Tomorrow look for the impressions of Lynsey Roumell, 22, of Grand Rapids, a public relations consultant for Wondergem Consulting Inc. She writes her own style blog.
Amy Benore's top five favorites:
Heidi Klum (photo at top) looked like fashion royalty in her red gown. The tone and depth of the red were appropriate (compared to Katherine Heigel's dress which screamed orange in comparison), the cut was designed beautifully (especially compared to Anne Hathaway's curtain dress) and her hair and jewelry were complimentary to her overall look.
Marion Cotillard's scalloped dress was absolutely amazing.
Ellen Page dressed to her comfort level and for that reason she looked beautiful. Nothing special about her outfit, except that she looked like herself; yay for promoting confidence as part of sexuality and beauty!!
Calista Flockhart's dress achieved what many tried but failed; a simple, artfully done piece.
Penelope Cruz also did a beautiful job of putting together a complete look; the color made her skin glow and the cut was very flattering.
Amy Benore's least fav. looks:
Cameron Diaz's dress reminded me of a trifle or a parfait...fluffy pastels. Neither the cut nor the color were flattering.
Renee Zellweger needs a stylist that cares about her. The metallic dress looks chintzy and outdated. Also, she looks like she left in a hurry...no jewelry?
Adrienne Frantz, above, and Amy Adams (see her dress under The New Black's picks for favorites - OK, we can't always agree!). They tie for wearing dresses that look like they are straight out of Seventeen magazine's prom issue, circa 1999.
And finally: Please, George Clooney -- hire a stylist for your girlfriend Sarah Larson. The dress is an insult to his tux!!

Buyer refuse to pay additional shipping cost
on 01-26-2013 10:23 AM
Sellers are not allowed to charge more for shipping after the sale closes. If you made a mistake, that's on you and you need to pay out-of-pocket. If the shipping calculator is wrong, then you didn't measure or weigh something correctly, or you are not purchasing shipping on ebay.
on 01-26-2013 10:25 AM
The approximate disclaimer in your listing means nothing.

It is "eBay illegal" to ask for additional funds after successful close of a listing.
In other words, the buyer is correct! You must ship for the amount shown in the listing (unless the buyer is overseas, and your shipping quote was for the USA). Is that the case?
on 01-26-2013 10:29 AM
i see nothing you've sold lately that would take a "big" box----did they pay and then you said they owed more? or did you send an invoice with the added shipping and they refuse to pay? either way---you can't do that! all the buyer owes is what was shown them in the listing, if they paid SHIP IT, if you sent an invoice before they paid with the higher shipping, resend the invoice with the original shipping, and eat the extra shipping yourself, that's what we all have to do if we miscalculate shipping---apparently you didn't input the correct info into the calculator.
on 01-26-2013 10:25 AM
Why are you asking for more shipping? Is buyer in a different country or wanting a faster method? Those are the only reasons for a seller to ask for additional money. eBay prohibits sellers for asking for more money than stated in the listing ... even when they've made an honest mistake.
on 01-26-2013 10:25 AM
Read here...
Keep in mind the buyer has the ability to deny this request and leave less than positive feedback.
It's a seller's responsibility to properly weigh & measure his packages for accurate listing calculations.
Good luck!
Graciously grin when you growl...
on 01-26-2013 10:31 AM
YOU are responsible for the shipping calculations. If you've made a mistake,unfortunately, you'll have to either take the loss OR face the consequences of your actions. YOU are legally committed to ship the item+honor the agreement. It's binding for BOTH the buyer + the seller. It's totally up to the seller to set the places that they will ship to,but Seller has to have their blocks set correctly. Merely stating where you will+won't ship in your listing/description is TOTALLY meaningless. Hope this helps. :-D

A Daily Crossword, which runs Monday through Saturday in the How We Live section, launched a web site where readers can work the daily puzzle as well as past puzzles, read creator Wayne Robert Williams' blog, add comments and find other puzzles.
The web site launched today.
Williams edited the syndicated crossword that ran in The Oregonian for over 10 years. When the puzzle was no longer available through the syndicate, The Oregonian asked readers to test and vote on four new puzzles. We ran the winner for several months last year. Then Williams began self-syndicating A Daily Crossword, and we asked readers if they wanted to return to it. Readers voted 547 to 73 to bring it back, which we did last October.

When Straight No Chaser – a 10-man a cappella group originally formed by college buddies at Indiana University more than a decade ago – first began, none of its members ever imagined being featured on national TV or topping the charts. A dozen years later, the group's major-label debut, "HOLIDAY SPIRITS," went on to sell more than 110,000 copies.
Fueled by appearances on ABC World News Tonight, CNN Headline News, and the Today show, among others, the album spent 14 days in the #1 slot on Amazon, and 5 days at the top spot overall on iTunes. The group's now famous version of "The 12 Days of Christmas" peaked in the top 10 on the Christmas radio chart and reached the top 15 at Hot AC. On their first-ever headline tour in December 2008, Straight No Chaser sold out shows across the country.
"Back in college, we started this group just for fun—no one ever thought of it as a possible career path," says original member Randy Stine. "It's hard to comprehend that ten years after our last performance, we'd be back together recording for a major label with an album that reached number one on iTunes, heading out on a international 50-city tour.

|[TowerTalk] Half Slopers
|email@example.com (Bill Fisher, W4AN)
|Mon, 21 Jul 1997 20:45:34 -0400 (EDT)
Mike Fatchett asked about 160 antennas (quick and easy). I was thinking the same thing about 10 years ago when I was putting up my 85' tower. At the top of the tower was 10' of mast, a 402CD at the top, and a TH7 at the 85' level. N4RJ suggested a half sloper for both 80 and 160 meters. Both worked GREAT and were very easy to install. The ground side was attached to the tower and they were fed with either CATV hardline or coax. Since that time I have asked various people with loud signals on 160M who were using half slopers and one element always repeated itself. Every person had a 40M yagi of one sort or another or a ton of top loading on their tower. This was also the case at K4VX/0. Lew had a 130' tower with a full sized 3 element yagi on top for 40M. He had two half slopers off of that tower and they worked very well. I have talked to others who have tried half slopers with no success at all. The missing component... the 40M yagi! Most said they couldn't even get it to tune in the band. 73 Bill, W4AN Bill Fisher, W4AN (EX KM9P) http://www.contesting.com -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: email@example.com Administrative requests: firstname.lastname@example.com Problems: email@example.com Search: http://www.contesting.com/km9p/search

Do you like bacon, Optimus? Seriously, just add 2-3 strips of bacon at every meal (and make sure you eat three meals). Done. Fat + protein.
August 2010: 207 lb, 37" waist, 25+% BF | Currently: 177 lb, 33" waist, ~15% BF
I have a new site up and will soon be blogging at The Wayward Mind. (My journal is semi-retired at this point)
A thought about weight gain - those primal breakfast muffins (in the 1st MDA cookbook I think) have eggs and cheese in them so you could eat them when you're not home. Good to have something to grab and go, maybe?

