Fashion week always brims with the possibility of discovering new names. Here are some fresh faces with varied histories that will present their fall wares next week.
This story first appeared in the February 14, 2008 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Where and when: Based in Milan, the brand was launched in 2005 and will show Sunday at 5 p.m., at 58 Corso Italia.
Who: Since its inception, the person behind Normaluisa has remained a tightly guarded secret, which has added to the brand's appeal. What's known is that the person graduated with a degree in business from a university, took a styling class, holds a master's degree in marketing and now coordinates a design team. Apparently, though, fashion runs in this person's veins, as his family owned a textile company in the 18th century.
Why: Normaluisa's mission is to shun excess in favor of good taste with an edge, via sophisticated color combinations and details. Anything that is too experimental, ostentatious or impractical doesn't belong here. Sharon Stone and Charlotte Casiraghi have been spotted wearing Normaluisa clothes.
What: For fall, the collection focuses on colors, textures, geometries and trompe l'oeil effects that suggest rhythm. Aside from traditional fabrics, Normaluisa employs plastic and upholstery materials for simple and geometric styles in powder beige, pansy blue, river green and skyscraper gray.
How much: Wholesale prices range from $58 for a top to $161 for a dress to $584 for coats.
Where to buy: The line is carried by Giò Moretti in Milan, S. Carlo in Turin, Montaigne Market in Paris and Mercury in Mosca.
Les Hommes-Femmes
Where and when: A small women's collection bowed in 2006 but fall marks the line's first real presentation during Milan Fashion Week in their designers' new showroom at 6 Via Bergamo.
Who: Belgian designers Tom Notte and Bart Vandebosch launched the successful men's wear label Les Hommes in 2002, now available in 87 points of sales worldwide. Both designers graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and have worked together ever since. Vandebosch has always nurtured a passion for art, while Notte originally signed up to study economic sciences. He later defected to graphic and fashion design classes. Their work is the result of the union of their sensibilities and different visions.
Why: With the women's line, the duo wants to offer a contemporary creativity by combining contrasting elements that work once they're unified. Silhouettes are sculptured and sharp, but at the same time poetic and elegant and punctuated with sartorial details.
What: For fall, they draw from couture's heyday with a nod to Christian Dior and Cristóbal Balenciaga. The lineup includes balloon coats with double collars, asymmetrical necklines that transform into draped lapels, sumptuous skirts and dresses and men's wear fabrics. The palette includes all shades of gray, plunging into black, with accents of red and gold for printed silks.
How much: Jackets and coats wholesale for an average of $584; skirts range from $256 to $731.
Where to buy: The line is carried by Harvey Nichols in Hong Kong, Saks Fifth Avenue in Dubai, Tsum in Moscow, Verso in Antwerp and Tokyo's Restir.
I'm Isola Marras
When and where: Antonio Marras' secondary line will make its debut Feb. 18 during an art exhibition called Circolo Marras hosted by the designer at his showroom, 8 Via Cola di Rienzo.
Who: It's the young and contemporary vision of Antonio Marras, who also designs a namesake line and is Kenzo's creative director. Marras is known for his skill in melding contrasting fabrics, cutting soft shapes and liberally applying drapes, undertucks and ruffles.
Why: The name comes from Marras' native island, Sardinia, where he still has a design studio. Casual and affordable, the new line is licensed to Italian manufacturer Interfashion, owned by Stefanel Group. With the 190-piece lineup, Marras wants to reach a wider and younger crowd. "I'm Isola represents my 'B' side, the most joyous and playful part of myself," said Marras.
Interfashion is one of the top producers and distributors of high-end jeans and casualwear.
"We have experimented a lot with fabrics and furnishing. The result is a very strong collection based on Marras' design codes," said Interfashion chief executive Gino Trentin. Interfashion hopes to secure more than 800 points of sales worldwide in two years, with wholesale volume of 25 million euros, or $36 million, over the same period.
What: For fall, Marras worked his signature mix-and-match vision by liberally melding denim, tartan, stripes, prints and red and white polkadots. Colors are a fresh mix of red, turquoise, orange and yellow combined with grey, black and white.
How much: Retail prices range from $218 for slim-fit jeans to $640 for a blouson jacket and $1,000 for a quilted coat.
Where and when: Steinunn Sigurd went solo in 2000, when the designer, who hails from Iceland, returned to her homeland to find her roots. Her collection will launch Feb. 23 at 2 Via Valenza as one of the designers promoted by White Club, a nonprofit organization that supports emerging talents.
Who: Sigurd has years of experience at Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Gucci and La Perla and is now backed by investors at Baugur Group. The 46-year-old Sigurd works with prints from artists, and her textures are inspired by nature. She uses fabrics from Scotland, Italy and England and mixes materials and textures, like fur strips and wool, mohair with glitter, or rayon knitted with ruffles. Sigurd continues to work out of Reykjavik and counts a store in the city. "This land is enormously beautiful, the textures in the country are mind-blowing," she said. The collection is made in Copenhagen, the Baltic countries, Italy and Hong Kong and is available at 16 stores around the world, including Takashimaya in New York.
How much: Wholesale prices range from $223 for a knitted dress to $590 for a woven one. Pants wholesale at about $247 and skirts at $386. The designer also is an art buff, teaches at art schools and collects Icelandic modern art works.
What: For fall, Sigurd draws inspiration from Iceland's volcanic land and contrasts and an old crochet technique. "The designs blend soft and feminine touches with more primitive aesthetics," she said. Accordingly, chiffon blouses are mixed with lavalike textures, and a mostly black and blue palette is enriched with orange. Shapes are long and lean.
Kristian Aadvenik
Where and when: After showing off-calendar in London, Aadvenik is promoted by White Club and will present on Feb. 22 at 4:30 at 2 Via Valenza.
Who: Born in Norway, Aadvenik, 30, graduated from the Royal College of Art in London in 2002 and launched his own line in 2004 after working for Harrods International, Charles Jourdan and Alexander McQueen.
Why: He's on people's radar because his Gothic and rock 'n' roll style caught Donatella Versace's eye, who picked him as her protégé for an Australian Merino project last month.
What: Inspired by his travels, for fall Aadvenik mixes feminine and romantic looks contrasting with hard rock and Gothic designs. He explores the East and Transylvania (Gothic), the underground London club scene (rock) and Paris (romantic). The materials and colors reflect the contrasts, with jersey and floaty chiffon juxtaposed with leather and more tailored pieces. Dark metallics are lightened up by streaks of gold, silver or fuchsia. "I don't want a look or a silhouette to be too feminine or girly," said the designer.
How much: The collection wholesales from $487 to $584.
Where to buy: Available at boutiques such as The Shop at Bluebird, London; Plumage, Moscow; Bugatti, Dubai, and La Vetrina di Beryl, Milan.

