that Fitzgerald has the kickers do the same strength drills other players do, which he said not only built camaraderie, but did in fact make him stronger. And while leg strength didn't appear to be a major issue for Ficken - his 61.6-yard kickoff average was average for the Big Ten, the Nittany Lions' kickoff coverage was 10th.
Ficken said he's worked to fine tune his technique with his added strength, and appreciated the approach O'Brien brought to special teams, an area the coach admits needs improvement.
But Ficken knows that it still comes back to him.
"Last year I did have all the ability in the world, so it's probably just mental," said Ficken.
There's also support on the Penn State sidelines, as teammate Alex Butterworth assumed punting duties last season, averaging 37.4 yards per punt, last in the Big Ten.
But Butterworth landed 19 of his punts inside the 20 with just two touchbacks. He said he spent the offseason improving his drop technique, as he said a good drop is his best weapon to launch a good kick.
"Coach O'Brien, he gets really excited with a good punt, obviously, but a bad one? Yeah, I try to avoid him," said Butterworth, a senior. "Special teams is something he knows really well, and it's one of the things that surprised me when I got here."
Butterworth hopes to see more excitement out of O'Brien and Ficken, too.
"I kind of figured out that Sam is real serious about the kicking game, and keeping him loose makes him a better kicker than when he's serious," said Butterworth. "So we want to keep him loose, but with his game face on."

"All around the street were people cheering me on, wanting me back," Moore tells PEOPLE of the day she was fired. "People that I had locked up were here saying, 'You've locked me up, but you've done it with dignity and respect. You did your job and you did what you were supposed to do and I'm here to support you.' It was amazing."
The small town of Latta rallied around her and overwhelmingly voted to give Moore her job back, saying her sexual orientation had nothing to do with her ability to do her job. She was once again sworn in as the town's police chief on June 27.
"A lady that was 86 years old came to me and said, 'I've never voted before. But because of you and the person you are, I'm coming to vote,' " Moore recalls.
"It's never been about the fact that she's gay," Town Councilman Jarett Taylor tells PEOPLE. "We could care less that she's gay. I think I can speak for the whole entire town, we don't care that she's gay. She gets out and does her job, she does her job well and she cares about the town, she cares about the people."
Taylor led the charge for Moore. After he became suspicious of the mayor's motivations, the councilman secretly began recording his conversations with Bullard (which is legal in the state of South Carolina). It's on one of these tapes that the mayor can be heard saying: "I'd much rather have somebody who drank and drank too much taking care of my child than I had somebody whose lifestyle is questionable around children, because that ain't the damn way it's supposed to be."
For his part, Bullard does not deny the harsh words, but he does state that they were not said about Moore.
"I was talking about another former town employee who had resigned," Bullard tells PEOPLE. "It had nothing to do with Crystal Moore, nothing. This individual was gay and we were talking about the fact that she had quit. They used the quote out of context, is what they did, to further their position."
Fired for InsubordinationSo did Bullard fire Moore because she is gay? He says no, claiming that she was actually let go for "sheer insubordination."
"It had gotten to the point that she thought she didn't have anyone to answer to," Bullard tells PEOPLE. "I don't have anything against gays. What a person does behind their closed doors is their own business, but it's hard to explain to a 5-year-old child why another 5-year-old child has two mommies or two daddies."
Moore disagrees with Bullard's statement.
"There was no insubordination," says Moore. "I tried to work with the mayor. I did not disrespect him. I did exactly what I was supposed to. His personal vendetta, his personal beliefs is what got us into this."
Though Bullard insists that he has plenty of gay friends and family members, he stands by what he can be heard saying on Taylor's tape.
"I, as a person, in my own heart of hearts, do not agree with the homosexual lifestyle, but I will never persecute nor prosecute anyone for it. That's their decision," he says. "That's between them and whoever they're with and their god. That's for them to work out, not me."
Taylor says he's shocked that Bullard hasn't shown more regret for his homophobic remarks.
"You'd think after months of getting absolutely shattered in the media and losing your authority in the town of Latta, I would assume you would learn a little bit of remorse," he says. "It just goes to show you, that's what kind of man we're dealing with."
Stacks of Hate MailThese days, Bullard is having a rough time in Latta.
"I've got a stack of hate mail in my file drawer that's about two inches thick that came from all over the country," he tells PEOPLE. "I've had people threaten me. When I say threaten, I mean literally threaten with bodily harm."
He's even been kicked out of his old office.
"My office was in the town hall, that's where it was," he says. "They decided to give my office to the municipal judge and move me across the street to a building where the air conditioner doesn't even work."
But Bullard says he won't let the antagonism get him down.
"I'm not going to be provoked," he says. "I've always taken the high road in this."
And while Moore may have her job back, she's been left with a mound of legal bills, totaling some $18,000, she says.
"We have grounds for a lawsuit, but to sue the mayor, you'd have to sue the town," she says. "It's not fair for me to sue the town. The citizens didn't cause this, [Bullard] did."
Moore won't have to pay off all of her legal debt by herself, however. Some citizens of Latta have set up a Go Fund Me page in Moore's name. So far more than $8,000 has been donated.
Moore adds: "I'm just hoping that this publicity I didn't ask for will help me."