Hi Jenny, hi Optimus!
[Sheesh, what's it take to stop the freakin spammers...?]
Just chiming in to say that I think that prepared-ahead-of-time meals - especially high protein and high fat - go along way to combatting the "I forgot to eat" phenomenon. If it's in front of you (in a lunch bag, whatever), it's a lot harder to forget.

"If I cling to circumstances, I could claim to be not responsible. Only she who says she did not choose is the loser in the end." Adrienne Rich
Hi jac! Yeah, it's a good idea. I did try the primal breakfast muffins with cheese on Optimus. No go, he isn't a big cheese fan. So I tried them without cheese, still no go. Our toddler won't eat them either. Oh well! We'll work it out...
He woke up in the middle of the night for our daughter and realized he was hungry again... he decided he really does need to do that heavy cream shake every night before bed. NO being hungry!
Aila, as for what it takes to stop the spammers -- moderation that would remove their accounts as well as all their posts might help. Doesn't seem to be happening though.
"Trust me, you will soon enter a magical land full of delicious steakflowers, with butterbacons fluttering around over the extremely rompable grass and hillsides."
Another thing that he could try if plain ground beef is too boring for him, cook it up with taco seasonings or mix it in with a homemade italian tomato sauce. The bacon idea is awesome as well. Another thing some people do is that if they have a jar of coconut oil that is half empty is to put that in a pan of water on the stove, add some dark chocolate, unsweetened coconut flakes and if he likes macadamia nuts, put that in as well and make like a chocolate bark with it. Avocados are also another good fat that if he must have a salad, that is another way to add some.
The spammers are down right awful. Really getting tired of them.

I keep getting big carb cravings. And caving in. And feeling IBS-type sick (which I've never noticed before, but it's an interesting correlation and some would say causation.)
Methinks I need to get strict and get low-carb readjusted. Got some ground chicken yesterday so I can try to make my stew even more meat-intensive than it was to start with... maybe that'll help.
I never have the energy or time or motivation to do exercise in the evenings, so my new plan is to give myself a little break at work -- close the door and do some bodyweight exercises. I have enough break time to pull that off legally. I could also go for walks, and I do that, but winter will make that less appealing.
Weight is still hovering around 195. That's better than the 240 I started at, sure, but I allowed myself to lose my original progress over the summer. I want to drop 30 while gaining some muscle and then reassess goals/approach.
I slept 10 hours last night and still didn't want to get up on time. Methinks I have some sleep deficit to contend with, but how can I possibly get more sleep? I have absolutely no spare time in the evenings. *sigh*
Hopefully the exercise and extra protein will help my energy levels. I still feel crappy.
We're working on potty training with our toddler. I think she's doing a great job so far! She usually stays dry (for hours, sometimes) and she managed to score one at school yesterday, woot!

I am traveling on St. Bernard Avenue, looking for the turn off to Park Island on the left, when I am distracted by the sight on my right: A colorful row of handsome new houses. I circle a few times before I see the "Project Home Again" sign. By then, Park Island is a distant memory, and I have a new target for my Street Walk.
Anatomy of the block
I walk the area before I commit to a block. The long stretch of houses along St. Bernard Avenue is breathtaking, but the sun is shining from the wrong direction. I like the houses on Mandolin, too, but there are too many cars parked in front of them this day to take photos that would convey their beauty. Then I find Owens, where two fine trees have been preserved and grassy lawns are uninterrupted by driveways (a rear "alley" provides access). This is it.
I begin at the Wellington end of the block and note that the original homes -- two ranch houses -- have been repaired and seemingly reoccupied.
Just past the second one, I am looking at my first Project Home Again house, a salmon-colored bungalow with a front porch and shed roof that extends from the cottage out over the porch and the home's forward wing. Lean, tapered columns and a Craftsman-style front door add personality to the porch.
Care has been taken with the details, such as the house numbers stenciled onto the transom over the entry door and the coordinating mailbox. A fledgling cypress tree is taking root in the front yard.
To the right of the bungalow is one of the larger models of houses: one-story in front and two-story in the rear, much like the traditional New Orleans camelback. Here, however, the rear wing does not extend to the ground but is lifted on tall piers to provide a place for parking.
The massing on this house is more complex than on the first. The entry porch extends from the body, with its own gable-fronted roof. The first floor of the house comes next, again with a gable-fronted roof, but this time with a higher roof ridge. The pattern is repeated on the two-story element.
All gables are detailed with vertical planks, a pattern often seen in historic Craftsman houses. Ah, here's a detail I missed on the first house: The piers and the lattice between them are painted a dark green to anchor the houses to the ground and help the foundation blend with the landscape.
Both this house and its neighbor to the right sit far back from the sidewalk behind a grassy open area. Between them in the foreground is a large tree, a Chinese tallow I think. If so, just wait for its glorious fall colors to add even more beauty to the block.
The blue house that comes next seems to be a mirror image of the last house -- same massing, proportions and details, but all reversed so that the entry porch is on the right rather than on the left. But now I see that it is instead a variation on a theme, for here the exterior walls of the camelback portion extend all the way down to the foundation and there is no open space below. I pick up another detail: Not all front walks extend in a line perpendicular to the sidewalk. Some are at an angle, some bend.
A massive oak tree separates the camelback from the bungalow at the corner of Owens and St. Bernard. From the front, it looks to be the same model as the salmon-colored house I first observed. Like the first house, this one sits much closer to the sidewalk than the two camelbacks, and then I realize that the variations in setbacks animate the streetscape.
I walk around the side of the bungalow along St. Bernard and see an inviting screened porch in the rear, an element I can see on the back of several houses. Because there are no rear-yard fences, the backyards of all the houses connect, creating a park-like setting.
Life on the street
Storm clouds are brewing and there is thunder in the distance. Still, the sun is beating down hard, so when I loop the block and stop to talk to a man mowing the grass at his home on Wellington, he is dripping with perspiration.
"Trying to beat the rain," he says in answer to my silent question.
He pushes the mower through thick, tall St. Augustine grass, his floppy hat providing little relief from the sun. I ask him how long he's been back in his house and what he thinks about the new houses nearby.
"Took a while to get back. Too long," he says, huffing and puffing in short sentences. "Those new houses? Nice. Glad to have 'em."
Then he reaches the front end of the lawn and turns back to mow in the opposite direction.