Australian coach Darren Lehmann says the umpires could have handled better the tense finale to the fifth Test that led to play being abandoned for bad light and Michael Clarke in a physical confrontation with Pakistani official Aleem Dar.

Angry Aussies and urinating Brits
The Ashes series wrapped up amid much controversy as Australian captain Michael Clarke has a heated exchange with an umpire and England has been accused on urinating on the pitch.
Dar was seen to push the visiting captain away from him and fellow umpire Kumar Dharmasena as they checked the reading on a light meter that would lead them seconds later, at 7.36pm, to call off the day's play with the Test ending in a draw and England taking the series 3-0.
England at the time were only 21 runs short of victory, with four overs remaining following a sporting declaration at tea from Clarke that left the hosts a target of 227 from 44 overs.
Clarke was frustrated at the time it took for the light meter to be brought onto the ground by fourth official Richard Kettleborough, believing conditions were significantly darker than when a day's play was stopped on the fourth afternoon of the third Test at Old Trafford, when he was batting.
The International Cricket Council is likely to review the altercation between Dar and Clarke, who asked the umpire not to touch him.
''It could have been handled better by the umpires,'' Lehmann said. ''But at the end of the day we've had light issues throughout the series. If you've got a reading you've got to take it.''
Clarke and the umpires were booed at the presentation afterwards by the home fans but Lehmann was quick to remind them that it was his captain's ploy that allowed the last session of the series to be so engaging rather than simply fizzle out to a draw.
''We were quite happy to lose a game to set up the game,'' Lehmann said. ''English fans have been great all summer but to come out and see that on the last day I think it is outstanding from Michael and the set-up that we tried to do. That's the brand of cricket we want to play. We want to push the boundaries.''
Explaining the contact with Dar, Clarke said: ''I can't remember what I said. I remember Aleem touching me and I asked him politely to not touch me because if I touched him I'd be suspended for three matches.''
The light meter reading at The Oval on Sunday was 5.7 while at Manchester it was 8.1 - the lower the figure, the darker the conditions. Despite the anti-climax the umpires followed the regulations on light to the letter of cricket's laws when they stopped play at 7.36pm. They were left with no option but to abandon the match when the light meter reading dropped to a level matching or below the figure that led to play being called off on day two last Thursday at 7.26pm. This was despite the floodlights being on.
However, the chairman of the English and Wales Cricket Board, Giles Clarke, said after the match that the laws regarding bad light must change.
''It is totally unsatisfactory the way the game ended - the rules are unacceptable and I expect [ICC general manager] Dave Richardson to change it at the next ICC chief executives meeting,'' he said.
Australia have gone nine matches without a win, a streak that stretches back to January, and dropped to fifth in the world Test rankings behind Pakistan, but Lehmann hopes they can turn it around in the return Ashes series this summer.
''I think it's that learning-to-win attitude,'' said Lehmann, who only took over as coach and selector a fortnight before the series. ''That's what we tried to do [on Sunday]. We want to keep challenging our players in those situations to get better, learn from the mistakes we make. We're going to make mistakes, we understand that. But we've got to improve from there.''

The American Trucking Associations has made a $100,000 commitment toward the Trucking Moves America Forward campaign, an industry initiative to showcase the positive side of trucking.
"One of our most important jobs is to tell the trucking industry's story," said ATA President and CEO Bill Graves. "There's so much to know about the safety, the essentiality and the sustainability of this industry and Trucking Moves America Forward has been designed to do just that."
The TMAF initiative is aimed at building political and grassroots support to strengthen the trucking industry by educating motorists and policy makers on the benefits of trucking.
The $100,000 donation brings TMAF closer to its fundraising goal of $1 million by the end of the year. It has raised $700,000 so far.

