It was my first purchase of these socks, and I am so pleased that I did: they are comfy and right size: my shoe size is 6.5 (woman), and socks I had bought were often too big, but not these ones, medium size fits perfectly! I jog two or three times a weeks and could really tell the difference these socks make. Even in the summer heat, my feet breath well and feel dry. I will definitely buy these socks again! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
My son has an extra wide, large foot (14EEEE) and finding socks that not only fit, but are actually comfortable (aka soft) and don't slide down on the heel. He honestly will wear nothing else and they last despite his teenage shenanigans. They stay soft after numerous washings --- and the black and grey don't fade. I have tried socks from every brand (literally) and we love these socks! Don't know what we would do without them.
I first bought these socks 5 years ago, and I've been looking for more in the same style ever since then. I like that they're thick at the toes and in the heel (where I usually get holes in my socks), but thin and breathable in the arch. Also, they have thick padding for where the back of your foot reaches the shoe--which is where I usually get blisters. These are the only socks that protect the back of my feet.
These are the best socks... super comfortable and durable!
I originally purchased a 3 pack of Magellan socks 3-4 years ago and really liked them. After a while, they got some holes in them and I ordered another 3 pack. Unfortunately, these socks, while they look the same, are not as substantial as the original socks. The material is thinner and more stretchy. I suspect they will feel just fine, but will not last as long as the original ones I bought.
Beware, these are not the light grey socks pictured on the Academy site! Magellan has switched to a dark grey and that's what they send. Oops! Light grey no longer available I guess!
My sons love these socks. They are soft and breathable. One son says that they are more comfortable than any of his other soccer socks. Plus, they don't make his legs itch. Bonus is that they are all black, which is a requirement for game play.
I purchased this item in small thinking they were an adult small since the description said for sizes 7-9. Well I received a youth small and had to return them. Although the descriptions online are not clear, I still gave the sock 4 stars because I was able to do a painless in store exchange and the sock is good quality, not too thick and not too thin.
These socks were bought for our son who is a rower.
My husband began wearing these socks about a year ago. He states that after 50 years of looking for the perfect sock..these are it!! Keep their shape, dry feet, stay in place and are the best!
Love the socks. Bought these to compliment my white pair of the same type. Having worn Dri-Fit socks for years, I know of their comfort and breathability while exercising. Be careful when ordering this item online though because the sizing measurements are off. The sizes vary based on the Item Number and Academy has one item listed as size 9-11 and another item listed as size 10-13 while Nike has them listed as size 6-8 and size 8-12. So when I ordered a size "9-11" I received a size "6-8" and ... had to return them. Wish the socks were stocked in-store then I wouldn't have had to deal with that hassle.
Great socks!! They really keep your feet dry and comfortable.
Bought for wife to wear with her correctional officer work boots.In her words even though she is on her feet all day,walking on concrete, on the prison yard, in cold and hot weather these socks keep her feet dry all the time.
I bought these socks, because I wanted some that had cushioning. I was wearing cheaper socks for years, and had blisters on my feet and heels. What a difference these socks made! I'm so glad I bought these. I am an adult woman , who wears a size 5 in girls/boys shoes. These socks support my arch, don't take up room in my shoes, and the seams don't rub my toes. I laundered the socks in a bra bag, using the casual cycle on my washer, which uses cool water, with liquid fabric softener. Then, I ... removed the socks from the bag, and dried them on medium heat. They did not shrink, fade, pill or tear up. They are soft and easy to put on. Also, the length of these socks is mid way up my leg. I would recommend this product, because the quality is good and the price is reasonable.
very happy that i thought them they are excellent and very comfy
These are my favorite socks!! They are cushioned for running and soft to the touch. They also hold up very well. Wish I could get them in black too!
I don't like a sock that's too thin, nor too thick. These are perfectly in the middle!
We purchased the socks today...my husband goes to the gym all the time and needed some socks that were comfortable and help his feet not sweat
I've used these several times since I first purchased them and they are perfect. They stay in place; no pulling down at the heel like other brands I've tried, and fit nicely around my foot. I plan on buying more.
Thks....Good product..great service would recommend
I have bought three packs of these socks in this last year and will continue to wear them. Great comfort!
I am very satisfied with the order from Academy! I had 4 different sock packages, different sizes, and colors and everything came exactly as I ordered them!
Have had these for a long time and they have held up very well. So much so that I've waited to buy more socks until I can find this specific style again!
Got them for Christmas love them very comfortable feel great
I buy two packs of these every year around Christmas time. These socks outlast any other socks I've tried. And you can't beat $40 for 20 pairs. These socks help your feet breathe and are basically performance socks at a great price. I will definitely continue to buy these from academy as long as they carry them.

Basically non-perishable goods that they can hand out."Again, taxpayers can visit one of the three H&R Blocks in the area to get in on the deal.You'll find them in Bangor at 15 Perkins Street and inside Sears, at the Bangor Mall.

Scrumptious ANTIQUE VICTORIAN 14K Tri-Gold & Natural Pearl Locket
Welcome to ROBINS NEST MIDWEST! May I offer....
AGE: C.1880 or so
ITEM: Made of 3 colors of gold (yellow, rose and green), may I present this simply breathtaking Victorian locket. Fashioned of 3 tiers, this piece has so much going on, it's hard to know where to start with the description! The bale has a "chain" embellished on the top - in Victorian parlance that means "chained to one's heart or locked in one's keeping". There are 3 pearls at the top center - these represent tears though sometimes they can also mean betrothal. There are leaves - small buds - etching and at the back, an engraved sentiment - YKC from HTV (hope I got those initials right). Locket back opens easily (closes with a snap) to reveal a glass section that really just seems to fall out. There is a nice deep interior to place a sentiment or a photo - just make sure a touch of padding is added.
CONDITION: Excellent with no problems I can spot. There is some tarnish to the piece so this shows as "dark" in the photos. Believe me, this is a natural occurrence that happens only with 100 years of age! NOTE: The back initials can be removed by a jeweler proficient in repairing antique jewelry - either by removal with a buffer or a fill with liquid gold.
METAL CONTENT: 14K Gold
HALLMARKS: Being American Victorian there is none - metal has been acid tested for content.
SIZE: From top of chain bale to bottom measures 2-3/16"; width is 1-5/16". Back opening is 3/4" x 1-1/8".
WEIGHT: 14.5 grams
FINAL COMMENTS: Just needs the right book chain or thick chain to make it complete (mine's just for show).