No, last night's announcement that Taiwan-based manufacturing giant Foxconn was planning on investing $30 million for facility expansion in central Pennsylvania wasn't about a previously reported Apple repair and sorting plant near Carlisle.
It was an entirely new development.
For years Foxconn has operated a small facility of about 30 workers in Harrisburg. Outside of the region, the company is the world's largest contract electronics manufacturer. The global company's customers include Apple, Cisco, Dell, Nokia and Sony.
A few days ago the company's CEO, Terry Gou, was traveling in New York when Gov. Tom Corbett invited him to stop into Harrisburg. He apparently left impressed enough that 24 hours later he announced the expansion plans.
According to the state Department of Community and Economic Development, Foxconn is looking to invest $30 million and eventually hire 500 people to work in its expanded facility. The eventual location for the Foxconn facility has not been settled on, said DCED Press Secretary Steve Kratz.
That goes hand-in-hand with what is happening in South Middleton Township, outside of Carlisle, where Atlanta, Ga.-based Schenker Logistics Inc. is ramping up to begin operations at an Apple Electronics return facility.
Schenker has already started using the warehouse on Allen Road to process returned Apple products. Essentially, when fully operational, the plant will sort returned products into those that will either be repaired, returned to the store or scrapped.
In a filing with the South Middleton Township zoning hearing board, Schenker said it intends on employing 420 full-time workers in two shifts.
South Middleton Township officials said an occupancy permit has already been issued for the Schenker/Apple facility.

|Re: [TowerTalk] Antenna switches {Scanned}
|Rick Craig <firstname.lastname@example.com>
|Wed, 13 Sep 2006 10:46:27 -0700
Hi Gregg, since what you need is a fully interlocked antenna switch so that you can never get the two radios on the same antenna, I know of two solutions. Array Solutions makes a "Six Pack switch" that allow two radios to share up to 6 antennas with full interlocking. Add a Top Ten band decoder for each radio to control the relay box and you should be set. A more expensive but I think better quality solution is to use two band decoders from microHam along with one of their two radio, 6 or 10 antenna relay boxes. I think the microHam antenna relay box is much better built than the Array Solutions unit, definitely more water proof if you want to mount it outside. The microHam band decoders allow you to program which antennas are connected for which band and with the Icom radios, they completely decode each band. The Top Ten Icom band decoders combine 10 mtrs with 12 mtrs, as well as 15 mtrs with 17 mtrs. It's not a fault of the Top Ten boxes but a result of how Icom brings out its band data. I've used both systems but prefer the microHam solution. 73 Rick, N6ND This might be a bit off topic but it is the best place I know to ask,so here it goes.I have a decent station set up out here nothing world class but I work what I hear and I can hear a lot.4 towers,lots of metal,fairly quiet blah blah blah.I have a good freind who lives in the city who is also a ham.We have set-up a remote station here for him to use via the internet,I do have DSL out here.We were going to put up a multiband dipole for him but the fear of both being on the same band,which could easily happen,made us decide to just put switches to do an A/B deal.I have several manual swith boxes here.He gets whatever antenna is online.Sometimes I forget to switch the A/B switches.We are looking for a computer/locally controled 12 position antenna switch,plus an A/B switch.Does any one know if these are available.His remote is a 756 PRO II.He doesn't want to use my IC-7800 over the internet,says he doesn't want me to have to unplug/plug the microphone connector,plus it still do esn't solve our antenna choice problem.Any help out there?I know we aren't the first to try this.

An updated version of this story was posted at 7:05 p.m. »
HACKENSACK — A second suspect has been apprehended in connection to the firebombings of two Bergen County synagogues and one Jewish community center in January, authorities said Friday.
Aakash Dalal, 19, of Lodi was the apparent mastermind behind a string of attacks, which started with anti-Semitic vandalism in December and took a violent turn over the course of weeks, Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli alleged at an afternoon press conference.
Molinelli released instant message transcripts, allegedly between Dalal and his co-conspirator, Anthony M. Graziano, the Lodi man arrested several weeks ago in connection to the crimes. The two men have been friends since middle school.
Molinelli said Dalal was a person of interest back in January, after a comment on a news story about the attacks mentioned his name. Dalal was not present at the temple firebombings, but was instrumental in providing Graziano the resources to carry out the attack, police said.
The two men each face as much as 80 years in prison.

It's the sign that no consumer wants to see, announcing the closing of a business, many times with no warning.
"I bought him a gift care and 5 days later, they're closed", said Jackie Smith.
Jackie and Sally Smith decided to do something special for their son on his birthday so they bought him a $50 gift card to one of his favorite restaurants, the Exotic Thai in the Marketplace of Canterbury, when his son tried to use it just a few days later, the business was closed.
"when I bought it from the woman at the restaurant, I feel she should have told me they were going out of business", said Smith.
The Exotic Thai restaurant was open for only a few months and there's not a lease sign posted because we're told the owners are still paying rent on a long term lease.
From tanning salons to pool supply stores, this area has seen its share of abrupt closings, often times leaving customers like the Smith's with useless gift cards. This one is unique in that the restaurant has been closed for two months and there's still not a sign announcing it's closed.
We've also seen a number of companies close and file for bankruptcy protection. In those cases the consumer does drop to the back of the line when it comes to outstanding debts, but Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller told us Surety Bonds are becoming more common and offer some protection for consumers.
Consumers can also file a claim online with the Attorney General's office and if the loss is big enough, a lawsuit might make sense.
One day after we interviewed them, the Smith's disputed their charge with Visa. The company not only returned the $50 but also vowed to review any other recent charges. The Smith's were just one day shy of the 90-day limit to dispute a charge.
"the next time, I'll just take him out to eat", said Jackie.
We did find two other Exotic Thai restaurants in Indiana, but both told us they're not affiliated with the closed Fort Wayne restaurant bearing the same name. In the Fort Wayne area, Vince's, O'Charley's (Lima Road) and Hooter's have all closed in the past few months with no notice to customers. O'Charley's does still have a south location which will accept all gift cards from the closed Lima Road store.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) - Northwest Allen County Schools presented a scaled down 2011 budget Monday night.
The 2011 proposed spending plan will cut $661,208 dollars from the 2010 budget.
The total proposed budget is $58,606,052.
The majority of proposed 2011 cuts were already implemented in August of 2010, and approved in April of 2010.
Most of the 2011 cuts were in reaction to a major loss in state funding and dwindling property tax revenues.
The biggest section to be trimmed was the general fund by $1.7 million dollars.
However, district leaders admit those cuts alone were not enough to balance the 2011 budget.
NACS Business Manager Bill Mallers said the district is using about $1,000,000 in cash reserve savings to balance the 2011 budget.
Meanwhile, health care costs and bus replacement costs are expected to go up.
However, the biggest piece of the budget puzzle is missing right now.
There has been no word if state lawmakers will cut funding in 2011, as they did in 2010.
"We will take a look at every single expenditure that we do and we will measure it against the value that it brings to educating kids," said Northwest Allen County Schools Superintendent Chris Himsel.
"As well as the legal requirements put forth by the federal government and the state government. If it doesn't bring value to keeping us in compliance or in adding value to what we do in providing an education to kids, then we really have to scrutinize whether or not we should be continuing to make that expenditure," said Superintendent Himsel.
If property tax revenues come in lower than expected, transportation and technology funding will most likely see the largest cuts.
A final vote to approve the 2011 budget is expected on Monday, October 4.