Naveen to Raise Polavaram, SCS Status with Modi
By Express News Service
Published: 31st May 2014 10:22 AM
Last Updated: 31st May 2014 10:25 AM
BHUBANESWAR: Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik will raise the issue of Polavaram multi-purpose project, which is opposed by Odisha and Chhattisgarh governments, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi during their meeting at New Delhi.
Official sources said during his week-long stay in the national capital, Naveen will also press for special category state (SCS) status to Odisha and other issues which the BJD has promised in its election manifesto.
The Chief Minister on Friday reviewed the issues which he would take up with the Prime Minister and Union ministers. The review covered various issues relating to different ministries including finance, home, railways, transport, urban development and rural development.
Naveen is likely to meet Modi on Monday along with all BJD members of the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha to discuss crucial matters of the State.
Odisha has been opposing the Polavaram multi-purpose irrigation project as it threatens to submerge 130-odd villages in Malkangiri district and has moved the Supreme Court in this regard.
This is the first visit of Naveen to Delhi after taking charge as Chief Minister of Odisha for the fourth consecutive term. Naveen had stayed away from the swearing-in ceremony of Modi on May 26 as it coincided with the election of Speaker of the Odisha Assembly.
Naveen is also scheduled to attend the BJD Parliamentary Party meeting to be held at Delhi before the Parliament session begins on June 4.

Mitchell finishes tied for 63rd
Columbine sophomore Tess Mitchell placed tied for 63rd at the Class 5A girls golf state tournament that wrapped up May 24 at CommonGround Golf Course in Aurora. Mitchell shot round of 88 and 98 to finish 42-over-par for the two-day tournament.
LAKEWOOD — It might not have surpassed the special memories on the football field at Jeffco Stadium, but Dakota Ridge senior Cale Ferrin found the right way to end his prep sports career.
Ferrin, who placed third in the high jump at the 5A Jeffco League Championships the previous week, finished fourth at the state meet May 19.
There were WACs, WAVES and WASPs. And then, there were the women Marines.
During World War II, women served in and alongside the armed forces, including the Women's Army Corps (WAC), the Navy's Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service (WAVES), and Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASPs).
A construction worker is trapped in a trench, with a 20-inch pipe pinning his torso and legs. He's stuck in a confined and unstable space, being crushed under a large structure. He should be terrified, but he isn't.
This scenario was an exercise — the final test, actually — for firefighters enrolled in West Metro Fire's technical rescue course.
After almost a decade, the Jeffco Education Association has reinstated its Christa McAuliffe Excellence Fund scholarship.
Established in 1984 as the JCEA Excellence Scholarships, the program awards $4,000 across four years to graduating Jeffco seniors who plan to pursue careers in education. The scholarship was renamed in McAuliffe's honor after the New Hampshire teacher was killed in the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger in 1986.
Kygo's "Stole the Show" echoed throughout Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Friday afternoon as Chatfield Senior High graduated nearly 450 seniors in its 30th commencement ceremony. As a group of seniors performed their class song one last time, the proverbial spotlight was on, as thousands of parents, family members, friends, teachers and classmates looked on from the stadium seats.
Chatfield relays strong at state
Chatfield's boys swim team finished tied for 14th at the Class 5A boys swimming and diving state meet in Colorado Springs. Three of the Chargers' relay teams placed in the top 15.
By Craig Harper — For the Courier
THORNTON — The transition has come full circle for Jack Moranetz.
The D'Evelyn sophomore swimmer is a bona fide breaststroker. Oh, he'll still swim freestyle races and maybe even the individual medley, especially if he gets his butterfly up to par.
ENGLEWOOD — Sonorah Hunter's first child isn't due until August, yet she is already accustomed to molding today's youth.
LAKEWOOD — It was admittedly an emotional state track and field meet for Dakota Ridge senior Cayli Hume.
First there was the dilemma of whether Hume would run the anchor leg in the first event on the track May 19 at Jeffco Stadium. The Eagles' 800-meter medley relay broke the school record twice in the two weeks leading up to the three-day state meet and came in with the seventh best qualifying time.

You could feel extra cautious about using your resources today, which could be the result of your fear of not having enough in your life. These feelings may leave you feeling insecure about yourself and your current situation. This would be a good time to realize that your life is abundant as it is. If you begin to feel afraid about your circumstances today, you might try a meditation on your first chakra, which is the energy center for survival. Bringing your attention to the base of your spine, you can imagine your spine connecting to the earth. Feel the earth supporting you and know that with this connection you have stability in every aspect of your life. You may want to repeat to yourself that in this moment you have abundance and security. You could find that this gives you a greater feeling of well-being and safety.
Reminding ourselves of the plethora of resources we have in life allows us to overcome our fears of lack. When we focus on what we don't have, we create scarcity in our lives and will always feel insecure with our situation. By bringing our attention to our first chakra and creating a connection with the earth beneath us, we have the energetic support to steady ourselves. We realize that as long as we have this support, we have everything we need in life. By seeing that your life is full today, you will understand that abundance is not measured by your resources but through your ideas about your life.