UFC star got banned drug from twice-disciplined Irving doctor
More trouble is brewing for Irving-based Dr. Hector Molina, whom I mentioned in a recent post after regulators temporarily barred him from performing cosmetic surgery.
The Texas Medical Board said it disciplined Molina because he performed a liposuction in his office despite having little training in the procedure and having previously determined the patient was not a good candidate for it. She suffered "severe complications."
Now the board is signaling interest in Molina's treatment of Ultimate Fighting Championship star Alistair Overeem, the Austin American-Statesman reports.
Sports authorities recently refused to license Overeem for a UFC match in Las Vegas after he tested positive for high levels of testosterone. At a hearing in Nevada, Overeem told the authorities he hadn't knowingly used the banned performance-enhancing drug — and Molina backed him up.
"Molina said he did not tell the fighter the injection contained testosterone," the Statesman reported. "The doctor said that while he typically informed patients about their drugs and had them fill out a consent form, he did neither with Overeem."
Molina injected Overeem in Irving several months ago and gave him more of the drug to self-inject later. It was part of a four-drug "tetra mix" that Molina reportedly prescribed for muscle injury to Overeem and unnamed other pro athletes.
The doctor is a Texas-licensed ringside physician. He first met Overeem in that capacity last year, according to testimony.
Molina was first disciplined by the Texas Medical Board in 2004, because he "prescribed controlled substances and dangerous drugs over the Internet"without examining the patients. One such patient became addicted to a painkiller and ended up in a rehab facility. Molina was fined $25,000 and temporarily lost his ability to prescribe controlled substances.

The Menus: Dinner for 15 Under $300 (see below)
Cocktails for 20 Under $200
Cookies for 20 Under $100
According to A-list event planner Mindy Weiss, the last thing most parties need is more. "Don't stress thinking 'More is more,'" says Weiss, who has handled over-the-top (yet somehow stress-free) celebrations for, among many others, Ellen DeGeneres, Ashlee Simpson, Eva Longoria Parker, Nicole Richie, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony. Take the menu choices. You don't need to pile on exotic or trendy dishes. "I most often find when the client says, 'We need more,' what actually gets eaten is the familiar." As for the decor, remember that "this is your home, not a ballroom." Rather than try to turn your living room into Christmas at the Ritz by buying loads of holiday-specific decorations, "use things you have in your house – that crystal bowl you got as a wedding gift that you don't know what to do with."
Applying that philosophy, Weiss took on PEOPLE's challenge: a full sit-down dinner for less than $300, cocktails for $200 and a dessert party for $100. Doable? "Absolutely," says Weiss. With that budget, "You can entertain in a high-end manner." And don't feel you must follow her every suggestion exactly, she advises. "Get ideas, get inspiration. But put your own personality in too. That's the thing people remember."
Dinner for 15 Under $300To make your holiday dinner a big, expansive affair for 15, go with a buffet rather than passed platters, says Weiss. "I love buffets. A full table makes people feel warm, cozy and secure." Alongside favorite foods, Weiss works in decorative touches. "I pull things from my house and make it an art piece – Lalique statues next to the Brussels sprouts – those things in your home that you think, 'What am I going do with that?'" Or she'll hit flea markets for "vintage Indians and pilgrims." The menu is familiar – and affordable because of it: "The places that sell turkey and cranberries are buying masses of it." But she also thinks people should veer from the standards to "bring in something you grew up with." If homemade pie isn't one of your traditions, fine. It isn't one of hers either. "I stand in line at the bakery for my pie."
The Menu: Roasted Whole Turkey and Gravy
Carrot Pudding Soufflés
Traditional Stuffing
Ruby Salad
Roasted Whole Turkey and Gravy1 tsp. black peppercorns
1 tsp. Sichuan peppercorns
1 tsp. coriander seeds
2 whole cloves
½ tsp. star anise pieces
4 tsp. coarse sea salt
2 tbsp. finely grated peeled ginger (a 5-in. piece)
2 tbsp. finely grated garlic (8 cloves)
2 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened
1 (14 lb.) turkey at room temperature 1 hour, reserving neck and giblets (discard liver)
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
2 bunches scallions, coarsely chopped
2 carrots, coarsely chopped
2 celery ribs, coarsely chopped
6 (¼-in.-thick) slices fresh ginger
1 cup Chinese rice wine, such as Shaoxing, or medium-dry sherry
4 to 5 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp. soy sauce
3 tbsp. cornstarch
Equipment: an electric coffee/spice grinder; kitchen string; a V-shaped roasting rack; a 17- by 14-in. roasting pan; a 1-quart measuring cup; a fat separator (optional)
To prepare turkey:
1. Preheat oven to 450ºF with rack in lowest position.
2. Toast spices with sea salt in a dry small heavy skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and coriander is a shade darker, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to grinder and pulse until finely ground. Reserve 1 tsp. spice mixture, then stir together remaining spice mixture with grated ginger, garlic, and butter to form a paste.
3. Rinse turkey inside and out, then pat dry. Fold neck skin under body. Starting at large cavity end of turkey, gently slide your fingers between skin and flesh of breast and legs to loosen skin, being careful not to tear skin. Using a spoon, slide spice paste under skin of turkey breast and legs, pushing butter out of spoon with a finger on outside of skin (do not put spice paste under turkey skin in advance). Tie drumsticks together with kitchen string and tuck wings under body.
4. Pat giblets and neck pieces dry and cut into 1-in. pieces. Heat vegetable oil in a 12-in. heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté giblets and neck pieces, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add scallions, carrots, celery, and sliced ginger and sauté, stirring, until lightly browned, about 8 minutes.
5. Add rice wine and boil, stirring and scraping up any brown bits, 1 minute. Stir in 4 cups broth, soy sauce, and reserved tsp. spice mixture and bring to a boil. Pour mixture into roasting pan, then set rack in roasting pan, arranging neck pieces and vegetables around rack as necessary (liquid should be just below bottom of rack).
6. Roast turkey on rack, rotating pan 180 degrees halfway through roasting, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into fleshy part of thighs (test both, close to but not touching bone) registers 170ºF, 1 ½ to 2 hours.
7. Carefully tilt turkey so juices from inside large cavity run into roasting pan, then transfer turkey to a platter, reserving juices in roasting pan. Let turkey stand, uncovered, 30 minutes (temperature of thigh meat will rise to 175º).
8. Make gravy while turkey stands: Strain pan juices through a large fine-mesh sieve into 1-quart measure, pressing hard on and then discarding solids, and let stand until fat rises to top. Skim off and discard fat. (If using a fat separator, pour pan juices through sieve into separator and let stand until fat rises to top, 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully pour pan juices from separator into measuring cup, discarding fat.) You should have 4 cups stock. If there is less, add more broth. If there's more, boil to reduce. Transfer all but ½ cup stock to a heavy medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
Whisk together cornstarch and ½ cup reserved stock in a small bowl until smooth, then whisk into boiling stock and boil, whisking occasionally, 2 minutes. Serve turkey with gravy.