By Janet Novack
Let's face it. Most of us put off tax chores from time to time---not as chronically or recklessly as Congress, but often enough that it can end up costing us. So as a service to the frazzled, here are 10 money saving moves that must be made before Dec. 31 and five others that can be safely postponed until the beginning of next year.
1. Grab expiring tax breaks. Dozens of tax breaks expire on Dec. 31, and while Congress is likely to reauthorize some of them retroactively, others could permanently disappear. So, for example, if you're self employed or own a small business and are in the market for a new vehicle, consider buying before Dec. 31. Until then you can write off the full cost of purchasing a new luxury SUV—provided it's used 100% for business and its gross vehicle weight is more than 6,000 pounds. (More details here.) If you're considering making energy efficient home improvements, get the work done before Dec. 31 to take advantage of an expiring $500 tax credit. (More on this green credit here.) What about the expiring payroll tax cut you've heard so much about? Unless you run the payroll department of a business, there's nothing you need to do about it.
2. Check the terms of your medical FSA. With a medical flexible savings account, money is deducted from your salary before tax and put in an account to pay medical, dental and vision expenses not otherwise covered by insurance. The catch is, by law, any money you don't spend in the year it's saved is forfeited. Back in 2005, the IRS ruled that employers can give workers an extra 10 weeks---meaning until March 15th of 2012 if a plan is on a calendar year, as most are---to use up their cash. But not all employers allow this grace period. So check your plan terms and FSA balance immediately---you might need to order those new contact lenses or go to the chiropractor before Dec. 31. (For surprising ways to use up your FSA dollars, including driving to Wal-Mart to pick up a prescription, click here.)
3. Get charitable checks in the mail or donate online. To claim a deduction for a 2011 charitable contribution, you must mail your check by Dec. 31. You don't have to worry about the check actually clearing before the end of the year, but play it safe and put it in the mail before the 31st. Any donations you charge to your credit card by Dec. 31 are also deductible for 2011, even if you don't pay your credit card bill until next year. You'll find 12 tips for yearend charitable giving from Kelly Phillips Erb, a.k.a. Taxgirl, here . If you would like a deduction for 2011 and aren't sure yet what charity you want to benefit, Ashlea Ebeling explains here the appeal of a donor advised fund. By contributing to one of these funds, you can claim a deduction for 2011 and then dribble out the money to specific charities when you're ready. For help picking a worthy charity, Forbes rates the 200 largest here.
4. Accelerate other deductions into 2011. Consider making your Jan. 1, 2012 mortgage payment, or paying state and local tax bills due in January, before the end of 2011. That will give you the tax savings from those itemized deductions a year earlier. Warning: If you are subject to the alternative minimum tax or expect to have a much higher income in 2012 than you had for 2011, accelerating deductions can backfire---so check with a tax pro if you think you might be in that situation.
5. Harvest capital losses if you have them. Sell losing positions in your taxable (meaning non-retirement accounts) to offset any taxable capital gains you've realized during the year. Didn't take any gains this year? Watch out, your mutual fund may have taken them for you; taxable gains get passed on from funds, even if you've sold no shares. Anyway, up to $3,000 a year in net capital losses can be used to offset ordinary income (say from your salary), and the rest of any excess losses you harvest can be banked to offset gains in future years. Forbes Investment Strategies columnist William Baldwin explains the basics of capital gains here and how to harvest losses without risking missing out on a market move or running afoul of the "wash-sale" rule here.
6. Make annual gifts to family and friends. You can give $13,000 a year to as many people as you want without it counting against the amount you can give during your life without having to pay gift tax. That lifetime gift tax exemption is currently $5 million, but is scheduled fall to $1 million in 2013. The annual exclusion is a use it or lose it proposition---if you don't use the 2011 exclusion by Dec. 31, you can't bank it. (Deborah Jacobs has more advice on tax smart ways to give to family and friends here.)
7. Contribute to a 529 state college savings plan. Thirty-seven states permit you to claim an income tax deduction (anywhere from $500 to Pennsylvania's generous $13,000 per beneficiary) for contributing to a 529 state college savings plan. But to get the tax break for 2011, you must contribute before the end of the year. You can find an up-to-date list of breaks here at Savingforcollege.com. This isn't just for people saving for their kids' or grandkids' educations. If you're planning to go to graduate school, you can contribute to a 529 for yourself. In fact, Ashlea Ebeling explains here that you can contribute in December, bank your tax break, and then use the money in the 529 for graduate classes in 2013. (Of the states that give tax breaks, only Indiana has a 12 month holding period before you can use a contribution.)
8. If you're self-employed, set up a one-person 401(k) . So long as you set up a one-person 401(k) by Dec. 31, you can make contributions for 2011 until the due date of your 2011 return with extensions—as late as Oct. 15, 2012, if you operate as an unincorporated sole-proprietor attaching a Schedule C to your individual tax return. Mutual fund companies, including Fidelity, the Vanguard Group and T. Rowe Price offer easy-to-setup one-person 401(k)s, as do Charles Schwab , Merrill Lynch and Edward Jones. More on the benefits of a solo 401(k) is here.
9. If you're an employee, max out your 401(k). If you have an accommodating payroll department and haven't yet contributed the maximum allowed to a 401(k) for 2011, you might still be able to get money withheld from that last paycheck of the year. For 2011 you can contribute up to $16,500, or $22,000 if you're 50 or older, to a pre-tax 401(k), a Roth 401(k) or a combination of the two. Contributions to a Roth won't save you any 2011 tax, but the money in a Roth grows tax free and you can be withdrawn from the account tax free when you retire or before that if you leave the company, have had the account for at least five years and are 59 1/2 or older.
1o. Take required minimum distributions from IRAs. If you're over 70 ½ or have inherited an IRA from someone other than a spouse, you must take an annual required minimum distribution from your IRA by Dec. 31. (If you just turned 70 ½ this year, your first RMD can wait until as late as April 1 2012. That's April 1, not April 15th.) Your RMD for 2011 is based on the balance in your IRA as of Dec. 31, 2010 and your age, in some cases your spouse's age, and whether the account is your own or an inherited one. (There are three different tables in the appendices of IRS Publication 590 for calculating the percentages of your balance you must withdraw.) Note that while you don't have to take an RMD from your own Roth IRA, if you have inherited a Roth from someone other than a spouse, you must take RMDs.
Whew! Well, at least these five items can wait until after January 1st.
1. Fund an IRA for 2011. You have until April 17th 2012 (the due date for 2011 tax returns) to make a contribution to a traditional or Roth IRA. Note that the April date holds even if you get an extension to file your taxes. Those with earned income can contribute up to $5,000 a year ($6,000 if they're 50 or older) to a traditional or Roth IRA, or a combination of the two. There are, however, income restrictions on who can open a deductible IRA or contribute to a Roth. (Details here.) If your teenage children had earned income in 2012, consider opening a Roth IRA for them. (More on this and other ways to turn your kids into millionaires here. )
2. If you're self-employed or moonlighting, open a SEP IRA. A 401(k) isn't the best option for everyone with self-employment income. For example, if you are moonlighting and have a regular job with a 401(k), a SEP IRA is a better choice. That's because one annual limit for contributions to a 401(k) applies to all your 401(k) accounts, combined. That means you might be able to save more in a SEP IRA. Even better, you have until the due date of your 2011 returns, with extensions—meaning until Oct. 15th 2012---to set up and fund a SEP IRA for 2011. For more on the best retirement plans for the self-employed, see Kerry Hannon's rundown here.
3. Pay fourth quarter estimated taxes. If you're self employed or will owe more than has been withheld from your salary, you have until January 17th 2012, to pay your fourth quarter estimated taxes for 2011. Most states give you until mid January too, but if you want to deduct that fourth quarter state tax payment on your 2011 federal income tax return, you must get the money to your state before Dec. 31.
4. Begin your wealth transfers. If you've already made those $13,000 annual gifts for 2011, you can wait until after the first of the year to consult an attorney about transferring more wealth. But don't delay too long. The current estate tax law, which allows you to give $5 million to your kids and grandkids while you're alive, expires at the end of 2012---at which point the amount you can give away drops to $1 million. Moreover, certain sophisticated techniques—such as a grantor retained annuity trust—that enable you to give away a lot more than $5 million, benefit from current low interest rates. Plus, there's no guarantee such techniques won't be limited in any future deal to renew the $5 million exemption. (In fact, the Obama Administration has proposed restrictions.)
5. Write to your Congressman. Fed up with how uncertain the tax code has become, with dozens of provisions expiring each year? Enjoy your holiday now and write an angry letter after the good cheer has worn off.