LVDT Linear Position Sensor Serves as Critical Component in Ophthalmic UltUltrasound System
Macro Sensors Subminiature LVDT Linear Position Sensor Serves as Critical Component in Ophthalmic Ultrasound System
Sub-miniature LVDT Position Sensor serves as a critical component of a probe within an ophthalmic ultrasound system used to image the eye and tissues around and behind the eye to determine the presence of pathology.
The Eye Cubed™, manufactured by Ellex Innovative Imaging (www.ellex.com)
Renowned for its unparalleled sensitivity and highest-quality image resolution, this diagnostic ophthalmic ultrasound technology features real-time imaging, advanced movie mode using the fastest sampling rate, and internal memory for storage of measurements. The ophthalmic ultrasound sector probe of the
Eye Cubed utilizes one Macro Sensors MD 188 Series LVDT Linear Position Transducer to send a signal to the console that allows the ultrasound image to be accurately displayed on screen. The ultrasound transducer is moved back and forth by a motor to send an array of sound beams into the eye. While miniature in size to fit into the probe, the LVDT position sensor is very dependable, operating over millions of cycles without wear or signal quality degradation. Ultra-low-mass cores allow use for high response dynamic measurements.
While axial resolution is determined by transducer frequency, lateral resolution is solely determined by LVDT quality and the system's ability to translate that position information into the proper display of echoes on the screen. This is most critical in the measurement of ocular tumors, since the lateral and axial measurements are used by radiation oncologists to calculate the amount of radiation delivered to the tumor. Incorrect lateral measurements could result in improper radiation dosage and direction, causing life-threatening problems if the entire tumor is not treated.

Shawn Andrews may become a cap casualty, but he has every intention of playing for the Giants this season.
The veteran offensive lineman tweeted Saturday night, "LMAO!! Why Wouldn't I Wanna Work For The Best Organization In The League #IMO"
The tweet was in response to a question by WFAN's Giants reporter Paul Dottino, who asked Andrews, "Do you expect to play for NYG this season?"
With the Giants reportedly projected to be over the salary cap by $11.34 million, Andrews is a candidate to be released, according to ESPN.com's John Clayton.
According to Clayton, the Giants can slice $7.333 million by releasing Andrews.
They have 30 days after the start of the league year to decide whether to pay Andrews a $3.5 million roster bonus.

The Mommy & Me Yoga I teach is quite a bit of fun. It's an hour class. You can expect to get 30-40 mins of yoga in, and the rest of the time tending to baby. About 2/3 of my class is for mom, and the other 1/3 is for the babies. And yes, the babies get into the big balls. I'm fine with that We are pretty childproofed.

I won with a lame #$%$ team. A-rod and Lynch were my only stars the rest were garbage and free agent pickups. Haplf of my team was hurt all year. Still managed to win the league from a 3 seed.

Huge thank you to Romo, early on everyone said he sucked and wasn't worthy of being a starting fantasy QB, but I stuck with him and it paid off huge in the end. Thanks also to Charles, Ray Rice, Al Morris, AJ Green and Eric Decker. And special shout out to Hanson and Denver D. Honorable Mention to Lance Moore.

CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina's senior class includes the school's career scoring leader, its first Outland Trophy finalist, a two-time defensive captain and a receiver who is moving up the receptions list. They will all be honored before the Tar Heels' final game of the season today against Maryland at Kenan Stadium (3 p.m., Fox Sports Carolinas). But even more than their accomplishments, the fact that they're even still on the roster is enough for UNC coach Larry Fedora.

Import prices increase in September 2009
October 15, 2009
The price index for all imports increased 0.1 percent in September, led by a 0.6-percent increase in nonfuel import prices.
The September rise followed a 1.6-percent increase in August and continues results in which the price index for overall imports has only declined once since January. Despite the recent upward trend, import prices fell 12.0 percent for the year ended in September because of the sharp drop in the index at the end of 2008.
The price index for fuel imports decreased 1.8 percent in September, following a 7.1-percent increase in August. The decrease was driven by a 2.1-percent decline in crude prices as well as a 16.5-percent drop in natural gas prices.
In contrast to fuel imports, nonfuel import prices increased 0.6 percent in September, following a 0.3-percent increase in August, representing the largest one-month gain since a similar 0.6-percent advance in July 2008. Contributing to the advance were higher prices for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials, finished goods and foods.
These data are from the BLS International Price program. Import and export price data are subject to revision. For more information, see "U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes — September 2009" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-09-1238.

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) - Passengers at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport can pass the time with a Rembrandt and other 17th-century masters as they wait for their planes after the Dutch national Rijksmuseum completes a small extension in the departure hall.
The museum has announced plans for the single-room extension, suspended like a gilded cage over the floor of the lounge, and reached by an S-shaped stairway. A gift shop will be strategically located below.
Among the 10 paintings, masters on display will be a 1633 portrait by Rembrandt of a woman thought to be his wife, Saskia, a landscape by Jacob van Ruisdael, and a view of Dutch urban life by Pieter de Hoogh.
Entry will be free to anyone with an airline ticket.
The museum will be accessible to more than 100 million people passing through the airport annually, officials said.