Method actor Mickey Rourke will not throw WWE superstar Chris Jericho "around the ring like tossed salad" at April's Wrestlemania, the actor's rep tells the Associated Press, contradicting Rourke's comments at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday.
Rourke, whose detour into the boxing ring in the 1990s did no favors to his career or his face, is experiencing a renaissance due to his role in "The Wrestler." But Rourke won't be participating in Houston's Wrestlemania event, his rep says. "He is focusing entirely on his acting career."

Toto Wolff, a shareholder and director of the Williams team, doubts he will continue his role of driver manager.
That is despite the Austrian's latest charge, Valtteri Bottas, having successfully risen through the ranks to make his F1 debut in 2013.
But Wolff told Switzerland's Motorsport Aktuell that 22-year-old Finn Bottas is more an exception than the rule.
Rather, 'If you now need 100 000 for a national karting season, and 250 000 euros for international, then eventually the level (of the drivers) will drop.'
But Wolff said he hopes drivers with little money but big talent will still be able to rise through the ranks in future.
A current example, he said, is Bottas.
'He never had much money, but he always had support, just because he was good,' Wolff insisted.
But actually, he said managing motor racing drivers is a 'thankless job'.
'If the target fails,' said Wolff, 'everything's the fault of the manager. If everything goes smoothly, you never know what happens – some drivers are champions of short memory.'
He said he has no plans to repeat the Bottas project with another young talent.
'If you have to put two million on the table for GP2, then driver management makes little sense,' said Wolff.

Chinese Travel Agencies To Tourists: Shop Or Else!
GUANGZHOU DAILY, XINHUA NEWS (China), PHOENIX TV (Hong Kong)
WUHAN - Chinese tourists have multiplied in step with the country's booming economy. And like travelers everywhere, they spend a chunk of their time -- and, yes, money -- shopping.
But recently, several travel agencies in Wuhan, in China's Hubei Province, have refused to sign up people for organized tours if they are under 28 years old on the grounds that they won't shop enough, the Xinhua News reported.
These discriminating travel agencies are proposing organized domestic tours to China's southeast scenic spots such as Kunming, Lijiang and ancient city of Dali. The six-day tour including air transport, hotels and food comes at a bargain price of 1760 Yuan ($282). The condition is that the participants have to be at least 28.
"This is because young people are big clients of e-commerce and won't spend much money at the organized shopping spots and the tour guides won't be able to make enough commission", a certain Ms. Chang told the reporter. "If one wants a purely sight-seeing tour with guaranteed quality the fare is between 3000-4000 Yuan ($481-641)."
Indeed, some agencies will charge only the cost of the trip, with a business model that makes money purely on commission from the clients' shopping. But this kind of tour has in fact caused disputes between the tourists, forced to purchase, and the tour guides.
Shopping in Hong Kong (bchow)
This is especially true in Hong Kong, one of Chinese people's favorite shopping destinations, where flocks of Chinese tourists spent on average more than 6000 Hong Kong dollars ($775) on shopping, from baby milk to brand watches or even the most expensive French brandy, according to the data last year of the island's tourist board, the Guangzhou Daily reports.
According to Phoenix Television of Hong Kong, China's National Tourism Administration issued a circular last year demanding that tourism officials enforce their duty of supervising quality, and to put an end to the Zero or negative fare tours.

Callie: I'm excited to present Angela Scavone, author of Love by the Book. Before we hear about Angela, the author, let's find out something about Angela, the person. Tell us a little about yourself.
Angela: I'm a lighthearted people person, who likes to laugh at every chance I can get. When my three little dogs aren't keeping me busy they are keeping my feet warm while I'm writing.
Callie: Ah, the writer always seems to need some type of animal close by to write. Mine are my two rescue dogs and rescue cat. What is your work schedule like when you're writing?
Angela: Very hectic. After working a full eight hours at my day job, I will then come home and work through the night on my project. It makes for a lot sleepless nights and lost meals but it's all worth it in the end to have the story, that is rattling around in my head, finally out on paper.
Callie: It seems that schedule works for you. Love by the Book has gotten wonderful reviews.Where do you get your information or ideas for your books?
Angela: Dreams. My dreams tend to play out like movies, very colorful and detailed. As long as I can remember them when I wake up, I will grab the notepad by my bed and start writing out some of the details before they are lost. I, also, have a little quirk in my dreams that I will dream of a place and then several days, weeks or even years later I will come upon that place in reality. It really creeps some of my friends and family out, when we will travel somewhere we have never been before and I say "Oh I dreamt of this place" then I start describing the road and the kind of houses and buildings that we are going to see along the way, then we see all the things I've described. I tend to use the places that I remember in my stories.
Callie: That's amazing. Sounds like you should be writing paranormal. What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your books?
Angela: I never understood what author's meant by the characters lead the story until I sat down to write an entire novel. I always thought that I was the author therefore I told the characters where they were going to go and what they were going to do. What I learned is that, as long as I have an idea how I want the story to start and end, the character's take the road they see fit during the middle of the story. They take the story to places I never thought it would go and I love that about all my characters.
Callie: I agree. One time I had two characters who would not do what I wanted them to do, until I took them out of the office and put them in a bar with a beer in their hands. I must learn how to make my characters obey. Where do you see yourself, career wise, in five years?
Angela: I would like to have a few more books under my belt and would like to be working full time on my writing career. There's nothing like the thought of waking up in the morning, taking the dogs for a walk and then going into my home office to work…ah the dream.
Callie: Ah, every author's dream. Along with the small cottage in the woods, or a house on the beach in which to do said writing, lol. And lastly, what are you working on now?
Angela: My latest project is a story about a woman officer in the military whose sole job is to go overseas to pick up the bodies of military men and women. The trips start to become dangerous and she is forced to have a partner go with her on the missions to pick up the bodies. Much to her regret she is partnered with her ex husband. There are funny parts to the story as well as parts that make you think about life and what's really important.
Callie: That sounds great. I really look forward to reading that one.
Now that we've learned a little bit about Angela, here is where she hangs out: Angela Scavone
You can buy a copy of Love By The Book here: Soul Mate Publishing
Or here:Amazon
Thank to everyone for stopping by and saying hello to Angela, and her wonderful books.