I purchased my first smartphone about 4 years ago, it was an Apple iPhone 3GS. I turned into the "there's an app for that" guy and spent weeks finding the best apps for everything I wanted to accomplish with my phone. Before long I learned about jailbreaking and, of course, had to give it a shot. This opened up a whole new world of possibilities for the iPhone, giving features that would not be supported by Apple until 2-3 generations later, or in some cases never at all. This isn't a post about jailbreaking, so I won't go into detail, but multi-tasking, copy & paste, and the notification center were just a few critical features that were available well before Apple rolled them into iOS.
When iPhone 4 was released I refused to buy one until it was possible to jailbreak it. The same thing happened with the release of the 4s. While many Apple fans waited in line, I sat online scouring jailbreak websites waiting for a compatible jailbreak to become available.
I was happy with my jailbroken iPhone 4s, but started seeing more and more phones around with much larger screens. The iPhone 5 was going to be the answer to the small screen problem, but when it was officially announced, I took one look at the new specs and two days later bought myself a Samsung Galaxy S3.
The following are my comparisons between some of the major functions on Android vs. iPhone.

Upgrade ready-to-wear and home-sewn jackets with tailoring lessons from alterations expert Angela Wolf. Discover the secrets of ready-to-wear jacket construction as you go inside the seams, and find out how to tell whether or not a jacket can be altered. Use the petite adjustment to remove side-seam wrinkles. Raise shoulders for perfect seam placement and jacket sleeves for a better fit through the arms. Take in side seams, center-back and princess seams for a better fit and a slenderizing look. Hem lined jackets from the bottom for the length you want. Plus, hem sleeves from the shoulder to preserve buttonholes or embroidery decorations. Get comfortable identifying fit issues and tailoring jackets to look and feel custom-made.
Meet your instructor, Angela Wolf, and learn more about the tailoring skills covered in your class. If you're looking to go into the alterations business, Angela offers tips throughout.
Angela demonstrates how to get at the interior of your jacket without removing the lining as she gives you a tour of jacket features. Then jump right into altering a boxy jacket into a more fitted garment, making adjustments for petite figures and taking in princess seams.
What can and cannot be altered? It depends on the fabric and cut of the jacket. Angela shows you some examples, then walks you through the standard alterations on a jacket that is too big.
As jacket sizes increase, the shoulders get larger, too - often unnecessarily. Learn how to raise the shoulders on a too-large jacket or an '80s relic for a custom, contemporary fit.
Don't let sleeves scare you! If you can't hem a sleeve cuff because of buttons or other design details, you'll have to shorten at the shoulder. Angela demystifies the process with step-by-step instruction.
You can hem a fully lined jacket without fuss by following along with Angela. You'll mark your stitch lines, make a template of the front curves, add interfacing and resew, then turn your jacket right-side-out for the big voilà!
"Highly recommended for medium to experienced sewers, and as a follow-up of Angela's previous classes, which I haven't taken yet. A great course if you're into repurposing old garments and reinventing or personalizing those unique thrift shop or rare discount-aisle finds! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this course (...) The sections on hemming from the shoulder and all of Angela's shortcuts for making custom pattern sections where you would want to recreate a specific curve (or angle) were invaluable to me! "