| NivalKenival chapter 23 . 12/17/2011
OMG you had better be writing more soon...I don't know weather to be angrey, ashamed, or pleased with you. Your writing is amazing but how could she do that to Horatio? Thats what I am angery and ashamed about, but the fact that her heart won't give up on Horatio makes me very pleased...Your an awesome writer and I was in tears when I red this decite.
| NivalKenival chapter 4 . 12/17/2011
omg poor horatio...sorry but I only usually review after I've red all of it but this is so sad *bursts into tears* I will shut up now until the end
| Tireless Ship of The Line chapter 23 . 6/22/2011
Cliff hanger! Aww please please please pick this up again! I love your hornblower stories - just read for better and for worse yesterday, and this today! Maybe Archie swears too much but then again I feel like Archie has that cheeky, slightly bad boy vibe.
| wonderwomanfan chapter 23 . 2/14/2011
No not a cliffhanger! Please submit more chapters soon!
| wonderwomanfan chapter 1 . 2/13/2011
I really like this series. I love Emma, she is perfect for Horatio. I hope you finish book 2.
| Ioan Obsessed chapter 1 . 2/3/2011
I really really LOVE your stories, but COME ON! Emma and Archie? What about Horatio? I'm seriously losing love for Emma, and she rocked my world. I'll be so upset if she doesn't stay with Horatio... But that's just my beef with the story. Your writing is really top notch. Please keep it up, 'cause I'm totally addicted.
| Tarellethriel chapter 23 . 10/22/2010
Just read the whole thing (For Better or Worse In Sickness and In Health) in a couple of days and I just can't seem to get enough!
First of all, I'm impressed at how well you picture that time. The words are just right. Maybe Archie swears a bit much, but part from that...
At first it annoyed me how close the storyline is to the TV series - I had no doubt Archie would turn up in a prison somewhere, and that Simpson would die in a duel, but especially a little while into this one, it's your own story - and a highly interesting one, too (winks)
But I miss Horatio! I can see, why he has been left out so far, but how I miss him. Hopefully, he'll come to the rescue soon. (And I can't help but wonder, who will Emma choose? Or will the three of them live happily ever after together? I suggest that Emma sleep in the middle (laughs))
And the whole relationship is so beautifully portraied. Emma and Horacio, what a love - so pure. But Emma turning to Archie seems just right. It would have been too much, to have her living with him like that, but never giving in to him, waiting loyaly for her husband who might never come. All of Emma's emotions seems just right and I am looking forward to see what happens, when Horatio rejoins the story!
| ell la weasel chapter 1 . 12/28/2009
cant wait to read the next in your hornblower series, i feel in love with your emma oc. she really is a perfect match for horatio :) i cant wait to see what they get up to this time
| weasel chapter 23 . 12/28/2009
i need to ask now, should i give up on the hope that emma and horatio will get back together happily? or is she gonna break his heart n run off with archie? i really hope u dont bring a emma/archie baby into the mix too.
but as i love your style of writing and in vain im hoping for a happy emma/horatio ending, i shall carry on reading your amazing stories :)
| ell chapter 20 . 12/28/2009
is emma gonna be pregnant wiv archie's baby? i really really hope not, bring back horry quick :( otherwise i am really enjoying your stories
| ell chapter 18 . 12/28/2009
so is emma leaving horry for archie? i hope not :(
| Maaike chapter 23 . 10/30/2008
So I've just finished reading your Hornblower series up-till now and I'm rather impressed! Emma have matured a great deal since the first book and I rather like it. All I want to know what Emma and Archie are going to do when they meet Horatio. My first thought was that perhaps Archie himself would sacrifice himself and simply leave, but Emma and Archie both now crossed the point of no return. I even can imagine Emma preferring and marrying Archie at this point (cus our Horatio is all about loyalty and I doubt he'd forgive his wife, and he's not stupid enough NOT to suspect) I just hope you don't kill either one of them, I've become rather attached to Emma & Archie, perhaps even more so than Emma & Horatio. Ah I'm rambling, sorry! Anyway AWESOME story! Oh my only criticism is that I find ice or ice cubes very unlikely since they don't have any freezers in that time. They did, however, made a lot of use of basements and caves to keep things cooled. I do hope you keep updating it. I'll be checking back regularly!
| AmicableAlien chapter 23 . 8/9/2008
Good God woman!
And you just left it there! On a freaking CLIFFIE!
There is no justice in this world when good stories get left on the shelf like this.
| La Lupara chapter 23 . 7/25/2008
I love this! I know its been a while since you've added to this story last but Im begging you to continue. Really!
| fandomorama chapter 23 . 1/12/2008
good god woman! i loved this story!1
and then i realized the last update time and i'm kinda upset!
you abandoned this fic? it was going out so good!
please come back to it!
i enjjoy a lot your bsg fics too, and iloved this one, i adore your writing and the smut turn me on :D