From carnivals and music to tunnels of terror, everyone from Harry Potter to Winnie the Pooh shouldnt have a problem finding a sweet trick or treat Oct. 31.
Various Halloween and harvest events will be taking place this Friday throughout several of the North Kitsap communities.
Kingstons downtown area will be filled with activities for the young and young at heart.
From 4-6 p.m. at the former site of the Old Country Pet Shoppe in the Kingston Thriftway Shopping Complex, the Kingston Revitalization Association will have bales of hay, an antique tractor and cornstalks set up as the back drop for its annual Halloween costume contest. Kids will also have a chance to get their picture taken in front of the fall set up.
The costume contest starts at 4:30 p.m. and will be for children through the age of 12. The age categories will be newborns-3, 4-7 and 8-12.
Miss Kingston Brenda Stice and princesses Sarah Eddy and Kayla Tippie will be on hand to help judge the costume contest.

Down the street at the Kingston Community Center, from 5-7 p.m., the kid-oriented folks of the Kingston Kiwanis, Kingston Junior High Builders Club and Key Club will be hosting their annual Kingston Halloween Fun House.
Its a non-scary event, as we call it, for the youngsters, said event organizer and Kiwanian Debbie Anderson, noting that the event will include a kid-size maze, a fishing pond, the fire station bounce house and lots of candy.
A life-size Winnie the Pooh is expected to make an appearance and everyone in costume can get their picture taken with the cuddly yellow bear before going through the maze or trying their hand at fishing for numerous prizes.
From 5-8 p.m., Kingston Christian Church across from Kola Kole Park will open its doors with festivities for the community.
Kids can participate in carnival games including tricycle races and bean bag games. The 1950s band Cruzin will perform at the event, which will host and hula-hooping and bubble gum blowing contests.

Hartland Township, Michigan -- Starting this week, I'm planning to include notes about the Flint area running community every Thursday at noon. I'm going to call it the "Weekly Jog." My goal is to compile my notes whether I'm at home in my easy chair (like I am now) or I'm at my desk in the newsroom (when I'm done with all my other work first, of course). Please let me know what you think or if have items to add either by commenting or e-mailing me at email@example.com.
Race in Reese, Michigan: A group of local runners will be traveling north on Saturday to Reese High School, 1696 Van Buren St., MI, 48757, for the last of the Reese Winter Road Races. (If you're like my wife and wondering where Reese is, it's about 15 miles east of Saginaw off M-81). The event features 5K and 10K distances, which start at 10 a.m. and cost $6 for non-Bay Area Runner's Club members, $5 for BARC members.
Flint Journal Catch Your Breath date set: Mark your calendars, the annual 5K and 10K event will be Saturday, July 12. The courses will be new this year because of the construction on the University of Michigan-Flint campus.
Finally rewarded: Ever dream about breaking three hours in a marathon? Read about a man who did it on his 66th try.
Have the winter blahs? I do (who wants to slip on ice or slowly feel parts of your body freeze up?) But that doesn't stop me from running. While I've mostly avoided the outdoors, I've been able to stay in shape on the treadmill. I know, it typically is boring, but here are some tips on how to survive a treadmill run:
• Use headphones for music or TV. My MP3 player starts with the theme song from "Chariots of Fire."
• Run with someone. Chatting with someone you know on the treadmill next to yours can liven things up, and distract you from how fast you're going.
• Vary your pace. I often run a speed workout some call a ladder. I learned this from area runner Chuck Pendergrass. Usually, this makes the time fly by. My routine (which you can vary based on your ability) goes like this:
- 0.25 mile warm-up at 8 mph.
- 0.25 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go 0.25 mile at 10 mph (45 seconds) at 8 mph.
- 0.5 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go 0.5 mile at 10 mph (1:30) at 8 mph.
- 0.75 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go 0.75 mile at 10 mph (2:15) at 8 mph.
- 1 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go 1 mile at 10 mph (3:00) at 8 mph.
- 1 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go 0.75 mile at 10 mph (2:15) at 8 mph.
- 0.75 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go 0.5 mile at 10 mph (1:30) at 8 mph.
- 0.5 mile at 10 mph.
- Half the time it takes to go to 0.25 mile at 10 mph (45 seconds) at 8 mph.
- 0.25 mile at 10 mph.
- 0.25 mile cool down.
That workout takes me about 45 minutes in which I cover about 7.5 miles, and it's not easy. You should start out conservatively with speeds when attempting, and feel free to modify it to suit you (For instance, when I'm not training as hard, I run the top speed at 9 mph or 9.5 mph or I only go as far as 0.5 mile or 0.75 mile before reversing everything). Just remember, you can design your own speed workout too. The important thing is varying your pace seems to help make everything go by much faster.
Age: 33
Occupation: Flint Journal copy editor
Running background: One year of cross country at Livonia Churchill High School in the fall of 1991 (had a crush on a girl, found out I loved running instead). Got hurt in 1992 and quit running while adding "The Freshmen 15" every year in college at Michigan State University (Go Spartans!). Rediscovered running after joining the Flint YMCA and meeting area runners who helped me to achieve all that's below.
Personal records: 16:46 (5K in 2003), 35:25 (10K in 2004), 58:42 (10M in 2004 at the Crim), 1:16:09 (1/2 marathon in 2004), 2:49:03 (marathon in 2003) -- looks like my better days could be behind me (hope not).
Running highlights: Losing about 90 pounds after not really running for about eight years/winning 12 road races in Michigan (all small field events)/completing 15 marathons (including one during an Ironman triathlon in 2004 -- yeah, it was tough, but it was worth it).
Next big race: Any suggestions?