Lynch signs with Bears
Just a few minutes after the conclusion of the 2014 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears signed former Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch to a free-agent contract.
While it's unsure of whether the Bears will use him at quarterback — some say he's better suited for running back at the next level — Lynch heads into the NFL after his agent Cliff Brady confirmed the signing with ESPN. Lynch tweeted nothing but "BEARDOWN!!!" just before 7 p.m. Saturday.
Lynch broke his own NCAA single-season rushing record for a QB with 1,920 yards and 23 touchdowns last year, finishing third in the Heisman voting, the highest for any Mid-American Conference player. While he went undrafted, the former Mount Carmel star was quickly snatched up by his home team.
By Jay Taft
Rockford Register Star
I will keep hearing it, over and over again: "Ha ha. Ha ha."
And although Chicago Bears General Manager Phil Emery never reached too far off the charts on any of his seven player choices in this year's NFL Draft, and he just may have finished strong, that silly little voice will haunt me for quite awhile anyway.
"Ha ha. Ha ha."
I love the defensive tackles — Ego Ferguson and Will Sutton — that the Bears added to their roster on Day 2 of the draft. That's how you begin to stop the run, with the big, mean, ugly guys in the trenches. And with the free-agent additions of Jared Allen and Lamarr Houston, I can see an end to the miserable front line of defenses for ground support.
While I'm slightly confused that they drafted a running back (Ka'Deem Carey from Arizona), a quarterback (David Fales from San Jose State), and a punter (Pat O'Donnell of Miami), I do like their choices there, anyway. And while it wasn't anywhere near the one I wanted, at least they did make a concerted effort to fill their most glaring need, at safety (Brock Vereen from Minnesota), before the entire 2014 NFL Draft came to a close.
But, regardless of what kind of grade I give the Chicago Bears for their third (and even second and third) day of drafting — A- and B-, respectively — I know I will still have the same recurring dream I had Thursday and Friday nights. Yep, I fully expect to see the annoying leader of the school bullies from "The Simpsons," Nelson Mandela Muntz, show up fully clad in Packers' paraphernalia, soon to belt out one of his loud and patented "Ha ha's," rubbing it in all over again.
If you haven't figured it out yet, the dream is symbolic of the player the Bears should have taken, but who is now studying a Packers' playbook over on Lombardi Avenue. As soon as Chicago passed on the safety that I thought they should be coveting, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix out of Alabama, and the Packers took him seven picks later, I knew the nightmares would kick in.
As Bears fans, lets just hope the nightmares don't continue on the field, with Ha Ha making plays to beat the Bears, instead of to help them against teams like the Packers. (And then with Packer fans chanting "Ha ha, ha ha" as they exit Soldier Field.)
Page 2 of 2 - Because of his toughness, his closing speed, his coverage skills, his leadership qualities, his football smarts — because of all of that, I believed there was no way the Bears would pass up on a safety of that caliber with their 14th pick. Not only did they do so willingly, and without malice, but their archrivals went and snatched him up for their own about 45 minutes later.
Ouch. Oh wait, I mean "Ha ha."
I have this nasty feeling in my gut that while Kyle Fuller — the Bears' first-round pick instead of Clinton-Dix — may just turn into a solid nickel defensive back right away, and could morph into a good replacement for Charles Tillman at corner in the near future, it's going to be the guy that got away that will haunt us.
The latest round of proverbial "Ha ha's" shouted from Green Bay to Chicago came when the Packers went 8-7-1 and beat out the 8-8 Bears for last year's NFC North championship. Another one was heard on Thursday when they took the player the Bears should have grabbed.
Will it continue on the field?
Here's hoping the Bears get the last laugh after all.

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
Degrees and schools: Ph.D., history, Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 2003; M.A. history, Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 1994; B.A. history, University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, 1989; B. Music Education, instrumental—oboe, Milton College, Milton, Wisconsin, 1973.
Originally from: Elkhorn, Wisconsin.
Courses taught: I teach all U.S. history courses that cover up to the mid-19th century. Those include Topics, my 100-level course, The American Revolution, Colonial America, and The Civil War. Among those is a course I usually offer in the summer called Horses, Hardtack, and Heroes: The Civil War in Film and Literature.
I really enjoy the class because we spend a lot of time talking about how the war is remembered. I also teach a couple of courses that consider a broader piece of history—beyond the 19th century. These are American Women's History and the Introduction to Public History. That course is wide ranging. It explores how academic history is transmitted to the broader public through archives, films, museums and a host of other media.
What I like about Saint Vincent: As a historian the thing I like best is this place. The presence of those who were here before us is everywhere! Everyday from my desk I can see the beautiful weathered red brick exterior of Alfred Hall through my neighbor's window. It reminds me that the past is always part of who we are.
My most memorable moment: This is easy. The first day I came to work. I came in very early in the morning, about 7 a.m. I drove in to the parking lot in front of the Basilica. The campus seemed deserted. I met no one in the halls, found my office and went to work. Sometime early in the afternoon I decided to take a break and walk around campus. When I left the building I was completely shocked to see the mass of people wandering around—Steelers' camp! I don't know if I missed something in my interview or if I was never told but it was a shock to me.
What most people don't know about me: I used to play a cornet that was built in 1857.