Effect of temperature on slumping behaviour of lead-free solder paste and its rheological simulation
Marks, A.E., Mallik, S., Ekere, N.N. and Seman, A. (2008) Effect of temperature on slumping behaviour of lead-free solder paste and its rheological simulation. 2008 2nd Electronics System-Integration Technology Conference. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, USA, pp. 829-832. ISBN 97814244-28137 (Print), 978-1-4244-2814-4 (Electronic) (doi:10.1109/ESTC.2008.4684459)Full text not available from this repository.
Variation in temperature can have a significant impact on the rheological characterisation of solder pastes used in the electronic assembly of surface mount devices. This paper concerns the study of the effect of temperature on slumping characteristics of lead-free solder pastes. The identification of the slumping characteristics can help in the correlation of the pastes characteristics to its printing performance. Further issues, which aid in justifying the undertaking of such a study, include the temperature differences identified both at the squeegee during the print, and during reflow. Due to these temperature variations, it is imperative to understand how slump differs with a temperature gradient

After breakfast we bid John and Sandra farewell and drive up to the M25 ring road and head around London towards the M 11. We stopped at the Welcome Break Services on the M11 for coffee and a pee break.

Day 5 and 6
... Mind you, it is very tempting as the shops are full of beautiful clothes. We also had lunch at another beautiful Pub called The Georgian. This morning was so mild we went or a long walk with Bindi. Simone took me on a path she had never been on before, so it was a real adventure not knowing where we were going. Along the muddy paths and across the ploughed up fields was certainly hard going, but made worthwhile finding blackberry bushes and stopping to indulge ...
... lovely family, then Ian and I drove over and picked up Aunt Joan from her place. We all went to Dinner at Park Farm Restaurant and had a great day out.
We dropped back at Ian's after the restaurant and chatted for a while and before we knew it, it was 6.00pm. We said our farewells and drove back to Thetford for a quiet evening at the hotel.
It was great catching up with everyone, we had a really good day.