Would love to call this 'Notes from the road,' but after 24 days of sleeping in hotel rooms the last 7½ weeks, I'm afraid the enormity would be overwhelming.
Anyway, there are some random thoughts to get off the desk, so here goes...
- Wasn't surprised to hear about Jalen Courtney's decision to transfer from the LSU basketball program. In fact, I'm happy for him because he's always been a good kid to talk to -- very bright, mature and forthright -- and he needed to find a place where he could play more before the end of his basketball career arrives.
Morehead State is getting a solid player for that level and a better person.
I also think it makes sense for LSU because now one of the army of younger guys on the way into the program will get more minutes next season, which is key for the future.
Because the way Johnny Jones and Co. have fortified the roster so quickly, there's going to be a battle every day for playing time, not just for 2013-14, but the seasons beyond that.
Every inch of progress a young guy makes in practice next year will be valuable in the future.
- Speaking of the future and LSU hoops, ready or not, Jones has accelerated the enthusiasm and level of expectations for the Tigers.
Having been courtside at the Final 4 for three of the best games I've ever seen, I saw three teams (Wichita State was the exception) that I could envision LSU resembling in the next few seasons if the right players blossom quickly (Jarell Martin, Jordan Mickey, Tim Quarterman), stick around (those three and Anthony Hickey) and show up in Baton Rouge (Craig Victor and/or Dante Exum).
Those teams had star power, but more importantly, had players who embraced different roles and young players who clearly had made progress throughout the season and weren't fazed by the magnitude of the Final 4.
Hold up-- I'm not saying LSU is a Final 4 team, so put your arrows away. Not yet anyway.
Should enough pieces fall into place the next few years, and especially if at least two of the Martin-Mickey-Quarterman trio are still playing college ball in 2014-15, it wouldn't shock me to my core if the Tigers are in that conversation by March of that season.
- Although LSU's baseball loss at Alabama was the first time this season the Tigers haven't been able to scrounge up a way to win a close game, I don't sense there's a lot of need to panic.
All the things that had to line up for the Crimson Tide to win a game did: They were desperate, LSU was in a bit of a mental malaise from the night before and Alabama coach Mitch Gaspard's gambles paid off, while Paul Mainieri's backfired.
Specifically, Gaspard twice played with fire by walking Alex Bregman to set up force plays/double plays with Raph Rhymes at the plate, and twice it paid off. Mainieri set those scenarios up by bunting in front of Bregman, which made all the sense in the world.
Along those lines, it's hard for me to imagine opposing coaches continuing to pitch around Bregman to get Rhymes. He's too good to not turn that strategy upside down and backwards at some point.
I'm wondering if Mainieri won't make some lineup tweaks and put Bregman between Rhymes and Mason Katz for a game or two to see if that doesn't light a fuse. Could mean Rhymes hits in the 2-hole and Katz moves to cleanup or just flip-flopping Bregman and Rhymes in the 3- and 4-holes.
I remember hearing Tommy Lasorda -- coincidentally one of Mainieri's four main coaching mentors -- say once that hitters in the 2- and 5-holes wind up with the most RBI chances over the course of a season.
- Just how deep is the LSU pitching staff?
Every time it looks like there's a hole to be plugged because a starter staggers a bit or there's a breakdown in the bullpen, it seems like the Tigers have two guys ready to step forward and fill a different role.
Ryan Eades has seemingly arrived at a lull in a spectacular season, but Cody Glenn comes out the next day and pitches as well as he has all season.
Chris Cotton shows he's actually human after all, but Nate Fury and Kurt McCune pick him and the Tigers up with 6 scoreless innings.
Because of guys like Fury and McCune, the middle relief corps -- which was lodged in the area of a serious question mark like a popcorn shell in your teeth -- has been magnificent the last two weekends.
What I like about the LSU staff is that besides Aaron Nola and Ryan Eades, there may not be a guy who will ever climb that high in pro baseball, but instead are a crew of guys with a bulldog mentality who have learned how to pitch effectively in different situations.
- McCune is a guy who
can fit a lot of different roles for the Tigers down the stretch -- the X
factor, as young grasshopper Hunt Palmer from BayouBengalsInsider.com deems
I've mentioned this a few times on ESPN 104.5 radio with my man Matt Moscona: It wouldn't be a huge surprise if McCune doesn't get a chance to close games down the stretch, especially if Cotton hits a slump.
As for an offensive wildcard, for some reason I still think Tyler Moore could be a guy who hits a hot streak. He has been the Tigers' most reliable pinch-hitter this season and could add some power from the left side whenever LSU faces right-handed pitching.
I fully believe the kid would likely start for a lot of SEC programs, but he's stuck in a situation with a pair of veteran seniors in Rhymes and Katz who came back at their positions and the quick emergence of Christian Ibarra at third base.

What do you do when you've got "Nudding to be At?" You hold a creative and unique fundraising event.
The women behind Nudding to be At Productions Inc., Crystal Dawn Parsons and Anastacia Hopkins, have organized a creative box auction, to be held in the LSPU Hall's Second Space area Sunday evening from 6-9 p.m.
NTBA is a not-for-profit company with a three-part goal: to create interesting, thought-provoking and accessible works of art; to showcase previously unknown local talent and mentor them by giving them opportunities to work alongside more seasoned professionals; and to push and explore boundaries in all forms of art.
The auction will include unique boxes decorated by local artists and performers, including Mark Critch, Jonny Harris, Shaun Majumder, Ruth Lawrence, Berni Stapleton, April Norman, Andy Jones and more. Other items up for bid include textile pieces by Caroline Crawford, a print by photographer Mike Bruff and a gift basket from Whole Health.
The event will feature live music and poetry readings, along with finger foods and a cash bar.
All proceeds raised from the auction will go towards NTBA's debut show, a production of Canadian playwright Norm Foster's comedy "Jenny's House of Joy."
"The choice for Jenny's House of Joy as our first production was a simple one really," explained Hopkins. "First of all, it's an ensemble piece containing an all-female cast of various ages and are all very strong characters in their own ways. This alone is a rarity to find, especially roles for women who are in their 40s or over which are not a mother- or grandmother-type at their core.
"Secondly, it is set in a house of 'ill repute' during 1871, so we have an undercurrent of seriousness, despite the comedy, by looking at the way society treated women back in the Victorian period, and especially how those women were viewed and treated by society when they were not following the path of proper decorum. Basically, Foster is able to make the audience stop and think after the laughter has died down. Finally, we wanted something that would be fun for an audience to see, fun for us to do and help chase the winter blues away for a few hours."

Andrea Pirlo is coming to the end of his Juventus contract.
It has been three great seasons with the Bianconeri after Milan could not agree on an extension to keep one of their greatest players—perhaps doubting whether he could maintain his quality in the latter years of his glittering career.
If the Old Lady do not agree on a new deal, there will be plenty of interested clubs, some of which will come from the English Premier League.
Spurs have already registered an interest, according to the Mirror, but how would Pirlo fare in England?
Here is why he would be as good as ever.