In the mountains of northern Luzon in the Philippines, the Ifugao people cultivate rice on elaborate terraces with intricate irrigation systems, a landscaping effort grand enough to have earned designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

With a new iPhone in the works for later this year, consumers in Los Angeles sound off on what they'd like to see in a new model.
LOS ANGELES — Consumers love their iPhones, but in the next generation of the device they want to see one that is more advanced than the crop of new competitors.
With expectations building that Apple could unveil a new iPhone in June, when it traditionally holds its Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco, we asked consumers what new features top wish lists.
Bill Police, a machinist in Rialto, Calif., says he'd like to see "improved GPS to get me places faster, with more detail." He says his wife owns an Android phone by HTC, which has better graphics. "In terms of technology, Apple has fallen behind. It's time to up their game."
Since the release of the iPhone 5 in October, competition has gotten more heated, with Samsung's Galaxy line of phones emerging as the chief competitor to Apple's innovation crown. A new Galaxy, the S4, is expected in stores at the end of the month, sporting a 5-inch screen and a standout feature: the ability to respond to some eye movements.
HTC's One phone is also slated for April and BlackBerry's Q10 keyboard-sporting phone is due either this month or May.
With the new iPhone, "I want a screen comparable to the Galaxy," says Shynolan Reese, a Houston police officer. "I want a bigger screen — at least 4.5 inches." (The iPhone 5 screen is 4 inches.)
Elizabeth Zamora, a marketing professional from Dallas, gave us a wish list of features, starting with the ability to scan QR codes from the iPhone camera. Currently you have to acquire and open a QR scanner app to point at those squiggly little graphic codes, which take you directly to a given website.
She'd also like to see the home screen feature weather information or a mini agenda. "Would be nice to see this every morning when I wake up," she tells us, in an e-mail exchange.
Also on her list: "Wireless charging!"
Tom Zangriles, who works for Boeing in St. Louis, sent us a direct message on Twitter to say he hopes the zoom feature for the camera could be "controlled by the volume buttons." He currently has an iPhone 5.
Brian Carter, a recent college grad from the Washington, D.C., area, connected with us via Skype. He'd like to see a fingerprint feature on the next iPhone to replace passwords.
"It would save you more time to get into your phone, and it would give you more security as well."
Shannon Gilstad, who works with a New York City non-profit, says she wants to see a return to the previous iPhone charger connection. The successor, Lightning, isn't compatible with iPhone accessories without the purchase of an adapter.
Clayton Holderness, who works in marketing from Salt Lake City, says he'd like to see all the storage on the next iPhone go cloud-based, as he's always running out of room. "My phone itself isn't able to keep up with the amount of data and pictures and files I need access to," he says.
Apple's iCloud service offers free storage space for 5 gigabytes of online backup, but the original stays on the phone. In a perfect world, he would snap a photo on the iPhone, and it would be stored in the cloud, so when he opened his Camera Roll app, he'd be looking at a virtual copy, and not one that physically resided on the phone. Thus, no storage issues with the phone.
"I'd like to see everything cloud based with the option of iPhone download in case you're traveling without service or Wi-Fi."

Solution Description
Simple, Efficient, Scale-out Storage
The EMC Isilon OneFS operating system combines the three layers of traditional storage architectures—file system, volume manager, and data protection—into one unified software layer running on an EMC Isilon storage cluster.
With an EMC Isilon OneFS single pool of storage, healthcare organizations can eliminate operation of multiple volumes and manage their big data storage without the risks of downtime and volume-size limits.
Separate, Secure Storage Pools
EMC Isilon has teamed with Vormetric to deliver a highly scalable clustered network-attached storage (NAS) solution with encryption and key management capabilities. This solution protects sensitive information and facilitates compliance with a variety of security requirements. With unique encryption keys, separate department picture archiving and communications systems (PACS) or separate facilities in various partitions can securely manage image data.
Path to VNA
The next evolutionary step in managing complete hospital image data is the new concept of the vendor-neutral archive (VNA). This type of data management system consolidates medical images from multiple imaging departments into a master directory. The consolidated VNA replaces the individual archives associated with departmental PACS.
EMC Isilon storage solutions support VNA functionality with features such as data duplication, automated tier-to-tier media migrations, security, and metadata management—all within a system that's fully scalable and highly efficient.

Despite packed stands and spectators lined around the fence, the Bishop England football team took away Porter-Gaud's home advantage this past Friday night with several big scoring drives in the rivalry game referred to as "The Holy War."
Junior linebacker Lawton Fosberry returned two interceptions for touchdowns, including one for 100 yards, as the Battling Bishops (1-2) beat the Cylcones, 33-14.
Senior tailback Nick Shiver was also no stranger to big plays. He scored the game's first touchdown on a 74-yard run and then sealed the victory with a fourth quarter scoring scamper of 37 yards.
"We have to be able to run the ball even if they put eight people in the box," Bishop England coach John Cantey said afterward.
Porter-Gaud sophomore quarterback Steven Duncan completed 17 of 39 passes for 225 yards and one touchdown but threw four interceptions – split evenly by the Fosberry brothers.
The oldest brother of the pair, Reed, is getting the majority of quarterback snaps now for the Battling Bishops. Cantey first named fellow senior Jack Wilson as the starter but is now leaning toward playing Reed more because of his playmaking abilities.
Fosberry plays defensive back, as well, so he is unable to be both a full-time quarterback and safety. "We're just focusing on us," Cantey said. "That's what we have to do for the rest of the year. We probably made a positive step tonight, but it wasn't as big of a positive step as I thought we would."
For the Cylones, wide receiver Foster Moe had 10 catches for 139 yards and a pair of touchdowns – one on a 24-yard catch and another on a 1-yard pitch from Duncan at the goal line. Cantey praised the play of Porter-Gaud senior lineman Phillips Marshall, who gave the Bishops blocking problems.
Porter-Gaud was without sophomore running back Allen Walters, who tore his ACL, MCL and PCL earlier this season, according to his Twitter account.
Bishop England senior linebacker Richard Mahon collected six solo tackles, three assists, two sacks and a fumble recovery.