West Plains FireFighter

So whats the story on this new full time guy for West plains Fire Department? His facebook shows him doing all sorts of illegal activities, and I bet he doesnt even have a cdl to drive those big red things! thats illegal too! Do we really want this untrained, yahoo driving fire trucks and protecting our city?
#2 Dec 12, 2012
So I guess West Plains doesn't do any background checks that cost 19.95?
#3 Dec 12, 2012
Who is this new fire fighter?
#4 Dec 12, 2012
I think his name is Casey griffin
#5 Dec 12, 2012
They call me the fireman......that's my name. I go around town putting out old flames.......
#6 Dec 12, 2012
Makin my rounds all over town. Dumbass.
#7 Dec 12, 2012
I passed the agility last time and the interview, but was not hired. seems with a spotless record and 12 years having my FF1+2, and military experience, is no good there, just politics.
ok anyways i hear morale there is really bad.
#8 Dec 21, 2012
If you wanna know the story grab a chair and clear your schedule cause its gonna be a long one for all you ignorant topix people. Casey has been my bestfriend for about 6 years now and is probably the best damn person that I know. He wouldnt hesitate to give you the shirt off his back like most spineless people in todays society. Casey grew up working along side a fire department and all sorts of emergency responders his whole life and has saved numerous peoples lives from car accidents to going into houses burning down to get people. Not to mention being scuba certified and instead of partying spring river like most, hes the one that gets to fish for all the drunk idiots who've drowned. As far as illegal activities go, do me a favor and name a few because I cant think of any that hes done, and I'd know considering when I didnt have a place to stay casey and his parents opened up their home to me and I lived with them for a good while. Almost everytime casey did anything social since we were 15 I was there and nothing illegal ever happened; and as far as a cdl goes, if hes the only one with access to the truck at the moment wouldnt it be a little more important that he leave and meet everyone with the truck where the emergency is, instead of having to wait for someone with a cdl?! Who gives a shit about a license when peoples lives are at stake. This "untrained yahoo" has had YEARS of experience and does a hell of a lot better than you or anyone that you know could. So since everyone is so concerned, pay the $20 do a background check, then when it comes back clean, go ahead and feel like an idiot the rest of eternity for spending your life savings on something you were nosey about that just smacked you in the face. People like you are a disgrace to those who serve their country/ community. Casey and I are two of the few people we went to school with who have bettered, and are continuing to better ourselves. Instead of going to college and underage partying for multiple years until getting fat and failing out and then being worthless impacts on society with multiple dui's or public intox's, some actually give a shit about other peoples well being and decide to do all they can to protect them. Ive been in the military for almost 3 years now and have deployed to Afghanistan and im here to tell you if your worried about a local firefighter who does his job damn good haveing a cdl or not, you need to just crawl back into your hole and not come back out. Until he does anything wreck-less or something that threatens someone elses life, or fails miserably at his job, keep your mouth shut and mind your own business and next time instead of being a "concerned citizen" put your name or since you stalked his facebook, click message and talk to him about your concerns instead of posting drama on a site full of ignorance.

why not they have crooked Chris Thompson on the fd, id be more worried bout the crooks in pd and sheriffs dept.
#10 Dec 25, 2012
he graduated in 2010 and has YEARS of experience? in hardy arkansas? with what, his sister?
where did he steal those mcdonald trays he is sliding his truck on in that parking lot? all the rest of the people hired have had their cdl b4 they work on their own but not him. i herd it was something about his daddy and the chiefs church being the same, ain't his daddy a deacon in the coc or his graddaddy? politics is politics they had plenty of other good people with the same or more qualifications. this just proves it is not who you know it is who you blow
#11 Dec 25, 2012
chris thompson aint been on west plains fire for years now
#12 Dec 31, 2012
Obviously you people are blind. That was a car that was sliding around the parking lot and not a truck. The person driving the car was David and he was written a citation for it. My father is not a deacon and I do not attend a chuch of christ. I was raised in a Baptist Church. Anything else you would like to know? Its funny how that video is on my facebook which is set to private so only my "friends" can see it. Looks like I will be removing the people I added from West Plains since all they want to do is stir up trouble. Looks like some people are very bitter and sore.
#13 Jan 1, 2013
Remove all you want. i was shown it i am not even on a fire department now or your facebook