My vegetarian daughter loves this. She makes it several times per week instead of Mac n cheese...and this is much healthier!
Cheddar and Broccoli rice has always been one of my favorite side dishes, but hubby has always hated it until he tried this brand! It is so delicous!! It has a much better flavor than most brands, so quick and easy to make and affordable! It tastes just as good making it in the microwave too!
I LOVE all the Pasta and Rice on the side products. The Cheddar & Broccoli is my favorite! My family and I eat it as a side dish with pork chops, or I add chicken in with the rice and it taste so good. I have tried other brand name Cheddar and Broccoli rices and paid so much more for them and they weren't the same. I would recommend Rice on the Side Cheddar and Broccoli Rice to anyone!
My family LOVES this! It is supper fast and easy! I add boneless, skinless chicken all diced up and serve it as a meal! Even my pickiest of eaters will eat this!
This was the most delicious thing I have ever eaten! i highly recommend it to everyone who shops at Save-A-Lot. :)

The lawsuit against recalled Port Allen mayor Deedy Slaughter regarding her time in office will live on for at least couple more months. In court Tuesday (July 1), a West Baton Rouge Parish judge gave more time to lawyers for a city employee who worked under Slaughter to amend their claims accusing Slaughter of -- among other things -- wrongful termination, defamation and abuse of rights.
Slaughter, who appeared in court, sat in a bench near the front of the courtroom, sidled next to a presumed family member.
Port Allen Chief Administrative Officer Audrey McCain sued Slaughter for wrongful termination, interfering in her duties, legal fees, defamation of character, retaliation and abuse of rights. McCain was reinstated following a judge's order and remains in the position.
Slaughter also faces contempt charges for continuing to meddle with McCain's duties while in office after a judge ordered her not to.
WAFB reports that the next trial date was set for Sept. 16.
"What happened in this case is the mayor switched lawyers seven times," McCain's attorney Seth Dornier said after court adjourned.
Amid allegations that Slaughter improperly paid the attorneys for the lawsuit with city funds, those lawyers were taken off the case. The ones representing Slaughter and the city of Port Allen -- which could be liable if damages granted -- on Tuesday were the fifth, sixth and seventh attorney who have been assigned to it. The city, Donrier said, hired J. Arthur Smith to represent their interests.
Judge Alvin Batiste Jr. granted the dismissal of a defamation charge on the grounds that both Slaughter and McCain were public figures acting in their official capacity as a city employee and mayor -- not private citizens, meaning the burden of proof is greater.
Batiste essentially found the other claims were too vague, which is why he gave McCain's lawyer more time to clarify them.
The judge encouraged the parties to settle before the September court date, a suggestion he's made "at length," Dornier said.
"If we proceed to trial ...the city will not fair well," he said. They haven't, however, made a settlement offer at this point.

Printer drivers evolve to become universal
A printer driver is a piece of software that allows computer applications to print without having to know the technical details of each printer model. Over the years, printer manufacturers have multiplied the number of driver versions available to cope with the evolution of their printer models. Each new model required a new specific driver, leading to a complex range of drivers to maintain. Recently, to reduce this complexity, the concept of universal print drivers has been introduced by the majority of printer manufacturers. The idea is that each vendor provides only one universal driver that will handle their complete range of printer models.
Therefore, to install new printer models on the CERN network, the CERN printing infrastructure has to evolve to this new scenario. There are added benefits, such as increasing availability and standardizing printers as well as the printing process itself. In addition, as more and more users are moving to 64-bit operating systems, the printing service has to evolve to support such universal 64-bit drivers.
New print servers will be introduced and printers will gradually be moved to this printing infrastructure. This migration is currently planned for May 2010 and, for economical reasons, by default all printers will be set to print in black and white on both sides of A4 paper. As before, users will be able to change the default print settings on their computers. A flyer will be distributed shortly to explain how to redefine these print settings.

|Russell Targ, Catherine Austin Fitts
Writer and physicist Russell Targ discussed his role in creating the Remote Viewing program at the Stanford Research Institute during the Cold War, as well his work with psychics and ESP research. "ESP is independent of space and time," and it's non-analytical, i.e. people give descriptions of what they see rather than what it means, he explained. Targ developed ESP experiments in which subjects described outdoor places, as opposed to JB Rhine's well-known ESP testing using cards with different symbols. Targ currently offers an iPhone app called ESP Trainer that he said will help people hone their psychic skills.
Associative Remote Viewing (ARV) can be used for prediction such as in a horse race or the stock market, by having different specific targets or objects represent various outcomes. In his workshops, Targ said he teaches people to help "separate the psychic signal from the mental noise." Stop thinking and "look for the surprising images that appear in your awareness," he continued. He instructs people to draw the surprising image, and not to guess what it is or name it. Often people do quite well with this approach and have their first psychic experience, he added.
Psychics/remote viewers such as Ingo Swann and Pat Price have demonstrated amazing psychic feats, Targ recounted. Swann foresaw an event four days into the future, a Chinese atomic bomb test, when given specific coordinates by the CIA. The late Price correctly ID'd Patty Hearst's kidnapper before he was known, and pointed out where his car would be.
Economic Commentary
First hour guest, financial advisor Catherine Austin Fitts talked about the US Postal Service considering layoffs and cutbacks, as well general economic news. Proprietary trading is taking down countries, she commented. "Greece is basically being hit as an economic matter by the banks and hedge funds...they've stopped being banks and just started being predators."

So I'd like to ask one question. I bought my first sorta gaming machine about 3 years ago. It was a dell XPS 8100. One year later I bought a Radeon HD sapphire 6870 video card and a cooler master GX 650w. After installing the parts my computer began to get increasingly louder. I'm ordering a new system soon though. I'm just curious what caused the sound. Was it the graphics card or the PSU?
What's louder? The fans or is it the sound comming from the PSU or the GPU ans you said?
Is it the sound of a fan that you are hearing, or an electronic noise like a squeak or whistle?
Most Dell systems come with integrated video only, so adding the video card would have added a cooling fan, and in poorly ventilated cases (Dell, like most OEM builders, goes for small case size rather than lots of airflow) a video card's cooling fan can spin up very fast to offset the lack of cool airflow, to keep the GPU from overheating.
As an example, my video card (HIS HD 4670) never spins faster than 50%, even at full load, but the system case has several intake fans which direct air into the area where the GPU cooler is. Lots of fans at low speed helps a lot in producing a quiet PC.
If you are getting a squeak or whistle, chances are it is the power supply, or MAYBE a bad capacitor on the motherboard's PSU power circuit, but usually a bad capacitor on the motherboard will just fail and the system won't boot. Dell PSUs are cheap, decent quality but not made for the robustness you expect from Corsair (made by Seasonic or Channel Well) or OCZ (Impervio, Topower, Sirtec) and squeaky components happen as those systems Dell uses age.
ADDED: A PSU full of dust can be noisy, too. One of my kids' PC (HP) was getting louder and louder, so I took the PSU out and blasted a ridiculous amount of dust out of it. It still isn't totally quiet (the fan bearings are going bad) but it is a lot quieter. I ended up building them a new system (Christmas present), which is good because I expect that PSU (or the fan) to fail soon anyway.
I guess it's the fans that make the noise. The case has almost no airflow whatsoever. But then again I haven't cleaned the insides for a loong time.