Associated Press
CHARLESTON - Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin's bid to rewrite teacher hiring practices has sparked an early battle as the Legislature wades through his proposed overhaul of West Virginia's public schools.
Much of the fight revolves around seniority. Tomblin wants it placed among eight factors, including specialized training, relevant experience and academic credentials. County boards would decide which to emphasize when choosing applicants.
The bill also would allow counties to repost job openings to attract additional applicants. It calls on boards to consider what principals and faculty senates recommend, while providing a process for faculty to interview and then weigh in on candidates. Other proposed changes include scaling back seniority's role in transfers when teaching posts are reduced within a school or a county, a process known as bumping.
Supporters include superintendents in counties both large and small, who say these provisions grant needed flexibility. Groups representing teachers have denounced them while objecting to the bulk of Tomblin's overall legislation.
The American Federation of Teachers-West Virginia warned members in a bulletin last week that the proposed changes shortchange long-serving educators and "severely impair teacher bidding rights for vacancies."
"It takes us back to the day when hiring was very subjective, when you could hire your nephew right out of school," AFT-WV President Judy Hale said.
Dale Lee, president of the West Virginia Education Association, questioned the governor's decision to include these provisions in his bill.
"No one has shown me how the current system doesn't provide the most qualified teacher," Lee said. "It plays to the misconception out there that seniority is the deciding factor, and it's not."
County boards are now supposed to give equal weight to seniority and six other factors when applicants include current educators. But state law also requires a written explanation when a candidate with the most seniority isn't picked, if that candidate requests one. Tomblin's bill removes that language.
"It's my feeling that it does weigh heavily toward seniority as one of the criteria," Wood County schools Superintendent Pat Law said of the existing process. "Ultimately, when you are trying to find the best candidate, many times the most senior person is absolutely the best person for the job. However, there are times when seniority and having the credential doesn't create the best choice for instruction in that classroom."
West Virginia's fastest-growing school district, Berkeley County, would benefit from the proposed changes, said Superintendent Manny Arvon. The state's second-largest school system, Berkeley typically hires 170 to 180 teachers a year, Arvon estimated. Besides seeing enrollment increase by 6,100 students in the 16 years he's been superintendent, Berkeley County constantly loses teachers to districts in neighboring Maryland and Virginia that offer markedly higher salaries, Arvon said.
While seniority is not always a factor in his county, given the turnover, "the language in the bill helps the school keep the best teacher, and not always the most senior one," Arvon said.
"Seniority probably has its place but it shouldn't be the deciding factor," Arvon said. "The job should always go to the best teacher."
Both Arvon and Pendleton County schools Superintendent Doug Lambert said they've always tried to include teachers and principals in hiring decisions. Both welcomed that part of Tomblin's measure.
"If they're going to work in your building, you ought to have a say as to whether they fit in that building," said Lambert, a superintendent for eight years.
Lambert, whose district includes around 1,100 students and 92 teachers, said seniority can play an oversized role. Being allowed to re-post a vacancy also would help his small county, if the initial applicant or two it now draws aren't good fits, he said.
"Counties are unique and what I like about the bill is that it recognizes they are unique," Lambert said.
Tomblin's 179-page bill follows a wide-ranging audit of West Virginia's education system that contrasted low student performance with hefty public spending. Scrutinizing the high volume of rules and top-heavy bureaucracy, the audit said the current hiring policy "is extremely restrictive and provides no incentives or creative options for districts to attract or retain high-quality teachers, especially in low-income areas of the state."
"During this review, several interviewees cited examples of times principals will choose to employ long-term substitute teachers rather than hire a current employee, who on paper meets the criteria for the position, but whom they believe is not the best match for the job," the audit report said.
The Senate Education Committee began reviewing Tomblin's bill last week, and expects to hear from the teachers' groups and other interested parties during further meetings this week.

(Editor's note: This month, we asked Tribune readers to share their holiday memories. We will print these memories through Christmas Day.)
There are all sorts of memories when it comes to this time of the year, good and bad.
I grew up in a small town in Illinois where at that time most everyone knew the parents and the kids. The schools all had Christmas plays that were enjoyed by all, and we all watched out for each other.
During the Christmas of 1962, my parents, more especially my dad, was happy because the house he had found was one he was planning on buying. Mom did not have a job outside the home so dad was our sole provider and worked at two jobs.
The house was heated by coal heat, which was the case with most of the homes then. My job that dad "gave" me was to clean out the clinkers from the furnace every day and fill it up with coal. Then carry out those clinkers to the alley and scatter them and dad would drive the car back and forth to flatten and even them out. In those days the alleys were not paved.
Dec. 25 arrived and mom, dad and I were going to spend the evening with some very close friends across town. After an enjoyable evening we returned home in the snow. The house was a large one and dad could not afford to heat the upstairs where I slept, so I was sleeping on a cot in our dining room across from mom and dad's bedroom.
Dad came over and asked if I had a nice Christmas, and I really did and told him so as he bent down to kiss me good night. That night was the last time I saw him because on Dec. 26, 1962, Mom woke me and said she needed help with dad.
He was lying between the bathroom and the kitchen and unconscious. At that time CPR was not around as of yet so we did try to help but would have not helped because my father was already dead from a massive heart attack. He was 39 years old.
It will be 50 years on Dec. 26 and this memory will always be as clear as the day it happened for me. I have had many happy memories since but just this one is one I will never forget. I was only 14 years old.
Robert R. Chapman lives in Greeley.