This image from the early 19th century depicts the Covent Garden Theatre, one of London's foremost auditoriums, renowned for its pantomimes, plays and operas. The building was first opened in 1732 under the management of John Rich, who exploited the Letters Patent granted to the theatre to monopolise plays of purely spoken word. However, as the century advanced a more diverse range of theatrical and operatic bills were offered there, including performances of Handel oratorios and other operatic pieces, attracting a distinctly (though never exclusively) middle-class audience compared to the rough and tumble of other London venues.
The theatre shown here was totally destroyed by fire in September 1808, though rebuilding work began quickly. To cover the costs of reconstruction entry prices to the new theatre were raised and the number of available cheaper seats in 'the pit' reduced, much to the dissatisfaction of the general public. The first play to be performed there, Macbeth, was constantly interrupted by hissing and booing from the angry audience and protestors occupied the building until the early hours of the morning. Disturbances at the theatre continued for another three months thereafter, dubbed 'the Old Price Riots' by the metropolitan press. Peaceful audiences only returned to Covent Garden theatre after the manager, John Kemble, issued a public apology and reversed the hike in entrance fees.
Background to the Microcosm of London collection of prints
The Microcosm of London was published in three volumes between 1808 and 1810 as a result of an ongoing collaboration between publisher Rudolph Ackermann, cartoonist and illustrator Thomas Rowlandson and architectural draughtsman Auguste Charles Pugin. The image shown here was first issued as a loose leaf number that was collated later into separate volumes, all of which proved highly successful as a commercial publishing enterprise.
The Microcosm of London tapped into the demand for highly-coloured prints of real-life subjects that proved something of a publishing sensation during the Regency period. As such, the prints stand as a fascinating historical record of London life in the early years of the 19th century. While Pugin's fine architectural drawings capture the size and shape of the capital's principal buildings (both externally and from within) Thomas Rowlandson's keenly observed figures depict the sheer colour and vitality of late Georgian society, rich and poor alike.

This blog comes from Emily, our marketing coordinator, who is a proud graduate of our Lipper Internship Program.
On Sunday, October 27, a hundred of my fellow "Lippers" and I gathered for the first ever Lipper Alumni Reunion. Lipper is a name affectionately used when referring to college interns here at the Museum who completed the rigorous Lipper internship program. Over the course of a semester, Lippers, who are paid interns, are trained to lead tours of the core exhibition and give classroom lessons on the Holocaust to middle and high school students.
The Lipper internship was undoubtedly a formative experience in my college career. It was both inspiring and empowering to have the opportunity to teach students about a subject that matters so much to me. Besides providing this invaluable teaching experience, the program was also remarkable in the way that it fostered close bonds between participants. Throughout the course of the internship, we not only learned important lessons from the survivors and lecturers who spoke to us, but also from one another. The Lipper internship is a deep and unique experience that we all share, and yet, coming from a diverse range of universities and backgrounds, it is a challenge to stay in touch once the program is over.
The reunion was the perfect setting for us not only to reconnect with the individuals in our intern class, but to meet those who participated in the program before and after us. It was great to catch up and hear about what everyone had gone on to do after college. Many of the people in my group pursued careers in fields closely related to the internship such as teaching, museum work, and Jewish community engagement. We were also privileged to hear from Museum Director Dr. David Marwell, Dr. Evelyn Lipper who represented our supporters at the EGL Charitable Foundation, and Ivy Barsky, former deputy director of the Museum, who worked tirelessly to bring the program to fruition. Holocaust survivor Sally Frishberg, who shared her testimony with many of us during training, also spoke about the importance of Holocaust education. We learned that collectively, we have taught 65,000 public school students throughout the Tri-state area.
It was truly a meaningful experience to be back at the Museum together and one that I'm sure we will all remember for a long time. For more information about the internship, click here (http://www.mjhnyc.org/LipperInternship_2012.pdf)
This program is made possible by the EGL Charitable Foundation with support from the

The cause of the clashes that have killed at least 23 people in Cairo since Saturday is easy to identify: It is the failure by Egypt's military rulers to unambiguously commit themselves to a plan and a timetable for handing over power to a democratically elected government. The solution is equally clear: The generals must immediately adopt such a road map — one that provides for a political transition in a matter of months.
The first of multiple rounds of voting for parliament is scheduled to begin Nov. 28, and the supreme military council announced Sunday that the balloting would go ahead, despite days of pitched battles between police and demonstrators in Cairo's Tahrir Square. On Monday the civilian cabinet that the council had appointed to run the country under Prime Minister Essam Sharaf resigned. But neither move addresses the fundamental discontent of the thousands of Egyptians who have gathered in the center of Cairo and other cities, and who threaten to repeat February's revolution.
That's because the military has not agreed to form a new government based on the elections, which will not be completed until early next year. It is trying to curb the new parliament's power over the appointment of an assembly to write a new constitution, while imposing its own overriding "principles" on the new charter. Worst of all, it has postponed a presidential election to an indefinite time late in 2012 or in 2013 — creating the prospect that the military misrule of Egypt will continue for at least another year.
The protesters in Tahrir Square are not seeking radical political solutions. What Egypt's increasingly angry populace wants is what it demanded nine months ago: a transition to genuine democracy and civilian rule. Only a decisive step by the military to answer that imperative, such as the scheduling of an early presidential election, will stabilize the country.