on February 25, 2014 - 12:05 AM
When Javon McCrea became the University at Buffalo's career scoring leader in Saturday's breakthrough win at Kent State, he fulfilled all the promise evident in his debut game as a Bull.
McCrea stepped onto the floor for the first time on Nov. 13, 2010, during a landslide victory over Navy. He scored 14 points. He pulled down 10 rebounds. And he did it all in 13 minutes. At the age of 17.
He was deft with his right hand, and maybe even more so with his left. His ball-handling skills and floor vision defied the norm for someone 6-foot-6 with wide shoulders typical of an NFL linebacker. Who could help but wonder how he slipped through the wide-ranging recruiting nets cast by the major conferences and ended up at UB after graduating from Newark High School.
The thought during his freshman year was that McCrea still had a growth spurt coming his way. Just look at the breadth of that wingspan and the size of those hands. He could end up 6-8, 6-10, maybe beyond. Imagine if that happened.
But McCrea never sprouted the way many envisioned. He still stands 6-6, although now stronger and leaner. His growth is measured not in inches but in points, rebounds, assists and blocks and the per-game averages go like this:
Freshman: 11.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.7 blocks, 1.7 assists.
Sophomore: 14.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, 1.9 assists
Junior: 18.0 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2.6 blocks, 2.0 assists
Senior to date: 18.9 points, 10.3 rebounds, 2.4 blocks, 2.1 assists
With 1,920 career points, McCrea ranks 10th in the country among active Division I players. He and Alex Francis of Bryant, also a 6-6 senior, are the only ones in the Top 10 without a slew of threes to their benefit. Bryant has made 13, McCrea zero. Everyone else in the top 10 has cashed at least 180.
Although he's on a mission to make at least one trey in his career, it's entirely possible McCrea will reach 2,000 career points with nothing but deuces and free throws. Which brings up another growth area. McCrea shot 50.7 percent from the foul line as a freshman, 55.9 percent as a sophomore, 70.8 percent as a junior and 68.9 percent so far this season.
His other national career rankings among active players: Third in field goals, fourth in double-doubles, eighth in rebounds, ninth in blocks and 16th in field goal percentage. He's one of just four active players with 1,500 points and 600 rebounds and is 52 rebounds shy of becoming only the 21st player since 1998 with 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds (Niagara's Juan Mendez accomplished the feat in 2005).
McCrea went for 31 and 11 Saturday in UB's first-ever win at Kent State, a victory that put the Bulls a game up in the East when Akron fell to Ohio U. later that night. But it's the overall standings that matter and it's a five-team race for the four byes to Cleveland. Toledo and Western Michigan are 11-3, UB 10-4, Ohio U. and Akron both 9-5.
Remaining schedules for the contenders:
UB: At Ohio U., vs. Miami, at Akron, vs. BG
Toledo: at NIU, vs. WMU, at CMU, vs. EMU
WMU: at Ball State, at Toledo, vs. NIU, at CMU
Ohio U.: vs. UB, vs. Kent, at BG, at Miami
Akron: at Miami, vs. BG, vs. UB, vs. Kent
Home stretch
Canisius (19-10, 13-5) will finish no lower than fourth in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference and is assured a bye into the conference tourney quarterfinals a week from Friday in Springfiled, Mass. Niagara (6-23, 3-15) will finish anywhere from ninth to 11th and play a pre-quarterfinal next Thursday.
Canisius closes out the regular season Friday at Rider (13-14, 9-9) and Sunday at Manhattan (20-7, 13-5). Niagara is at Monmouth (10-19, 4-14) on Friday and at Saint Peter's (11-16, 7-11) on Sunday.
In the A-10, Bona (16-11, 6-7) plays at La Salle (12-14, 4-8) on Wednesday in what could be a preview of a conference tournament quarterfinal. The Bonnies are eighth in the conference, 1½ games out of seventh, and LaSalle sits ninth, 1½ games ahead of the No. 10s. If the Bonnies and Explorers finish in the 8-9 slots they'll meet March 12 in Brooklyn for the right to meet No. 1-seeded Saint Louis.
Bona is home Saturday to face second-place Saint Joseph's (19-7, 9-3) at 3 p.m.
Women's reset
St. Bonaventure (21-8, 10-4) probably needs a strong stretch run and deep A-10 tourney showing to pull out an at-large bid to the NCAAs. Although tied for second in the conference, the Bonnies are No. 62 in the RPIs and behind three other A-10 teams: first-place Dayton (No. 17) and No. 4s Fordham (No. 59) and Duquesne (No. 61).
Bona has a second-place showdown with visiting George Washington (19-8, 10-4) Wednesday and will complete the regular season on Saturday at La Salle (12-14, 7-7).
In the Mid-American, UB (15-10, 8-6) and Toledo (12-12, 8-6) are tied for fourth overall with the Bulls holding the tiebreaker advantage based on a Jan. 15 win over the Rockets. That No. 4 spot carries a bye straight to Cleveland and dodges the dread five-game burden to win the title.
Here's one way to look at it: If UB beats a trio of 3-11 teams (Ohio U., Miami and Kent) and loses to 11-3 Akron, and Toledo beats three teams below it in the standings (Northern Illinois, Eastern Michigan and Ball State) and loses to 13-1 Central Michigan, the Bulls finish fourth. The key for UB could be this week's road games at Ohio U. Thursday and Miami Saturday.
In the MAAC, Canisius and Niagara enter the final week in a three-way tie for sixth with Manhattan (all 7-11). The Griffs and Purple Eagles both get Fairfield (14-4) and Rider (9-9) at home. Manhattan has Saint Peter's (2-16) and Quinnipiac (13-5). What's for certain is that Canisius and Niagara both will open the MAAC Tournament a week from Thursday with pre-quarterfinals.
Board games
Quinnipiac came through WNY and pushed its winning streak to seven games with the help of a missed foul that freed Umar Shannon for the buzzer-beating 50-footer that downed Niagara. The Bobcats continued to astound with their rebounding numbers. They lead the nation in all three categories — margin, offensive rebounds and total rebounds — and pulverized Canisius and Niagara by a combined 100-56.
The Bobcats have big-shouldered inside presences in 6-9 Ousmane Drame and 6-7 Ike Azotam, but coach Tom Moore said rebounding is ingrained in the culture of the program.
"We do a lot of it in practice and it's hard to do, especially when you're banged up, and we're really banged up right now," Moore said. "We're down to seven scholarship guys, eight scholarship guys. But we try to do it every day. Some days we do 20 minutes of it, some days we do five minutes of it. We teach it and it's the one thing our guys realize they're probably going to get yanked out of the game if they don't do.
"Like John Chaney at Temple, his bugaboo was turnovers. Anybody on his team turned it over, they were coming out. Or certain guys, if you turn down a shot and they want you to shoot, they'll take you out. Our guys pretty much know if they whiff on a boxout or if they don't crash, they're coming out."
Men: Bona 86, Canisius 99, UB 106, Niagara 295.
Women: Bona 62, UB 127, Canisius 246, Niagara 256.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Antwerp Old Town
Highly recommended
My mum and I stayed in the Hilton Antwerp for two nights in November. We were there on a (very successful) shopping trip. The Hilton definitely exceeded our expectations. I was expecting a fairly ordinary Holiday Inn type experience, but it was far superior to that.
Our room was large and spacious, with a roomy bathroom and second, separate toilet. Everything was spotless.
Location was perfect for us, as very close to the best shopping area. The hotel receptionist provided us with a map and directions to our first port of call - the Dries van Noten flagship store in the Modepaleis.
Breakfast was absolutely excellent.
All the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. We had one error on our bill, which was sorted out immediately.
Our only complaint was the excessive smoking in the lounge, but we soon realized that everyone in Belgium seems to smoke like chimneys, so can't really blame that on the Hilton...
Great hotel!
Great location, great staff. Clubroom was ok. Breakfast could have been better (a bit dissapointing for a Hilton Hotel to be honest).
Well placed comfortable hotel
Just returned from 3 nights at Antwerp Hilton. Excellent location, right in the historic centre, close to the river and the main shopping area and all the important tourist sights. It is also attached to a small shopping mall and car park is directly beneath hotel. We arrived by car so this was a useful facility. A word of warning though - hotel web site road directions are out of date due to continuing road works through out the city (hotel receptionist advised us this). And if coming by car avoid the Kennedy Tunnel (use the Wasserland Tunnel). It took us over an hour to get through it and more than another hour to find the hotel so try and get a decent map!
Room was large and comfortable if a little drab and a little worn, bathroom was also large, all marble and with a seperate shower stall.
Staff were very friendly and helpful but seemed a little over whelmed and inexperienced during busy periods over weekend breakfast service. Buffet breakfast was excellent with a wide choice of almost anything you would have wanted.
Good Location and large rooms
The hotel is in an excellent location. The room was large and well furnished although it lacked natural light. The staff were friendly. There was a high charge to use the fitness factilities, which we therefore did not use.
Great location, good service
We stayed on the executive floor and were very impressed with the staff. There were some glitches, but overall, one of the better Hiltons. The location is superb and the rooms are quite spacious. We ran the air conditioning at maximum during temperatures in the mid 90s, and it was pleasant. There is a great grocery store in the basement of the shopping center attached to the hotel. We had a major error in the bill, and the staff was extremely gracious and corrected it immediately. The hotel was convenient to almost everything and there was a great Australian Ice Cream (gelato) directly outside of the front door. (Yes, sounds weird, but it is wonderful.) I would definitely stay again.
This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel in two years, it is extremely well located for all amenities and tourist areas as well as being reasonably priced (142 Euro per night for a double room).
The breakfast is excellent as is the room service and general standard in the Hotel, although telephoning home is expensive, but this is a Hilton Hotel so very little is cheap. There is no Tea or Coffee making facilities in the room.
IFrom the Hotel it is possible to walk to and from the bus stop (Sabena Express) near the Central Station in order to depart or arrive from Brussels Airport at a cost of 8 Euro one way. The journey is only 45 minutes and leaves every hour on the hour, both from Brussels airport and from Antwerp.
The hotel is also located within walking distance of 5 Irish bars for those of you interested in Irish Food, Sport, Irish Music both traditional and modern and a good atmosphere.
Great hotel in a fantastic location.
I have now stayed in this hotel on more than one occasion and each time i've been impressed.
The hotel is a great base for anyone wanting to see the sights of Antwerp, bedrooms and public rooms are clean, and the staff are friendly.
The hotel is adjacent to a shopping centre that you can enter from the hotel without going outside, the cathedral is a stones throw away , and here you will find a number of restaurants to choose from.
First Class Hotel
We stayed for Christmas at the Hilton Antwerp and were not disappointed. caveat: As diamond members, we received red carpet treatment and admittance into their club lounge which served a nice breakfast. However, regardless, the location can't be beat, in the heart of the Grand Place and steps from the ice-skating rink (set up in winter).
The hotel lobby is a destination place where people love to congregate and enjoy food, drinks, and smoke. and hotel guests are eligible to use the gym facilities operately independently located in the adjoining connected mall (voucher is free for diamond members but there is a fee for hotel guests). The hotel is also connected to a mall with eating places, shops, and the gym.
You can walk to the hotel from the main train station if you don't have too much baggage (20 min) walk. Otherwise, cabs are readily available in front of the hotel and the metro is steps away.
Great spot, great service
The Hilton Antwerpen is situated in the middle of the historic centre and nearby wonderfull shops. The rooms are very spacious (esp. 5th floor) and nicely furnished. Lunch en breakfast were very good. There are great restaurants nearby. The staff is very friendly and helpfull.
Friendliest Staff around!
Excellent, execllent, and excellent! I can't say enough about this hotel. I stay here once a month for work. The hilton antwerp is located right in the grooenplaats (green place) and is surrounded by many restaurants, and shops. The area is very safe (which is important to me as I'm a female traveling alone.) The staff deserves the first kudos as they are fabulous. Will go out of their way to accomadate you. The rooms are large and clean with goose down blankets! If you're a hilton member, I think you get upgraded to the executive floor where the clubroom is located. The clubroom has a complimentary breakfast which has a large selection of fare from breakfast meats, to eggs, sausage, bacon, yougurts, breads, patries and fruits. If you're staying there for a week, you'll have enough varieties that you're not bored with the food. Coffee and tea is always available with patries to snack on in the afternoon. From 5-10 pm, they have complimentary drinks to help you unwind from a long hard days work (or sighteeing as the case may be) After a strenous day at work, I look forward to pouring myself a glass of wine and relaxing in front of the tv. It honestly feels like home, there. And last but not least, the antwerp hilton offers special element that no other hotels in Antwerp offers....Wireless access. They have this cute little box that plugs right into your laptop and you can walk around the entire hotel and still be connnected. This is important for the road warriors who need to be connected to home. All in all, there's nothing that I can say that's negative about this hotel.