UNIVERSITY PARK - On a day when Penn State honored its 1986 team that won the national championship with less-than-stellar offense, the Nittany Lions of today showed some old-school toughness.
Their defense has played well almost all year.
The difference Saturday was an offensive line that played up to its potential and escorted a running game that punished Iowa en route to a 13-3 victory on a glorious afternoon at Beaver Stadium.
Article Video
"We kind of challenged them," Joe Paterno said of the offensive line.
The unit that had been inconsistent and penalty-prone responded by not allowing a sack and pounding out 240 rushing yards. Without a single false start.
"It's a certain attitude, and that's what happened today," Lion senior guard DeOn'tae Pannell said. "We wanted to take it to them."
The offensive line got stronger as the game unfolded and stuffed the ball down the Hawkeyes' throat in the fourth quarter - rushing 10 straight times to the Iowa 2 before a 2-yard touchdown pass with 8:08 left gave Penn State a two-score lead Iowa could not overcome.
Not even a 10-yard hold (on Michael Zordich) that wiped out Silas Redd's 18-yard touchdown discouraged the plan. And twice on third down - third-and-4 from the Iowa 17 and third-and-5 from the Hawkeyes' 8 - the Lions converted with runs of 5 yards (Curtis Dukes) and 6 (Redd).
"Statement drive," senior offensive tackle Chima Okoli said. "[Our attitude was] I'm going to run this ball, and you've got to stop it."
Iowa could not.
The Lions' drive came on the heels of a brutal interception in which Matt McGloin was picked in the end zone - after driving 90 yards from the PSU 4 to the Iowa 6 late in the third quarter with PSU leading 6-3.
"Frustrating," Pannell said. "We get down there and turn it over in the red zone, which has been a problem all year."
While McGloin once again outplayed starter Rob Bolden - and this time got most of the snaps - his interception could have been crippling. But with Redd and Dukes averaging 5.1 and 6.7 yards per crack, Penn State went back to the run and stuck with it.
"Some of the young backs are getting a better feel for the holes," Paterno said.
Until the coaching staff commits to McGloin - and even if or when it does - this is not a football team that will win consistently by averaging the 33 attempts it did for the first five games.
Saturday, it attempted 26.
"Redd is probably the best athlete I've seen," fullback Joe Suhey said. "He has the ability to break every play."
So as the Lions hit the midway point at 5-1, they may have decided to embrace their old identity.
"For us to be the type of football team we want to be, we have got to be able to run the ball better than we did the first five games," offensive coordinator Galen Hall said. "We have to finish drives. We can't settle for field goals."
They've determined they have a better chance to do that by emphasizing the run game in the red zone, and that may be a victory in itself.

Machine threaded over patterns ID request
November 18, 2012, 11:47:42 PM »
This general topic was discussed under a query about Moresque glass, but the pictures and webpages that were referenced are no longer available (except for one picture of salts). From the dialog, I don't think any of these examples would have been discussed. There was one piece that had diamonds, but it was described as "Ruby body, diamond moulded, amber threads" while my diamond bowl is amber glass with ruby (cranberry) threads. I was wondering if the first picture of the vase could possibly be Moresque, but it is clear threads over clear glass and other references to Moresque have had a colored body. The plate with the flower petal bottom has a ruby glass center fading to an amber outer body and has amber threads. The striped plate is clear glass with ruby (cranberry) threads. I know at least four English glassmakers made this type of glass. Are any of these patterns recognizeable? Thanks for your help!

Cathy Your first example (001), the clear vase that looks yellow to me, is definitely Stevens & Williams
. The underlying moulded pattern of interlocking ogee-shaped arching is shown in the drawing accompanying S&W's registered design No. 137288 of November 4, 1889 (see Gulliver p.266). Colour, or the lack of it, is irrelevant. Don't worry about the lack of a registration lozenge. As a US export piece, a lozenge would have been meaningless, and, worse, it would have indicated to US glassworks that the pattern could have been freely copied for the US market without fear of legal action.
Your fourth item, the threaded plate, is a mystery to me.
003 and 002 are very similar in both colourway and underlying pattern to a tazza that I had through my hands recently, which I had attributed to Frederick Stuart, apparently privately developed by him while in the Stuart & Mills partnership, and launched by him on the dissolution of this partnership and his acquisition of the lease of the Red House glassworks from Philip Pargeter in 1881. The launch of a tazza in this style on its own would not have made marketing sense, so it is reasonable to assume a variety of shapes. Gulliver (2002) p.199 bottom left shows such a tazza, here not attributed. But that was ten years ago, and it was Mervyn Gulliver who pointed out to me that the tazza he had not attributed in his book was actually Stuart pattern No. 3890, with a pattern book date of around 1882. He has also found other shapes, for example pattern 4009 was a shallow bowl with a gently crimped rim and three scroll feet. His example of 4009 had 14 crimps around the rim, just like your 002. These two are, without any doubt whatsoever, Frederick Stuart, Red House Glassworks (Stuart & Sons from 1885).