For one of sport's biggest braggarts – a home-schooled hippy turned skiing megastar who rocked the discipline he loved – Bode Miller seemed subdued as he crossed the line in Vancouver. The American had just skied the run of his life in the decisive slalom stage of the Super-Combined event, but when he looked at the clock, there was no hollering or fist-pumping. He breathed deeply and looked to the heavens; exhausted but, above all, relieved. By winning his first Olympic gold medal, Miller had completed one of sport's most remarkable comebacks – and rewritten his place in its annals – months after his career had apparently crashed in a snow cloud of beer and recriminations. "I wanted to win," he said simply in the finish area on Sunday afternoon. "I needed it."
The shiniest addition to Miller's groaning trophy cabinet plants him in skiing's all-time hall of fame. No man has ever won four medals in the alpine skiing events at a single Olympics. Miller now has three, having already bagged bronze and silver in the Downhill and super-G at Vancouver. An almost matchless all-rounder, he is one of only two men who have won medals in four different disciplines. In the twilight of his career – Miller is 32 – the daredevil skier who nearly threw it all away has become a true Olympic great.
But Miller's medals tell only part of a life story that has already spawned an autobiography and a film (expect more to come). It begins in Franconia, a tiny town in New Hampshire's White Mountains, where Samuel Bode Miller's parents Woody and Jo lived in a house without electricity or running water, celebrated the solstice and named their youngest son Genesis Wren Bungo Windrushing Turtleheart.
Miller ran free in the woods around the house and, from the age of two, skied even freer at nearby Cannon Mountain. From the start, he applied himself with a reckless zeal and need for speed that seemed at odds with his log-cabin upbringing. When it was put to him, in a 2006 interview, that winners are more often the products of pushy parents, Miller said: "Those are the kids who burn out and end up being counterculture hippies ... that's sort of the opposite from me." When he was 14, Miller joined a ski academy, where coaches winced at a skiing style that wasn't so much unusual as plain wrong. Miller leaned back on his skis – a mortal sin – to generate speed, but at the expense of control. Arms flailing, skis all over the hill, he was as well-known for his crashes as his wins – and wowed onlookers with his physics-defying ability to stay on his feet. A former teammate called Miller the "Houdini" of recoveries.
But his balls-out, back-seat style, which he refused to change, combined with a superhuman athleticism, gave Miller a hit rate that was high enough, in 1996, to win him a spot on the US ski team. Still, the cowboy in a skinsuit refused to conform to the strictures of professional racing: more likely to be found in the bar than the gym, he horrified coaches by refusing to ski anywhere but at the very edge of control. In Bormio in 2005, when Miller lost a ski 20 seconds into a Super-G event, he risked serious injury by continuing on one ski – because he could. The crowd loved it; the team bigwigs were furious.
In the late Nineties, when Miller turned up at races with the kind of parabolic, shaped skis that were already revolutionising recreational skiing by making it easier to turn, the Alpine school of skiing purists reacted as if he proposed to ride the course on a snowboard. Miller didn't so much attack the mountains as the very orthodoxy of a sport steeped in tradition. But in that respect, too, Miller was successful – shaped skis quickly became the standard.
And then it nearly ended with a massive wipeout and a destroyed knee at the 2001 World Championships in St Anton in Austria. While recovering from surgery, Miller discovered his team had stopped paying his expenses. Unbowed, he returned to his native woods to rehabilitate in a gym that comprised a home-made weights machine, a loaded wheelbarrow, and a unicycle.
It worked; Miller was back on the team in time for the 2002 Olympics at Salt Lake City. Planting a pole in the public consciousness with characteristic aggression, he stomped on the second tier of the podium with silver medals in the Giant Slalom and Combined events. The success turned him into an all-American hero whose raw talent, leading man features and playful, screw-them attitude had magazines like Rolling Stone and Sports Illustrated queueing up to make him the cover boy for a sport that had been crying out for an injection of cool.
For a while, Miller balanced his new celebrity status with the demands of the sport, winning two gold medals at the World Championships in 2003 and a string of World Cup titles in 2004 and 2005. But then, on the eve of the 2006 Olympics in Turin, he started to wobble. Starting to buy in to his own cult, he gave a masterclass in brattishness on the CBS news show 60 Minutes. "If you ever tried to ski while you're wasted," he said. "It's not easy ... it's like driving drunk, only there's no rules about it in ski racing."
Miller did nothing to endear himself to a growing crowd of critics in Turin. Despite promising much and talking the talk (and bad-mouthing teammates), he failed to win anything. But he told reporters he had enjoyed "an awesome two weeks" because he "got to party and socialise at an Olympic level". No sooner had Miller been crowned the king of his sport than he was dethroned by a mob of writers and members of the skiing fraternity who saw his off-slope boozing and apparent on-slope apathy as a violation of the Olympic spirit. For some inside and outside of the US, Miller had also come to symbolise all that was offensive about stateside sporting swagger. They made puns on "Miller Time". One commentator called him "the biggest bust in Olympic history".
Miller deeply resented the backlash, writing in his autobiography: "The role-model Nazis of the left and right, the political- and moral-correctness police who demand that top athletes all behave like the people they wish they'd grown up to be – I say screw them." But if the bad press had shaken Miller, it didn't always show. He continued to win races. By now he had refused to travel with the US team, preferring instead to kick back with a beer in his pimped-out RV. In 2007, he quit to form his own team, for which he would ski as an independent. Sponsors followed and, for a while at least, so did success. He ended the 2008 World Cup season as overall champion.
But last year, Miller started to wobble in a big way. In the worst season of his career, he barely managed a podium finish, let alone a victory. Dogged by injuries, he took an extended break and admitted "the fire goes away after a while". His detractors, whose ranks had neither shrunk nor quietened since 2006, declared him "burned out". Miller had a daughter, Neesyn Dacey, born in 2008, and admitted he was contemplating retirement. It would mean going out with a whimper as probably the best skier never to have won an Olympic gold medal.
But the master of the 80mph recovery refused to fall. Aged 32, and after months out of the sport with an ankle injury he picked up playing volleyball, Miller swallowed his pride. The US team and its most difficult son were reconciled last September. Miller trained hard – his own way – but arrived in Vancouver an underdog. If he was going to succeed, it would come down to the heart and willpower that had become his trademark.
After the downhill stage of the super-combined on Sunday, he was beaten up, exhausted and, worryingly, in seventh place. The awesome Norwegian racer, Aksel Lund Svindal, had a massive lead of almost a second over Miller. Teammates said the American was unable to speak during the lunch break. Gold looked out of reach. But with his cries from his coach of "Come on, Bode, let's go now, kid!", Miller flew out of the gates like a greyhound after a hare, immediately winning back an overall lead in the race of his life. When Svindal straddled a gate, ending his race, Miller knew victory – and that elusive gold medal – was his.
"I feel pretty old," said the new, grown-up, more modest Miller when asked if he could now finally rack his skis. "I don't know what my plan is. Having quit once, I came back for a reason, and this was the reason. I feel good, and when I race like I have here, it's so much fun to do. I'd feel pretty stupid to give up if I could continue." Few would bet against him in tonight's Giant Slalom or the Slalom on Saturday. "Bode Miller is crazy," said a fellow veteran, the Austrian Benjamin Raich. "He is so hard to understand, but I know this: When he is on, he is the perfect skier."