This was our 2nd Celebrity cruise, 1st one was on the Millennium to the Eastern Caribbean in 2010.
We have also sailed on Princess, Carnival and NCL.
We are both in our 70's and love to travel far and wide. We flew from LAX with Virgin Australia to Cairns via Sydney for a week stay. Busy busy during the week with our visits to the Great Barrier Reef, tropical rainforests, sightseeing travels north up the coast, Crocodile adventures and last but not least a Koala Cuddle at the Cairns Tropical Zoo.
We flew back to Sydney for a night stay before boarding the Solstice on November 4, 2013. Spent our night at the Meriton Serviced Apartments "World Tower" on the 76th floor, with a view of Darling Harbor. WOW, two solid glass walls of 180 degree VIEW. Very difficult to sleep that evening, you didn't want to miss a thing, day or night.
We joined the ship the next morning and hustled out for some sightseeing. We were docked with beautiful views of the Opera House, water taxi and ferries activity and the beaufiful Sydney skyline. The ship did not depart until the next afternoon. Very nice to run back on board and have a quick bite and glass of wine (123 Go promotion :) ) and then take in some more sites.
Our first Meet and Great with fellow Cruise Critic roll call members was at the sailaway from Sydney. Over 100 members were signed up. Celebrity hosted a morning Meet and Mingle for all the membes with the Captain and fellow offices in attendance.
The cruise for twelve nights was SUPER. We enjoyed our C2-1229 Concierge Class room choice. One thing this provides is dining at any time.
Milford Sound was all fogged in so this was a dissappointment. The ports of call were very nice and informative. It was so sad to see the destruction in Christchurch after the earthquake in 2011. We spent two days in Auckland after disembarkation.
The food on Celebrity is amazing, the staff always gracious, entertainment was top notch. All of this adds up to our premier choice for cruising is Celebrity Cruises.