More thoughts on the colourway of 003, 002, my own and Mervyn's tazzas.
Cathy I was fortunate to have my tazza in my possession for a long time, so I became very familiar with it. Despite this, and despite examining it from all angles, with a loupe, and in various types of light, I am still not sure what colours were used. I was hoping for an example from the range with a deeply ground out and polished pontil scar, and/or a damaged example which might have resolved my uncertainty. I thought I could see green in there somewhere, and couldn't figure out where that came from. I didn't eliminate the possibility of the main glass being cased, made up of different layers. I'm still not completely certain that there isn't air-trap in there!
You seem more certain. Have you considered other possibilities?

I am not seeing any air-trap in the diamond patterned bowl, so I don't think it was cased, and the colors are fairly obvious (amber with ruby threading). On the other hand, the flower petal patterned piece is partially cased using amber and ruby glass. There are teeny tiny bubbles in a line all around the outline of the petals and the lower diamonds (it's hard to see the diamonds in the photo). I am not sure that such small bubbles would qualify it as a air-trap piece, but they are there and accentuate the outline of the pattern.
I think the striped low bowl or plate is quite interesting, although I haven't figured out how it was made. It is only 6 1/4" in diameter, with a large, highly polished pontil mark. There are 90 stripes in this piece, and the threading undulates over the stripes and dips down between the stripes. However, the dips look pressed down as if a crimping tool was used, but that doesn't make sense. In any case, the effect is quite striking.

UNIVERSITY PARK - The Jerry Sandusky scandal and subsequent NCAA sanctions have created a long recovery road for the Penn State football team.
That road added a few more miles - uphill - Saturday.
With hopes of turning the page toward a brighter future, before a spirited if not sold-out backdrop of 97,186 fans, the Nittany Lions began the 2012 season by collapsing in the second half of what turned into a 24-14 loss to Ohio University.
Since his hiring in January, Bill O'Brien has shouldered the unenviable burden of being the face of Penn State, and he was only looking in the mirror for a place to lay the blame for his career record falling to 0-1.
"We have to coach a lot better," he said. "It starts with me: I've got to coach better."
In a short postgame press conference that would have pleased his tight-lipped former boss, Bill Belichick, O'Brien made reference no fewer than 15 times to having to coach better.
He was being too tough on himself, but, to his credit, O'Brien was keeping the glare off his players - players who certainly have endured too much over the past year.
O'Brien did allow that "there were a lot of good things on both sides of the ball," that Penn State can build on. But he was most disappointed that the team lacked a knockout punch after putting a very impressive Ohio team - which may well go unbeaten - on the ropes.
"They beat us," O'Brien said. "We lost to a better team today."
That's true.
While Penn State came out with a refreshing spread-the-field offense and converted an early fourth-and-1 from midfield - with a pass out of the shotgun, no less - and racked up 237 of their 352 yards in the first half, the Lions hurt themselves with two brutal early fumbles.
In questioning himself, O'Brien didn't get specific, but the decision to have linebacker Gerald Hodges as a featured returner for kickoffs and punts would top the list. This team lacks depth as it is. Putting one of its most important players in that role exposes him. After an early fumble, Hodges was replaced.
O'Brien deflected a question on whether the Lions wore down and whether the emotional offseason caught up in the second half. The game was played in 86-degree heat .
Players also dismissed that notion, saying they were fresh, but no coaching staff can witness being outscored 21-0 after building a halftime 14-3 lead and feel like it didn't leave part of its game on the practice field.
"Nobody was breathing heavy," quarterback Matt McGloin said. "Guys had relaxed faces in the huddle. We're in great shape. We were in better shape than they were."
That's debatable since Ohio got stronger as the game went on and converted a staggering 11-of-12 third-down opportunities in the second half.
McGloin thought O'Brien had the Lions well prepared, and that the Lions themselves "couldn't make the plays when we needed to."
He added, "Coach O'Brien is doing a tremendous, tremendous job. We were prepared. We did everything we wanted to do. He was his normal self - calm, relaxed, calling great plays. It's on us. We feel badly we couldn't get him his first win."
Linebacker Michael Mauti felt the same way, saying, "We didn't get any turnovers, and that usually decides the game."
Beyond losing and squandering a chance to excite a home crowd looking for a boost, injuries to this depleted squad began piling up with at least five starters (see related story) nursing various injuries during the game.
That underscores the challenge of next week's game at Virginia.
"You saw flashes of how good we can be," McGloin said.
"This is one game," O'Brien said. "It's a long season. We can still be a good football team."
Plus it's not like his successor's coaching debut was more impressive, although it was a win. Joe Paterno liked to tell the story of his career opener in 1966 against Maryland. Penn State won, 15-7, thanks to three safeties by Altoona's Mike Reid.
Afterward, Paterno went to midfield looking for Maryland coach Lou Saban, who was no where to be found.
Saban called Paterno a day or so later, saying, "We were both so lousy I didn't have the heart to congratulate anybody."
On Saturday, 46 years later, O'Brien and Frank Solich met at midfield after the game and shook hands. Solich's team was a worthy victor.
And O'Brien's first-game performance will get better.