I've been doing this radio thing since the late 80's. Worked primarily in the mid-west, Kansas City, Springfield, MO and IL, Wichita, KS, Topeka, KS and a couple other stops along the way.
The Las Colonias Amphitheater in Grand Junction just released its concert schedule. Check out the shows.
I had to move to Western Colorado to witness my first "rolling coal" event. Recently a white, lifted, custom Ford HD 4-wheel drive was at a light on North Avenue. When the light changed, thick black smoke began to bellow from the large single exhaust pipe coming up from behind the cab.
From the Grand Valley, you're no more than a few hours drive to some of the more beautiful National Parks/Monuments in the nation. In celebration of National Park Week here are five in Colorado and five in neighboring Utah.
Spring is here! As the weather warms now is the time to experience the beauty in this special place called the state of Colorado.
Cops get a bad rep at times. But we know the overwhelming majority are great people who love to serve their communities. Just because a cop may be all business when they pull you over, doesn't mean they don't like to have fun and here's proof.
Spring is here and it's time to get outside. The weather's getting right to move the party outside to the patio. Take a look at Grand Junction's best.
An amazing 67 astronauts have Colorado roots and connections. Three made it to the moon. One walked on the lunar surface. Another was a space pioneer. Yet another, a tragic hero.
The first annual Lazy Man Olympics is in the books. Besides the actual competition itself, the part of the event that most in attendance were talking about was the team names. Yes, we had a winner of that!

Governor, thank you for being with us today.
GOV. MITCH DANIELS (R), INDIANA: Glad to be here.
CROWLEY: Appreciate it. I want to start off talking a little bit about the Republican field which you chose not to join, and ask you to size it up for me. You're watching from afar as most Americans are watching right now. They're not as intensely involved as, say, reporters and...
DANIELS: Maybe further than some of them, yes.
CROWLEY: Who do you think is standing out at this point in the Republican field?
DANIELS: Well, I don't have anything original to say. I think the two governors, Romney and Perry, seem to be getting the most attention and for the moment at least seem to be the dominant personalities in the race.
CROWLEY: I wanted to play you something that Mike Huckabee said about Governor Perry's performance in this past debate.
MIKE HUCKABEE (R), FORMER PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: I think Rick Perry is not prepared for the pressure of the presidential stage yet. Rick Perry has got a struggle ahead of him.
CROWLEY: Now you add to this that The Weekly Standard, a conservative publication, called it almost disqualifying, speaking of Perry's performance in the debates. He seems to be fading partially because running for governor is not the same as running on the national scene.
Do you envision a Republican Party that at this point would pick Rick Perry?
DANIELS: Yes, maybe. I think it's way too early to know or to issue -- pronounce last rites over one performance. There are so many of these -- too many maybe. And so let's -- he hasn't been in it that long. I understand what Governor Huckabee was saying, but I'd cut him a little slack, give him a little time.
CROWLEY: One of the things that you have said over time is that you've been a little disappointed of the things the Republican field has chosen to take up. The things that they're saying. What in particular do you think they're not talking about?
DANIELS: I don't think they're yet talking about the things that the two senators just spoke to, you know, the things that have a lot of zeros attached to them, the ones that are threatening to kill not just an economy but the entire idea of America, the idea of upward mobility from the bottom and tomorrow is better than today.
And so I'm hoping that things will evolve. I'll tell you what's bothering me a little bit, Candy, the president is clearly in very desperate political shape. And it seems more clear every day. And I worry a little bit, ironically, that the Republican field or our nominee might look at that and say, I'll just play it safe, I'll get elected as the default option, you know, he made it worse, I'm not him, vote for me.
And that will be, I think, a huge missed opportunity because there's a clock ticking. This is not a philosophical argument I make in this book or anywhere else, it is arithmetic. And very encouraging, by the way, to hear a guy like Senator Warner speak to it as clearly as he just did. I wish he were president.
And so I just hope...
CROWLEY: There's a little bipartisanship there, a little bit, right? A Republican governor.
DANIELS: It's going to take that. You know, the Brits have a great saying, now that the money has run out we shall have to begin to think. And I just hope that even though the chances of electoral success next year look pretty good to me and better all the time, next year I think should be seized as an opportunity to talk with all our fellow Americans about this common problem.
It threatens us all, left to right, R and D. And I hope our party -- I mean, this president is not going to do it so it has to be our nominee.
CROWLEY: In fact, you said in your book, that debt -- U.S. debt, that's what we're talking about here, is more likely to sink democracy or personal freedom than in previous times when the Soviet nuclear threat was seen as the big danger to democracy.
Just explain that in terms of what happens if we have a debt? Because there is this feeling that, well, debt doesn't actually matter that much, there doesn't seem to be that kind of urgent -- there's politics to it, that's where the politics are right now, but is it where the urgency is?
DANIELS: Well, it needs to be. Because it is a mathematical fact that we are headed for debt levels we cannot sustain. In simple terms...
CROWLEY: Well, what would that mean practically speaking?
DANIELS: In practical terms it would mean that the mortgage payments, just the interest payments that we are making as a federal government, not to mention states and even private citizens, is consuming so much money there is not enough left to hire anybody.
It is consuming so much money on the public side, by the way, that public education will be devastated. And so -- and it means... CROWLEY: So lower money -- higher interest rates for -- on everything, and less money to spend on things we might want to spend on.
DANIELS: Too much money going to the mortgage and not enough to pay the rest of the necessities of life. It is very clear, and, again, it is not ideological in any way, it is very clear that nations that go past a certain point of debt do not recover.
You know, the heart of my concern has to do with the promise of America and we're starting to see that fraying around the edges. And without an America in which people really believe, that even if things are tough today, they are going to be better, and my kids will live better, without a stable, hopeful middle class, we'll lose something even more precious than material well-being, we'll lose the self- governance that we've brought to the world.
CROWLEY: The underlying premise of your book, "Keeping the Republic: Saving America by Trusting Americans," is that Americans will step up to the plate if you just tell them the truth, if you lay it out for them. Who is not telling the American public the truth and what is the truth, as you see it, that we can handle?
DANIELS: Well, the truth is that we just talked about the first -- again, arithmetic fact. It's not a matter of opinion, it's math. Secondly, that we cannot possibly continue on with the safety net programs we have in exactly their current forms.
CROWLEY: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid.
DANIELS: That's right. That's right. We can say to today's and even those entering the program, today's seniors and those entering in the next few years, don't worry about a thing, nothing changes for you, you are good to go, a deal is a deal.
Now, please join with us and let's create new programs starting in the future that mean that the young people who are paying for your retirement have some protection, too. And those programs will have to look different. They will have to stop sending checks to the wealthiest citizens, for instance. But, you know, this is what Mark Warner was talking about and Senator Alexander, and, you know, the sooner people from both sides concentrate on that problem and then all the rest of the grossly excessive federal government spending that we're doing, the sooner we can get on the way to an economic recovery.
CROWLEY: Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, thank you for joining us. The book is "Keeping the Republic." I appreciate your stopping by.
DANIELS: Thank you.