Robert Reich: Not a day goes by without Republicans decrying the budget deficit. But the biggest single reason for the yawning deficit is big money's corruption of Washington.
Capitalism Is the Enemy of Democracy
David Kristjanson-Gural: Excluding people from having a say over what happens to the wealth we create is the first and the most fundamental way that any capitalist system undermines democracy. We are fundamentally disenfranchised in the places we work.
European Debt Crisis: A Problem of Political Will
Iwan Morgan: the current crisis shows that unity in the face of economic and financial crisis is far more difficult for a 17-member club of nations than for a union of 50 states under one government.
Stop the Austerity Train Wreck!
Robert Reich: Agreement or not, Washington is on the road to making budget cuts that will slow the economy, increase unemployment, and impose additional hardship on millions of Americans.
Supercommittee Sins
Brent Budowsky: The sin of the supercommittee is that it has merely mirrored the old-think politics it was created to rise above.
Another Republican Hoax: Corporate Tax Cuts Stimulate Employment
Sy Slavin: This Canadian study shows that as far as creating new jobs and generally decreasing unemployment, the way to go is increasing governmental infrastructure expenditures.
Flat Tax a Flat-Out Fraud
Robert Reich: All flat-tax proposals benefit the rich more than the poor for one simple reason: Today's tax code is still at least moderately progressive. The rich usually pay a higher percent of their incomes in income taxes than do the poor. A flat tax would eliminate that slight progressivity.
The Flat-Tax Fraud, and the Necessity of a Truly Progressive Tax
Robert Reich: Simple fairness requires three things: More tax brackets at the top, higher rates in each bracket, and the treatment of all sources of income (capital gains included) exactly the same.
Drinks Are on the House (and Senate)
Walter Brasch: "As long as the Republicans control Congress," said Marshbaum, "the American way of life will be preserved. Want a drink now?"
Why Conservatives Need to Support the #OccupyWallStreet Movement
David Love: Conservatives proclaim that they believe in freedom and the free market. But freedom never meant the right of a handful to steal most of the nation's wealth, run roughshod over the rest of us and wreck the country for a buck.

Halloween may honor ghosts and spirits, but the "living dead" themselves seem to prefer the dead of winter to the temperate fall, according to the Discovery Channel's Ghost Lab brothers Brad and Barry Klinge.
The San Antonio-based brothers founded Everyday Paranormal, an investigation team that finds evidence and tests new theories to probe the existence of afterlife. Ghost Lab, which airs Thursdays (10 p.m. ET) on Discovery, follows the team to haunted places across the country.
"Halloween is merely a date on the calendar and people are more in the mood to see ghosts," Barry told PEOPLE during an interview at Hollywood's apparently haunted Roosevelt Hotel. "But ghosts are 24 hours, seven days a week. We've actually done tests to see when activity is more frequent. The wintertime is more active for some reason. I think it's because of the atmosphere – the cold."
In fact, according to Brad, ghosts are unaware such a day in their honor exists. "I doubt they know what Halloween is," he says. "I think it's just a frame of mind. I think it's just a preconceived notion that people are wanting to see more things on Halloween. I could see ghosts on Oct. 31. I could see ghosts on Aug. 31."
Barry, who heard something "exercising, dancing or running around like crazy," in the unoccupied hotel room directly above him Wednesday night, says there are certain things to look and listen for when it comes to inspecting haunted places.
"You're going to hear unexplained things like doors slamming and footsteps," he says. "You'll feel cold spots. You'll see things misplaced. What happens in a true haunting is you might have one thing and then rule it out. But when several things start happening over a period of time, you wonder if something is going on. It as to be a series of things."