How to keep healthy boundaries in your relationships
respect for the gifts and abilities of others... just as I expect respect for my readings as I am a reader who has the utmost respect for my callers. And as such I would never presume to tell a caller that my reading is more accurate than anothers.... it is an issue that apparently does occur frequently. I never assume or presume that another did not provide an honest accurate read on a situation when they read on it even if they got something completely different than I did when I read on it. I usually tell the caller that is what he/she got when they read and this is what I get on it, I cannot change, what I see or do not see just because another did not get the same.
The reason I felt driven to write this blog, was that a client emailed me that she had received an email from an advisor who told her in no uncertain terms that she was being fed false hope and harmful delusions when she was being told that she would be contacted by a man she had been involved with. Frankly I would never tell a caller that I saw contact if I did not SEE that contact. I am the last reader who would ever give ANYONE I read for false hope. I waited over two years for a call that did not come, and it took me 18 months to *COP ON* before I realized that I had wasted all that time, and it was my choice to do so, but all the time being told that the call would come. So any reader who thinks that they know *ALL* may not in fact have all the answers. It is necessary to have respect even if you as a reader got something different when you read on the same issue or question.....
I do not expect from others what I cannot or will not provide for others myself.... There may in fact be many answers to a question..... and no one can judge the abilities of others nor should they do so...

Endsley, Logsdon named outstanding Maui elders
Lahaina resident Richard Endsley and Kula resident Diane Logsdon have been selected as winners of the 45th annual Outstanding Older Americans of Maui County, the county Office on Aging, Aging and Disability Resource Center announced.
Endsley achieved the honor for his service to the West Maui community, according to an announcement. He has served as president of Lahaina Intermediate School's Education Foundation and its After-School Tutoring Project. He also volunteers for the Lahaina Restoration Foundation, the Lahaina-Honolua Senior Citizens Club, the LahainaTown Action Committee and Lahaina Hongwanji.
Logsdon was honored for her service as treasurer, community service chairwoman and president of the AARP Kula Chapter. She also serves as recording secretary for Maui Economic Opportunity's Senior Citizens Planning and Coordinating Council and the Puunene Branch of the Maui Friends of the Library, where she also edits the monthly newsletter.
The awards were presented at a May 7 luncheon in the Maui Beach Hotel's Elleair Rainbow Ballroom. May is Older Americans Month, when elders across the nation are recognized for their extraordinary efforts and contributions to society.
Endsley and Logsdon were selected from a field of 11 Maui County residents who are at least 65 years of age. Other nominees honored at the luncheon included Henry K. Allen, Artemio C. Baxa, Takeo Miyaguchi, Pasita Pladera, Fred Ruge, Julie Shiotsugu, Ali Thompson, John Tryggestad and Robyn Walters.
The nominees and winners received congratulatory certificates from Mayor Alan Arakawa and Gov. Neil Abercrombie's Maui liaison, JoAnn Inamasu.
The winners received engraved koa clocks from the Maui County Office on Aging's Aging and Disability Resource Center and certificates from the state Legislature and the Maui County Council.

Pro performance designed for you.
Fizik designed the Arione Donna Women's Saddle for riders who wanted the pro-level quality they could find in men's saddles with the anatomical design they need for comfort. It starts with the shape of the saddle accommodating your wider sit bones and uses high-density foam padding to create a pressure-relief channel along the length of the saddle. Foam doesn't mean the saddle is squishy. The Arione Donna is somewhere between medium and firm on the Fizik scale.
Made from carbon-reinforced nylon, the shell uses WingFlex technology to flex downward where inner thighs contact the saddle, creating more efficient, full-range motion while pedaling. Fizik made the saddle rails from K:ium alloy, a proprietary material that has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than full titanium and is highly resistant to corrosion.

Best Women's saddle
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have found this Donna VS Fizik saddle to be the best saddle I have ever used for mountain bike/ trail riding. The VS channel makes a huge difference to overall comfort and there is the right amount of padding in the key places.
After two years there is very little wear and tear on the Donna. I ride in the mud all the time, washing my bike routinely, and the color hasn't faded at all. The foam has also maintained its shape perfectly.
Construction of these seats, and the quality Fizik offers is top notch. This is my go to seat on a day to day basis.

A 25-year-old Detroit man was arrested on Monday night after police say he hit a bicyclist and left him for dead.
Police say the unidentified man was driving on Detroit's east side when he hit a man who was riding his bike, according to WDIV, WXYZ and the Detroit Free Press. The suspect allegedly stopped to remove the bicyclist from his windshield, then drove away without helping the man or reporting the accident.
The suspect was found hiding in a neighbor's house late last night, and is expected to be arraigned on Wednesday, according to WDIV. Reports say the victim is in critical condition.
The is the second publicized hit-and-run case in metro Detroit since Sunday. John Orlando, 41, faces three felony charges for hitting and killing 38-year-old John Secord, who was walking home from a Harrison Township bar early Sunday morning. Secord was left in a ditch for several hours after the accident and died at Mount Clemens Regional Hospital later that day.
Alcohol is believed to be a factor in both hit-and-run cases.

UPDATE: Citi Downgrades T. Rowe Price Group
In a report published Tuesday, Citi analyst Neil Stratton downgraded T. Rowe Price Group (NASDAQ: TROW) to Neutral from Buy, dropping its price target to $85.00 from $93.00.
According to the report, the downgrade represents recent fund closures and PM turnover are likely to temper flow recovery. 2014 is now seen as yet another tepid flow year for TROW, likely limiting price appreciation given already premium valuation, mixed margin dynamics and uneven capital management.
"On 1/16, the PM for TROW Growth Stock unexpectedly resigned," the report noted. "This manager oversaw ~$52B in growth equity AUM, including ~$42B in mutual funds and ~$10B in other mandates. The announcement follows partial closures on New Horizons and Small Cap Stock, as well as PM changes in 2013 for Health Sciences and New America, casting uncertainty on nearly 20% of AUM and recent flow drivers. We do not see the same optical pressures akin to that recently experienced by IVZ but the incremental flow picture/recovery argument is now watered down and likely to temper upside, in our view."
TROW closed Friday at $81.86.