Hello everybody.
We are a corporate IT, which serves several companies in a group. By default, all machines have restrictions to removable storage devices based on USB (recording on CD and DVD drives are also restricted). But there are always demands where users receive permission from the board of directors to gain access to these devices.
For reasons of compliance and information security, we identify the market tools that allow us to know when a user connects a USB drive, and monitor files movement.
Basically we want to monitor when a user:
- Copy any files from a flash drive to a local machine or directory on the network;
- Copy any files from any local machine or place in the network to a flash drive.
Our idea is to register:
- Date and time of connecting the USB device;
- Name of the user/Machine/IP who connected;
- Name of the files accessed and copied, and their paths.
We found some software that do this. But after meeting Spiceworks, I wondered if this could not be a resource to be embedded in the tool.
What do you think?

Bully-Proof Your Kids in Time for School!
Dr. Ronda Beaman explains what parents can do to "bully-proof" their kids for the new school year.
The topic of bullying has been getting a lot of press lately. In fact, bullying has become such a hot topic that there's been a recent nationwide crackdown on bullying. But is the anti-bullying movement truly working? Are your kids going to have a run-in with a bully this school year?
There's a lot of lip service paid to the notion that schools need stringent anti-bullying policies, and many districts across the country have implemented strong regulations designed to curb bullying behavior, but the truth of the matter is that bullies can be clever – and bullying hasn't disappeared;
The first step to bully-proofing your grade schooler, teen, or tween is communication. Your kids need to feel that they can come to you – and to other trusted adults – any time they are in an uncomfortable situation with another kid (or kids) at school. Talk to them! Provide resources for them. Discuss strategies to help them defuse a bullying situation, encourage them to share their concerns and feelings, and most importantly …
… boost their confidence! Kids with high self-esteem are more likely to stand up to bullies and less likely to suffer an emotional toll at the hands of mean kids. Teach your kids to look people in the eye, stand up straight (there's a lot to be said for confident body language!), use an assertive tone of voice, and most of all, to believe in themselves! A confident kid is less like to end up with a "bully-y eye" on his or her back.
Arming your kids with another tool in the anti-bullying arsenal with not only help deter a bully, but also help pave the way to becoming an emotionally savvy adult. And that tool is comprehending a bully's motivation. What makes bullies tick? The answer is really pretty simple. Most bullies are compensating for their own feelings of insecurity or inadequacy. Pushing others around makes bullies feel bigger than someone else. Once your child understands how small a bully really is on the inside, it can take a lot of the fear out of a confrontation. Humanizing an adversary can do wonders for helping a child see a more level playing field.
But let's say that a bully does appear on the scene this school year. What now? Obviously, the best possibility would be to circumvent the situation entirely. Of course, it's not always possible to avoid a bully, but sometimes – especially in the event of the new and alarming trend toward cyber bullying – cutting off the bully's access to your child will leave that bully with nowhere to go. If avoiding isn't possible, suggest trying to ignore the bully's behavior. Some (but not all) bullies will tire of taunting a kid who doesn't react.
Of course, sometimes circumventing the bully doesn't work. Your child is already a target, so he needs to figure out how to counteract the bully's behavior. Consider coaching your kids to outwit the bully by responding to cruelty with kindness,or a simple silly comeback ,"You're right, I am a wimp!"
All of the strategies I've outlined will help you get your kids feel in control when faced with bullies at school this year. Armed with the confidence you've inspired in them and the comfort of knowing they can talk to you about their school experiences, coupled with an understanding of why bullies pick on other kids and a pocketful of strategies to avoid or thwart bullying behavior your kids' book bag of school supplies is ready!
And just think, since these strategies work on the school bus and in the corridors at school, you may be helping your kids develop lifelong bully-proofing!
